Favourite photos of the week

Too amusing not to post :p

Want to try this for a future project

Somebody take me here please?

Not many favourites from this week as I've been very busy with work and other commitments. Got two 'What I Wore' posts coming up from this past weekend but as my camera batterie's are dead I had to resort to my iPhone for photos. Also working on that 'Outfit Inspiration' post I was talking about in my previous post (At least I think I did?) so that will also be coming up soon. 

Other than that I'm just looking forward to another week of sleep deprivation and long chats with friends! How about you?

I know I haven't been posting my favourite pics of the week for some time now but I hope to continue regularly posting them from now on! Not much happened this week; went back to school on Thursday and yesterday I went to my friend's Georgia's birthday which was fun- got to catch up with lots of old class mates :)
Also I finally got round to watching Martha Marcy May Marlene which was absolutely incredible... Elizabeth's acting was stunning and I must say much more authentic than her older sisters'. My next post will be on some inspiration I've seen online recently for some outfit ideas so stay tuned :)

2011 post

 Finally bought the new issue of Elle, also bought a disposable cam from Boots

 Most delicious smelling candle ever! 

Blouse from H&M 

Just finished reading this gem...bit of an anti climax towards the end but nevertheless still an amazing read!

Just some photos from the past few days... quite happy with the disposable camera; now I can take photos on the go when i'm out with friends, plus when developed the print has a kind of retro look to it which in the long run will be cheaper than a polaroid camera, so until I've saved enough for one this'll have to do.

Kisses, Aisha

This notion may be naïve

Dying flowers

Trying to take mascara off haa

Not up to much at the moment, right now trying to work on research for my dissertation and listening to good music. Tomorrow, though, I'll be meeting up with some of my girl friends for lunch then ice skating, which I'm looking forward to :) Then last minute shopping with my mom for suit trousers and blouses aaand then back to school on the 5th it is for me :( My resolutions have been going okay so far (I know it has only been two days but that's encouraging for me! :P ) although my run this morning left me in absolute PAIN. Grrr this is what I get for not working out for months, then launching into it, I guess.

How has everyone been spending their first few days of the new year?

Kisses, Aisha

Happy New Year from London!

All were taken on my phone. This past year has been a year of new experiences and new memories. Good times, bad times, stressful times and rewarding times. Upon reflecting on all of this, I've decided that I don't really want to set resolutions to change about my life, but to merely improve what I'm working at already. My aims for 2012 are;
-To work out more regularly
-To improve my productivity, whether it be with work, planning or organizing or life generally :P
-To take more risks with my photography (e.g stoping strangers on the street to take a photo of, trying new themes for future photo shoots)
-Take up lots of short courses and get more work experience
-Read more and a wider range of material

Overal, I cannot wait for this year because I feel like the next 12 months are going to be long, and with that there is a lots of work, opportunities and mostly; potential. I want to strive to make this the best year yet for myself and others.

And with that I leave you with a big warm HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Lots of luck and lots of love, Aisha xxx

Very late post

I'm strangely obsessed with these clear stick on nails. Very minimalist. Check out the blog post here

The Versace A/W11 for H&M hits stores tomorrow...! Doubt I'll buy anything but if I could I'd DEFINITELY get this silk shirt and this printed cotton bomber jacket.

BIRDY... enough said...

For some reason this post didn't get posted... so here it is... a couple of months late :/

Valentina by Valentino Advertisement

Freja Beha Erichsen is one of the most favourite models ever and her new campaign with Valentino for his new perfume "VALENTINA" has completely entranced me! Here are some more pictures from the campaign (credit: google)
