Extrovert or Introvert:

Introvert - I like spending time by myself doing my own weird things.

Although I do occasionally like being sociable, but I suppose it depends who I’m going to be with.

One thing you want right now:

Unff.

Where you’re from:

lol

One thing you hate about yourself:

My bad posture - which I don't realise I have until I see my reflection or a photograph taken. 

Often James points it out and tells me to sit up straight. This is annoying but necessary.

A series you wish would continue:

Hello Baby! It's basically SHINee looking after a wee toddler for a few weeks. It's dead cute, I love it and don't want it to end.

Screenshot of Desktop:

It's really messy because I'm working on the other bits of this blog post so there's random images saved..that I might not even use.

Favourite flavour of Ice Cream:

Nutella Bear - has anyone ever tried it? It’s amazing!

A hobby you’d die without:

K-Pop. 

A trend you hate

Ugg Boots. BOKE.

I is for...

Irregular Choice

Posts have been a bit delayed lately. I would lie and say I have been busy. But the actual fact is that I just couldn’t be BOTHERED to write this post. Everything lately seems like effort: when is it Christmas??

Okay, above is a picture of my shoe cupboard, where my Irregular Choice live like Kings and Queens on their beautiful shoebox. I love these shoes so much because they are all so unique. And each collection is so fresh, they never get boring. Lately, they have been selling them in DV8, so I make a point to not buy them from there because I think I would die inside if someone I knew owned the same as me. They are getting very popular, so I dread that because I like being different. I don’t think that will happen though because they are far too expensive!

And no, don’t say something like “haw claudia but your rich, you could buy them shoes no problem” C’mon, don’t you all realise?! I am a bargain hunter!! I would do anything for a freebie or getting something that’s good quality dirt cheap.

The only full-price pair of shoes I own are the Purple Cat Boots, but that was a present for passing my exams.

Although they aren’t all there in that photo, I have 8 pairs of these shoes. I started my collection in 2008. I bought my first pair in March/April when I was down in Derry over Easter visiting my cousin Gregor, back then they were uncommon. These don’t fit me as well as they use to, but occasionally I would squeeze my feet in for the craic. The next pair I got was for my 16th birthday. What attracted me to these bad boys was the really random heel on them.

Fabbydo: I got Fabbydos for London. These are very very comfy because of the big wedge heel and straps. Alas, they match very little outfits in my wardrobe.

Oz Bow Glitter Court: These Green Tinsil Shoes are an absolute scandal! When I was out shopping in Belfast, there was a shop (DV8 actually, lol) doing a massive clearout. And behold! They were selling these for £20! What made this such a scandal was THEY ARE NEW STOCK. They are still selling them in other stores, such as Schuh for like £80. I’m planning on wearing them all Christmas, they are so festive!

Leather Cat Heeled Ankle Boots, Purple Lavendar: (A.K.A: Cat Boots) J’ADORE LE BOOTS OF CHAT. They are not in the photo because they were getting reheeled at the time. Purple is my favourite colour, and these boots are so comfortable to wear.

Julie Who: Just another pair, don’t wear theses as often I used to, because they can be a bit slippy and are a bit scuffed now on the small heel. And what the flip model, they don't look nice with black tights!! >.<

Branded as my Elf Shoes, I got that pair yonks ago for £11. I don’t even know the name of it, it didn’t come with a box. Everybody hates them, which makes me wear them all the more. I can't even find a photo for them.

The other ones, I hardly wear these. The checkered ones in the picture I mean. Mum got me them, but they are still too big! :-/

I also have an Irregular Choice handbag, which I purchased in London.
And Henry’s Laptop Bag, the one with the creepy doll. (Pom Pom Chick)

I was going to conclude with a wish list of other Irregular Choice items. But who am I kidding? I I could, I would take every Irregular Choice item on the planet!

POST

Hello! I am postponing my Gaga post yet again because I want some of the photos Kerri took before I publish it. So it says on my to-do list “Blog something” which technically, I did do last night, but I may have caught the blogging-bug again so I will write another entry when I’m in the mood!

Okay, last week, which was an absolutely amazing week for me, was enhanced by receiving two, TWO! items in the post. I would be lucky to get one letter a month, never mind any packages! So the first thing that arrived was 4 posters from HMV Pure. If you haven’t heard it, it’s the HMV store’s rewards scheme: you save up your points you get from purchasing something in the shop. When you finally save up enough, go onto their online store and choose a gift for yourself. These products are absolutely amazing, like you can get signed guitars, concert & movie premiere tickets and props from movie sets- but you need a lot more points for that! I have been collecting for about a year and last week skimmed through the site to see if there was anything worth spending points on.

I chose a Emma Watson poster, Wizard of Oz and two Gaga ones. All were reasonably cheap, I picked Wizard of Oz because it was rather pretty, not that I particularly like that film.

However, when they arrived on Tuesday they were packed in a massive flatpack box! (Free packaging by the way!) The Wizard of Oz one was MASSIVE! It was one that would have been hung in the HMV shop. The two Gaga ones came in rolls and Emma Watson was A3 size. They all look so good!

To add to the excitement, I got more post on Wednesday. I and ordered Snapfish photos because I had 100 free prints, many thanks to O2 Surprises. So I spent Wednesday evening sticking them all up round my room. These prints are another one of my many obsessions.

30. YOUR REFLECTION IN THE MIRROR

Dear reflection,

You talkin‘ to me? Well of course, I’m the only one here.
I think I’ll do this in parts, like WhatAboutAdam’s video to his body.

Body
Dear body, I would like you body a lot better if you lost a bit more weight. But I’m thankful I’m tall-ish, because I even out more.

Hands
Thanks for being completely normal. Nails, you break too often, but I apologise I bit at you when I get nervous.

Face
I LOVE you face. You and I will both be greatful in about 40 years time when my skin looks fresh from taking care and moisturizing it from the age of fifteen. Thanks for being blemish free too. :)

Eyes
Eyes, I love how dark and pretty you are. Like somedays I don’t even need to wear eye makeup because I can get away without it. Thanks for being big and expressive. You will wonder why I smother eye-cream all over you every other night, but you’ll understand when I’m older.
Vision, why can’t you re-focus yourself so I don’t have to wear glasses or lenses? It’s a hassle waking up and not being able to see anything. If I had the cash I’d get you corrected.

Ears
Sometimes, ears, I wonder can you hear at all. I think I deserve this because I deafened you with music for seven years. I’m sorry.

Nose
I don’t have anything bad to say about you nose. You’re not too big, not to wide, you’re cute as a button.

Lips
Er, well what can I say? I suppose you look alright. Bit chappy in winter but otherwise the best.

Teeth
Grr teeth. Why do you do this to me? I do all I can to help you: I got braces and a selection of teeth whitening and no matter how hard I brush YOU WON’T CHANGE COLOUR. Flip sake, I look like a smoker with these teeth! It knocks all self-confidence I have left and you don’t even care. :[

I will get revenge, teeth, I’m gonna bleach yoooouuuu.

Shoulders
Ew I don’t like you. In photos, I look like I’m built as a house because you are so broad. I don’t want to look like a man, stupid shoulders.

Arms
I’m totally fine with the way you are. Apart from being aware once in a while when Amy ‘flabby-grabbys’ me that my arms are a little big, all is good, because you could be so much worse.

Legs
I exercise all the time and you don’t lose any weight, you just get more toned. Thighs, (eugh I hate that word) you do look fat but thankfully I don’t have any stretch marks or anything mega gross too.

Feet
Footsize, you are SO awkward: 6 1/2!! Do you know how hard it is to get shoes that fit? I will never forgive you for not fitting into those Irregular Choice silver boots, they looked so cool. :( (May I point out, I found the image of these boots on a website called The Fashion Police, where they mocked them :p who needs practical shoes anyway??)
Feet, you aren’t in the best condition, but I fail at looking after you. Look after yourself!

Hair
I adore you! I love your thickness and luxurious brown shade. Sometimes I should advertise with hair this shiny. You sit so perfectly. Mmm you’re so glossy I could eat you.
I want to apologise for dying and highlighting you in my younger years: your quality is much better now that I don’t. I will never cut you up again, a bob was not a good idea. Growing it out was even worse.
I don’t care if a fringe is unimaginative and dull. People think I’m a lot younger because of it and my flawless but childish round face, which can be useful. I love it because it’s dead handy to maintain, and it’s trademark of the claud.

Lots of Love.

CLAUDIA. x

FABBYDO!

Elloo!

Well I just realised I totally forgot about continuing my blogging session yesterday. It took hours to clean out my wardrobe. I tried on everything and now have barely anything left. Most of the stuff was just old or didn't fit. I need new jeans and a pile of new tops. Like loads of my lovely shoes are gone too! And I adore shoes. :( But on a brighter note, mum was shopping today and got me a new top for London and a beautiful pair of Irregular Choice for London! Have a look:

Strange, aren't they? I looked them up online on the Irregular Choice site and they all have special names- these are called Fabbydo. Ha that's such a funny word.
