Mr. Whaite is a pop artist and neon obsessive,or so say his blog. Go have a look at his blog right now and treat your eyeballs for a Thursday.

(via Broadsheet.ie)

 now I have the Back to the Future song in my head..

I LOVE these, don't you internet? I want one so bad. Check out Mr. Whaite's Twitter for more.

..also check out my twitter if you need some more of my babble in you life.

if only a cartoon could be the president

Love this cartoon by Niall O'Loughlin, as the presidential race heats up the main question is are YOU registered to vote?

Fear not, Register here or ask me to check for you..

Another caricaturist I'm a big fan of is Allan Cavanagh, who was working with me over the weekend. I'm only thrilled with his portrait of me.....wouldn't you be!?

this week..

This guy

Steve Jobs probably inspired more people than ever as he passed away on Thursday. My news feed was full of 'big' quotes, but for once I didn't mind the spammyness of it all.

Annie Mac was in all week for Fearne Cotton, and so i was introduced to some serious tunes. I love that she's irish, but for some reason on Irish  radio stations, i'm just not impressed with the dj's.


its a bit like the music on Ci Ci Cavanagh's blog, which i LOVE! Go listen now, its just like having background music to your life. I imagine it would be the music to the show about me, if i was in a Truman Show kinda world.

Also I decided i'm going to balayage my hair (whats that, a year late you say?..you shut up), my hair is kinda sorta naturally balayaged (in your face). I would love to go with peachy tones, as pink would be a bit much in work at the moment, ala Lauren Conrad

..and finally i started an art class (i know, check me out)..


currently drawing an hopefully painting a lot of Tim Walker photos

This is a poor selection of his work, go buy the book, it's unreal. Every photo is like something you may have imagined once and there it is, in print!


and for now  i bid you adieu...has anyone gone into Dublin Contemporary yet? I must this weekend, I hear good things.

On facebook? OMG, me too!

#LFW

This weekend i was working at a small slice of London Fashion Week at the Roberto Cavalli Party in London. (I was meant to stay the week but unfortunately the National Ploughing Championships are on and i'm working at them too - I KNOW, lets never speak of this again)....anyways.......

As you can imagine Roberto Cavalli likes thinks big, over the top and with no expense spared. My eyes were nearly falling outta my head the entire time, the chandeliers, the canapés, the fashion, the fake boobs, the celebs.... it was like being in an episode of the only way is Essex but x100,000,000 (no exaggeration!)

Unfortunately i was run of my feet showing Pixie Lott where the toilets were and the like to take any photos, but all i can tell you is that Una Healy from the Saturdays does not look preggers but is a babe. Cher Loyd is a midget, and a babe, and all the cast of Made in Chelsea are babes.

 (OK, enough name dropping)

Now go check out Rosemary MacCabe's Fash Blog as she will give you the real Fashion Week insight!

..or here on Grazia

 on here on the Guardian Blog

apologies for no pics but i'm distracted watching Made in Chelsea!

counting sheep

Five subtle hints to suggest you are not getting enough sleep..

• you wake up after a short 'apres-work nap' assuming that the clock saying 7:00 means its time to get ready for work. (You know you're really really tired if you actually get in the car and head to the office). STOP its 7pm, there's still time to watch online telly and eat toast.
• skipping meals/bathroom breaks - because that would be too much effort
• seeing sheep - check your surroundings, are you on a farm? NO? Ok you're now so tired you're visualizing those sheep you used to count
• sending long and detailed descriptions of toilet facilities to the wrong person, or just any old email to the wrong person
• getting into the shower with your socks still on

These are some or all things that I may have experienced, enjoy the below images while I go to bed.

 too tired to put pants on is also a telling sign

all photos from Google*

*you would not believe how many photos of sleeping babies, kittens or puppy's there are on google, you should thank me for sparing you.

Festivals forever

I am currently mourning the summer festivals. I did quiet well this year and attended Sea Sessions in Bundoran, which was wet, Oxegen for the day and saw Beyonce who was preggers and we didnt know, Castlepalooza and of course my favorite Electric Picnic. I cant think of one highlight, but sitting inside listening to the rain this evening does make me wish i was in a field with glowsticks, running to a tent to see a band. 
All in all Irish summers are just fine by me so quit you're whining and get you 2012 tickets!
here are some of my fave outfits all stolen from facebook pics..

..until 2012


for next year i hope we have more feathers and turbans, as modeled here by my friend Aisling

 i predict we'll be sporting the turban by next year (fingers crossed)
