Perfection equals

A NEW TRACK FROM THE KILLERS!!!

FOUR YEARS AND IT'S PERFECTION. I can just imagine being in a crowded darkened venue and the lights explode across the stage as B Flow sings "CAN'T WE ALL JUST RUNAWAY". I'd naturally be screaming the words at the top of my lungs along with him.

This has made me so very happy

The past couple of months

One of the things I had on my 50 things list this year is to take a photo a day. I'm proud to say that I have managed to do this everyday this year so far! Normally I get bored or distracted and lose interest but I've been able to keep doing this because of the Photo365 app that I downloaded on my iPhone. 

To catch up on things that have been happening here's a quick photo collage of a bunch of things that have been happening in my life the past few months.

It involves multiple hair colours, black milk, going to the football, adventures with my family & friends, lots of different nail polishes and many many other things.

Consider yourselves caught up in my life. Coming up next - NEW ZEALAND

P.S My hair is purple again - it feeeeeels sooooo goooood!!!! 

Alive still

Before I get into the whole story or try and explain my absence from my blog I need to draw your attention to this mind blowing new trailer that has been released to announce The Killers new album. I can't even begin to try and describe exactly how excited and happy this makes me. 

I didn't realise how much I missed having anything new from them until I watched this. I feel like these past few years has brought so much new music and bands into my life but just watching this trailer felt right. 

The Killers are my everything. Always and forever. I'm hoping that when I'm in the USA in November (oh yeah I booked a holiday) they will be somewhere near where I'll be. 

Now about my disappearance - you can blame the usual suspects (tiredness, exhaustion, lack of inspiration, nothing to write about etc etc) but I'm back now.

This weekend is a busy one for me and on Tuesday I'm heading to New Zealand for a week for a bit of a holiday. I can't wait to come back home and share photos and stories from this short adventure.

#11 of 50 things: Dye my hair blue

So, I did something different. I'm now a blue haired girl (instead of purple haired)!!! 

I've had this Special Effects Electric Blue hair dye in my cupboard for AGES but have only (finally) worked up the courage to take that leap into the world of blue hair. 

My hair started out very blonde (it wasn't hard to get it down from the pale purple I had in it - I used a Loreal box lightener and it was on my hair for about 20 mins and my hair was almost white) before leaving the dye on my hair for about 2 hours. 

It turned out SO much brighter than I anticipated and the response I have received from people has been so positive. 

And of course I had to wear shoes that matched my new hair.

I've had such a fun time having blue hair that I've just purchased more blue hair dye so I can keep this for a little longer. A couple of months as a blue haired girl should suit me perfectly.

#11. Dye my hair blue

Big smiles

P.S I have also not had a chance to take big camera photos of my new hair but I will soon. For now iPhone photos will do

Cobra love

This last week has been full of mega highs and head stomping in the ground lows. One of my mega highs was that on Monday night I was given the opportunity to photograph one of my favourite bands, Cobra Starship. This came at the absolute most perfect time.

I feel so happy and honoured to have been able to take these photos. This band to me is simply fun and amazing. Every time I've seen them I've danced around with a huge smile on my face and this time was no different. 

The crowd size left a lot to be desired but the bands energy didn't waiver. They played a huge set filled with a fantastic mix of old and new songs.

I heart you Cobra Starship - please come back soon!!!!

Much love
