BLACK and gold, black and GOLD

Listening to: Kings of Leon - 'Use Somebody'

I don't usually take direct style inspiration off the catwalks, i am definitely drawn to the more casual and individual style of street fashion. i love how personlity is true style and how people put their own twists on outfits which make them stand out, inevitably looking better than most catwalk outfits. Well that's my opinion.

HOWEVER, i saw some of Balmain Spring/Summer 2010 catwalks and o.my.god. Stunning. gorgeous. I looooove black and gold.....

What's up Wasson?

Listening to: Bat for Lashes- Daniel

This song is amazing, the signer has such an ethereal haunting voice. it makes me want my own Daniel. uh oh, getting sappy again!!

Feeling a little hungover this fair morn. Last night, forced myself out for the third time in a row so am now feeling haggard, bloated, pissed off, sleep deprived, bitter and twisted. i want to jump on a train to London and go to fabulous places with oodles of money and not be in this skin!

once again, no hot talent were out in the Cavern (the only decent club in this town). my friend went a bit crazyand bit the DJ on the pec... he texted me this morn to ask if he should get a rabies shot. Probably.

But in the doom and gloom of my hangover, i discovered the amazingness of the model Erin Wasson in this massive bible of a magazine (similar to LOVE) called 'Plastique'. she had an interview featured...she is so kick ass cool:

Q: As well as styling for alexander wang, you also styled a fashion story for Elle recently. How did that come about?

A: i thought it would be cool to do a story based on the movie Empire Records. The film is about grunge kids in the '90s working at a record shop. i thought it was a great scenario that had never been used in a fashion story. i pitched the idea to Elle and they liked it. We used actors, not models. i didnt want the girls to be too pretty. the pictures looked really natural and real.

The Elle fashion shoot

So cool, love the clothes, love her.

Roll on life...

Mary had a little glam

Listening to: The Kills - Cheap and Cheerful

I need to get out and paaaaarty!! Photos (apart from the last one) are courtsey of glamcanyon (glamcanyon.blogspot.com)- i love her blog, the photography is amazing...makes me uber jealous of the clothes/make-up and always makes me wanna have one hell of a decadent night out...

The girl above has an amazing outfit - that t-shirt is on my radar.

I think alice dellal, daisy lowe and pixie geldof are all absolutely stunning with kick ass attitude and fashion. I swear they just sum up the raw aspect of London fashion- gritty and fierce. Please give me your clothes


Happy Easter, chickens

Too much rain, too little light

Listening to: The Maccabees - Diamond Solitare

This is the sweetest, and shortest song ever- it's only about 45 seconds but tres beautiful.

I've spent the past couple of days up in Leeds, its the furthest up north I've ever been. It was a conference on getting into the radio industry- would be an amazing job but the kind of motivation and drive (and luck!) you need is ridiculous!.. how long can i put off entering the real world? only 3 months left of uni...
I've managed to procrastinate all day- impressive i must say. o yeah and 'designated fat day' has turned into designated fat week. bad times.

On a lighter note: if i could have these girls' outfits and wardrobes, i would be v v happy....



Get this stretchy alice band in my life now thanks- i definitely had one in 1998....

i love my black opaque tights and leggings, i think most people think my i'm a white girl (well 'off-white' since i got a bit of chinese - malaysian mixed up into my Somerset blood) with black legs. My bare legs hardly see light... hence their pasty nature. i also have a colourful collection of scars on my knees from numerous drunken escapades where ive usually ended up on my knees... o wait i just reread that- i mean i fall over a lot!! Mooooving on swiftly...

i do believe it may nearly be time to crack out the fake tan or skin coloured tights
