Hello everyone,  first of all I of course have to say thank-you for all of your lovely comments regarding my little documentary below, I honestly wasn't expecting such a response, so thank-you! They are some of the kindest comments I've ever recieved, I'm so glad that it has allowed you to get to know a little bit more about me and my everyday life. I've watched the documentary more than a few times myself, and it really has made me see myself in a different light. I really ought to stop putting myself down so much, because whilst I'm still extremely pessimistic and unconfident, I'm not as bad as I think I am. Anyway, I had the most lovely day yesterday as I spent the afternoon at the Victoria and Albert Museum with my grandma, to wander around the galleries (and gift shop!), have earl tea & scones in the beautiful William Morris dining room and to attend a free lunchtime lecture on the histories of the museum. I'll honestly never get bored of visiting the museum, it's such a wonderful place.. Righty-ho, well I better dash as I'm off to spend the day in Nottingham with Lucy and Winnie to attend Kristabel's final knitwear show! Love, Jazzabelle.

  14. Hello, I thought you would be interested to know that for my current uni project I'm looking into citizen journalism. I've been looking at professional reviews about the V&A on the internet and I've been comparing your V&A posts against theirs, because half the time the profs don't get any responses from the public and I've been reading through some of the comments you get regarding the V&A and they are great. You are my backup for defending citizen journalists :)

  15. Gorgeous, as ever! I just watched the video and it's fab, I really must go to that charity shop one day the ones in my city are extortionate. You should have more confidence in yourself, you are so pretty and really talented at putting outfits together you are definitely one of the bloggers I most look to for inspiration.

  28. I LOVE Blondie - brilliant T-shirt! Ah, the V&A, I haven't managed to get there for ages. However, when my exams are finally over after the middle of June I'm hoping to get to London a few times and the V&A will be near the top of my list of places to go. Congratulations on the documentary - it looks great and is also an excellent celebration of charity shop shopping.

  32. Rip Her to Shreds is one of my favourite Blondie songs, after X Offender and One Way or Another. I remember seeing them live a few years ago and it was amazing! So yeah, seriously like the top :) xxxx

  33. Discovered your blog through greer and I have to say you are really that kind of girl I´d love to have as my friend just because of the fact that you do charity shopping instead of looking for expensive designer clothes , you are quite interested in art and your photos are so inspiring and fascinating.
    Well , hope that I´ll see you one day when I´m in London ;)
