God Dammit!!!!

This is an approximation of how I look and sound right now - having had fashion related annoyances all week resulting in me squealing GODDAMMIT! in a Cartman worthy mini tantrum. First my white winkle pickers order gets cancelled, then my Chelsea Rebelle trews don't fit, then today I rip the pocket off my favourite blazer! It may not exactly be life changing stuff I'm talking about here, but Godammit I wanted the shoes and the trousers!!!

However on a cheerier note, my (hopefully) fabby new camera arrived today.

My little £60 job no longer wants to play at blogging, so I went all out and bought a pretty decent one. This will mean that all Irina comparisons will finally be put an end because whilst my old camera was temperamental at best, it did a good job at taking quite flattering pictures. This baby will take no prisoners, which means all my lines, pores and non Irina-esque flaws will be brought to you in all their glory. You lucky, lucky people! But, it also means that colour should hopefully be much more accurate and I will be able to take pictures without the flash having to be on all the time.

Good choice - I love my D40. The pics turn out so well!

[indie]

Hey I want that camera too!

[Fruchtzwerg]

Good choice to take Nikon! My bf changed recently from Canon to Nikon and we won't regret that! D40 is an excellent choice. I'm thinking of getting a Nikon as well :)

[sister Wolf]

Godammit is right! I'm saying a loud Godammit on your behalf.

I love my D40. I hope you love yours too!

Hey, just thought you'd like to know that they are selling a similar pair of winklepickers at Office:

i think that new nikon will win to all the tragedy before. jiji. my english suck, by the way.
i love your blog
and i'm about to buy that camera too!

I'll be eyeing this one, too. My game little camera is so limited, I spend all my time color-correcting. Bleah.

You'll look beautiful as yourself. You always do.

ohh lovely camera. I've got an old film Nikon but i don't know how to use it! I just pretend i do.

[Drusilla]

Which reminds me, I should save up for a camera too...I'm tired of hardly ever being able to post pictures, and the Mothership's old Sony is a horror of unflattering light.

Lil, those are some real purty shoes!
Mina, you are beyond cruel!! Oh, how I LOVE those shoes!
Street.style, I may still end up going the way of pretending to know how to use this camera, since I'm pretty camera illiterate.

My boyf uses a D60 and the quality is insane (compared to my little Leica). Good choice of camera but hey, I'm still 100% convinced that you are the twin sister of Irina! Hehehehe

Isuka, the only other comparison I really get is Cher. "a young Cher" to be precise. Nice.

[Aja]

I have this camera and I love it. My blogging photos still need some work. . . but I do love my camera, it's so much fun!

[Vanessa]

CHER!? That is so far off. I'm actually laughing so hard right now!
