going back to the corner where i first saw you

I won't be giving any major spoilers, don't worry.
 
I haven't even been watching the last season of GG tbh, but I always knew they would reveal the identity of Gossip Girl in the last episode. It was quite unexpected for me, but yeah. I've watched the very first episode of the last season so far and it's just standard GG really, crazy plotlines, beautifully expensive clothes, hot guys, hot girls.
 
This set sucks

HEY POLYVORE.
 
I've been away so long I actually don't even know how to make sets any more, I apologise for this, haha. I hope at least one person gets the reference to VS with the wings and underwear (@cestmiriam - Mir help me out here! :) ).
 
I've been super busy with university and everything, which I'm LOVING btw, it's so cool making a whole bunch of new friends and having fun and slacking off lectures. Super hard work as well of course, but I expected that.
 
The new 1D Take Me Home is actual perfection. I'm not a die hard fan, I mean, I liked Up All Night, there were some decent songs on that, but seriously Take Me Home is THE BEST. They certainly do not have 2nd album syndrome. Like it's one of the few albums I can listen straight through (on the list with Science And Faith by The Script, + by Ed Sheeran and The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses).
 
Miranda Kerr is seriously hot. As always.
 
I watched 21 Jump Street recently. NEW FAVOURITE MOVIE. I was never a huge one for Channing Tatum but him and Jonah Hill are fricking hilarious in this! "F-ck youuu, science." Best. Line. Ever.
 
I also watched Crazy Stupid Love for the first time. I know this is exactly what they were going for, but my god does Ryan Gosling look hot. "Are you Steve Jobs? Are you the billionaire owner of Apple computers?". Hahaaaaaa.
 
I saw Breaking Dawn Part 2 yesterday. It was surprisingly good I thought! It made me want to read the books again *she shamefully admits*. The shock ending was excellently done I thought. I won't spoil it though.
 
I had a bunch of stuff to say or mention but as per usual I've forgotten it all lol.
 
This set is too summery.

50 Theme British Celebrity Challenge: Audrey Hepburn
 
Thought I should finally finish the challenge haha.
 
This set is awful.

Well hello there strangers!
 
I didn't intentionally take a break from Polyvore. I just didn't feel like making sets for a while and was really uninspired. I was still on Tumblr, reflagging away, but just couldn't be bothered making sets, although I did come on Polyvore to check out certain people's new sets. But today I just felt in the mood to make a set again, so this is really just a mish mash of what's in my head at the moment.
 
A part of my brain always contains Francisco Lachowski. Of course.
 
I'm also really obsessed with Coldplay again. Chris Martin's voice is so amazing, that rock edge to it is beautiful. It's probably because I went and bought the actual album and have the CD for my car, usually I get my music online. Literally, Mylo Xyloto does not have a bad song. Everyone's freaking out cause they did a collab with Rihanna for Princess of China but I actually like the other songs much better. I'm not really a fan of Rihanna, per se. I also love The Script of course, and now that Danny O'Donoghue is one of the coaches on The Voice UK, everyone's obsessed with them again, although most of these new people who claim to love Danny and The Script actually only know one of their songs, The Man Who Can't Be Moved. That's one of my pet hates, when people claim to LOVE someone or something and be the biggest fan, but actually only know really mainstream stuff about it. I feel like saying, d'you wanna name a couple more songs by them then? It's the same with One Direction, now that they've gone over to USA and Australia. Anyway, mini rant over.
 
I actually went to Paris, France a few weeks ago with my two friends, it was AMAZING. It wasn't at all how we imagined it, for instance, we thought that the Eiffel Tower would be surrounded by hotels, city, houses and it would be in the centre of Paris sort of. But in reality it's just the tower, a big park, and the river, with a few buildings around it. Romcoms and other films are probably responsible for our warped idea of it, haha. But it was still really pretty and French-looking, if you know what I mean? Haha, I sound so stupid. On the first day, I actually looked said out loud, "Wow...it's so French!" and my friend just looked at me funny and said, "What, France?". LOL. Anyway, we climbed the first two stages of the Eiffel Tower (legs had such a massive work out that day!) and then got the lift to the summit, it was amazing. We didn't actually get to see it at night, since our hotel was so far from it, but even in the day it was pretty cool. We also went to Disneyland Paris, it was my first Disney experience ever, and my two friends had been to Florida when they were younger, but I loved it, everyone just turns into big kids when they're there, haha. And it was the 20th anniversary of it opening so they did a huge parade through the streets of all the mainstream characters, it was so cute, you couldn't help but stop and watch it :) On one of the days we also went to Champs Elysees (didn't go up the Arc de Triomph though) and went in some of the shops we don't have here in England. There was a HUGE Sephora shop, we spent like an hour in there. My friend bought some makeup, but they also just experimented on me - by the time we left I had one eye with blue mascara and eyeshadow, the other was brown, more makeup on my cheeks, lipgloss...the lot! :D We also went to Laduree, but didn't buy any macaroons because they were super expensive and by this time we were low on money cause it was the last day, haha. I bought a pack of like 12 strawberry marshmallows for like 7 euros :O We also went in Louis Vuitton, it was hugeeee. Me and one of my friends were like wowww at everything, like even the ugliest thing in there was pretty cool, just in awe of it all (and the prices!) but my other friend wasn't so impressed, she hated it, lol. My friend actually took her laptop and some DVDs so we usually stayed up all night watching films. We watched Bruno, I think I am mentally scarred, lol, but still a good laugh. Also saw Confessions of a Shopaholic for the first time, it's really a classic chick flick to be honest, but still really cute, on my top ten. HUGH DANCY HELLO THERE. I remember making a set for a challenge on Polyvore a while back, and one of them was Hugh Dancy, and in the notes I said something along the lines of, I don't think he's that good looking. I think I must have been blind that day, my god, he is beautiful. He sort of did the whole Robert Pattinson look, before Robert Pattinson. :D
 
I would definitely recommend Paris as a little trip, but make sure you know little bits of the language, I was sort of the interpreter of the group cause I did French GCSE and got A*, but nothing past that :D I could understand bits, but we actually relied on people to speak bits of English as well.
 
ALSO. I watched the Hunger Games. I really loved the film, it's one of my top ten (I really have to make an actual list of top ten films at some point). I didn't really take much notice of Jennifer Lawrence as an actress before but my god, she is stunning. Me and best friend were saying like if we wore our hair in a braid then hunted and ran through the woods we'd look awful, but she looks amazing haha. I loved her Capitol dresses and her eyeliner at the end was so pretty. Josh Hutcherson really used to annoy me before if I'm honest, but as Peeta he was pretty cool, he's growing on me. I liked Liam Hemsworth as well, I think if I'm going to be Team Peeta or Team Gale, at the moment I'm swaying towards Gale. But I haven't actually read the books yet, I'm in the process of reading The Hunger Games currently, so my opinion may change.
 
I also got a new Macbook Pro for my birthday, wooo.
 
Oh and this song. We Are Young, by fun. New favourite band, I think? LOVE IT.
 
Anyway, I'll stop gabbing now, and go eat something.

Good Life - OneRepublic. One of the best songs EVER.
 
Has anyone seen the new One Direction video for One Thing? It's so goddamn cute! I liked WMYB, but Gotta Be You was disappointing, it was like the boys were tryna be Westlife or something, what with all the distant looks, and slowed down montages, etc etc. But this, with all the dance moves and the random silly stuff, it is just the best video to show off their personalities, I adore it! Wouldn't it be cool to be one of the girls in the background of the video? I wish I was in Trafalgar Square when they performed.

FRANCISCO.

Beautiful Soul - Jesse McCartney! Remember this song that we all used to bum out to?! :D
 
Ahhhh, Francisco is so beautiful, honestly, every time I see a new picture of him, I'm just like, DROOL, haha. But this set is a bit blehh, I think I'll stick to the other layout.

50 Cool People | 19. Kate Moss
 
Kate is the ultimate model, for me. Yes, she's had all the scandals and drugs and weight concerns and all but she still comes through and brings some hella style to these streets. She defines rocker chic in my opinion, with a high fashion edge. And her cheekbones - I won't start on them because as you all know by now, defined cheekbones are my THING.
 
I adore Kate Moss. xx
