marc by marc jacobs ss11

2011-01-19T07:25:00.000-08:00

it seems forever since i've seen a collection that i have really fallen for and i am truly head over heels for the eagerly awaited marc by marc jacobs ss show. reminiscent of the decade of disco, marc manifests high waisted trousers/shorts, big hats, flat wooden wedges and vibrant head adornments, contrasting block colours of burnt orange, terractota, raspberry and blue with femine neutrals and muted beige. undoubtlessy 70' in sillouhette and texture - without all the shit synthetics, and strikingly nostalgic of a young jodie foster in taxi driver.

postbox and sox.

'the weather outside is frightful...' , it really is. snow is everywhere, heaps of the stuff and ya know what happens when it becomes snowy and icy and cold?! i like to stand in front of post boxes of course wearing peep-toes with socks,cranberry lipstick and massive sweaters and pea-coats, obv.

i'm quite sure my forehead grows and inch everyday. i'm wearing my gold candycane broach here too, it was bought for me when i was a child and it's super, super festive and lovely. xo

i know i'm properly waffling on about kate moss of late, but she's been a busy lady and frankly, i like to talk about kate moss.

it seems that Bryan Ferry of Roxy Music is making a comeback::HOLLA!. Roxy Music have had some of the more fashionably iconic albumn covers throughout the years featuring;

Jerry Hall, Amanda Lear, Emma S, Marbessa, Lucy Helmore.

anyway, what i was getting at it, that Kate Moss has joined the line up in cover girls for bryan[stud.muffin]ferrys ne albumn, OLYMPIA.

bryan told me that he has me on speed dial for his next albumn cover. i was flattered, obv.

i stumbled across marina's blog and found a few photographs from the darling halloween spent at the ritz, unfortunately none of her perfect sparkly striped pjamas but one of her fierce corpssee make-up job for specially for the famillyGHOUL/jewel event.

i sang my hear out and decided i wanted too pursuit gothic makeup; just a little bit.

i'd take her life in a heartbeat, junkies included.

2010-11-03T17:30:00.000-07:00

i am both excited and saddened by the new and last Kate Moss collection for Topshop. since 2007 Kate has been churning out elaborate and beautiful collections, unique for each season, i myself have a particularly show-stopping cocktail dress from her last A/W collection, it's gold and black and super skinny and i can hardly dance/move/breathe in it, but that's okay because it makes me look and feel like a beautiful 1920's movie star and i think that's exactly what miss.moss's clothes do to people. theyre designed to make you feel A THOUSAND DOLLAR$$$;

the final collection completely defines everything we know and love Kate for, it's eclectic, classic and nostalgic of our very English 1960's rock n roll heritage; collabortaing iconic paisley prints with oriental inspired kimonos and indulgent textures, after fourteen collections for Topshop; Kate has continuously put her heart and soul into each design not only managing to produce stunning pieces but to stay true to herself and her defiant london style,

i know it sounds kinda stupid, but i love that despite being publicised racking up coke on a CD case and shagging quite a few dick heads she still remains untouchable,classy and terribly mysterious, without compromisng the vulnerability that can be found in her as a fourteen year old girl.

favourite evzz. katemoss shoot for 'The Face' magazine, grungy/innocent/90's adolecence.

i am the ressurection.

2010-11-01T14:43:00.000-07:00

wow. it's been a while.

i cannot stress how much i have been itching to get some posts done, the summer months have been hectic and i feel i kinda lost myself for a little while.

anyway, i'm back and i'm feeling more positive than ever.

last night i went too see marina & the diamonds @ the ritz, manchester. dear god; that woman has lungs and the most perfect pair of sparkly striped pjamas. she got me all inspired, i'll be sure to elaborate at a later date.

this is only a short one, to get the ball rolling again but i am so excited to be back and blogging.

speak soon, love xo

2010-04-26T07:07:00.000-07:00

i have an ever growing admiration for H&M and they're ss10 collection have had me head over heels for prints and shape.

the photos above featured in their lookbook have completely defined the ideas of sillouhette and texture that i'm feeling for this spring. a total mash-up, kinda like luxe boho? i think so.

marina and the diamonds.

2010-04-16T07:18:00.000-07:00

marina and the diamonds. current musical crush.
this video has the most insane make-up jobs, i bloody love it.

2010-04-16T07:11:00.000-07:00

i am and always have been a huge fan of the UK fashion mag 'company'; it manages to sustain a well balanced content of high and street fashion, beauty, all thingys girly and the odd political issue.

the april issue, suprisingly focused on young & trendy fashion bloggers. very fresh. a particular spread with Blanaid Hennesey and Laura Cunningham off Thestylebitches.com, pretty much had me in limbo.

a lot of substantial points made with attention to 'sport-couture' and 'space invader' which promoted the futuristic theme becoming specifically popular around s/s10.

however theyre was an section titled 'a trend too far' which idealisticly defined certain ideas and concepts which just arn't working; this included hooded dresses, purple and bunny ears - which fair enough you win some, you lose some; but i was quite shocked at this little statement right here, targeted at the olsens.

'
VANITY GLASSES
As John Lennon himself once sang: 'Imagine all the people. looking like Harry Potter-loving freaks,' - or something like that. So why all the ghe goggle-eyed-glasses wearers, ey?...'

i'm pretty sure that's not how it goes, a little blasphemous perhaps?

'...The trend is not as big and clever and cool and retro as you think. So please, Let It Be.'

i do believe this is the frames that they are reffering too:

perhaps i'm a little bit alien or just off beat with the world of fashion atm, but i absoloutely adore these. the shape, tones and the gradient off mary-kates lenses. lush, lush, lush. i admit they're definitely a little odd and majorly insect but isn't this what 2010 is all about, pushing boundaries and fashion as an art form.

too reinforce this, i'm sure super round spectacles are emerging all over the parisian scene, with proenza schouler commiting to the trend big time. i personally love these monochrome numbers with metal frames from theyre spring show.

a quote from the NYtimes, states.

''When Proenza Schouler introduced round sunglasses in spring 2008, the designers were actually so far ahead of the trend that they were at a disadvantage. Circular frames are not face-friendly, Ms. McCabe said, and usually look best on women with strong jaw lines, so the line’s initial styles were difficult to sell. But newer versions, which are slightly larger and more angular, with the stems positioned higher on the frame, have been a success. Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez, the designers of the label, said in an e-mail message that they had been bored with the prevailing Wayfarer look and that, while looking at images of midcentury factory workers in goggles, “something about the simplicity of that shape against the face turned us on.''

i think that's enough said. i understand that i may be a tad nit-pickky about this matter, but it got my goat and no matter how you look at it, the way in which to wear these, oversized and cartoon is definitely not Lennon.
that man will forever be an icon, continuing to add references into fashion and culture.

2010-04-08T12:08:00.000-07:00

right. first and foremost, all apologies.

i have been neglectful beyond measure of this mere blog of mine over the last month or so. it is dire and i feel truly guilty but life has been a bit of a whirlwind, with lots of unexpected changes and all that lark. so i have been a bit low on inspiration, you cannot be inspired when you can't open your eyes and i have been a little blind for weeks now. alas however i feel that i need to commit and get 'onnit' in blogging terms; of course.

i cannot seem to catch up on all the wonderful things that have appeared over my hiatus, i.e telllephhonne. *breathless* so i'm just gonna pop some images up here from the last couple of weeks and get back into the swing of things.

PERFECTION,

2010-03-01T11:58:00.000-08:00

in the follow up too lee mcqueen's funeral i thought i'd post something that to me, completely defined the beauty and genius of his work.

words can not describe.

MAD AS A HATTERR.

2010-02-28T12:21:00.000-08:00

i have just seen the photograph's from the lastest premiere of Tim Burtons twisted and rivetting portrayal of 'Alice In Wonderland' feat. Johnny Depp... Drool.. and Helena Bonham Carter and the turn out seemed pretty dandy to say the least, with lots of Burton-esque eccentric celebs and quite a few familiar facees.

it just seems a little uncanny that most of the guests there were in someway trying to represent a charachter from the story of alice in wonderland. i see it like this...

Paloma Faith AKA The Mad Hatter?!

Alice and Charlotte Dellal AKA TweedleDEE/DUM.

Daisy Lowe AKA Somme Effed Up Rabbit/Bunny. wot evzz.

(the one that's late for the date..and that)

Lily Cole Has To Be Alice She Is Adorablleee.

And Of Course..

Queen Viv..Of Hearts That Is.

MANCHESTER ORCHESTRA.

2010-02-27T09:52:00.000-08:00

this is not a fashion related post, but i thought i'd note my current enthusiasm for 'Manchester Orchestra', i saw them supporting Biffy Clyro a couple of months back at manc. appollo and they had the most charismatic, electric stage presence i've witnessed for quite a while. so now i'm pretty much hooked.

There seems to be two video's for the featured song, both of them are really entertaining, individual and alternative, this being the more emotive of the two, the other being respectively a little bit white trash with karaoke bars and a whole lot of trucker caps.

i adore the gritty60's/sepia/ciggarette burn ambience of it all. like polaroids of people and memories that nobody can remember and i'm pretty much in parka heaven.

FACE FLUXED AND FORECASTING.

2010-02-24T11:21:00.000-08:00

hello there.
quite eventful day today, we had a charming fashion forecaster in from promostyl a parisian trend research company, predicting s/s11. it was the highlight of my day when, whilst displaying one concept 'alternaive' a melancholy take on teen subculture, an ode to adolecent ambiguity flirting between romaticism and rebellion, a photograph of the lovely tavi of style rookie; looking particulary sweet and captivating. yes that's just about how eventful my days get lately.

on another note, i'm on pursuit of celebrity faces i can idealistically eff up. i'm currently on a project that requires me to construct a jacket from recycled and unconventional materials and so i've decided that i'm going to use magazines; scouting them for faces and controversial issues. i'm intending on making this jacket, just a little bit...ugly pretty.

so i have a few images here, to give you an idea. i also have a few amywhinehouse/kerrykatona/katieprice one's too; which are a little bit trashhhy - in a novelty way of course.

ANIMAL MAGICCK.

2010-02-18T09:53:00.000-08:00

just seen a few flicks from miu miu's s/s10 collection and am completely bessotted with the quirky little animal details they are featuring.

it's completely in miu miu's nature to focus on the small and peculiar details that light up my life and make me a little dizzy. the cat and canine combo is fab. i feel i'm going to have to DIY my own pussy broach - sounds rude, it's not. i think the use of token, cute chaarchters compliments a gothic ensemble and adds a certain charisma to a blank, black coat/cape.

i've noticed an awful lot of collar detail popping up around the fash scene. collar details, collar embelishment and diverse collar shapes and structure. how lovely. these images have definitely fuled my shoe addiction, patterned, pastel, platforms. this is love.

on the subject of animals, i am currently driving luke crazy on the pursuit for a pug, a friend for life who i'd affectiontely name audrey. hearttsss....but at present i think this is a bit of longshot but i noticed katie and her lovely little pug doggy- baggy from fuzzy nation.

SKELLEKI'S.

2010-02-17T07:43:00.000-08:00

hello, hello blog world. how i've been neglecting you lately.
i'm truly sorry but life has been one hectic whirlwind over the last week or so.

first and foremost, i'd like to say how terribly, terribly sad i have been since hearing the news about dear alexander. it has been such a shock and such a shame, he was one of the most inspirational designers of our generation, so brave and charismatic. he will forever be an icon.

over the last week i have picked up lots and lots of fabulous things, i have gone a little crazy and i'd like to introduce my new little quilted jacket courtesy of topshop.

i have been looking for a quirky little day number for quite a while lately and this definitely fits. it wasn't until yesterday that luke pointed out the hidden little treasures in the design that has made me love it more. amongst the flowers and grids lies...

a skelekii on a bicycle &&

a skeleton wearing a dress and sporting marracas, in some kind of tango-ing format. amaizing!? i think so.

BIANCA BANKSS AND VIV'S DO.

2010-02-10T23:35:00.000-08:00

as fashion students, we are expected to find inspiration, recreate the inspiration and incorporate this inspiration into our final design/outcome.

however, i just had to post about my friend miss bianca banks,

bianca finds inspiration in just about aanything from moths too..

vivienne westwoods hair?! and such an uncanny adaptation of viv's infamous do.

well done bee, this definitely made my day.

ELTON JOHN'S TEST TUBE BABY?!

2010-02-03T06:37:00.000-08:00

i am currently sat in a suspiciously dark patch of the libary, between the books 'discreet mathematics' and 'the dictionary of etymology', i should be concentrating on tediously annotating some messy hat designs that i'm starting to despise and looking into local sculpture on this ridiculously slow libary laptop.

however i stumbled across this this morning and, well, just take a look...

do i really need to elaborate? i too, miss gaga am speechless. this video raised the idea that perhaps elton an gaga are related?! eltons test tube icon? perhaps. it is hollywood afterall.

CASEY BERNICE GETS ANDROGINOUS,

2010-02-02T10:02:00.000-08:00

last night i stayed at my dearest lukes house and with having such a terribly lazy day, time passed and it got a little too late for me to head home and get some fresh clothes for today. i don't do this very often i reassure you.
so alas; this morning i raded luke's wardrobe in attempt too see what i could find. i really do love wearing my boyfriends clothes not in a cross dressing kinda way or something of that sort but i feel that wearing loose fitting shirts and tee's with super skinny trousers heels and heaps of lipstick really does make me feel classically sexy.

so i took some photographs of a few of the outfits i managed to conjour up involving my skinny trousers, classic patent shoe boots (bought from a charity shop in Harrogate for £8!) and a few gold chains and lockets.

here i'm wearing one of lukes flannel lumber-jack shirts, with his tegan&sara/american apparel tee, i absoloutely adore this tee and try to wear it at any possible opportuinty. the design is sickk, tegan and sara in tree form? and tegan or is it sara has been chopped? amaizing. i intend to inherite this shirt in due time.

here i am working the masculine, monochrome look in one of lukes tailored shirts and his charcoal denim shirt, as you can see i like to layer. i definitely think this has a workman/pirate vibe of some sort.

and here i am wearing a pair of lukes super burgundy drainpipes. these kinda have an anti-fit feel on me, but i kinda like it and worn with heels and a tight jersey shirt it kinda looks allright. please excuse my terribly hair, its pretty much in purgatory atm - neither here nor there.

p.s i'd also love to share with you what the man himself has been wearing since recovering from his op.

i apologise for the photo of just his lower body but he was afraid his hair looked awful, luke is going for a highly defined muppet theme in animal lounge pants and kermit slippers, i think these definitely are helping with the whole mending process.

HATS & HAIR.

2010-01-31T14:03:00.000-08:00

i have had a terribly hectic last week, my dearest luke has had a minor operation and so i have been particularly busy looking after him, watching movies and eating endless amounts of Haribo. i have hardly been on the net at all.

however i have noticed that within the last month my hair has significantly grown, which makes me quite happy considering that i was getting a tad bored with my pixie dooo.

currently it is at an awfully, awkward legnth that is leading me to pin it up with good old bobbys, in order for it too look... allright.

shortlly and hopefully i'll be getting a shag. minds out off the gutter it's the new effortless hair do sported by miss posh.

i'm thinking this will be pretty easy too create with a diffuser and a little wax. i also like taylor monsems wavy bob with a full fringe,.

either way i want somehting lush and effortless considering i am terrible with the whole hair and beauty lark.
until then i'm kinda sporting the whole audrey look with a lot of interesting and awkward hats, allthough trilybs are big this season and i managed to pick one up off the high street for a single pound the other day. who'd off thought it?!

miquita oliver dresses up an large black trilby in simple masculine, fitted attire. i adore the shoes and the sharp collar on the shirt.

above, gossip girls blake lively is looking lovely and cosy in sheep skin and a beaten up fedora.

i am currently looking for an interesting and vibrant feather to stick in one of mine. i quite like feathers.

MENSWEARR SS10.

2010-01-24T15:23:00.000-08:00

hello there.
i am currently working on a little something in the follow up to my last breakfast club themed post, so watch this space and all that.
meanwhile, i got a little advice of my dear friend, mr.david groom whom suggested that i should write a little something up on men's fash.

so i'm just going to just try and give a little heads up on whats going to be big for gents this s/s.

first of all, engineer shirts in textured denims with rolled sleeves and a traditional sharp collar, worn in autumn, the spring look promotes a rustic vibe with brass rivets and buttons, to be worn with beige chinos or tailored work shorts.

roll up's are everywhere this season and alexander mcqueen has gone crazy with them. roll up's on trousers, shirts and jackets. primarily trousers, turn ups are looking lush in that old school preppy 1950's way, with a little sock showing. apparantly the brighter the better. i'm rooting for the eclectic way with ribbed grey/white socks and oxfords.

rolled up trousers and perfrect tailoring at dolce and gabbana. number three, call me!?

more outlandish approach on the staple with OTT embellishment and leather blazers at Moschino.

pastels and beiges are currently masssive on the catwalk and are looking fresshh.

pastel blue and teal at Missoni.

combination of textures in beige and caramels, Pringle.

SaytenKumar combines pastel with crispy white and psychadelic prints for ss10.

& off course classic burberry beiges.

BRAATT PACK.

2010-01-22T07:23:00.000-08:00

so, this is just a quick blog. i have been wso terribly busy lately i havn't managed to write anything for a good couple of days.

since my last blog i have discovered that watermelon rubicon is the best juice everrr, met my favourite scottish band Biffy Clyro and girl genious tavi dyed her hair blue. all equally exciting.

lately i have been watching a whole not of John Hughes movies and rediscovered my obsession for the brat pack. personal favourites molly wingwald, ally sheedy, judd nelson, rob lowe and emilio esteves.

I WANT TO BE PART OF THE BRAT PACKKK!

these movies definitely exploit 80's threads at the ultimate best.

the breakfast club showcases grunnge, preppy, glam and geek chic all in one movie. how perfect. i do love this flickk. TO BE CONTIINUED..

TATTS LIFE AT CHANEL S/S.

2010-01-19T13:28:00.000-08:00

wow. i am so thrilled after seeing the latest photographs from chanels S/S10 collection in paris, the most recent craze that brought edge and charisma to the light and virginal classic styles of chanel were the semi-permanent, tattoo transfers. exhibited on the models wrists and thighs were the iconic chains, pearls and the obvious interlocking logo and oh my lord. they look fiinnne.

these shoes should be mine, i'll give you a home and you can live a beautiful life on my feet.

cherry blossoms and swallows how rock and roll, plus there's a happy ending to this fairy tale; just £49 for 55 transfers. by gosh i know i'd be a better person with my body graced with such lovelyness, if only i had those shoes. call me??!!

PINKKY'S AFFAIR & LOOKING FOXXY.

2010-01-18T15:44:00.000-08:00

i'm sorry i have been neglecting everyone over the last weekend but i have been quite a busy missy.

first and foremost i attended my friend's affair looking very foxxay indeed if i do say so myself, i had a massive crush on this kate moss for topshop dress, but wasn't too sure if i could worrk it. anyway, i watched it go down in the sales and when it got too £20, i just had to snap it up.

amaizing. twenty english pounds and it looks pretty dandy, in a good old razzle dazzle way of course.

some vintage inspired, diamante and enamel door knocker earrings, a chunky studded bangle - particularrly heavy; might i add and a kissing boyfriend name luke.

also,i must add that the best dressed had to be the beautiful birthday girl and my dear friend somruethai wilson, aka. pinky whom created this fabulous dress in a matter of days. lovely.

SMELLS LIKE GRUNGE.

2010-01-16T05:38:00.000-08:00

i am so happy about the rise in grunge fashion atm, i am a huge nirvana fan and used to sport the grunge look when i was around 13years old. i adore it, obviously now it's nice to put a glamorous twist on looks inspired by youth culture and theyre are so many celebs out there that are doing it better than the queen of grunge herself miss courtney love. bold statement i know, but courtney and i, we just don't click.

i don't want tro sound like a cliche but i am so in love with mary-kate olsens style currently, mary kate and ashley look divine together, with they're wonderful sweet and sour contrast. yet mary-kate really does stand out for her individualy style asnd her tendancy to experiment.

marykate combinbes skyscarper heels with checked shirts and oversized slouchy handbags.

i heard that mary-kate got criticized for the above ensemble, this pains me. i really do appreciate this outfit so much. i think she looks like a gorgeous groupie, in furs and a dash of red lipstick. thankyou marykate for bringing this.

i am also quite envious of gossips girl taylor monsem for her grunge inspired looks and her amaizinng leggss eleven. the bold pink mini has made my day.

model alice dellal inspires me with her mean undercut and her truly unorthodox approach to grunge/punk. what a lady.

and of course from my side of the border pixxie. always effortless, always individual. wearing docs and doing grunge. eat your heart out courtney.

SHOW ME YOUR TEETH.

2010-01-15T07:51:00.000-08:00

today i had to call the dentist in fear of missing a very important appointment, thankfully i havn't, i am contstantly at the dentist and it is rubbish.

this is because i am eighteen and i wear braces. very unfortunate indeed. i try to avoid showing them on photographs and i am terribly self-concious. however it seems that unperfect teeth are becoming quite the feature on many models, this makes me feel a little better. i have to say.

definitely kinda hot in a somewhat dorky/ugly way. i lllovve it.
oh and another needed boost for my teeth ego, louurdes also wear braces..

i know she's a child but she's maddonnas daughter too. let me embrace my braces.

p.s is that a topshop dress she's sporting. i think so, i love that she looks like on of us mere humans here.

MISS HARRY.

2010-01-13T14:21:00.000-08:00

i'm attending a party/birthday affair on saturday, therefore i am excited to try out some new looks.
anyway, i've been looking for inspiration all week for what kinda direction i'm intending to head for, i want to look like a how'd you say 'foxxxy momma' with a little less flesh and a little more substance, however i am of course a little dubious that being foxy isn't my thing, however i found the inspiration i needed in a familiar 'foxy' icon. the beautiful miss debbie harry.

the above video makes me want to be ice blonde, powerdress a suit everyday with a large entourage of similarly clad men and develop a certain swagger that makes sparks. i know if this happened, i'd be a better person.

heart of glass circa: FOXXXAAAY blondie. how how i love her and her complexion and the way her hair ruffles like so. please be my wife?

i'll be sure to update you on how this goes. definitely infusing some lusious seventies disco kitten/prettypunk vibes into whatever i happen to conjour up. could be a disaster, could be marrrvellous.

SHERLOCK COTTON.

2010-01-12T07:14:00.000-08:00

i am very happy, fearne cotton one of my favourite brit ladies, next to madgethatch of course has launched her own fashion range and my mother treated me to one of her very lovely capes - bearing in mind i currently have a giant crush on capes in general atm, i am in mighty high spirits.

this is just a staple black number, but fearne also has a heavier check design that i think might just make this horrid and unpractical weather a little more bearable.

my favourite thing about this has to be; without a doubt...

the fact that i look like sherlock holmes. detective chic. thankyou mummy.

WHAT CASEY WORE.

2010-01-12T04:33:00.000-08:00

hello there,
i have been busy,busy,busy over the last week with the WKW challenge and i have a e-mail from the man himself to confirm that i shall be on the blog at the end of the week, very exciting news. i must say.

so anyway, i thought it may be an idea to concentrate on my blog rather than katies and therefore i'm posting my seven days of the outfits tha make me happy on here. kinda like a premier of myself and my clothes. yet less important, interesting and colourful.

so here it goes, seven days of casey.

an tedious process defining your stlye in one week, never the less i have tried to cover the range of my favourite textures, styles and sillouhettes & i felt like a movie star.

LAPPTOP CARRIER ANYONE?

2010-01-08T08:17:00.000-08:00

i have just toted my laptop back home in a ridiculous souvenir rucksack luke and i collected when we were last at the seaside. the bag has been terribly practical but i'm starting to consider a more sassy and reliable substitute for this plastic drawstring monster.

laptop bags are showing up all over the place, in so many designs and colours.

my favourtie has to be this classic mulberry design. i adore the satchel design; timeless.

this pure luxury carrier from bottega veneta has TDF woven leather texture.

and as for a classic staple black number, here's gucci.

topshop too, have started their own range of unique, funky and functional carriers.

perhaps i should swap my souvenir sack for one of the above.

PAOLO ON HOOTERNANNY.

2010-01-08T07:11:00.000-08:00

i must say theyre are some dashing men popping up around the music scene, with the dress sense to accompany it.

i am currently bessoted with the lovely and talenetd Palou Nutini and his performance on the NYE Hooternanny, clarified that i definitely want him as future spouse/husband. perhaps?

the 60's inspired suit/polo combo was such an obvious choice, yet seemed so uncomparable on him and as for his effortless fringey hair.just adorable. i do hope i don't sound too patronising here. i just generally admire this man.

paolo nutini - love machine.

i think paolo definitely proves that you're definitely not fully dressed without a smile.

S/S10 FEVERR.

2010-01-06T05:29:00.000-08:00

today i am again stranded at home, in front of the fire with another snow day.
today i didn't even consider the attempt to stumble down the street in novelty wellington boots and the faithful oversized duffle coat i resort too when hungover or lazy.

i am sick & tired off this ridiculous and unpractical weather and i'm substantially yearning for spring.

to top off my desire, i have stumbled across some ss10 campaigns, that are getting me a little hot under the collar.

first and foremost. thankyou burberry, this ad has definitely warmed my cockles and given me a huge dose of forward thinking.

emma watson, pastel mac, just above the knee, subtley structured shoulders and the lovely george to her left. i want her life, please?

and how actually lush does madonna look in the new dolce and gabbana, madonna by stevein clein shoot. it really does make me want to be a sexual, domestic godess. said to be inspired by italian neorealism cinema, it seems so raw to anything D&G have done before. well done.

how much do you wnat these brows?!

FIRST POST - 'POST XMAS WARDROBE CRISIS'

2010-01-05T07:07:00.000-08:00

wow. it's my first ever post and the start of a brand new year. this leaves me with quite a lot to talk about.
i am currently experiencing my anual 'post xmas' wardrobe crisis; this happens just about every year.
around about christmas time, when i have lots of new gifts, i become terriblly excited and optimistic, loosing concept & wearing everything at once with ginormous intention. this results in me looking like an eccentric libarian throughout the winter period.

nevertheless i just wanted to make note of some very charming accesorises bought for me by the handsome mister luke irving. he bought them both coincidentally at topshop and they look completely darling with everything.

i have been forever lusting over this navy holdall since i unwrapped it on christmas evening. it is absoloutely perfect for carrying my endless amount of everyday things, it also has a shoulder strap, practical too! primarily i just completely adore the shape and structure, i can see this bag being my bff for quite a while.

it is becoming apparant that i have an evergrowing collection of brogues, but these bad boys definitely stand out. these monochrome brogues have a defnitie masculine vibe about them & thats why i love them so much. i have allready worn them with skinny trousers and a polo shirt, with a dash of red lippy for a last minute shopping trips and dinner at my aunts, but i am so excited to wear them with a chiffon dress and grey ribbed knee highs. there are so many things to do with them! love them lots. thankyou luke.

p.s i also wanted to show you this beautiful medal crown broach my mother bought me from 'Lello Jewellery'. they have some amaizing costume pieces. i have a velvet tailored jacket that will love this.
