Teen Queen UK

Today was the last of my Official GCSE Exams that I'm taking this academic year. You cannot even imagine how glad I am that I have no more exams to revise for this year! It feels great! The only things I have to worry about now are my results...

In the meantime, I have a cute little competition to take it off my mind! Its more of a Beauty Pageant than a competition, and here's how it works:

During Clothes Show Live last year, I was scouted and signed up for the Teen Queen UK Beauty Pageant. A few months later, I got news that I had got through the first stage of the competition. So I filled out the form and sent it off, and soon enough, I got through the second stage of the competition as well. The next step was to go to a Studio in London and get my photos professionally done for the competition. The whole experience was amazing! Then, my pictures were sent off to be judges, and now I'm on the last stage of the competition before the Live Finals! I'm up for public vote on the Teen Queen Website. I have until the 30th to get as many votes as I can; the two girls with the most votes will go through to the Live Finals. And here, is my contest entry...


Now, I don't expect to get through or anything, but if your from the UK then I would really appreciate if you guys would vote for me! All you do is TEXT TP43 TO 81319. Calls cost 75p + 1 standard network rate charge. 

What do you guys think of the photo? All in all, this competition has been a great experience, and once I know whether I'm through to the next round or now, I'll deffinately be posting about the whole experience in more detail. 

Thank for reading and take care everyone. I'll talk to you all very soon!!

Diamond Jubilee Weekend

Evening ladies!

As I write this, there is water trickling down my window after being wonderful enough to hold out for the last couple of days. In true British style, it starts to rain as soon as the last of the Diamond Jubilee celebrations end. Alas, what can we do?

Over the last couple of days many of us have witnessed the great celebrations taking part all over the country as Great Britain celebrates 60 years of Queen Elizabeth II. Various celebrations have taken place in London as well as numerous Street Parties across the UK. The Union Jack has been printed into our minds so that we see it whether its there or not due to the vigorous waving of the flag by British citizens. And once again, the UK comes together to celebrate a joyous event that will be marked down in history. This ladies, is the true greatness of Britain as we celebrate the Diamond Jubilee.










Thousands gathered to watch stars like JLS, Cheryl, Gary Barlow, Jessie J, Ed Sheeran, Will.I.Am and Stevie Wonder perform for Her Majesty and The Royal Family. Mr Gary Barlow did an incredible job organising the whole event, which went as smoothly as anyone could have asked for. At the end of the night, a spectacle of fireworks illuminated the sky in a collision of over 5000 fireworks. 

This for me was the highlight of the 4 day weekend and is what I had been looking forward to for a while. The artists that performed were amazing and the fireworks at the end were incredible. This weekend has been amazing as the nation came together to celebrate 6 decades of The Queen ruling this country, and has honestly made me so proud to be British!




I leave you with these last images, which are my own edits of a picture from yesterday of JLS with Cheryl and Ed. I hope everyone in the UK and all around the world enjoyed last night's concert as much as I did. If you would like to watch any of the Diamond Jubilee Specials which have been on TV this long weekend then you can watch them here, which is also where you can watch last night's concert if anyone missed it.

Take care beautifuls, and I will talk to you all very soon.
Lots of love,
Fahmida x

Met Gala 2012

Beyonce, Rihanna, Lana Del Rey & Jessica Alba. 
The Met Gala 2012 saw some eyebrows raise at Fashion choices for the night. Beyonce graced the red carpet with a see-through Givenchy Haute Couture number by Ricardio Tisci. Rihanna made an entrance in an embossed Tom Ford Dress. Lana Del Rey made an appearance in a  Metallic Floor Length Dress and Cape and Jessica Alba showed everyone the goddess that she is in a Gold Floor-Length number!
