iPhone + Results Day!

It's been a crazy few days boys and girls, so I think this post might be better split into two sections :-)

1) iPhone

I got my BlackBerry Storm stolen about a month ago and since then I've been totally uncontactable whilst on the go. Needless to say, this was complete and utter hell, especially since I went on holiday with my family to Alnwick so had no internet either! But I had a spur of the moment splurge on a brand new iPhone and I've not looked back. Seriously.. it's fantastic :-) I love everything about it! Although I have found one flaw (not with the iPhone.. with an App I downloaded). It did make me laugh though;



Basically, you're supposed to scan the barcode of something and the phone will know what it is and find where you can get it cheapest. After I scanned the can of Coca-Cola, it though it was a Surveillance Camera System. Not quite :-) This being said.. I love my iPhone!

2) Results Day

The 20th of August was A Level results day, so for all the students like me it was the moment of fate to see whether or not I'd got into Uni! After hours of waiting I finally got to college at 11.45 and opened my envelope. I got ABB! :-) I was so happy it was unbelievable, I got my place at Nottingham Trent University with my best friend Lauren! After that I had a few drinks with the college people then headed home to change and go out for a few drinks with everyone else. I had a really good time and was just so happy!

For the daytime I opted for a gorgeous QED London dress I bought from a boutique in Newark, at £35 it was a complete bargain! It's white with red poppies at the bottom, and it's just above the knee. I teamed it with classic white court shoes, white pearls and a cute red Primark cardie. It's more casual than what I wore for college (formal, businesslike attire).. but I love it and got quite a few compliments. Here's a photo of me and my friend Lou:


As you can see I opted for a very natural make-up look, I don't like to wear a lot during the day so just went for some pencil eyeliner and mascara.

Here's a photo of me and Lauren in Varsity, we're officially Uni buddies now! :-) At nighttime I changed into a purple one-shoulder "Glamorous" dress from the same boutique. It's a gorgeous deep purple and had a pretty bow on the shoulder, but I don't really have a clear photo of it! I had a really good night out celebrating with everyone, the local club had a 3 for 1 drinks offer so it was cheap too! For going out I added more eyeliner and put mascara on my lower lashes too for a more dramatic look. When it's going to be hot I really don't see a need in lots of make-up.
Here's what I looked like:


I'm sorry I've been away for a while and that this post wasn't really fashion related, I just wanted to update you on what was going on in my life :-) I hope everyone that had A Level results got what they wanted and had a great time celebrating. Packing for Uni has commenced as I move in to my flat on the 29th August, so it might be a while until I post again!
