The Future is for Cars 2013

admin — Wed, 22 Feb 2012 20:21:37 +0000

Let’s take a moment to look at what all is going on in the automotive industry. Many of the large companies are sticking with global designs that are suppose to appeal to the masses and by sharing the technology you have a lower price of production for cars 2013 as well as lower price for repair parts that can be bought all over the world. It is kind of like the Volkswagen Beetle that shared the same design for years and was sold all over the world. Today we see that these companies are trying to abide by all the different laws of safety, emissions, appeal, efficiency and several other factors and because of that all the savings has now gone out the window. The problem lies in the fact that we are going through a global economic slowdown that is sucking away everyone’s savings and there for giving us less to spend a fewer of us with good credit after our homes are foreclosed on. So we have less money and higher priced cars and then add to the mix that our government is for stricter emissions laws and more efficiency and because of that we see more money going into research and development. With more and more companies doing so we will see more combustible engines that can churn out forty plus miles per gallon on a regular basis but then again we will be paying for it. So look for the cars 2013 model tohave a nice hefty price tag.

Sweets For My Sweet.

Best damn package I have ever opened. Ever. This might be boring/amusing for my American readers but after a lifetime of watching American cartoons and TV shows and hearing about all the American candy mentioned in them it became a mini life mission of mine to taste as many of those sweet treats as possible. So this week I put my plan into motion and ordered a bunch of stuff from The Stateside Candy Co. I literally spent an hour browsing the site and planning what to buy. They also sell British candy(great logo design) so everyone the world over can taste the delights of Werther’s Originals, Chewits, Wham bars and Poppets. Yum.

They also sell Prezel Flipz which made me so happy I nearly was reduced to tears, they used to sell these salty/chocolatey treats in the UK years ago but they discontinued them (surely I wasnt the only one buying them!) so I of course bought a family size bag!

Less food in my next post and more fashion, I promise!

What I got:- Swedish Fish, Pretzel Flipz, Cheetos, Cherry Twizzler’s, Junior Mint’s, Cherry Heads, Reeses Whipps bar, A Strawberry Cow Tale’s bar, Reeses Big Cup, Peanut Butter M&Ms (omg!), Blair’s Death Rain potato chips, Oreo Cakesters (like Oreos but made of cake!) and a Cherry AirHeads bar.

The first outing for the ‘Zoe‘ boots, I enjoyed being freakishly tall for the day but at the end of an unplanned shopping trip my dogs were barking. Also I’m not sure how well I would have fared if I didn’t have the arm of the boy to clutch on to. I desperately need a new medium sized day bag, this is the only one I own as I seem to either gravitate toward impossibly big bags or clutch bags and not much in between. I need something moderatly sized and easy to carry but pretty for the old eyeballs. I’m on the prowl.

Jacket:- Primark (I added the gold studs), Dress:- Zara, Bag:- H&M, Boots:- Sam Edelman.

A post of new things! As I mentioned in a previous post I have been buying a lot of vintage recently and this sequined number is one of my newest pieces, I love the pale spearmint colour. Also these jeans are the first pair I have bought in around 3 years that have not been skinny or maxi flares and I gotta say I’m loving the comfort of the boyfriend jean. These purple suede Steve Madden shoesare the most uncomfortable but amazingly gorgeous shoes I have bought in a long time.

I’m most excited about my new watch which was a gift from the boy. I have had my eye on this gold Michael Kors for years and I squealed with joy when it was finally on my wrist where it belongs! I adore the chunky boyish shape and layering it with braclets or wearing it solo. It weighs a ton!

Sequin Top:- Vintage, Jeans:- Warehouse, Shoes:- Steve Madden, Watch:- Michael Kors

I’m currently reading/oggling Kate Moss: Style so I have a bit of Kate fever. If you are a Kate fan or you like her look I seriously recommend it, loads of info about where she got those key Kate pieces that everyone knows and some juicy gossip about her relationships (especially Johnny!). Also due to the book I have been desperatly hunting down a Union Jack jumper but still no luck, if anyone has seen one please point me in the right direction!

Planning my summer holiday already and I must say Anthony Vaccarello’s SS10 collection would look pretty epic on the beach! I love super strappy swimwear, just watch out for crazy tan lines! Planning to stay in a cottage in France for my birthday and probably back to Greece this summer, maybe Kefalonia this time. Anyone going anywhere interesting this summer?

Hi guys, sorry about the lack of posts after crazy amounts of Uni work, a bizarre family Christmas and the seemingly non-stop snow (all the UK people will know what I’m talking about!) blogging has taken a bit of a back seat. Lets try and rectify this shall we?! Just a mini update post today to ease me back into the swing of things.

As you can see I FINALLY got the Sam Edelman boots that I have lusted over for the past two years! The boy got me them for Christmas (yeay!) and although I’m sure nobody cares about them anymore I still adore them! I have so much new stuff that I need to show you guys, I have bought tons of new stuff since I last blogged and alot of it is vintage stuff which I actually stopped buying for a while.

My hair is no longer auburn (sorry to the people who really liked it!) I’m now a kind of blondette I suppose but I’m seriously going to be bald if I dont stop colouring it! I’ll do a propper post sometime this coming week but for now I leave you with a photo of some of the stuff in my wardrobe (notice the constellation print Zara tee woohoo!).x

p.s. Blogger seems to have removed the spellcheck button so this is probably riddled with spelling mistakes, my bad!
