FRIDAYPART 2
British Socialite Peaches Geldof has opened up her home to Theselby.com. She shares her home with two roommates, though I do find it strange that she doesn't live with her Husband
Max Drummy. So far this union has lasted a lot longer then I expected...time will tell. I've always had a slight
fascination with
Peaches, mainly because she never seems happy and there's always a depressed air about her that doesn't seem to match her style.



I really dislike that tattoo, it runs nearly the whole length of her body. I wouldn't have a problem with that if I didn't find it ugly. Most of her tats are not my taste, I must prefer
Kelly Osbourne's & Sienna Millers (I actually got one identical to hers).

Is that plaid scarf from
Topshop? It looks very similar to the one I got in London (See below).


Peaches in 3.1 Philip Lim and Emma Watson in Flare Magazine (Canada). I really like the combination of soft and hard on Emma.

The pattern of the dress and skirt remind me a lot of the
Thakoon dress
Michelle Obama has on. As much as I like
Thakoon's designs, I also find that he tends to rip off bunch of designers and throw it all on the runway. He works it out, so it's okay with me.

I definitely prefer her as a blonde to a brunette.






That first outfit reminds me of something
Mischa Barton wore in London last year when she was going through her cowboy rocker phase.



PEACHES AND CORY KENNEDY
I've heard and read pretty much nothing but bad things about these two girls so I guess they deserve each other. Apart from style, nobody likes a mean girl.




PEACHES AND CORY IN NYLON

I bought this headband the other day at Urban Behaviour, and then when I was doing research for this post I noticed that Peaches pretty much had the identical one. So if you live in Canada, go get your hands on it it retails for 10.50CAD. (See mine below)
PEACHES ON THE
RUNWAY FOR PPQ
Who's idea was this? She's a terrible model! I think this was done on purpose just to butcher her, her hair doesn't even look slicked back properly.
Somebody is having a nice laugh...
Rihannaalso wore the same dress earlier this year.

PEACHES AND PIXIE GELDOF
PIXIE GELDOF
I love this cover of Pixie in the Miu Miu dress, she's channeling her late mother
Paula Yates (R).



Personally I find Pixie's style much more inspirational then Peaches.

CHRISTMAS
I took this picture of Parliament (Our version of Big Ben (Westminster) / the White House etc) while walking home the other day. I live downtown so it's convinent because of the current bus strike.
http://www.fireottawabusdrivers.com/ thank you for a Merry freezing Christmas!
So Christmas blew in and left just as quickly and this was the aftermath...
I decided that I wanted all my birthday and Christmas presents at the same time.

I got the knew retro
Nike's i've been eying in the display window for the longest time. I don't think this picture really does them justice. If you are looking for something similar, keep in mind this is a Men's shoe I just got a smaller size.


I got
Influence, yay! I haven't really gotten a chance to sit down and read it. I also got the Guiness book of records to add to my collection.


Finally a new blow dryer, I've been in need of this for ages. I've not sure about that diffuser thing, isn't it for people with long curly hair? I have no use for it anyway.

I mentioned to my BF when we were at the art store how much I use to love paint by numbers, I had no idea he would take it so literally. What a fun gift, I've already started on one, but it's a lot more complicated than I remembered.
Beret & Umbrella from H & M
My boyfriend got this from his mom, we were skyping with the fam in Australia. It was cool they opened the gifts we had sent them in front of us. I felt really nervous, I've never been on Cam this way, and I haven't seen them in so long.

I got a bunch of sewing stuff at stocking stuffers, since I plan on getting back to it.
Birthday gift from my mother, a lovely brand new sewing machine. now I have to figure out how to work it. I'm so use to sewing by hand...

My friend from Poland that I met in Europe sent me this calendar. Now I can can brush up on my Polish.
The best gift of all that I got from my boyfriend was a brand new laptop. I was so use to using the beat up old crappy one that it was a bit strange to make the transfer to something so fancy with such a large screen (17"). Part of me didn't want to let go, but it was time. I took a full day to copy all my files etc accross...thank God he's tech savy.

I also got a printer (scanner, photocopier), I haven't had one of those in like 7 years!

After opening our gifts, we sat down for The Queens message. I never normally listen to this stuff, but it's worth it for a few fleeing shots of the hottest red head on earth, my darling
Prince Harry. I guess this stuff is only broadcasted in commonwealth countires so I'm sharing it with America.




Oh
William has just gone down ten points for me, first he's balding and now the beard? Oh Well
RANDOM PURCHASES
I really wanted a leopard scarf, so when I spotted this at
Wal-Mart the other day for 5$ I bought it. But than...

I saw this absolutely gorgeous one at
Le Chateau, I just had to have it...It looks very similar to
Keira's except I'm sure her's is
Louis Vuitton.


I got this supersize tank at
American Apparel, I think it will look amazig in the summer and at the beach.

I can't believe I bought this locally, it's so rare that I get stuff in Ottawa, but
Urban Behaviour has been turning out some really cute pieces. I love this shift dress, I wore it out to dinner on my birthday.

I bought this really cute top (well more like a long dress) from fellow blogger
Ediot on
Etsy. She's personalized it herself, it's really cute, but verylong on me. It's definitely one for the summer.

I also got this really
nice Marc Jacobs sweater/jacket for my birthday, it's sooo cozy.

I wasn't really planning on spending, since I've been uber generious this year which had dented my wallet, but I had to have this top when I saw it at Arizia the other day.

Really good bargains at Old Navy, but then again when is their not? These long sleeved tops were only 5.99CAD each. Bargain!
TODAY'S SONG:
Lights - Drive my Soul
I've featured this song before by Canadian artist Lights, but now I'm posting the video because it is so cute. You might recognize it, because it was used in an Old Navy commercial. Enjoy!
