Too School For Cool
We are Jim and Lolly
Batman and Robin
Tom and Jerry
Laurel and Hardy
(except we can't fight crime,
and neither of us is a mouse
or a cat
or particularly fat)
We're brother and sister,
and we're still at that phase where it's possible to be friends

And we wish that we could live that way

From Sydenham with love
We were so happy to reach ten followers last week, so thank you to those lovely ten, and to anyone else reading this. We're working on some ways to improve the blog, (a new camera would be nice!), so you should see some new features very soon. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

THE Coat
Lol wears:
COAT, Principles
black dress, charity shop
red ribbed tights, stolen from the mother
Jim went to the Flower Ssnake ceremony at Tate Britain yesterday, and got to watch a lady whip the christmas spirit out of the massive Norwegian spruce they have up as you come in. Meanwhile, Lol was answering Latin questions (boo) and reading one of Keats' letters to Fanny Brawne about every five minutes- they are beautiful, almost like sonnets. The everyday becomes magical in Keats' hands. Someday Lol would like her own Keats to write letters to her, Keats sans TB and another women but most definitely avec at least ten more inches to his 5 feet. Somehow Facebook just doesn't capture the sublime and beautiful quite as well.
PLUS: We're going out for pizza tonight, and we've both agreed to wear the clothes we bought each other for christmas, so we'll post up some pictures later on.

A girl can dream
We're not going to try and hide the fact that this is inspired (read, copied) from Hermione's forest look in the latest Harry Potter film, because quite frankly we don't think there is anything to be ashamed of. Who wouldn't want to be Hermione and look like Emma Watson does? We've been thinking of this outfit ever since we saw the Deathly Hallows, and we couldn't not do it today (it's freeeeeezing), on Lol's first day back at school. Coincidentally while Lol was learning about purges and purges and yet more purges in Stalin's Russia, Jim has been lounging around all day because he doesn't go back to school until Thursday! Lol hasn't seen him today yet (because he's off at the cinema right now, the dirty stopout), but she wouldn't mind betting that he didn't read any of his books, but has progressed pretty far with Fifa 11... Mind you, Lol's just started Tess of the d'Urbyvilles, but has ordered two more books from amazon right now, so neither of us is really sticking to our literary resolutions.

Take Centre Stage
Ok, you caught us, the second outfit is from a couple of days ago, but this is the last time we'll travel back in time to bulk out a post, we promise!

And everything is all right again
Meanwhile, Jim is belatedly reading the final Harry Potter, and would like to wish all you muggles out there a happy new-the-deathly-hallows-part-two-is-being-released year!
