=D

They are called Opera Wallets! And there are hundreds of them on eBay. I'm so excited right now. I'm going to go buy like five =D

what are they called?




I am in LOVE with this style of wallet and have wanted one for aaages now but I have no idea what they are specifically called or even if they have a specific name. Do you know?
This photo was taken off eBay and it was listed as 'hard case wallet'. I have literally typed everything I can think of into the eBay search bar. I even just typed in wallet and sifted through hoping to come across some that shared a specific name.
The only place I can find that sells them around here is Sportsgirl and they only stock like 2, and they are very small and not very nice.

If you can help me solve my mystery, I would be eternally grateful :)

ouch

Today I fell asleep in front of the heater and I woke up to find that my entire lower back has been burned. It looks like I have a weird rash or something. Wearing clothes has been very painful. I've been walking around in a bra most of the day. I have no idea what I'm going to do when I have to actually wear a top tomorrow, ech. And I am dreading my morning shower, ouch. Is there stuff you can put on these kinds of burns? Bepanthen does not work lol.

it's my birthday soon

I want the following things...



Chanel wallet.
I desperately want the wallet in the third picture, at over $700 I highly doubt it. A girl can dream though right?


iPod Touch
My iPod is literally full, cannot fit another song on there. I have one of the old, old, old school nano's. It got me through high school and I love it but I just need more than 4gig. I want a 32gig one and I have a sneaking suspicion that my boyfriend is planning on buying me one for my birthday =D

A lifetime supply of Curly Wurlys. Enough said.

Lady Gaga Heartbeat Headphones.
Pretty sure these would look damn sexy with a new iPod Touch. Blinged out headphones. Love it. I can't decide if I want the red or the silver though.

The Art of Tim Burton
This book is a must have for me. I am a Tim Burton lover from wayy back and I'm going to see his exhibition on my birthday. Yay! I want this book so bad but ACMI has already sold out of it, damn.

Another tattoo
I have had my next tattoo planned for a few months now, but I like to sit on them for about 6 months or so before I get them to make sure I really do want them. I'm not going to go in to too much detail because I'm not really a fan of showing/sharing my tattoos with anyone. Mine are very personal and private.

Designer glasses
I would looove a pair of gorgeous designer glasses but my lenses alone cost almost a thousand dollars because I have some bullshit rare seeing problem. If I had these, I would actually go out in public wearing glasses. Unless you are immediate family, my boyfriend or my best friends you will never, ever see me with my current glasses on.

And that's my birthday wishlist so far :)

necklace storage?

I need some storage ideas ladies. Because I live in a rented house with an asshole of a landlord, we are not allowed to put ANYTHING on the walls, doors etc. I desperately needed somewhere to hang my necklaces though so I bought some sticky hooks and put them up on the inside of my closet doors so that when we have inspections they don't get seen. This is no longer an option because I have way too many necklaces and not enough space for hooks, as it is I have about 10 necklaces per hook. I've looked into those cute little necklace holder jewellery box type things but they won't work because most of my necklaces are long, I keep my shorter, expensive necklaces in the boxes they came in. My storage is similar to the image below...


So I want to know, how do you store your necklaces? Especially longer necklaces?

update

I am incredibly sorry that I haven't blogged in a few days. I have had the craziest week. Not the good kind of crazy either. I'm not going to go in to too much detail but a few very personal things happened this week and I'm also really sick.

I have still been reading everyones posts and commenting on a few.
I'm going to ditch the 30 day thing I was doing aswell. I was finding myself only blogging about what the list entailed and often I didn't even really want to blog about those particular things. So I am giving myself free reign again.

What I have been doing this week;
-Dealing with my personal issues
-Watching a lot of movies
-Trying to get in to a doctor[can't get in until the 21st of July]
-I have basically been a hermit, I haven't been able to face the world this week
-Watched 3 seasons of Keeping Up With The Kardashians
-Buying a lot of stuff online
-Reading
-Feeling sorry for myself
-Looking in to some study courses

I have some ideas for future posts, but I will do those on the weekend probably.

I thought that for now, I'd just share some photos that I really like.

Photograph Challenge Day 01

This was actually super hard as almost all my photos from the last 10 years are on my parents computer at their house, and now I just use my boyfriends laptop that he already had when I moved in with him. It doesn't have a lot of memory left so I haven't bothered transferring the pictures from my parents computer either. I need an external hard drive or something, but I don't know a lot about that stuff.

Anyways, so this is one of the only photographs I can find of myself, with no one else in the picture because I'm not huge on(or good at) taking photos of myself.
This picture is from the roadtrip back from seeing Lady Gaga in March. I'm not sure why, but I really like this picture. It just reminds me of how much fun the whole weekend was and the people I got to share it with. It was honestly the best 48 hours of my life.

Day04: Favourite book

This one is such a hard one as I am a total bookworm and I have so so many favourite books. I actually had to go sit in front of my bookshelf and try to come to a conclusion on my favourites. I decided that these are my top 3. They are all Stephen King books, because he is my favourite author.

The Shining by Stephen King
If you don't know what this is about it's basically about a man, his wife and their son who go to a hotel during the winter to do maintenance. They are isolated for months because of the heavy snow. The son has a gift and the man goes crazy. It is an absolutely fantastic read and if you have seen the Jack Nicholson movie version, the movie has NOTHING on the book. I cannot even begin to list how many things the movie left out. Stephen King himself hated the movie so much that he made a mini series of The Shining which includes a lot more of the important things but just isn't very good in my opinion.

Misery by Stephen King
This book is about an author who gets in a car crash and a crazed fan rescues him and holds him hostage at her house in a remote area. Once again, there has been a movie made based on this book which I really enjoyed. It's very rare that I like the movie after reading the book it's based on but this(and Harry Potter) is the exception.

Carrie by Stephen King
This book is about a teenage girl who is telekenetic, and very sheltered from the facts of life due to her overly religious mother. I'm sure everybody has heard the saying 'More blood than Carrie at the prom' or something along those lines, lol. The movie of this book is absolutely TERRIBLE. The book is quite short and really a good, if not disturbing read. But disturbing is something Stephen King does very well.

So these are my favourite books by my favourite author. I really do have a lot more favourites but I didn't want to make this post too long. I also apologise for my terrible skills at explaining what books are about.

I hope everyone is having a great week

Day03: Favourite tv programme.

I am a movie &tv show fanatic. I own almost 500 dvds and I have a one terabyte hard drive that is nearly full with movies and tv shows. At first I thought I could pick just one tv show or maybe 2 but after thinking, I have realised I can only narrow it down to 5. Here they are...
Grey's Anatomy
I never watched this when it first aired on tv. I borrowed the first season off a friend about a year later and I fell in love. I own all the seasons and am very sad that George and Izzy are no longer in it. This show is perfection. I've never liked medical shows much, Grey's Anatomy is the exception.
Favourite charcter; Miranda Bailey
Law & Order SVU
The best crime drama I have ever seen in my life. I am absolutely obsessed with this show and I watch the seasons again & again. I know who the bad guy is within the first 30 seconds of every episode, and there are over 200 episodes. You're probably thinking I need a life right about now? And you are probably right lol
Favourite character; Odafin Tutuola!
Summer Heights High
I'm not sure that this gets aured anywhere other than Australia or if any of you bloggers not from Aus have heard of it? I LOVE IT! It was one of the funniest shows I have ever seen in my life. I even went and bought a shirt that says 'I love your bins, they're so random' ahahaha. I'm highly depressed that there is only one season. My lovely boyfriend randomly surprised me and bought this home for me some time last year. I love those gifts you get for absolutely no reason.
Favourite character; Ja'mie
Kath & Kim.
So so SO Australian. This is one of the funniest Australian shows I've ever seen. I'm actually not a big fan of 99% of Australian moves and tv shows. They just generally suck. But this is absolutely amazing. If you haven't seen the real version of this and have only seen the American version, DO NOT JUDGE. I watched the American version and it is fucking awful. It is nothing like the real Kath&Kim show.
Favourite character; Kim
The Mighty Boosh
I love absolutely everything about this show. There aren't even words. I just freaking love it. I am dyinggg for Boosh to come to Australia so I can go see them.
Favourite character; The Moon or Old Gregg


What are your thoughts on my favourites?
