The Addams family started...

I just watched Addams family values for the first time in years, I forgot how amazing it is and the outfits are absolutely fantastic, especially Wednesday's peter pan collars. This winter I'm going to be a goth.

Roller Girl

Norwegian model Iselin Steiro appears in this months french Vogue chucking out the Calvin Kleins and donning some baggy jeans and a very blunt fringe for the photo shoot 'Roller Girl'. The look is similar to something you'd expect to see on your local skater boys, perhaps maybe swapping Dunlops for Dsquared2, This is vogue after all.







For the brave get the look by wearing safety pads as accessories, for the subtler of you try teaming a pair of patterned leggings with bulky shoes and a big jumper and layer up!

Everything is Illuminated


Just ordered this on DVD, look's absolutely amazing!

Autumn leaves


Autumn always turns me into a hopeless romantic,but don't tell anyone I said that! There's something about the nights drawing in much sooner and crispy leaves and fireworks and drinking big mugs of tea in the morning when the air is still really cold and sharp that crack through my thick shell, oh and burning Guy Fawkes too obviously.
The smell of Chanel Coco Mademoiselle always reminds me of Autumn too but I really have no idea why. So, I thought this advert was kind of fitting and I love it so much, Keira Knightly is an absolutely masterpiece.

Design-a-thon

In my first week at University we did a small, very quick project called design-a-thon.
Our task was to build an outfit out of old clothing based around the concept boards we created over the summer. In my group all the boards had themes based around either delicacy, corruption, innocence and protection.

Here's some of the images that inspired my summer project.


















Aaaaand the colour pallete I decided on


Aaaaand here's the outcome...
