Cause' anyone can be a model now.

Yeah I know what you are thinking; why is she not gracing the cover of Vogue right this very second? Worry not friends, they offered, I turned them down; Anna Wintour realised that I don't respond to brown-nosing.

Although posing for some photographs is fun, I think that you get the best results when they are unplanned.

Classifications with Coffee.

Every girl is different? Correct.
Every girl has a slightly different body? Correct.
Every girl is an idividual? Correct.
We can't classify them or put them into categories? INCORRECT.

I have devised a system to put every girl into a category and my inspiration? Starbucks. I was thinking about this while I was cleaning my teeth and admiring my new jumpsuit. Now everybody as well as myself know that I am not a thin girl, i'm not huge but I am not a waif. I am not a biscotti more like a chocolate HobNob. This got me thinking and here I present to you, the girl classification system a la Charlotte Anderson.

On another note its my 18th birthday on Saturday and I will be rocking a new jumpsuit and a pair of peep-toe suede wedges from topshop; hopefully there will be pictures. Lets channel that Bohemian,70's rock vibe this summer.

Androdgeny Ahoy-Hoy.

Mens fashion is something which is meant to be admired. The components for a suit are so accurately made and then constructed. Old fashioned tailoring is, in a way, its own art form.

My love of it came about when I was about 6 years old and my mum stared to expose me to pre 20th century love novels and the reniessence dress style first entered my conciousness. Not everybody can be your Mr. Darcy but perhaps you can be your own modern day version.

Chloe Sevigny channels feminine androgeny perfectly. Her balance between femme and masculine is on the line of genius and personally I think this is done cleverly by her use of fabrics and accessories.

Stay Gold.

I love that phrase, 'Stay Gold'. So many meanings in such a casual sense and I love it. I always prefer gold to silver, there is something about it that appeals to me more than silver.

Give me that gold vinyl top, a pair of leather high waisted shorts and these Jeffrey Campbell shoes: Photobucket
And I would be truly happy.



I'm also a fan of golden hair at the minute, circa Brigette Bardot. This is a look I think is done well by the Olsen Twins and Blake Lively.

She is so gorgeous it makes me sick. Personally I believe she is the modern day Brigette
All have them have something quintessentially vintage about them, making them muses for the future, if I could rock the look, I so would. I'm lusting after long tousled hair at the minute, should I do it or carry on rocking the white crop?

We Are Your Friends.

We love the pub. I mean, we really love the pub. If you ever need to find one of our group and they aren't at home, at university or with their significant other, then you can bet that they will be at The Orange Tree in Loughborough.

This is why we love it when our friend's band plays at events in this very venue.

Dodgy face and hair aside, I do love this photo. The blonde dork behind me is my manfriend

Unauthorised Absence and Candy Themed Dreams.

I'm am incredibly sorry for my lack of updates recently. Exam stress is getting the better of me but my last one is next week so fingers crossed until then!
Photobucket
This is what revision has done to me.


In an attempt to stop some of my bad habits, I am trying to stop biting my nails. I have done it ever since I was tiny and to be honest, i'm fed up with my nails constantly looking disgusting. So to help, I have been painting them a baby plue and candyfloss pink and alternating to keep it interesting and this is where my inspiration is coming from this summer I think.

I want lots of light, floaty, lacy pink and blue items and then some studs and leather to go over the top. Plus my hair is going back to candyfloss pink this summer and the new Jeffrey Campbell 'Lita's' will be mine.

Afterthought: After this Thursday there will be more timely posts, much less sporadic. I just need to get exams out of the way first.
Oh and there will be more outfits of my own up on here but I haven't had the time or mental capacity to take any, let alone to fiddle around with my camera attempting to get the memory card out.
Thankyou for comments guys, it means more then you will ever know; cookies are coming your way (literal, not internet haha...i'll just shut up now).

Another day, some more bag-lust.

Torrential rain has plagued my life today, it barely stopped. I'm so stressed about exams that i'm not sleeping and exhausted does not even cut it.
However, on the plus side, I got a very cute dress from Asda*. That makes me sound scabby but never fault a good dress brought to you at 'Asda price'. There will be pictures to come.


Now to make me feel infinitely better, I have been looking at the wonderful creations of one Mr. Alexander Wang. They certainly cheered me up, despite the fact that I do not have the funds to purchase anything he has laid his pretty hands on. One of my favourites at the moment, I would sell my soul, possibly my own mother, for the leopard print 'Diego'.

Photobucket


Don't get me wrong, I would sell my limbs for a pair of his shoes but the 'Diego' is something I have coveted for a long time now and if I get ever get enough money, I will hunt one down and make it mine (imagine a lioness in the savannah, I am the lioness, the bag is the gazelle, minus the blood it would be exactly the same).
If anyone out there in cyberspace has one spare, give it to me please?
I will do anything.





*FYI: Asda is a supermarket that sells the best clothes a supermarket has ever sold. Thankyou.
