			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last night I was supposed to go to a burlesque class with the lovely <a href="http://www.almostzara.com">Zara</a>. Unfortunately, I&#8217;ve come down with a weird cold / cough bug that&#8217;s rendered me grumpy and sofa-ridden when I should have been prancing about with a feather boa.</p>
<p>So in an attempt to cheer myself up late last night, I attempted my own little burlesque / pin-up girl homage in the privacy of my own bathroom. I never really wear my hair up, and you can probably see why. These are the kind of ridiculous photos that will a) come back to haunt me in a few years time and b) not be possible when I move in with the boy later this Summer. So enjoy while you can!</p>

<p>I&#8217;d like to tell you how I did the hair, but I really can&#8217;t. It&#8217;s neat in the front, but at the back there&#8217;s all kinds of partying going on. It involved masses of dry shampoo, a lot of kirby grips and a dozen of those annoying <a href="http://www.scissorsdirectltd.co.uk/prodimages/476415747SectionClips.Boxandcard.60531.2(571x886).jpg">metal sectioning clips</a> that either slide out or get ridiculously tangled up. I really don&#8217;t know how Bernie Dexter does it.</p>
