Golden Oldie


I know its not a great capture, and its EXTREMELY blurred, (I think I was getting used to my rather new camera at the time,) but I just found this photo which I took over a year ago, and I would just like to point out that my legs most certainly do NOT look like this anymore.
This is rather sad times for me. So I just want to put this up, and have something to work to, for summer. And having a chinese takeaway tonight, do not help matters.

ERROR.

To do


I have been thinking, when I leave university, and move into a bigger bedroom, I want it PERFECT, to take lots of nice pictures. I will be moving into a bedroom, with a nice big window which backs onto the back garden, letting all the sunshine in.

I want to start collecting nice things,
I want to buy sandals with heels and wear pretty white girly sock with them,
I want to have nice brown legs, and to wear them out in the summer, and not hide them away.
I am going to buy beautiful bedding, and to purchase my first big mirror / wardrobe.
I want to post things on my blog every day, and time to make myself feel good every day.
Most of all, I want my cat and my boyfriend to be there with me every day.

Power of Heels



1. Topshop on wishwishwish
2. Mui Mui shoes on Cerry Blossom Girl
3. Collection from insearchoflittlesadie


"Shoes: The higher, the more expensive, the better. 'It's totally impossible to be well dresses in cheap shoes,' according to Sir Hardy Amies."

The higher the heel, the tighter the calves, while the thinner the heel the greater the optical illusion. Therefore the overall ratio to apply is:

Heel height + width - thighs + calves x 2 = legs + bum/wiggle

-Camilla Morton

On the other hand, according to Oprah Winfrey there are 6 must have shoes and they are:
1. Black Pump (in a kitten heel)
2. Comfortable Flat
3. Evening shoe (in neutral or gold)
4. Sleek Comfortable Sneaker
5. Tall Boot
6. All Weather Boots

London Views












I have finally completed all seven of my books, and just about to send them off to print today, HOW EXCITING! I can't WAIT for the outcome, I do hope the £400 I will be spending on the printing of fourteen books will be worth it.

I have left you with some sun shadows and views from my window in all seasons, where I have been living the past two years, and soon to be moving out of in just under two months, sad times.


Also the birthday card I got from my flat mate Mindy yesterday, Happy Birthday to me for yesterday, it was a lovely day with three lots of surprises, as I thought I would be spending it alone, completing my books. turns out, my boyfriend, then my step sister came to surprise me on the Saturday night, followed the next day by my Dad and Kate, with Annica at the restaurant for lunch.

The most beautiful thing in the world, I couldn't have asked for more. x

Bow Hair


So I said I was inspired by the editorial 'In Bloom' just posted a little further and was going to do something similar, only to realise in the evening, that I have lent all my florals to a friend in a previous shoot. So instead myself and my flat mate Mindy decided to take things to the extreme, and Mindy ended up putting a bow in my hair.

Too much fun.

Some time during the summer I will however do something more floral, and hopefully outside in the glaring sun. I hope you had a nice evening. x

A little Taste of Last night



I have so much to do that I only have this one to post up one,
but hopefully more to come soon. x

INSPIRATION In BLoom








In Bloom, a beautiful editorial for Test magazine, the most exciting thing I have come across in my 'write off' day. This has inspired me to do something beautiful this evening. Lets see how it goes.

INSPIRATION DIY chanel bag


‘Sure, it’ll raise more than a few eyebrows but let’s face facts: there’s more dignity in carrying on obvious parody than an outright fake Chanel handbag. It’s fake it till you make it revised for the modern age.’

Spring / Summer Denim Shirts.

I am loving the denim shirt look this summer, you can wear them with anything, and it looks great. On the plus side, you can buy one at your taste, being if its a vintage gem,
or from a high street love.

I woke up late today, it was awful, I feel really bad, especially as I have so much to do, including designing the Degree Show Catalogue, and I only have a week left to do this, aswell as my seven books, damn. Its also really hard to pleae everyone with the designing of the catalogue. When I think that it may be complete, the graphic boys will come back at me with plenty to change and questions about things I haven't even thought about.
I think I have piled the work on too high.

Also, what is the weather doing today, woke up at 9.20 it was grey, then 10.30 it was sunny, and the finally at 11.30 it was raining.
