This is the outfit I wore today to school, I made the terrible mistake of going all spruced up yesterday, with jewellery, frilly socks, the whole shebang, and nearly died of heatstroke (forgive me for my dramatics) so today I kept it minimal to a fault, some people might find it boring but I quite like it.
I'm so bummed that the holidays are over, wish they were a bit longer, but on the bright side this term only lasts a month and a half, so it will hopefully go by quickly.
I enjoy going to school but I'm anxious to start uni next year so the faster this school year ends the better, I'll miss my friends, but almost everyone is going to Lisbon for uni anyways, and it's not like it's a big country.

Is there a country where the temperature is 17º C all year 'round? Because if there is, I'm moving there.

Este é o conjunto que vesti hoje para as aulas, cometi o terrivel erro de it toda arranjada ontem, acessórios, meias de folhos, enfim a trabalha toda, e quase ia morrendo de insolação (desculpem o dramatismo), por isso hoje mantive as coisas simples, até demais, algumas pessoas podem achar aborrecido, mas eu até gosto.

Tenho tanta pena que as férias tenham acabado, gostava que tivessem sido maiores, mas pelo menos este perido só dura mês e meio, por isso vai passar depressa.

Gosto de ir para a escola, mas estou anciosa para começar a Universidade para o ano, portanto quanto mais depressa este ano escolar acabar melhor. Vou ter saudades dos meus amigos, mas o país não é propriamente grande, e de qualquer maneira quase toda a gente vai estudar para Lisboa.

Há algum país onde a temperatuda média seja 17º o ano todo? Porque se houver mudo-me para lá.

In case you're wondering, that gorgeous blonde wearing the gaultier dress is actually male top model Andrej Pejic.

 To be perfectly honest I'm not sure how I feel about this outfit, I mean, I like it, I just don't think it looks that good on me, maybe it's the horizontal stripes, they broaden my figure a tad more than what I'd like. Also, straight-ish hair, even though my unruly wavey mane would probably look better with this ensemble, meh to hell with it.
I'm absolutely hooked on Hell's Kitchen, I think it's the best reality show I've ever seen, also chef Ramsay's accent is to die for, the weird thing is that I hate cooking, other than toast my culinary abilities are null. I'm definitely not housewife material...not that I am complaining.

Para ser sincera não tenho a certeza do que acho deste conjunto, gosto dele, mas ao mesmo tempo acho que não me fica bem, talvez sejam as listras horizontais, tornam-me mais larga do que gostaria. Além disso, cabelo mais ou menos liso, apesar de achar que a minha trunfa cheia de ondas provavelmente ficava melhor com este conjunto, meh que se lixe.

Estou absolutamente viciada em Hell's Kitchen, acho que é o melhor reality show que alguma vez vi, já para não dizer que o sotaque do chef Ramsey é maravilhoso, o estranho é que odeio cozinhar, para além de tostas as minhas habilidades culinárias são nulas. Definitivamente não sou uma boa dona de casa...não que me esteja a queixar.

Bye

Thankfully the weather was much nicer today, it even rained! I didn't do much today, just run some errands and other than that stayed home reading (my favourite guilty pleasure),  and playing game boy colour, I'm a bit of a nerd, one of my favourite genres is sci-fi, and I'm obsessed with Torchwood, crappy special FX and all!

Felizmente o tempo esteve muito melhor hoje, até choveu! Não fiz grande coisa o dia todo, fiquei em casa a ler e a jogar game boy colour. Sou um bocado nerd, um dos meus generos favoritos é ficcão científica e sou obcecada por Torchwood, mesmo com efeitos especiais terríveis.

It was far too hot outside for this outfit, but I didn't feel like changing so I went trough the day wearing it. How I regret it! It's barely spring and already the weather is scorching hot, I can tell it's going to be a miserable summer.
My best friend left today for Germany and Austria for the holidays so I slept over at her house yesterday, we ate far too many donuts, stayed up late keeping up with the newest gossip, and watching old seasons of How I met your mum, the usual. Should have taken some pictures, but then again, maybe not.

Esteve demasiado calor hoje para usar este conjunto, mas como não me apeteceu trocar de roupa, usei-o o dia todo, arrependo-me redondamente! A primavera mal começou e já faz um calor infernal, estou a ver que o verão vai ser horrível.

A minha melhor amiga partiu hoje de férias para a Alemanha e Aústria por isso dormi ontem na casa dela, comemos demasiados donuts e ficámos acordadas até tarde a manter a cusquice em dia e a ver temporadas antigas de Foi assim que aconteceu. Devia ter tirado algumas fotos, mas pensando bem, talvez não.

Hope you all have a lovely Friday

I'm not a movie critic, in fact I don't even appreciate movies all that much. For me they are mostly cheap thrills, when compared to books, I like some more than others but all in all they only serve purpose as long as they entertain me, but sometimes along comes a movie, or a couple of movies, that I truly enjoy, these movies are usually underrated and under appreciated which really bothers me, I want the things I love to be valued, and their quality assessed by many.
So I decided to share with you two of my favourite films, and these ones in particular, hold interest for the time period they portray, namely the 70's and 80's.

I love the fashion of that time, (not to mention the music, I blame my father for being nostalgic and keeping all of his records), the clothes were just so bold, the make-up outrageous, and everyone looked so androgynous, it made for some pretty crazy looks I can't help to love, even if I wouldn't dare to wear half of them. I think people back then were a lot more fashion forward, they played with colours, patterns and textures and didn't give a rat's ass about what everyone else thought of them. In a sense I think that's what I like so much about both these movies, the sense of freedom and irreverence, a certain apathy for everything and society and its norms in particular.

Velvet Goldmine I watched a few years ago, and I was taken by it from the very beginning, mainly because it starts with a young Oscar Wilde saying he wants to be a "pop idol" and in someways that's exactly what he was, a pop idol of literature, the very first one! After that bold statement there was no turning back, I knew I was gonna love this film.

 Brian Slade when he was a mod, before stardom as the glam rock king (those shoeeeeees, yes please)

 Curt Wild, and his amazing leopard jacket

 It's about David Bowie and Iggy Pop, but they decided do call them Brian Slade and Curt Wild instead. The cast is absolutely amazing, Johnathan Rhys Meyers as Slade, Toni Collete as Mandy Slade, Ewan McGregor as Curt Wilde and Christian Bale as Arthur Stuart. I won't summarise the movie, you'll find perfectly decent summaries if you google it, I'll just say it's amazing and you'll regret it if you don't watch it, besides, the soundtrack is absolutely gorgeous and Rhys Meyers sings most of the songs, seeing as the film is a musical, that shouldn't be very surprising, I just didn't know he sang, he apparently does...

 And people wonder why I don't find Lady Gaga amazing...

Worried about the boy I saw a few weeks ago, and it tells the story of Boy George, lead singer of Culture Club and solo performer once the band broke up. I love Culture Club, and I think my dad collected all of the records they ever produced, he doesn't want to admit it but he had a major crush on Boy George back in the 80's, but then again who didn't?
Douglas Booth, who plays Boy George is simply amazing, he really managed to capture the essence of the character and the era.
Freddie Fox who plays Marilyn ( a transvestite and Marilyn Monroe impersonator, also one of the Boy's best friends) was also amazing and I loved his character to pieces, she had some of the outfits I loved the most.

Gorgeous Marilyn, I love the whole outfit, and I need that goth waist belt now

   I love his make up, his hair and every bloody thing!

That's all for now, this was supposed to be a simple inspiration post, but as always I got carried away, still hope you enjoyed it...
