Curly Hair, Who Cares?

I've wanted to start a blog for a while. I never really knew what to do it about as I have so many ideas and thoughts in this crazy head of mine.
First I guess I should introduce myself. My name is Izzy, I'm a third-year MFL student at Aston University and I'm currently working in Paris for my placement. I'm a nerd, I love all things Disney, Marvel, musicals, you name it I'm probably into it. I'm a lover of fashion, music, reading, and above all, films.
This is me:

I decided that with this blog I would just post whatever came into my head, different sorts of things that interest me, some particular themes and sections. I read, and I watch a lot of movies, so I started out thinking I'd compare the books I'd read to film adaptations of them. While I will still do that on this blog, I also wanted to share insights into my life and my brain, as well as more general stuff like fashion and hair care tips (for you fellow curly-haired readers out there).

So, that's basically it. Keep checking back for more actual blogs, and in the meantime, follow for updates:

Curly Hair, What's in There?: Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

One of my favourite series, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, is ending next week. So sad, I know. And the last episode was very dramatic. So, I'm going to explore the events and how I think the series is going to end. If you haven't seen it, the show is the story of Rebecca Bunch (Rachel Bloom), a successful New York lawyer who decides to uproot her life to move to West Covina, California to follow a boy she dated at camp, Josh Chan (Vincent Rodriguez III). She gets a job at a law firm, makes friends and stalks Josh until she finds out he is actually engaged to Valencia (Gabrielle Ruiz), a girl he went to school with. Rebecca ends up going out with Josh's friend Greg (Santino Fontana/Skylar Astin- will explain later), who ends things with her to move and go to business school. Then, the law firm gets bought out and Rebecca gets a new boss, Nathaniel (Scott Michael Foster), who isn't the nicest guy. They have a thing but later split up as well. Eventually Rebecca decides that s...

Curly Hair, What's in There? Queer Eye

Curly Hair, What's in There? is a segment that will explore the random topics that are always circling my mind, things I want to talk about or things I want to share. Queer Eye Right, so if you are in any way aware of current popular culture, you'll have heard of Queer Eye, the Netflix reboot of the classic show where five gay men (the so-called "Fab Five") makeover people. Season three landed on Netflix yesterday (March 15) and I am living, I've already watched it all. If you've not already seen this show, lemme tell you why you should. First off, it's not your typical makeover show. Like yeah, I get it, you're thinking "it's a bunch of fashion conscious gay guys so it is" but it's really not. I mean, they do have aspects of that, they makeover their wardrobe, their look, their living space, but they do so much more. In just a week, they seem to makeover peoples' lives. As well as the three aforementioned aspects, ther...
