I have sat myself down and made myself a three year plan : two years to save up enough money to put down a deposit and months rent in advance on a flat (without hopefully skinting myself in the process cough splutter) and staying in the actual job I have now long enough to gain enough experience to land myself a higher earning job on the south coast of my dreams!
Secondly....I have been reading a lot about vintage lately. Vintage to me means second-hand (or even third or fourth) recycled garb that was your great-granny's. But it got me thinking...........thinking about my icon...yes, you guessed it, Marilyn Monroe.....
I have adored the 50s and in particular her look, and I have decided that a) I need to lose some weight ( I really really do!) and so to inspire myself I am going to model myself on La Monroe!
A few months back now, I started researching her make up - I have almost perfected the placing of her beuaty spot......I have found her red lipstick......HERE and now I need her hair ......drum roll.....my amazing fabulous hairdresser, Claudia, who is the expert in all things hair-related....is dyeing my locks blonde again and hopefully showing me how to "Marilyn it" without me getting all cack-handed and frustrated as usual.... I will let you know how we get on!
