CONFESSIONS OF A 20 YEAR OLD STRESS DEMON

I’m the worlds worst real person blogger ever.
So I’m a ~fashion student~ now, it’s fun and horrible. Uni is a cesspool of stress paper and threads. And rulers. Freakin rulers. They are like 50 bucks each and you need like 100. However I have just had my first official uni break, which basically means they give you two weeks off and give you a ridiculous amount of things to do in those two weeks. I’ll stop complaining though, I’m very lucky to have got accepted and to have such awesome parents that are supporting me (emotionally anddd financially..) thanks ma and pa!

SO, I have completed two dresses now. One is this cutesy Scottish numero that started off as being a tee shirt shift dress and ended up beinggg this:


The other, is this weird kinda tinkerbell-got-into-witchcraft thanggg:
P.S. That mannequin you see there, yeah that’s MINE. Her name is Ursula.
I don’t really have a fully developed style or signature (as you can tell) but I guess I wont really know until I’m further into it.

It’s hard, having to rely on your own ability to be consistently creative. Boy it’s challenging but boy it is rewarding. 
We’re starting pants soon, SO excited. They are notoriously difficult but pants are so fun.

SO. All university things aside, here’s a teeny update on my scandalous personal life.
I don’t party really anymore, It’s too expensive and I don’t have time. I have a manfriend! His name is Levi and he is far too good for me on every possible level but he hasn’t figured that out yet so I’ll be enjoying it until then. And I got fat. Which is depressing. But go figure. DIET ON. Untill next time… STAY GROSS

Numbers and Stars and Chains and Leather.

Not a lot has happened since my last post, because unfortunately I don't actually have much of a life.
It's about four weeks until I make the big move to Auckland and about five weeks until my first day of university EVER. Super scary/awesome/exciting/disgusting. Basically my plans for now are to write lots of lists and watch lots of Harry Potter. Oh, and, start to teach myself about Numerology, Astrology and Crystal Healing.
I never really looked very far into it, and I think that probably has a lot to do with my parents (and myself, at one point) being very strong Christians. Now I don't necessarily believe in any of it yet, but I don't see the harm in educating myself as I find it all very interesting. So far I discovered my Life Path number, Destiny number and Personal year number which all seemed to put me down to a T. Astrology really interests me because we are essentially all children of the earth, regardless of how you believe we got here, and it only seems a little logical that the moon and the stars and the planets have some effect on us. I don't know, I'm yet to be completely convinced! Though I got a big fat horoscope for the year and it proved pretty insightful. As for crystals, this has been something I have been interested for a long long time and crystals are beautiful so nobody loses. I believe religion is a product of fear, and I don't think it's all that necessary. But stars and planets and crystals are pretty, and there's just something about numbers. One of the only things in the world that doesn't lie, just makes perfect sense.
Anywayy the other day I went shopping with my best friends and snatched up these INSANELY COOL spurs. They were $10 for the pair and I got them from an opshop.
And as a matter of fact, the boots I put them on were $5 from the same opshop weeeheyyyy! I did put them on my docs originally but they are navy and they looked pretty silly with my starry laces. I also got the dress I am wearing (cause you can totally see it/not at all)

but I don't know if I like it. Peter Pan collars are getting a bit eugh. P.S. Why is it that the two things I made for my portfolio in like September are fucking eeeeverywhere now?! Peter Pan collars & uneven hemlines. Tut tut tut.
Anyway, I'm gonna go back to geeking my guts out and doing Harry Potter fan art. If you have gotten this far, thankyou for reading my babbling bullshit!
S-s-s-s-s-staaaayyy gross.
Just some vanity to keep up my title of 'The most narcissistic person ever' <3

Accio blogger?

2012 is actually just as scary as it sounds, and I hope it lives up to the hype, aside from the world ending of course. It's gonna be a pretty definitive year, not to mention effing ridiculously hard. I moved here from tumblr. I still go there, probably more often than I should, but more for amusement rather than blogging. Not that blogging should ever be taken too seriously.. MOVING ON.
I should probably introduce myself, to my gigantic bevvy of zero followers..

I'm Hannah, I'm almost 20 and this is a bear I made when I was 11. This picture also perfectly depicts how much of a little baby child I am, and how I am in no way prepared to be 20. Harry Potter is a large percentage of my life and I am in no way ashamed of that, PROUD SLYTHERIN. I love fashion but I hate the word. The 90's is my spirit era. And people think I'm nasty.
This blog is just gonna be a bunch of stuff to do with me. Probably hopefully more focussed on the fashion side of things but I don't even start uni for another month and a bit!
I would say I hope you enjoy it but I don't know who you are, and I don't really mind if you don't enjoy it.
So welcome, to my blog. Stay gross, get ugly.
