I'VE SWALLOWED HALF AN HOURGLASS.

A handful of photographs from my Glastonbury experience, which can only be justly summarised as magical! The entire weekend is a colourful and sparkly blur to me still, filled with memories of watching our favourite artists under the gleaming sunlight. The atmosphere of the festival itself would've been enough to persuade me to live there forever- although i'm certain that the lack of showers and flushing toilets would soon catch me out. With only Reading festival to compare to, Glastonbury was like no other place, more rather a mystical land that you dream up as a child- with the added bonus of your favourite bands, the best night life and insane food. I could ramble and even sing to you about the joys of Glastonbury for days, so to avoid any of this, a video of one of my highlights: Biffy Clyro singing Mountains- Simon Neil at his best...
Swiftly returning to reality... I jumped at the chance of going down to Portsmouth for some retail therapy. I was ecstatic to find a Kurt Geiger outlet there- yes, a store where all of their shoes were one sale, I was as happy as any girl would be discovering this. Although the store was filled with this seasons  'be ready for summer' sandals, my eyes were drawn to any shoes which would fulfil my chunky heel collection. The result is these beauties which were £100 off their original price! They have definitely brightened up the three weeks of school I still have to devour before the Summer break! Outfit post with these are inevitable.

GLASTONBURY WARDROBE NITPICKING.

Packing incessantly for Glastonbury doesn't seem so worrying now that i've finished exams! 
The earliness of the packing must seem incredibly anal for those who are yet to get to know me and my organisational ego. Being more of a Wednesday Adams type I found it difficult finding a lot of the pastels and chiffons I wanted for my festival suitcase in my wardrobe. Alas, I still hold the many Topshop vouchers from my recent birthday to over-turn my wardrobe in time for this summer. Hoping that the weather will be obedient (touch wood) i'll be packing lightly with lots of injections of crochet, pastels, florals and tropical drinks to go with any tropical head gear!

This outfit is a montage to the shorts which I received as a birthday present! Unfortunately with the outfit being too dressy for any festival (other than the infamous Coachella festival) I will only be taking remnants of the look to Glastonbury. I am wearing TOPSHOP top, collar and shorts with a Vintage cameo broach.
I am still deliberating whether to pack one of my film cameras, and which one? Funding my addiction to film photography is getting far too expensive, a more-or-less cheap switch to the iphone's hipstamatic is inevitable!
These Balenciaga cut-out boots would go with the outfit so perfectly, if only....
