DASH shop is epic!

Don't hate me. Yes, I know shopping in the store of reality tv queen Kim Kardashian is a bit, well, not credible, but I actually love their store! There's super unusual items in there and I found this little play suit which I just had to have. 

I just love it, it's gorgeous!! So lots of 💖💖 to whomever picks the clothing for this place. It's on Melrose Avenue. 

One thing I did do yesterday though, is think I could walk all the way from the I10 motorway to Ciconnes (definitely my favourite restaurant!). Well, it did look a little far on google maps, but I sort of started walking...and then it got too close to get a cab. So I kept walking....and walking...and then I'd made it half way and I was flat out exhausted. I must have walked 5 miles in 100 degree heat. Never again!!!

$9 for juice and $4 for food...

So...still in LA. Yeah, I know I told everyone I was coming home on the 20th, but I just couldn't get on that plane. My body just wouldn't do it. I need to be here, not in rainy UK. I am counting the days until I can move here. 

Every single day the sun shines...and I've lost at least 6 pounds in weight. I have no idea why, maybe because driving in LA terrifies me and I've been walking everywhere, but hey I'm not complaining! 

There's one thing that massively confuses me though. $9 for apple juice?? Really?? That's just lunacy, come on. And apparently that's a normal price, so probably the reason why everyone is so super skinny here. They can't afford to eat....well....that was until I discovered happy hour. Not just for drinks, but for food. Whaaheyyyy. $4 for a black truffle hamburger. Happy Kitty. 

Just a little OMFG but The Man In The High Castle comes out today on Amazon. I think that might just be my favourite show of the year. Gripping Sci-fi TV.

SISSY THAT WALK OBSESSION

I am just obsessed with this song right now! Mainly because I'm just totally fangirling over Seann's performance of it on Saturday, but also because it's a sick tune and I'm in love. Haha! Here's the video...

Diva life in LA is fabulous...

I'm going to just blog a little bit about LA, because, well, I'm here, and sitting at Chateau Marmont with a cup of tea. I'm literally obsessed with this place. They have old records in the lounge and superfast wifi with comfy seats. I've been sitting here for hours!

It's my birthday on the 15th (I'd love a Tesla Model S please) and I fancied a beach rather than rainy England. So, while the studio was out of action for a few weeks due to a tech problem, I thought I'd jump on a plane and see what happens.

I've had some adventures here to be honest. I've been here on and off since I was 19, and the first time I nearly got a record deal with a major label - took me 2 days and I was being driven around in limos. I didn't even have pink and purple hair back then, so I know it's not that! Having crazy hair helps though. I am basically fitting right in here.

Just looked at the menu, ouch. Salad is $15, so instead I'll be drinking tea and reminding myself that nobody in LA actually eats. I'm telling myself it's best to just look fabulous and ignore the fact that my stomach is slowly eating itself from the inside out. The best diet is the broke diet. Leave your wallet at home and you will always fit into your jeans. HAHA!

When I first came back from LA when I was 19, I wrote something on my computer that I kind of added to over the years - I thought I'd share it with you guys. It is still true...I just loved it.

REASONS WHY LA IS BETTER THAN LONDON

Valet Parking (For those that don't know me, I don't drive. I crash)
Drive in Starbucks (For when I can handle driving)
Mexican Food
24 hour diners
Hash browns
24hr mexican burrito stands
Nice waitresses that actually care about your food
Creative people (as opposed to fake creatives who admire their beards more than their writing)
Vegas is only 3 hours away (as opposed to 13 hours stuck at the back in economy with a screaming baby)
Cheesecake Factory
Cruise control on cars (now they even have cars that drive themselves. Hurry up UK)
The beach is really close
Automatic cars
Cars in general
International House of Pancakes
Hot weather
£3 all day parking
Insanely cheap uber rides where a 1 hour journey will cost £5
Hot weather
Hot music scene
My friends are there (sad face, true)
Award shows I can go to
Everything is cheaper
You can get on the property ladder without selling your kidneys
Pool Parties
Magic Mountain
Disneyland
People are generally nicer
Florida is £200 away
Petrol is the same price as bottled water (well, its close)

Obviously, this list is a bit tongue in cheek, but yeah, LA rules.

My X Factor Blog for The Mirror!

Just a quick one, but if you didn't already know - I'm currently blogging for the Mirror Online about X Factor each week. I am so excited to get this opportunity to write something each week, and I've got so into this series. I think it started slow, but since bootcamp it's really picked up and Sunday night was just insane! What was Mason Noise thinking? I can't actually work out whether he is incredibly smart and switched on, or just insanely dumb. My PR friend Rob thinks it's the former. I'm just so confused.

And...I actually think Sean Miley Moore can win. At least, I hope so, because I'm really fed up of having super bland singers with zero personality win this show. It's about time that the X Factor winner was someone who could genuinely sell millions of records. I actually think Sean could be it. I just love him!

Anyway - you can read all my blogs and more by going to this link: www.mirror.co.uk/kittybrucknell

Enjoy!

Divaland is open!!!

Hi Divas!!

I am so excited to be launching my blog for you all. This is something I've been working on for the past few months and I'm now ready to launch it!

I've been working hard on my new album for ages, but I simply love writing and I've always wanted a platform to be able to share with you what's going on in my life, but also things that happen along the way. It seems I'm always having adventures!

Before I write any more, I want to give a big shout out to a few people who helped me put this blog together - Erin, who did a LOT of work on the coding with all the menus - she worked so hard on it, so a huge thank you to her! You can see her blog here actually: http://fashionconsciousfeminist.blogspot.co.uk She'll be launching that soon, so keep an eye out for it :D

Big huge shout out to Ant as well - thanks for sorting my template out and all the pictures! His graphic design work is awesome, so go check him out - https://www.facebook.com/anthonymw?fref=ts

I've always thought it would be great to have a place where you could go to find all the cool crazy stuff. There's not really any blogs that really focus on the things that I really love, it's all sort of very specialised, so I figured I'd make one myself! Divaland is a place where you can find everything about everything, from how to dye your hair rainbow coloured, to where to get decent vitamins from, how to have Tea at the Ritz for £6.50...and much much more. At least, that's the idea! We'll see where this goes...

At the moment, I'm also writing an X Factor blog for the Mirror Online - you can see all my posts here: http://www.mirror.co.uk/all-about/kitty-brucknell - which is super fun...and basically gave me a boost to get this blog going!

I'm about to get ready for an LFW (that's London Fashion Week) party so.... please follow and check back! I'll be posting hopefully once a day, but even if I don't, that means there's lots to catch up on!

Let me know in the comments what you want me to write about, give advice on, anything really!

Big HUGE Divahugs xxoxo
