Nylon

Now I have a penchant for Nylon magazine. I want to work there and by want, I mean NEED.
That is a long way into the future and i'm going to have to hope that they start a British extension but nonetheless  I have high hopes.
While perusing their website the other month, I came across the 'Create a look' page. Curious, I tried it and became slightly addicted to it. As it is under the shop tab, it calculates the price of the outfit that you've created but in my case, the eye-watering price totals leave a little bit to be desired! 
But a girl can dream right?


The link to the page ihereso have fun creating and styling from the comfort of your own home ladies. Keep those dreams alive! And until then, I just have my fingers crossed that I win the competition hosted by the lovely Oracle Fox. 




 As you can see, I wish I was at Coachella in the sunshine but again, we can all dream. Grunge luxe at its finest. This actually only came to approximately $1795.00 and I think you'll agree, that is just a bargain... 
Notice the fantastic skull cuff by Natalia Brilli. NEED. Topped with a bowler hat and plenty off attitude and I think I would be good to go. 
Why not send me some pictures of your own creations?

Life Moves On.

Well, in the past few weeks, I have been embracing the motto: 'Life moves on' and wow, doesn't it just. 
It only hit me today that I have nearly completed my first year at university. I also spoke the ex and it was bitter-sweet but that's okay because I always knew it was going to be.
I think that all of this moving forward has made me look at my past. I've been literally obsessed with everything 90's or 80's that I grew up with; whether that be cartoons, films, clothes or music. I actually realised while watching the 'sabrina the teenage witch movie', that Marty is my style icon. I think I may even own half of the clothes in that movie or if I don't now, then someday I will god damn it.
 Maybe its to regain some of the sanity that I probably had at some point before my teens, before boys and before responsibility. I miss being a kid sometimes because the future iscary. The prospect of bettering my c.v, trying to fight a hundred other girls to get a job that they all want, even to starting a life that is completely my own. Dude, some scary shit right there, jus' sayin'. 


In other news, I'm going to dye my hair sugar pink, get my nose pierced and travel thisummer. Barcelona is on my hit-list and I couldn't be any more excited about the whole thing. I'm over being scared and i'm over doing things for other people or because they want something a certain way. I'm taking control. This istarting to sound like a self help guide so i'm going to stop it right there before it gets out of hand.


I haven't yet formulated a post based on fashion that I have deemed worthy but soon there shall be one up here and ready to read but it wasunny the other day so I took a picture of me in a dress to prove that I actually own something girly.
