The hour glass, or 'curvy', figure - the icon of 'sexy' and yet the biggest pain in the butt to dress. For those that are unfamiliar with the term 'hour glass' figure - it's basically the Marilyn Monroe curves, the coca-cola bottle silhouette and the figure the Kardashians have taken to extremes. It means curvy, [...]
Never have I ever sat on the floor sobbing, the night before a Uni deadline, as my boyfriend used a miniature comb to untangle my unintentional dreadlocks for hair *drinks* During my second year of Uni, I stayed round my boyfriends, the night before a deadline (mistake number 1). I thought I was prepared but [...]
