Donald Trump's New Single

Fed up with Donald Trump's craziness? Or do you just wish someone would spice up Bieber's overplayed track? Either way, this song is hilarious!

After Prom Dramas

Now it is only a few months until our prom, some of my friends have been organising the after party. One of my friends has offered to have it at her house, and we have nearly the whole year going as well as some other friends from the year above or below. Alcohol is allowed and the parents will be upstairs, so it sounds like it is going to be a great night! My first house party here we come!

Some of the girls are having different dresses for the after prom party, but I would rather keep mine on. If I waste no time getting changed, I have more time to dance! Also, as my prom dress is short, it is perfect for the after party anyway. I'm not a fan of wearing long flappy dresses.

The only problem is that the prom and after party together is 7 and a half hours long! I am going to sleep for a week after that. I am really looking forward to it now though, even if it does seem a little excessive. It is something good to keep us going though the hard work needed for our GCSEs.

What are your thoughts on after prom?

Divide - His Best Yet?

I have Ed Sheeran's new album Divide and I am loving it! It is much more varied than his previous music, with the songs ranging from his standard guitar based folk tunes to Irish love songs and on the extended version, Mediterranean party tracks! I really like most of the songs on it, especially "Galway Girl" and my favourite, "What Do I Know?" As well as loving the simple, stripped back style, I particularly like the lyrics as I think they are very true and some up what I believe in. They are relevant to all of us, especially in the current political situation.

 

 
However, the big question is: Is it as good as his previous albums? That depends on the sort of music you like listening to really. If you like sweet love songs and upbeat storytelling tracks Divide is perfect. However, if you prefer Ed's stripped back folk songs, it is not your thing. Personally, I love all 3 of his albums, but Plus will always be the best for me. No matter how hard he tries, he just can't beat the A Team.

The Embroidery Trend

While I was out shopping yesterday, I noticed lots of clothes with flowers embroidered on them. Jeans, leather jackets, black dresses and khaki shirts, all with floral decoration. The contrast between these simple, slightly tomboyish styles and the ornate, pretty flowers creates an interesting look. As this is one of the new spring trends, I have collected all my favourites from around the web.

While the style of this shirt is quite masculine and wintery,
the flowers give it a more girly spring twist.

white of the fabric.
