DVF collaboration!

Wow! you can get me a Diane Von Furstenburg mini anyday of the week please!!

OH Daisy Lowe!



I absolutley love Daisy Lowe's new collection for Morgan, Talk about sexy chic!

Missoni Fall 10' collection

Missoni Fall 10' collection features pieces manufactured from sumptuous fabrics, yet with a fierce exterior.
I love the chunky knits with dramatic collars and the way it contrasts the sleek, feminine silhoette.

The Missoni fall collection has pinpointed everything that is chic for fall/winter 2010.

SuperChunky




They look like skyscrapers to walk in , but get them on my feet now!



Smart casual?

Sooo I'm starting my first internship tomorrow at Propaganda P.R agency. Apart from being very excited, I needed to brainstorm a few outfit ideas so I'm not rushing around at 7am trying on hundreds of different outfit combos! (as I know I'll do, and I never achieve anything, always returning to the first outfit, I know everyones guilty of the same thing!)

I'm guessing , as its a sleek, modern office environment , maybe smart casual? business dress? presentable? not looking like a tramp?

Here are my initial outfit ideas;


Dress; Nikki Lee California from the 60's
Denim shirt; Gap s/s 10'

Dress; Rare @ Topshop Mid-season sale!

Dress; Blue maxi-dress, Topshop Basics
Denim look cropped jacket; River island summer 06'
Key long pendant; a stall at camden market this year.



along with this I'm just going to mix my new khaki maxi skirt with smart tops and lots of accessories and I'm sure I'll cope!

:)
So excited!


Nothing like Narnia...



Okay, so when I climbed over the pile of clothes covering my floor, wedged open my wardrobe which, for all intents and purposes is more of a dumping ground than a hanging space, I didnt really know what to expect. After living at uni for the past 6 months, I havent paid much attention to my messy wardrobe, and have been using drawers, chairs and door handles and any other hangable spaces to hang my clothes. So i decided to have an epic clear out of anything that I didnt need and/ or anything that should've been thrown out years ago....

What I found at the back of my wardrobe wasn't sumptuous furrs that have been in fashion for the past winter season , and are sure to be returning in A/W 10', I found something much more offending ... i thought I'd take some snaps and share the amusement!








Some pointy, purple suede, cork wedge heels , Topshop Circa 2007.
- I got these beauties for my 17th birthday, wore them to death, and after having them repaired a ridiculous amount of times the shoesmith told me they were irrepairable. Broke my heart! and after holding onto them for a further 2 years I've finally thrown them out. I deserve a medal!


I think this Primark number is a few of years old, maybe 2007? I remember , back in my fashion-knowledge naivety, I wanted this because I thought it looked "Vivienne westwood-y"
I guess everyone was grabbing at anything that was tartan with voluptuous shapes and a corseting effect. I think I wore this once.

Black satin bubble dress, Rare at Topshop, 2006. - It can't be denied that this is one of thee most copied high-street numbers , starting in Topshop , and can now be found in any cheap market stall or high street copy-cat shops. I really don't like these dresses.


I got this from ASOS a few years back , Its Yumi Boutique and I lived in this during the winter for college. I paired it with black cardies and wooly tights. It looked dead cute , but I couldn't wear it now without thinking that I was doing an ode to "in my Burberraaay". And I think my friend from uni summed up her opinion of this dress as "woahhhh, you chav!"
whether to wear it again? problem solved.

Industrial rock'n'roll

This is the fun we had meeting another students photographic brief for an Ad campaign for the American denim brand, PRPS.
We had an amazing shoot location and some willing rugged boy-models.. very productive day.
