A cute trio from Chicago are making great waves on one of my favourite websites Etsy! They write cute sayings, profound phrases and killer words on deflated balloons and sell them off. Now whilst most might not think this is "art" it's a greta way to showcase some of your favourite sayings or your favourite song lyrics. Check out their store at etsy.com/inflateddefalted.

27 club


Today is Kurt Cobain's birthday. He would have been 45 years old but as we all know was cut down in the worst and self inflicted way. He then joined the 27 club along with Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, Jimmy Hendrix and Heath Ledger a confronting phenomeon. Fronting the biggest 90's grunge band of all time, Kurt came from a small town just outside Seattle in the southwest of America. He made rockstar status after dropping out of school all whilst playing guitar to keep himself out of "trouble". Nirvana will be forever as will his memory.

I'll leave it to the words of his mother Wendy O'Connor who spoke of Kurt's death after he joked about joining the 27 club "Now he's gone and joined that stupid club, I told him not to join that stupid club."

Happy birthday.

So I thought I would share a few purchases I have made of late. Really into leopard print having said that I have been obsessed with resembling a cat like creature for soemtime now. Neon Hart is doing some amazing things and I'm really into this sheer leopard print maix which goes with everything and is my true love. I have taken up painting my nails some crazy bright colours on the weekend due to my new job which shock horror requires me to wear naked nails... I have to say its a struggle but I have come accustomed to a Friday night ritual of coming home a painting my nails instantly that and cheating wearing a nude colour during the week. I'm not really inot this whole regulation thing but I'm trying to be a good worker... Blah. Either way this weekends colour is for sure going to be this newly purchased Australis colour in Aqua. Just four more days...

Will you be my valentine?


A heart for my lovers, hope y'all have a love filled day!
