Guess who's back

Guess who's back? ME.

Guess what else is back? Coloured hair.

Currently, randomly coloured or dip-dyed hair seems to be one of the new "in" things. I love the whole idea of being able to change your hair colour. I don't know why, I just do. BUT, personally, I don't think I would bevause a) my mum would probably have a heart-attack and b) I'm too scared.....
However, I have always loved a red-head. I genuinely feel jealous when I see people with reddy or ginger hair. Weird right? Here are just a few girls who I think do an excellent job of displaying their fiery locks.

Sally Mann (WARNING: NUDITY IS PRESENT IN SOME PHOTOS)

I have a new favourite photographer. SALLY MANN. I went to her exhibition the other day at the Photographers Gallery and I was literally blown away.

She uses antique film cameras to take the photos, and then often uses the back of her truck as a temporary darkroom. This means that lots of her photos have marks, drips and stains on them, which makes me love them even more.

The exhibition was a compilation of three different sets, with my favourite prints being from the series, "Immediate Family". It was a truly brilliant exhibition, and below are a few photos of hers.

Rock en Seine

Now I know that going to T in the Park is completely out of reach, and every other festival in the UK which I would want to go to is either sold out or too expensive, I've decided to branch out. By branch out, I mean the little hop across the pond to FRANCE! I was just randomly searching and came across Rock en Seine. It's in Paris (I think....) and whether it's good or not, I have no clue, but the acts performing sound really cool.

These include ALL TIME LOW, THE KOOKS, FOALS, MASSIVE ATTACK, LCD SOUNDSYSTEM, PAOLO NUTINI, TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB, PLAN B, STEREOPHONICS and THE TING TINGS.

These are spread over three days (27th August - 29th August), and for a three day pass, it's only £87! I know with travel and accomodation it would be more, but considering for only two days (no accomodation) T in the Park is £170, I think it's alright. Of course I would much rather go to T in the Park, but for me, this is a very good second place. I'm currently trying to persuade my mum that I could go as a birthday treat, and although my chances are slim, there is still hope!

I'll post the outcome very soon.... WISH ME LUCK!

Apologies

WOW, I only just realised today that I haven't posted in about two weeks! But, as I have exams looming over me, I will have to post-pone my blogging for now. I promise that either this weekend or next there will be a truckload of post!
