Neon Lights, Shimmering Neon Lights...

....And at the fall of night, This city's made of lights.

Tracey Emin, I Can Feel Your Smile, 2005

I do not claim to be an art fan, I do not know enough about it but I recently started noticing Tracey Emin's work with neon lights. Told you I was no art fan, some of them are years old.

I have always, always had a thing for neon signs, its my tacky side once again, and I have started loving Emin's neon lights.

If I had my own place and money I would kill for something like these on my walls.

Especially the hearts.

This blog is making me smile kittyhell.com. A man who lives in a Hello Kitty hell hole.

Although I know for a fact I would be the kind of preson that would buy things like this ring given half a chance.

Oh I do like to be beside the seaside....

I just spent a few days in  gorgeous, wild and windy Whitby with the boyfriend who has a bit of a thing for looking at wool (he was given balls of it to play with as a child and I guess it stuck?) so we went into Bobbins the little wool shop/museum. Anyway the point I'm trying to reach is that they had a small display about traditional fishermans jumpers or ganseys. Each village had their own patterens which allowed a fisherman to be identified and returned home should he be found washed up upon the shore. This may sound grim but it makes sense.

Anyway I highly doubt I'm going to be found washed up on any shores (fingers crossed) but I still like the look of these weatherproof jumpers. I'm thinking huge, oversized and worn with some super tight trousers.

Oh and if you happen to be out that way I would definatly reccomend that you take a little trip to Sandsend and book yourself in for dinner at the woodlands for your tea. Yum.

Coming up roses.....

Rose mouthwash, because mint is just not right for pink haired girls.

I can't believe no one ever told me how awesome Hairspray is! I watched it last night. New one, old one is now on my lovefilm list. And it reminded me about ho much I love wearing my hair in a mini beehive. I just need to work on getting it massive now so I can get kicked out of class for my huge hair. And just wait til I put all that cupcake pink dye I bought in it!!!
