Outfit Of The Month | Badass April

You know those months that you just can't wait to see the back of? Yeah that was this month. I want to be honest with you guys and say that April was a piece of shit. But I'm all about those positive vibes, so I'll let you in on a little secret to how I handle a not so great day/week. 

I throw on some badass sunglasses and a killer jacket and boss that shit out! Seriously if you act like a badass that no one can mess with it'll rub off on your actual mood. Use whatever is getting you down to make yourself even better, work harder then you ever have, gym it till your legs burn and put that self improvement into overdrive.

Skirt - H&M

So whatever shit you've got going on, just boss that shit out! xx 

The Dating Diaries | My Worst First Dates

First dates are a funny thing, some people love them and some people hate them. I for one am quite a fan of them just becuase you never know what's going to happen. That doesn't mean to say all my first dates have gone great...some of them I just wish I stayed at home and missed.

Over the Easter holiday when I was back home, my mum thought it would be a fun activity to remind me of some of my dating history from wayy back in my awkward mid-teenage years. 

Im not gonna name any names because I'm #classy but I since i've already made a fool of myself in front of these people, why not tell the world? 

Traumatised by Tangled

One of my first ever dates I went on was when I was about 14. For some reason I really wanted to go on a date with this guy (current me can't see what the fuss was about) I pestered him for weeks until he finally gave in and we went to the movies. The only movie that was being shown at that time was Tangled....first hurdle.  No snacks were brought and the conversion was so uncomfortable I wanted to hide under the cinema chair. But for some reason I was trying to force this to happen even though it totally felt like he was dragged here by his mum. I clearly remember cracking up at this one part in the movie and heard him mutter under his breath "childish". At the end of the date we ended up on the same train home.... extra awkward, when I could finally get off and let all that awkwardness go, I had time to reflect and thought it would be a nice thing to text him a "thanks for the date" message. Which never received a reply. 

Moral of the story: Don't force someone to go on a date with you because it will just be an awkward mess. 

Liquid Courage 

Im going to give you a little background on this guy and why I was so nervous in the first place. I'd been chatting for this guy on and off for quite a while, he was a few years older and for 15 year old Nicole that was "so cool". He was the king of playing hard to get, one day I would be swooning and the next day he was ignoring me. So when he finally asked me out for drinks I was so excited but even more nervous. My friend thought we should get in a pre date sheesha and some drinks of our own so i'd be less stressed. I ended up having 4 tequila shots... (remember i was so nervous so I didn't exactly eat before) When I finally met up with the guy I was in the tipsy stage but soon after he brought me a vodka mixer, BOOM the drunk mess hit. Lets just say the last thing I remember is getting put into a taxi and seeing him looking rather pissed off. 

Moral of the story: Sometimes it's okay to be nervous just hold back on the alcohol if you actually want to remember your date. 


Period Problems

This story is a little gross for all you out there that can't handle period talk. So I'd arranged this date with a guy after school and as he was coming from quite far away I pretty much had to leave straight after school finished to get there on time. As every girl does, I was in the toilet with my friend checking myself out when I had the horror of noticing that i'd just got my period....and hard. The worst part was that our uniform had a beige skort, which pretty obviously showed everything. It was too late to cancel and I was stressing out pretty hardcore so my friend (shout out to you Jaya) quickly suggested that we swap skorts so that I wouldn't have to worry about all the mess and she'd just wash mine for me at home. I mean if thats not a best friend thing to do then I don't know what is. The date went pretty good and after seeing him another time I found out he had a girlfriend..... 

Moral of the story: If something horrific happens before a date, take it as a warning sign. 

At the time these were some scarring memories, but now I think they are hilarious. What was your worst date? xx  

Outfit Of The Month | March | Urban Vibes

To my surprise when I arrived home for the Easter holidays, Hong Kong was a little chillier than I expected. Usually I'd be practically living in a bikini at this time of year, but instead I was extremely unprepared and a little bit cold. 

The vibe of this city always make me want to put a little more effort into my outfits, dressing a casual playsuit with some heels and statement jewellery gives you a smart casual look, or how I like to call it...smasual perfect for a lunch date with an obscene amount of cocktails! 

Playsuit: Urban Outfitters 

Heels: Forever 21

Necklace: H&M 

Bag: H&M 

The said obscene amount 

of cocktails

Confessions Of A Drunk Girl | Drunk Texting

Do you ever wake up after a night out and for a second you're a little confused and disoriented before your memories from the night hit you and you get that horrible stomach sinking feeling?
  
I've stopped bringing my phone with me on most nights-out unless it's a matter of life or death. Everyone has their unique drunk quirks, mine just happens to be sharing my thought process at that moment in time with some select people in my contacts. But pretty much everyone does it at some point in their lives, some more than others.... Here are a few of my "favourites". 



The "Are you out?" Text 

I'm wanting to know whether to look out for you or to avoid you if you reply with yes....lucky you will never know which one I'm going to do though! or I'm wondering if you're drunk right now so I don't have to worry about embarrassing myself completely when I continue to drunk message you.
  


The "I know it's 3am but I REALLY need your help" Text.

Asking advice from your friends who aren't out. Firstly I'd like to say sorry, and secondly I may sound like I need this advice desperately but about a second after sending you the message i'm asking some random drunk girl in the bathroom,(she really knows what she's talking about)



The "I hate you" Text 

This is most likely because you've pissed me off recently but because I hate confrontation I pretend everything's all sunshine and rainbows. But if you've annoyed me so much that you ruin my night....then you probably deserve it #sorryimnotsorry 



The "Lets hang out" Text

Usually this is after you've seen a long lost friend on your night or they've liked your pre night-out selfie. When they except your offer in the morning, you have to come up with a pretty good excuse to bail... a crazy hangover is always a good one. 



The "Drunk damage control" Text 

After waking up and realising what you've done, you attempt to make things better again. Without taking into consideration the fact that you've only had 2 hours sleep and are pretty much the same drunk mess you were before. Just leave it, nothing says I'm sorry like pretending nothing happened!  



The "I love you"/ "I miss you" Text

I saved the worst till last, this text comes at the end of the night when you've had too much and are a bit on the hysterical side. Usually once you're home and feeling sorry for yourself because you're such a wreck. I will have completely forgotten about that message until the next morning when I wake up and look through my phone and want to bang my head against the wall. P.S never take this message seriously, I'm just drunk.

Happy texting, drunk bitches! xx
