i tripped and fell onto fast fashion websites and here are the things i like (UO, Zara and ASOS)

yellowroseroad

This is a short one. For the most part, the items here are things I had a sudden need to own, that I looked for on the fast fashion sites I use (Urban Outfitters and Zara mostly). And then there are a few extra ones because once I’m on these sites I’m staying for a while. As usual the post was a long term work in progress that ended with the ordering or a few of these items. The Georgia way. Continue reading “i tripped and fell onto fast fashion websites and here are the things i like (UO, Zara and ASOS)”

i went to gay’s the word and here are the books i wanted but didn’t get // a book wishlist

yellowroseroad

I finally went to Gay’s The Word a few weeks ago and picked up a few books. I took pictures on my phone of even more and will keep eyes out for these books everywhere I go. I found one I took a picture of 5 minutes after leaving the shop, doing this really works.

10 shows that were cancelled too early

yellowroseroad

I am pretty hesitant about doing tv show posts during the strikes, but this post is very much a screw you to the big wigs and those in control of pay and workers rights so I think it’s okay. Not every show gets to live out it’s full life. And shows with a focus on lgbt people or people of colour are disproportionally cancelled. This year has seen a lot of cancellations, most of which that I’ve seen focus on queer people or poc. Here is my list of shows that I wish we got more of.

artists i’ve discovered this year // my new favourite bands and solo artists

yellowroseroad

I missed doing posts like this, I used to do posts on new pop artists really regularly but I stopped listening to music like that as much and for sure stopped hunting it out like I did. But I have found a few new artists that I am obsessed with. These are those. From a range of genres and a few are bands which is very cool I think.

what i eat in a day (a lot apparently) // vegetarian food

yellowroseroad

There is a lot of food here. I think I ate something every like two hours from about 10am. Because I was hungry and wanted food. Truly do not know if this is a lot, but I think there are days where I would eat in increments like this but just not have basically meals as I did on this day. I think also working for a few days, by the time I get to my first day off I just want to eat a lot whenever because I can. You’ve seen what I eat on other days, this is not standard for me and I really have no idea why I’m still trying to justify this and defend myself against nothing.

my favourite telfar shopping bag colours

yellowroseroad

There was just another bag security, and seeing it made me want to do a really quick post on my favourite colours. I participated in the first bag security program and got a small bubble-gum shopping bag which I don’t use as much as I should I always say I’m going to get one in the next but never do. Now I’ve written this post I really want to. Maybe next time. Continue reading “my favourite telfar shopping bag colours”

my 16 songs of the summer 2023 // summer playlist

yellowroseroad

This year has not been my favourite for releases, I don’t think I’ve been very quiet about that. But there have been some great songs for the summer. Or for my summer at least. So whether you are having a dance, in a car, at a beach. There is a song in this mix for your summer. Here is a super quick post with my songs of the summer. I will probably never do this again but I had a major hankering to do this. Continue reading “my 16 songs of the summer 2023 // summer playlist”

25 books i tried reading but did not like and did not finish

yellowroseroad

Sometimes not liking a book is just timing based but really a missed try with a book really puts me off and I have sooo many books to read that I will just donate a book after a failed attempt unless for some reason I like have to finish. Basically I don’t have a lot to say about a lot of these and I don’t want to mumble so here are 25 books I gave a go and may give another go in the future but that I do not own anymore. The synopses are taken from Goodreads. Continue reading “25 books i tried reading but did not like and did not finish”
