Things that make you go "..thanks?" - OOTN

I've received a few backhanded compliments over the past few days, ones which make you go "..thanks?"

When we were walking home from the club on Tuesday I made friends with a friend of a friend, he was perfectly nice, civil. Bit strange, but we all are in Wales. Until he mentioned that me and his mum liked the same thing, and then "Well, you're a bit hotter than my mum" I'm sure his mum is gorgeous, but he didn't exactly win my heart with this. I argued back and he said "Well you don't know what I meant, that coulda been a little bit hotter, or a lot a bit hotter" yeah.

I was sitting on the back of some comfy seats in the bar of a club on Wednesday giving my feet a rest and chatting to my flatmate. When a guy walked past, he was hot - but that's beside the point, he walked past and gave me a bit of a look and I ignored it, so then he walked backwards and said "You know, you're absolutely gorgeous!" So I smiled and said thank you very much, so then he said "Well, I think you are, it might be just the light" oh. So then he stepped backwards and scrutinised me. A real charmer that one.

The level of classiness in Bangor is unbelievable.

I mention it alot, but my flatmates are truely amazing: 
On Wednesday they took revenge on a guy for me. This said guy, has been lovely for the past few weeks, but how wrong I was. I wont go into details, cause he doesn't deserve that. However, my flatmate 'accidently' bumped into him and nearly pushed him over, and my other flatmate gave him such awful evil looks whenever he came near all night. Made him feel sufficiently awkward until he climbed onto the stage to escape us.
Immature, but revenge is sweeeeet!

Here's what I wore :)


Dress: New look - from the children's range. Was on sale!
Tights: Peacocks flesh tights, I was wearing 2 pairs cause it's freezing outside!
Necklace:Internacionale - again sale item.
Nails: (if you can see) Rimmel I <3 Lasting Finish 030 Double Decker Red
Heels: New Look heels featured in many posts!
I added a thin orange belt for the cinched in waist after  took the photos!
