Do you still feel younger than you thought you would by now

Hey everyone,

 

Sorry for the slightly melancholic title, it was just too appropriate not to use. Its a lyric from my favourite Arctic Monkeys song, of whom we will both be seeing come Saturday at Finsbury Park (the thought of Alex Turner within reach is a little too much to handle), and also, today was our last of sixth form ever, and I definitely feel too young to be leaving my school and friends of seven years behind. On a less sad note we still have prom to look forward to after exams so we'll be seeing everyone again very soon :)

 

The sunny weather spell is not so sunny anymore but we are hoping it will brighten up again so we can take more summery outfit photos like this one!

 

Have a great week!

 

Loads of love,

Hey all!!

What a beautiful weekend it's been, well in the UK anyway :) We've both been pretty much housebound due to revision, which always kills the mood, but we still both get out into the garden to attempt to catch some rays.

It's our last week of school this week, which bring some form of joy, but also so much sadness as we will both miss it so much, oh yeah and means that exams are too close now. We both turned up to school in again accidentally coordinating outfits. I am loving the bohemian/hippy/festival look at the moment and have bagged myself numerous pairs of comfy harem pants to wear at Benicassim this year.  We styled the harem style trousers, these are both fairly smart and tapered as harems go, with crop tops. This would probably be the only rule, don't wear a severely oversized tshirt with these trousers or it will probably swamp you.

Anyway, we're both really excited for the last day as it's a tradition that the whole year dresses up in their old school uniform, to reminisce over the good old days. Also, we're both so terrible at procrastinating and always end up looking at prom hair and make up tutorials on Youtube, have you guys got any good ideas???

Speak to you soon, Jess xxx

Hey all,

So we managed to sneakily snap these photos in a rare glimpse of sun in-between torrential downpours today! We are ploughing though our second week of sixth form ever (ekk). We have both been at our school for the full seven years so the thought of leaving is both exciting and slightly terrifying. Well if I don't get into uni I am definitely going to go searching for a job which involves food (read:cakes) as after English lit and art it is up there with my main passions in life ;)
 

Good luck to everyone doing exams, we will both be finished ours in just over a month so freedom is in sight finally!

  

Did anyone else watch Eurovision on the weekend? It is definitely my favourite guilty pleasure, although it doesn't come as a surprise considering I love anything slightly cheesy or musical, so the combination of the two is a winner for me!

Loads of love, Paloma

Hi there!

Another apology for lack of posts, they seem to be getting quite regular :(

We've both been knuckling down to revise over the last month, but by the 16th of June, it'll be over for both of us, we cannot wait!

We've also been organising our joint 18th, although Paloma's Birthday in August, and mine was in April, we had to have a party together.

If you've read our blog for a little while, you'll be able to see that we love fancy dress and spend weeks in prep for our costumes. After much deliberating, we decided on a Fairytale theme, this includes Disney, Hans Christian Anderson tales and Grimm Brothers tales! It sounds like an 8th party not an 18th.

Today we took a break from revision to start getting our costumes together. Paloma is going as Esmerelda from The Hunchback of Notredame and I'm going as Thumbelina (the traditional character, not the disney, they ruined that for me)

What would you guys go as?

Lots of love, Jess xxx

Hey all!

 

Long time no speak, sorry for our absence it was completely unintentional but as you guys know all too well exam season is fast approaching so we are full to the brim with work. On a brighter note, if exam time is coming then that means summer holidays are not too far off either, which means sun, sea and festivals!

 

The New Paolo Nutini album, Caustic Love has now taken a coveted place on my soundtrack for summer (how would I live without the beauty that is spotify?!) But seriously, if you haven't already grab yourself a copy, I got it for Jess for her birthday and from what I can tell- unless she is a fabulous liar- she loves it just as much as I do!

 

Oh and on that note, a Happy Belated birthday Jess!

 

Lots of love, Paloma xxx

Hey Guys,

Sorry for the delay in posts, we've both been ill recently so haven't had a chance to take any snaps. Also, i'm in rehearsals for my drama A2 practical examination which is on Thursday, therefore have been roaming around in my trackies a lot, which doesn't blog too well.

The sun came out again today, which was a lovely change from chilly and humid weather. We both got our dresses out again, Paloma's teamed with a leather jacket - a smart move to layer when you live in London. I on the other hand went full on summer and dragged out the sunglasses which haven't seen a blog post yet - I love raiding my mum's wardrobe :)

Some exciting news for us, we have got the contract through for our prom! It's all sorted, now all we need is for everyone to pay up and start committing to it! We are both so excited to get dressed up, typical girls.

I hope you're all well,

Jess xxx

 P.S - We've been invited to lots of blogging events in the Easter hols, keep checking the blog for future posts.

We should take a trip to the reservoir

Hey you lovely lot,

So time for a major catch up, this past week has been super busy for both me and Jess! This time last week I was on my way back from Bristol after a pop in visit to see my sister and watch Metronomy live. They were incredible, and even though the result of the trip was a fluey cold for me (thanks sis) it was definitely worth it. Check out their new album, Love Letters if you are looking for some new summery music! Whenever I listen to it I get so excited for summer! The day after I was in Exeter, exploring the university, which was absolutely beautiful! And the High-Street too was amazing, which as you know is very important to me ;)

Lots of love.
