What to do on a sunny day ...?

Now it was a beautiful day in the shire today...and what better to do then take a stroll and eat ice cream...dress yourself up pretty and take photo's :)...
Two of my best friends Jo and Alice came over and raided my wardrobe, and donned a face a makeup...now I took some old school photo's on my dads 30 year old SLR camera...it was AMAZING you had to wind the film on that's how old school it was and it weighed about a stone...so you will have to wait till those are developed...CAN'T WAIT !!!...but here are just a few of the photo's i took on my ordinary digital camera...i no not as exciting but this is all in the run up to getting my digital SLR :)...hope you like the outfits...and the photos....they are yet to be photoshopped because I'm not at uni for a couple of weeks and I can't afford to have it on my laptop *sad face*

This is my favourite picture of Al...just looks BEAUTIFUL !!!

I like this photo...the arms make it sharp !


We used a trampet my sister left when she moved out to create jumping shots...I really like them !
This is a dress from AMERICAN APPAREL...I love it !


I like fun shots like this however just realise my foot is in it ...not great!

Jo...wearing denim on denim...AMAZING !

Stunning!!!


JoJo looks stunning in this outfit...she has a great model look...she's wearing my Topshop body and my precious Paul Smith blazor.

Coat I made :) on my driveway...walking shot!





I really like action shots...they can sometimes be more natural!

I love this one of Jo throwing the leaves :)

I also made this outfit last year...I was going for the tweed look...

Next time hopefully ill have the camera and the photo's will be more impressive..but it was fun..next time we're thinking crazy makeup like GAGA styley :)

Kate Moss ruling the world????

She started off as one of the world most beautiful and successful supermodels...but now she is one of the most successful business women!!! and by the looks of it about to star in her first film!


I love Kate Moss...apart from the hole drugs scandal! I admire her for coming back and making a success of her self for things other than modeling...but advising Mr Cowell and staring in a movie..we shall have to see how she does...I have a book on Kate, which I may show you at a later date..its just a book on her style and how it has changed...its very interesting I would advise lots of you to buy it. Lots of pictures :) but it also talks through her life which is interesting.
This women is an inspiration!!!
I can't wait to see her film

Photos!!!! of my visits

Now like I said in my previous posts I had lots of places to visit and here are just a few places that I went and reviewed..I was excited for the day ahead...however it mostly a bit of a let down.
Firstly H Holland for Debenhams...I went striding in!
It was very bright and colourful...and I am known for liking bright colours...however I felt a little let down by Holland this time.
I am a big fan of his work however this collection just felt a bit limp and lifeless.
There are a few things that a might buy...but I feel I would only be buying for his name not the clothes.




and the shoes although cheap...the also looked it a little bit :s
I would give this collection a 7/10.
Next was the Carnaby Street exhibition...and I was really excited about this because I just love stuff like this (history of fashion, and the way things used to be).
But again a little disappointed it was just a small room with a few exhibition stands, as you can see from my photos that was mainly it ! I was expecting something a bit more like the fashion exhibition at the V & A.
There is also a limited edition book that was £16 at the exhibition it looked good but I'm unsure as whether to purchase now because of the exhibition let down :(



A small projection showing a video of Carnaby street in the 60's.

So i feel a little let down by my days events but never mind!!! I cheered myself up with a trip to Harvey Nichols :)

Places to go...things to see!!!

Since my little blogging blip and my mountain of work that seemed to back up on me...I seem to have a lot of social and fashion events to be catching up on... and to name a few here, that I think all of you should visit.
Firstly in my diary is going to visit Hollands new collection at Debenhams, now this is a way for debs to bring in a younger, more fashion conscious, target market...and by the looks of things it is working in Debenhams favour....and from taking a quick peek in a magazine...the items all seem like bargins!!!


... Now I can see where the tash trend has come from !!!


Now some where between my London home and my parents home is Bicester village (near Oxford), which me and my parents love...and whats not to love about discounted designer wear!!!
but more to the point LFW designers such as PPQ and House of Holland will be opening up a pop-up shop (at Bicester village). There will be 19 designers from LFW selling their garments with discounts of up to 60%!!!
Now if your going to take a day trip anywhere it NEEDS to be here...I am definitely going to be there in the next few weeks...I will let you no how it goes if you don't go yourselves.
It officially opens on the 31st of march...and is open for 6 weeks.

Now another important place to go which is high up on my list is the photography exhibition for Carnaby Streets 50th anniversary...now I love photography and where better to go than a fashion exhibition showing images from the 60's up until now!!

they are also doing a limited edition book which I think is selling for £20...now I feel I am definitely going to buy one!!!
This is taking place at 38 Carnaby Street!

OUTFITTTT!

Going out the other night for my friend Randy's birthday to Ruby Blue in Leicester Square. Its quite a nice place...however quite small it seemed...although they serve food there during the day and the menu looked quite nice :)...
Recently I have been so bad with my blog...and my excuse is work...we under estimated how long things were going to take and kind of found ourselves scurrying around in the last week! but i guess this is what life will be like when I become a real life buyer...busy (however my real dream is to work at a fashion magazine !!!).
But now work has been handed in I plan to go back to my ways of a more religious blogger.
and my plan for this Easter is earn and save money to buy and SLR camera..I will let you no how proceedings are going!



I went for the usual messy hair that evening and my outfit consists of...
Dress: Newlook
Belt: My mothers wardrobe
Tights: Accessorize
Shoes: Miss Selfridge.
Hope you like the out fit.
All in all a really good night
