Hello Bon Iver ticket, YOU HAVE ARRIVED. 
I am a very very happy girl, and can not wait for November!

Rant


Just lately I have been really struggling to understand why I repeatedly see so many girls wearing little, to no clothes on a daily basis, and even more so on nights out. I was told from a very young age, that the less you show, the more people will respect you. And I learnt as I got older, that the nice boys will wait to find out whats underneath, and will love that it is only for their eyes, not for the whole world to see. Maybe I am just bitter because these girls are clearly pretty and proud of their slim bodies, but personally I opt for a happy balance. By that I mean that I won't just cover myself from head to toe because I'm ashamed of myself, but I will maybe wear a high neck top/jumper, or a buttoned up shirt and then maybe shorts, or tight skinny jeans. On nights out, if I'm wearing massive heals, I will always wear jeans and a pretty top to go with it. If I'm wearing a skirt or shorts, I will usually just wear my brogue heals, which are quite small but give me a bit of height, or I will just wear some pretty flats, and dress it up with my clothes.
However, I do think it is nice to show a bit of skin sometimes, and wear something a little more sexy (I wish I could have explained myself there without using the world 'sexy'). I just simply hate seeing basically the whole of girls bum cheeks on a daily basis, and now apparently, a lot of side boob.
Anyway, this post makes me feel a little old and grumpy. But, as You Me At Six would say 'Save it for the bedroom' (I don't even like this band, but a few of my friends from Uni will be proud of me for quoting them)

Daughter

'Daughter' are such a good band, I have been listening to them a lot lately. This song is beautiful, it is called 'Love' and I really recommend anyone gives it a listen. 'Youth' and 'Smother' are also incredible songs by Daughter.

I can't afford new clothes at the moment, so I have been rummaging through my wardrobe to find older clothes that I can team with some of my favorite items of clothing, to make an outfit I've never warn before. Sooo I found this dark green lacey dress that I tucked in to my favorite denim shorts, and I will definitely be wearing this again soon. Both the dress and shorts are from Topshop, my belt is from H&M.

UPDATE -continuted

I also forgot to say in that last post that on Monday I was asked by my friend George to go and be a model for Tony & Guy, I got my make-up done by Mac for free, and then got my hair put up by a top stylist from London. The first hairstyle she did was slightly bizarre, but the second was an incredible beehive style, done to perfection. But yeah, that was fun!

UPDATE:

It is that odd time of year again when the excitement of summer is dwindling, and reality of life is beginning to hit again. It is about a month till I go back to Sheffield; back to living with my lovely friends, and back to working hard. The goal is a degree at the end of this year, if I could get a 2.1, that would be delightful. But before I think of the result, the reality of how hard third year is going to be is starting to hit...and I thought second year was draining.
But for now, summer continues, my job on the bar at Nottingham Forest is going well, and it is nice to finally be earning a bit of money. I have seen so much of my lovely friends at home, which has been amazing, and even though it can be challenging sometimes, it has been lovely to come back to home comforts, with my mum's cooking and my dad's funny ways (they do have other talents). I have also seen my beautiful sister quite a few times, and even went to the Olympics in London, which was amazing! 
Here are a few pictures from things that I've done lately. Again, they will be mismatched as I am useless at keeping this updated on a regular basis. 
Thank you for reading! Amarni
Olympics!






My day at the Olympics with my family started off wet and horrible, while we watched the women's Marathon, however, the atmosphere was still electric. But later that day, the rain stopped, the sun came out, and it was boiling! We went to Hyde park to 'London LIVE' which was set out like a festival, and there we sat on a picnic blanket surrounded by happy people, with drinks and Mr. Whippy's watching the Olympics, amazing!

 Random stuff
Went to Danny's hot tub party in his incredible garden. It felt like we were in America,  with his huge bar outside, hot tub, fairylights, numerous swing seats, a trampoline, and lots of grass and seating areas. Again, amazing.
Drinks with the girls- we have done this A LOT this summer, but this is just one pictures Tunney took the other day with her new Iphone, of me and Kayleigh. 

Goodbye best friend
Sooo, my best friend in the world, Evie, is off to Turkey in less than a month now, and she had a leaving party to say goodbye/21st birthday party. Her birthday isn't until November, but she won't be coming home for it, so this was our chance to celebrate! GOODBYE BEAUTIFUL.





My other friend Danielle is also sadly leaving us to start her new life in Holland (Amsterdam). She is off to Uni there, so will be gone for three years, but she assures me she will be back soon. She went yesterday, and it was horrible saying goodbye. She also had a leaving party, however I didn't get any pictures, but you're probably relieved as there is already far too many on this post aha! 
Adios amigos.
