Thank you mr Yves Saint Laurant

Im so chuffed today I managed to get a free Yves Saint Laurant tote bag and book and usb pen! 

I saw a mini note of it in the London Lite and sniffing a freebee I knew had to be mine I set off to get it! Me and my flatmate spent quite a long time looking around for where they were giving them out and finally stumbled across the YSL ladies in black bomber jackets - I never give up when freebees are involved!

although the bag is useful I think the USB pen is my favourite - heart shaped especially for today!

This is my new dress from Catch 22 on Carnaby street - 70% discounted!

Cry-Baby

I have a new favourite film!!! (and director)

I only got Cry-Baby on monday and i watched it three times in a row and am trying not to watch it again because i dont want to spoil that new film feeling! these are a couple of reasons why I love the film:

1. its set in the fifties! Everyone loves the fifties! 

2. seriously amazing music

3 "you got it alisson, you got it RAWWW!" (if anybody said this to me i would spontaniously combust with pleasure perhaps - why cant i be RAWWW?)

4. Iggy Pop!!!

5. Johnny Depp looking like this: 

6. 'tis a John Waters film and he is seriously becoming my favourite director

7. fifties singing and dancing and extra slimy kissing with tongues!

So theres no reason for people to not see it!

Next time you see me I intend to look like this:

...think I might watch it now...

why does this exist?!

This image lives in my nightmares:

Snow and crap

Things have gone a bit shit really, but its nobodys fault so ive got to live with things.

on the plus side I managed to get the snow twice  - deep deep snow in london and in my hometown too when i went home at the weekend.

My boyfriend came down to see me and we made these:

snow snail and freaky ass monkey penguin 

In London there was the most snow in 18 years or something and on tuesday we found lots of these had popped up around london:
