The story of a murderer

Yesterday was amazing. Harlow did my hair and make up again. We went for a bit of a different style. Inspired by 1960's Brigitte Bardot and also Rachel Hurd-Wood in the 2006 film adaptation of Perfume: The Story of a Murderer.

Rachel Hurd-Wood looks absolutely stunning with this red/orange hair, so much so that it inspired practically the whole photo shoot.
Dress: Lipsy
Headband: Equip


Obligatory Butterscotch picture, this is my beautiful baby who my blog title was inspired by, he's part Maine Coon, part Norwegian Forest Cat, he's perfect.

I don't know how many of you have read this book, but as with most Penguin books, it is a timeless classic. Very peculiar story line, but in a good way. I'd recommend it. 

But anyway, I had just finished doing one of the more challenging exams I have had to do this semester for Medical Physiology, so I was in the mood for celebrating. I ended up going out and watching the 1953 Marilyn Monroe classic How to Marry a Millionaire with a close friend of mine and then went out for a night on the town. It was a really nice day all round! I'll hopefully have some more lovely pictures by Harlow before the week is over to share with all of you cuties :)

but that's all for now~ <3 comment and follow beautifuls

  7. Awww, I adore the fact that you and your splendidly cute kitty have similarly hued hair. You two are just as sweet and beautiful as can possibly be. (My girl, Stella, who's curled up on my lap as I type this, and I are sending tons of hugs out to you from up here in Canada.)

    Thank you so much by your wonderfully nice comment (compliment!) on my vintage dirndl outfit today, honey, I sincerely appreciate it. I love your burgeoning blog, am following it, and eagerly look forward to future posts.

  12. Perfume is honestly my favorite book in the world! (and that's saying something because I work in a bookshop)
    Great photos! Jesse has the blue and white dress in your most recent post.
