And so it begins...

Flower garland, made for a recent dance show, Top- Primark £6, love the little beaded cross details!, Skirt-£30 Yayer, such an easy style to wear, nice and breezy!




So last night was the beginning of the Olympics and I am so so excited! I love watching any sort of sports and I feel very patriotic! To celebrate the opening ceremony we had some friends over for a bbq, then watched the whole thing following our Olympic drinking game rules, fair to say by the end of the 3 hour show we all tipsily hobbled off to bed!
After wondering quite how we would compare to the spectacular that was the Bejing opening ceremony, I was so so impressed. It was interesting, colourful, bonkers and totally British! Highlights included the Queen parachuting in with James Bond, Mr Bean playing the keyboards, Micheal Fish and his hurricane and the Arctic Monkeys!
Had a great night watching it and can't wait to see the rest of the sports!

Is everyone else exited???

  4. I really enjoyed the Opening Ceremony, but my god did you need the drinking game to get through the 2 hour parade! I was nearly falling asleep but wanted to see the fireworks so made it through the whole 4 hours in the end.

  5. The Opening ceremony was fantastic, but I liked the Athens 2004 and the Beijing 2008 opening ceremonies more..What I like more though is that everyone is so excited and people are so happy.Its like a whole nation celebrating!!! :)Fabulous feeling!

  6. In my opinion the Arctic Monkeys made the whole night! But I love them, and am horrifically biased, so may not be the best judge... Oh, that drinking game would've RUINED me, but I was on a "casual" night out, so watched it the next morning. Glad you were within easy distance of your bed! xx
