South Kensington


So i'm now up in London most weekend because we recently got a flat in south Kensington, where my sister lives and has only today started central St Martins art college... which is where i would like to go when i leave school! She asked me to dress up in outfits so she could take polaroids for her art here are 4 of them. This is her style of dressing and as you can see she is very into vintage clothing.

Stealing the sole of a dress





I recently found this photographer/model by the name Elle Muliarchyk and I absolutly love her work and the way she goes about it, she is so creative. She is able to do the work she does because she is a fearless person. Her work goes a bit like this, she goes into boutiques and high fashion shops all over the world, picks out an outfit usually an amazing and extremely expensive dress! which she pretends to want to buy... goes into the changing rooms sets up her her camera on her tripod and poses in different positions to create a masterpiece. She often takes in bizarre props such as gassmasks and mannequins. Behind each of her photographs there is a story and strong feelings, there is danger in each photograph as she is putting herself in a dangerous situation. She was asked if she had ever stolen anything from the shops she goes to, she replied "no the only thing I steal is the sole of the dress, I enjoy the moment of wearing it and then nolonger need to have it!"

Gothic STUDS




Studs have been all over the catwalks for autumn/winter 08 so I thought i would create a stud page in my sketchbook, as you can see i have stuck pins in the page which seemed to be more difficult to do than I thought it would be!




I'm loving Gucci this season, especially their studded belts and the way they are styling the outfits using multiple belts. They are using different textures such as cord and quite thin seethrough materials on top, and main colours being black, navy blue and gold.





Many celebs such as Ashley Olsen and Nicole Sherzinger have been spotted wearing these studded Louboutin ankle boots. On their own they look extremely Gothic but these celebs have managed to pull them off well.








Mary-kate Olsen has been wearing a large Studded navy blue Jacket by Givenchy, the sleeves may seem a bit too much but for the less daring they have less heavily studded jackets.










I spotted these Bebaroque Brassy Studded Tights which are available to buy from asos and mytights, they cost a staggering £50! And this is for one single pair of tights... I would buy them but just my luck I would get a hole in them and ladder them as soon as i put them on, which would be a disaster! But I do really like them they even have white and gold ones!




Just found a new blog that I love, and I really like the way she has put this outfit together, would never have thought of layering a top like this ontop of a pretty layered skirt. A skirt like this is in my very long list of fashion buys! This picture was supposed to be showing the way you can wear a studded belt, and not look like a goth/emo... but the outfit is just so cute! love the belt I must buy one soon, belts make such a difference to an oufit! As soon as I buy one there will be pictures up. And check out Karla's closet!

New Royal Blue Brushed Cotton Tights



Be admired for your fearless color style! Here's another pic of our new intensely bright royal blue color in our Diana brushed cotton tights. As I've said in the post below, these tights will keep your legs toasty warm, feels and looks like a sweater knit and looks like lush cashmere on your legs!

Puerto Banus

I haven't written on my blog for a very long time as i've been in Puerto Banus in Spain without proper internet for four weeks! I didn't actually manage to take many pictures because I left my camera at home and was only able to take photos with my phone which was a pain!

Puerto banus is a place where the rich go to show off how much money they have by buying a yacht, or driving around in their flashy cars! One of the biggest yachts there is owned by an Arab prince although I have no idea who he is we saw him on his yacht hosting a party. There was also a yacht there called Tiffany! Here are some photos below sorry for the bad quality I have photoshoped them in an atemp to make them look better...






In these few pictures of my outfits I am wearing a black lame bandage skirt from american apparel and a top from mango which i bought in Marbella while I was away and sandals from topshop! These pictures were taken just outside the town, where there was an amazing setting for taking pictures of vintage outfits, shame I didn't have my camera with me!urrhh!

Here's a picture of my little sister Daisy wearing a white dress, not sure where its from but its probably only done in kids sizes and a gold belt...
We saw these monkeys in Gibraltar up the mountain called the Rock! The picture below was pretty hilarious: 2 fat ape/monkeys stuffing their faces...
