Bimbos unite!

[InspiredBlue]

I have an awful headache, and I've had it since yesterday afternoon.

No school for me today. That also means no stalking the counter when they open for Petals & Peacocks.

I'll have my boyfriend go when he goes to work, but he doesn't start before noon today, and my little sister (my personal little MAC spy

) is going to check where she lives too. Hopefully one of them will get it for me. Otherwise this will be a painful and sucky day.

^i hope you arefeeling a bit better today sweetie

 

[InspiredBlue]

I'm feeling a little better at the moment, because I've taken every imaginable painkiller.

And my boyfriend got P&P for me.

Apparently it wasn't a popular color here, because I know they had 7 of them to begin with at the counter he went to, and there were 4 or 5 left when he was there almost 3 hours after they opened. Now I need to get an abort mission signal to my sister, so I don't end up with two tubes.

This Petals & Peacocks thing is turning into a (long, I'm sorry) anecdote. My sister wasn't answering her phone all day, and then suddenly called me to tell me she got me the lipstick. After I'd tried to call her for hours, and sent numerous texts to tell her to not buy it.

She was still in the department store when she called me, so she want back and tried to return it, but they wouldn't let her. So she exchanged it for Ever Hip for herself instead.
I think I might be driving my sister into MAC addiction.

Sister to me on the phone in an exited voice: "I now have a lipstick and zero money, but that's fine."

(She's 16.)

hee hee! your poor sister! it's sweet that she got you p&p.... just sucks that you had already got it by this point! but at least she gained a lippie! ever hip looks like a lovely blush!

hehe if she starts her collection at 16, she could have a truely awesome one by the time she's our age! hehehe

i'm sure she will love ever hip

 

[InspiredBlue]

Oh yes, she will surely be a huge MAC diva in a few years. She's already making lists of eyeshadows she wants, and sometimes she wears Russian Red to school!

I'll make it up to her next week when she comes to visit me. She's like a Uk size 6 so it's always fun to go and shop for her, everything fits amazingly.

Tell me about it. Sis said she wished she had my nose when we skyped earlier. Me: "And I wish I had your body, wanna trade?" She quickly realised that she was quite happy as it is.

i would like to be a 10/12, i think that would be nice, i'm currently on a strict diet and have lost a stone and a quarter... i think if i lose 1 or 2 more, i will be happy with my size, but alas, it gets harder and harder the more you lose!

wow! you have done amazingly well! and yes sadly we always loose wieght fast at first but then it slows to about 1lb a week! not cool! weirdly although i am big it's my arms that bother me. they are quite big and also have alot of muscle (i lift lots of heavy stuff at work everyday!) i feel my arms are very masculine

 

[Susanne]

I am UK size 6 as well

I will be 30 in October and I have been size 6 at least the last ten years.

Bimbos!

 

[InspiredBlue]

I don't even want to talk about my size, especially compared to what I used to be.

 

[LMD84]

morning bimbos! i am feeling a little more upbeat today which is good. although i am getting sligjhtly worried about the volcanic ash issue. me and nick won't be flying for 2 more weeks but i hope everything is sorted by then. currently there have been no flights in the uk whatsoever and that has never happened before.

 

[kittykit]

I've been a UK8 for the past 6 years. I was UK6 before I moved here. I love the European food especially the cheeeeseeeeee

I hope the volcanic ash issue will be soon over, my man is flying back via Heathrow next Wednesday... I haven't seen him for 2 weeks and I want my MAC (he got all those on my list. I'll see my Ever Hip soon

).

 

[Miss QQ]

Lou, hope you can fly off safely in two weeks time.

I used to be size 8/10 and now 6/8. My bottom is larger than my top and I'm skinny so it is hard to find clothes that fit nicely. That is why I like makeup more.

It is Saturday tomorrow but I have to work. I am very stressed and don't really want but what to do?

I've bigger bottom and smaller top, sometimes I've to get XS for my tops.

When I'm stressed, I go shopping *lol* but I've control over how much I should spend.

 

[InspiredBlue]

I am hugely pear shaped as well. No matter what size I am, all trousers gape in the back, since my waist is at least a size smaller than my hips and thighs.

The volcanic ash thing is bothering me too. My sister is supposed to come here next week, so I hope it is over by then. But on a less personal note, I can't help but think about how things would start to unravel if this were to go on for weeks or even months. Because that is technically possible according to the scientists. The last time this volcano erupted, in the 1800's, it was spewing ash for a whole year!
