Wednesday Waffle Weeks 20, 21 + 22 | Supernatural, Dior, Johanna Basford + New Job.

Wow, it's been a busy 3 weeks. I started my new job on the 26th of April and have been training since then! All hands on stuff and learning on the job, but it's been intense. I'm so tired constantly and every spare moment at home has involved Supernatural. I've become obsessed, strange considering I thought I probably wouldn't like it. I've halfway through season 2, I love that I've still got 6 seasons to watch! Still got two seasons of Gilmore Girls to go as well. Another show I've started is Sons of Anarchy, only seen the first episode but digging it so far. That's right, digging it.
Any show suggestions?

Last Friday I went to the opening of the latest exhibition at the DCA. The exhibition is by Johanna Basford, she mainly does black and white illustrations which are amazing. She graduated from the same art college as me, and when we had our degree show she designed our invitations.
Check out her work here, it's beautiful!

In other news I picked up my glasses today. I had a bit of a splurge and bought Dior ones! They are amazing, I'm in love with them. I'll take some photos soon probably, I'm still getting used to my reflection. For now here's a link to them.
Drooool.

Ok, so that's basically it, nothing else to report! Just wanted to check in and keep up with these posts (yes, I'm aware it's been about a month since my last one, oops).


One last thing, Cosmopolitan are taking nominations for their 2013 Blog Awards. If you think I deserve it I would be eternally grateful if you would recommend me in the Best New Beauty award!? It only takes a minute! Shameless self promotion going on here,

Oscars 2013 | My Favourite Gowns.

Did anyone else watch the Oscars last night? Kyle and I stayed up until 1.30am to watch and they were on until 5am, but I'm not working today so it's alright, I got to sleep in. We also watched a little of the Red Carpet beforehand, it was great hearing the interviews and seeing what everyone was wearing!
First off I thought Seth MacFarlane was an odd choice as host, maybe they wanted the ceremony to come across more light hearted. Which they did succeed in doing, but it seemed a little forced. I'm not a huge fan of Seth if it's not Family Guy related. I did enjoy Daniel Radcliffe and JGL's singing and dancing, but that's about it.

Anyway, on to the dresses! I'm not going to do any worst dressed choices because I don't think it's very nice and there are plenty of websites and magazines that will have lists like that.

Just a warning, I do not own any of these images, they are mainly from Getty and Wire images.

Daddys Little Girl Ain't a Girl No More | Photography by Hedi Slimane ft. Frances B Cobain.

Hey! Today I want to share with you one of my favourite sets of photographs ever. They are by Hedi Slimane, he's a fashion designer who also does photography. He shoots portraits, usually in black and white. Slimane has worked for Dior and now YSL, he also photographed Lady Gaga for The Fame Monster album cover. If you want to see more of his work you can check out his website. To learn more about him, see here. He seems like a fascinating and inspirational person.

On to the photographs I mentioned earlier. They are a series of portraits of Frances Bean Cobain, the daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love for those of you who might not know. They are from July 2011 and I've been in awe of them ever since.
She is absolutely beautiful, as you might imagine. Her eyes are so stunning and her style is bloody amazing! I also think her eyebrows are perfect. Girl crush alert!
I won't go into any more detail, I'll let the photos speak for themselves.
