Festival Times

Hey dolls :)

This is just a quick post to share some terrible photos from Rockness...I had an amazing weekend, my highlight was probably Debbie Harry singing Taio Cruz Break Your Heart - she was sporting the most A-MAZING cut crease look I have seen in ages and had a platinum wig on, my chum Lynsey summed her up perfectly - she looked like GaGa's mum!

This is what I wore - I opted for layers which turned out to be a good thing as by the end it was FREEZING. Nothing glamorous but it kept me toasty and dry!


Daniel and I had the same Mac in a Pac from Primark - If you are festival bound this summer I can't recommend this enough, it was only £6 and kept the rain out all day and night - also apparently it's 'windproof' but I don't really know what that means...

This is Nick and his two friends Pete and Daniel - some may say shorts were a flawed choice...

Ha ha I love this photo - looking a little bedraggled but still smiling...

How amazing does Debbie Harry look?

At the beginning of the day - Rockness is one of the most beautiful festivals I have been too - it's on the banks of Loch Ness, it's still quite a small festival but is getting bigger each year and I honestly can't tell you how lovely and laid back it is...

From my five years of festival going there are certain things I have noticed:

1. Wearing red lipstick and/or false lashes make you look ridiculous
2. Maxi dresses are not appropriate attire - neither are heels
3. If you insist on doing drugs there is a certain age where it looks a bit sad/wrong
4. Fighting with complete strangers is stupid - especially if you're a 40 year old woman who slaps an 18 year old
5. Whipping someone in the face with your manky dread lock whilst also being a bit minging is highly hilarious

Festivals: rain/sun/mud/warm cider/amazing music/old friends/new friends/portaloos/wellies/laughing/singing/screaming/hugs/disco dancing/queuing/silly hats/sunglasses/hangovers.


Lots of Love
