Graduate Fashion Week day one

So Graduate Fashion Week kicked off today at Earl's Court and there's so much talent! Really impressed with both University of Central Lancashire and Edinburgh College of Art's runway shows. Between both of them, only one graduate desgined a menswear collection, with the rest being womenswear and knitwear. One piece I really liked was this amazing gold jacket which was worn with the sleeves pushed up and laced at the front. Designed by Daniele Reed for University of Central Lancashire. Another was a really cute patterned jumpsuit with a sequin bra, by Rebecca Purvis for the same show.
For Edinburgh, I saw the cutest white dress, sleeveless, with embroidery down the front. Would look so cute with bare legs and either gladiator sandles or Chanel clogs, Alexa Chung style.

These are a few other's i loved








The photographer working with Anna at GFW is Nina Miljus, who is also a designer and studied Fashion Marketing at Northumbria University. Nina's work is incredible, her garments are beautiful and her photography and styling has almost an Alice in Wonderland feel about it, using cute hats and bunny ears. Check it out...

london town

In london for the week, stayed with Anna last night and went out in Angel. It's such a nice place, I want to live there in a flat above Browns. That would be just lovely.

Anna and I took full advantage of photobooth before we went out.

the cobrasnake

So Anna showed me this really cool photoblog The Cobrasnake- both the blog title and pseudonym for American photographer Mark Hunter. Based in LA, The Cobrasnake takes snaps of the cool kids in the city and LA's underground party scene as well as documenting the parties of mainstream celebrities. Being a massive fan of Michael Cera, I particularly like his Youth in Revolt album- also a brilliant film.

But the one you must check out is the birthday party for Katy Perry. She only went and had a Willy Wonka themed bash, with real life Oompa Loompa's and all! Check out these sweet snaps!

Perry's looking hot!


Looks so messy and fun!


Glorious food

graduate fashion week

Okay so my best friend Anna won a competition with More magazine to blog for them at graduate fashion week in London next week, and stay in a hotel with a friend and she asked me to go with her. Excited is an understatement. Anna's always been so streetwise which shows in her own blog. Each post is such a cute read, informative with her own added humour, you really should check it out. Most of the stuff I hear about first comes from Anna's blog, I just love the way she writes.

summer

Summer is literally the season where nothing matters. Everyone's so positive and i swear the sunshine motivates you to do something with your life. It was the same last year, I had tonnes planned, was the happiest i've ever been and met the most amazing boy. Now to do it all again...

it's been a while

Totally been slacking with the posts recently. Cant believe it's been two months since our last one, unforgiving. Basically a lot has been happening, disseration completed, fashion styling completed, university completed. So much to look forward to now...
