Breton striped Lace Up Top: Topshop
Boyfriend shorts: Topshop
Chunky sandals: Topshop

Well, hahahah! It was only when I started writing the list of Items above that I realised I am in fact wearing all Topshop, oopsies. Who am I?

Anywhooo... we needed to test some stuff out (lighting/composition etc) in the studio the other day & apart from the fact I can't snap my fingers & make a model appear they are also bloody expensive so I stood in for a 10 minute mini shoot. As you can probably tell, my eyes are full of hay fever hence the squinty eye business in the last shot (':

At least you can see my new favorite top anyway. I tend to only buy basics from Topshop, mainly denim, shirts & jersey tees as everything is still pretty expensive, boo! even though It was £22 I am really glad I bought it. It love a good ol' striped tee & the lace up detail on the front of this one is really neat!

This is pretty much the kind of thing I wear to work on a daily basis when I know I need to be comfortable, ha, I dress for comfort a lot these days (':

What do you think of this outfit? Do you mind me doing the odd outfit/personal post every so often? Let me know in the comments or you can tweet me @sugarpea_

'It's all I ever wanted'

………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

I haven't watched the finale episode yet & wont be until late tonight so no spoilers ^_^ but since I haven't posted any of my drawings for a while, I thought it would be fun to celebrate the end of season 5 Game Of Thrones with a GOT themed digi sketch I did a little while ago.

I have already drawn Arya
Cersei & Daenerys (click the links to see) & Sansa was part of the project I set myself too. I never draw human portraits but I have had fun getting to grips with these ladies faces & I am happy with the outcome of all four.

I love Sansa. She has grown so much as a character over the past 5 seasons & she has been especially good in season 5, she's almost as badass as her sister now! I love it when she has her hair down rather than plonked on her head like a croissant so I drew a slightly earlier version of her, I hope you like it.

Now I just need to get to grips with drawing mens faces. Why are they so much harder to draw?! I was going to try & doodle Stannis but after what he did last week, I can't bring myself to look at him! >.< Maybe I'll have a go at sketching Ramsey or Joffrey? Any suggestions are welcome :) 

What do you think of this digi sketch? Who do you think I should draw next? Let me know in the comments or you can tweet me @sugarpea_

S U G A R P E A o n T V


Well, isn't this exciting!

A few months ago, I met Chyaz at the Preloved bloggers event in Manchester, along with a load of other amazlings (Terri & Lima)

Chyaz got in touch with me a few weeks ago to tell me that she had been working on an exciting, top secret project & asked if I would like to be involved. I was pretty nervous about saying yes but opportunities like this don't come along often so I agreed.

So, on Friday, I spent the afternoon with Chyaz & Lima on the show Talk Manchester. It was live *eeek* & I am so glad I did it. Everything was really relaxed & wen't really smoothly. Even though I got butt cramp in my left cheek hahhahah! (I'm blaming it on the nerves!) Chyaz is such a natural presenter & put both me Lima & I at ease.

We talked about trending topics on twitter that day which included #fridayfeeling, Jack the Ripper, video games, fashion & much more. It was such a mixed bag, it was great.

So if you live in the Manchester area, pop on freeview channel 8 & have a gander at That's Manchester!

I just wanted to say another big thank you to Chyaz again for having us on her new show!

Let me know in the comments if you saw it or if you are planning on tuning in, in the future (or tweet me
