I am finally 18!

so, my birthday was on bonfire night and i turned 18 eeeeeeeee! 

I had such a good birthday weekend which concluded in me never wanting to drink alcohol ever again. 

I had four nights of partying and i still am recovering from it , i was not a pleasant site at sixth form on Monday morning at all, but it was definitely worth it. Sophie lived at mine for the weekend, which was lovely.I love that my birthday is on bonfire night, i love fireworks and toffee apples and i love the smell of a good bonfire. I also love the fact you have to wrap up really warm and snuggly to go and watch the fireworks.

On Thursday night i went into town with 4 of my bestest girlies and had so much fun.

I wore when of my favourite ever dresses.... Its a black fitted dress from All Saints <3, i wore it with a pair of ridiculously high topshop black sakura heels and a gorgeous ruffle bag also from topshop.

Kellee, Sophie, Me.
Friday night me and Sophie stopped at My Brothers who live in the centre of Nottingham.
I went out for a meal with the Family then went out in nottingham with everyone, it was really good.
I wore another of my favourite dresses here to, its just a simple black one from topshop but i just love how it has a really low back, i think it looks so nice.

Me and sophie, before the drunken aftermath.

Me and my new Michael Kors watch.

Me and my ID!!!

All my love, Cici♥

Jacks Photo♥

I absolutely adore this picture.

It was taken by one of my oldest and bestest friends, Jack. He is really into photography and art and that sort of thing and i think he is extremely talented in that area. This photo was taken with an old black and white film camera that he picked up for a fiver from a charity shop and i am in love with the sort of picture's it takes. 

I love this picture as it captures the whole essence of the day it was taken. A chilly, fun, spontaneous day with two of my best friends. I also love how it looks, kind of vintage and old and how it captures the season.

Well done jacky! Check out his blog...  www.jackevans3.tumblr.com

The month of October ♥

I must say that the month of October is not my favourite month of the year, but this October hasn't really been to bad. Its had it's ups and downs but generally it's been a fairly decent month. I like it when its gets a little colder and the leaves start falling off the trees and make it feel like autumn, i also like it when it begins to get darker earlier, it gives me an excuse to snuggle up in my joggers and hoodie watch films and drink tea, but no dought ill get bored of that pretty soon and want summer back. 
So what significant things have happened in October ? ...

♥ I passed my driving test! yay! It took me five times to pass but i did it!

♥ Me and my boyfriend of 3 years broke up :(, but you have to keep your chin up don't you.

♥ I went to Alton Towers scarefest! spooky! 

♥ I drove on the motorway for the first time to Sheffield, it was scary.

♥ I spent a lovely lovely weekend in Leeds with my friend lewis.

♥ I have been to numerous 18th gatherings/parties.

♥ I went to Coventry for a few days with Michaela, which was amazing.

♥ And i learnt how to catch trains without getting on the wrong ones.

♥ I spent all my wages in topshop or on food!

Here are just a few snaps that some up my month...

Alton Towers Scarefest with the girlies!

Sam's 18th! I love Kayla.

Goose Fair, Nottingham.

Top 4 fast hair fix's.

001. The messy bun. 

       This is so quick and easy and all you need is a booble and maybe a few hair grips.

      literally just scape you hair up with you hand and put a bobble in it, then grip the fly away bits into place      and hey presto you have it and it doesn't even look that bad.

This is definitely a i got up at half eight an had to be a sixth form for 9 hair do.

002. the simple pony tail

A ponytail is pretty straight forward get a bobble put it in ...done! 

they are particularly useful too, in this case i had curled my hair the night before then slept on it so it was fairly crazy so i just put it up. A pony can be classy or casual, it looks good in all situations.

003. The middle parting. 

Very fashionable 'in' right now, that's that really.

Part it in the middle and tousle it a little bit.

004. Half up half down 

Perfect for a formal even or and everyday trip.

Take the top layers of your hair and pin them at the back, done!

I always do this when my fringe seems to be doing a thing of its own, i love it.

Personally i hate it when every hair is perfectly in place, i'm into messy, tousled, teased hair.
