New Blog!

Hello everyone!
I have recently started a new blog called skinny-loves.blogspot.com. This new blog is a bit nerdy and contains anything that I thought was worth sharing. Because I have just started this blog out, I am going to be trying to focus most of my attentions on it. Therefore, please excuse me if I don't post on here for a while. Feel free to check out my other blog and comment below for any ideas that you guys might have for posts that I can do.

Hear me out

Before you guys start to get at me for liking Twilight, I am NOT one of those annoying obsessives. However, I do have a slight soft spot for the teenage girl magnet that is Robert Pattinson. He is my favourite type of actor: uncomfortable, private and ignorant to the fact that he is a beautiful human being. Too many Hollywood actors and actresses are sucked into being  'perfect' and forget who they are.

My liking for Pattinson was greatly magnified when I heard that he was a musician. I looked him up on MySpace Music and listened to 'Let Me Sign', written by Marcus Foster and Bobby Long. I was blown away by his voice. It is so deep and soulful, completely the opposite to nowadays' false, computer-generated pop robots that I detest so much. Before I thought he was okay, but now he seems much deeper and more intriguing. Please give it a listen and tell me what you think.

I have high hopes for this man. He may not be everyone's cup of tea, but so far I am loving it. See you soon!

Something a Little Bit Different...

Today I decided to do something a little bit edgy, and different from my usual things. I was slightly bored of my everyday look and was inspired to create this rockier set by a pair of boots that my friend showed me in a shop yesterday. They're not what I usually wear, but I was smitten. I think I'm in love...

An Apology...

Just a quickie. Sorry if I don't post much in the next few weeks. I'm pretty stressed at the moment as I'm doing two GCSEs next week and am completely unprepared. I'll try to blog when I can, but education comes first and all that. Hopefully everything will be back to normal soon!

My first Polyvore set!

This is a test to see if I can get my polyvore sets onto my blog. This set is mainly based around owls. I am absolutely obsessed with them, and think that owl jewellery is really cute and quirky. I also incorporated a cableknit jumper into the set, which I adore, and have been after for ever! Unfortunately, whenever I go to Topshop, it's always sold out :(

If you like this set, please go and check it out and like it on Polyvore. I'm going to try and create some more sets soon too, and hopefully share them with you. See you soon.

Who Am I?

Hi, I'm Olive and I want to share with the world all of the little things that I find and love. This blog is mainly going to consist of music recommendations, fashion and beauty information/ideas, titbits of information about life and that sort of thing, and a few spelling mistakes along the way. Sorry if I do spell some things wrong, I try my best :)

Because this is my first post, I wanted to share with you a little bit of one of my favourite things ever, and that is music, more specifically, Modest Mouse. I recently got a copy of the CD 'Good News for People Who Love Bad News' which I have been after since it came out in 2004! I was constantly borrowing it off a friend of mine, who happens to have excellent music taste.

The Album Cover

This album is definitely one of their best, in my opinion. You can definitely hear the Pixies influence coming through, which is a really good thing. There is a mixture of loud and quiet and loads of amazing guitar riffs. I also find that front-man Isaac Brock has a really interesting voice, with lots of different sounds, and I love it! If you haven't already got this album, I really recommend it, especially if you're into the Pixies' sound!

More posts coming your way soon!
