not enough love...

Hello!

Well, after I posted my last entry my fingers were just itching to get onto some lovelinks action BUT though I like to shop shop shop I am not totally stupid so instead of getting the lovelinks or a string I did the next best thing....I got a lovelinks copy aka FAKE. YAY!

[Above image: not the one I got, I think it's a genuine.
All images courtesy of google images apart from the scrabble tile]

I'm sure this is just a fad of mine that I will quickly get bored of so I think I've made a good decision...I guess I'll know by this time next week (free p+p so I'm not expecting it to get here super fast but who knows!)

So all I need now is a pendant/charm of some sort. As I haven't really worn a necklace type thing before I have no idea what to go for, plus I have the harder task of rocking a piece of leather. I'm sure a wolf tooth would go with the leather but I'm not really a wolf tooth type of girl....

I have two ideas in my head:
look 1 = cute and quirky; which I could wear on Saturdays so just about anything would go. At least I don't need to worry about a colour palette as I'm usually in black or cream.
look 2 = pretty and sophisticated; this would be for work and is a toughie as my work clothes wouldn't be an obvious choice but I'm sure I'll think of something........I dunno....

Below is a scrabble tile pendant. Pixie Lott wore one in a MV and it's cute, def a Saturday charm, what do you think?


Next is my cute frog! The image is not accurate, I just google searched this one as the ebay one is protected or something; only problem with froggy is that he'll probably be upside down most of the time...

And then I've got my elephant. There are some really gorgeous one's on the market, but quite pricey so I'd have to get something plain like this...or maybe wait for my birthday?



And lastly, how cool is this?! It's a Miss Piggy pendant, one of a kind supposedly. But at a starting bid price of £18 I will never be wearing this, it's just not worth it for a fad :( But hey, if I end up rocking my leather string for 5 years then I will get this if it's still around!


Ok boy I need to get myself offline cos a) I'll be bankrupt with nothing to show but a handful of beads and b) it's frigging 1am and I wanted to be at work for 8am.

Goodnight folks xoxo

Challenge - Day 8: A photo that makes me angry/sad

Hi Guys :)

Apologies again for being behind with 'the challenge'. Been a very busy few days but I'll update you on that later maybe (but my main blogging focus is obviously challenge posts so we'll see how I get on).

With no further ado, here is a photo that makes me really really angry and overwhelmingly sad:


I'm not what I'd call an animal person. I'm barely a people person so to me animals are way way way off the scale. If I was on a desert island and had an option of being stranded with a pet, I'd choose to go solo (unless the pet was Jacob from Twilight haha).

Cruelty against elephants breaks my heart. I do not know why. My mum finds it really random. The reason why I think it effects me is because I am from Thailand, and in Thailand you have elephants walking along the road in Bangkok (and elsewhere). I am not pointing fingers or judging you, but me personally, I would never support elephant cruelty by paying to have a photo taken with/on an elephant or pay to feed it a banana. I feel really strongly about this. Whenever I say I am from Thailand a lot of people will mention elephants and I just grit my teeth and clench a smile and ignore the questions. I am not going to preach but I am not going to encourage it either.

To me, elephant cruelty doesn't have to be as portrayed in the photo - it's just the fact that the elephant is being forced to do things, or taken out of a comfortable habitat (being in London zoo is better than being forced to give people rides and then not fed if noone buys banana's for it).

Elephants are old wise creatures. Of course no human or animal should be treated badly, but elephants are definitely my 'thing'.

So yeah. Now I am riled and have to do two more challenge posts! ARGH lol

xoxo
