Big Pete.





































How fabuloso is Peter Jensens A/W 10 collection? The velvety tartan, the queen like head scarfs, the messy bobs. Ooo, so refreshing to see something rich but light and fluffy at the same time! We have'nt even got out of winter but I cant wait till a/w 2010! Dazed and confused have done a good feature on the show. Here's a few pictures too!



My favourite? The velvet tartan checkerd mini skirt!

The lady is back!

Got a bit of fashion elbow going on :)































Well after a few eventful months, I'm getting back onto blogging. Its been a while but I'm sure I can remember how this all works :) I hope you've all been well and had a happy new year!


I bought a new camera yesterday so will be posting daily pics!!

Anyway, just surfing ( do we still use this as looking at the Internet or am I so 2004?) And came across THE BEST TIGHTS EVER! I know I must seem like a tight fanatic, but they have seriously picked up their game. They aren't just a flimsy item that your mothers used to dress you in to keep the cold off, they've become a 'piece' , a talking point, a small outlet for the wearer to say what they feel in nylon form. So here's a few I found!

Also- I had my year 13 photo today, kinda went for the old preppy, white shirt, checkerd skirt, black tights, black blazer, flat patent shoes and mock croc tote bag. What do you guys think then? :)

Lemme update ya.







Gosh, ive been such a lazy bum with my blog recently, but as its coming up to christmas and pretty much all my coursework has to be in, ive been a very busy girl!



So just thought id update you :) Anyway its only a quick one, but i'll be blogging LOADSS over the christmas holidays, becuase i'll have lots of time :)






So ive noticed people are changing their hairstyles alot lately. I mean Cheryl Cole has gone shoulder length! SHOULDER LENGTH! im surprised because she's just done the l'oreal campaign, with her lovely long locks. I think shes trying to leave the 'wag look' behind her. Hey, it worked for posh.



Also Daphne Guiness has gone all dark! Saw her in a piece for Grazia and just thought i'd post it.






Anyway, hope the christmas shopping is going well!






TA TA FOR NOW! xxxxx

First time for everything?











Today I bought my first ever copy of i.D magazine. I KNOW! being the devoted fan of fashion I am, I should have purchased a copy many moons ago but it just never jumped out at me. So there I was in local borders (which might I add, is closing down! Was so devasted.) And saw Georgia Jaggers' face staring right at me. For £5 i thought I should give it a go. Well how delighted was I?! ( I actually couldnt decided whether to get i.D or bon.. but i went with i.D obv) I loved the cover, the content, the advertisements ( glad there wasnt alot though, like Vogue. And I know its not very conventional for someone who adores fashion to condemn Vogue, but come on! every page is an advertisement..maybe I should look past this and see the real content?) But anyway, yes I loved it! Im still going over each page and absoring the loveliness!








Anywho, just thought i'd let you know.








Hope your all well, speak soon chicaroos!

BLOGGER OF THE YEAR!!!





























So I was scrolling through a few websites and found the 'Clothes show Live' which is held in Birmingham, England every december. Its literally a giant fashion extravaganza that anyone can go to. They have lots of fashion shows, celebrities, model scouts, competitions and shopping. You get the jist. So i found that they were doing a competition to find the 'blogger of the year'. I was so excited because I've been to the clothes show a couple of times and thought i'd have a go at the comp because I started blogging in september and it just felt like a sign, you know? The winner gets anoounced at the show, and becomes the official blogger for the show, also getting work experience at 'yougo' which is a university based company ( Creates forums for uni kids to chat in , before they actually go to uni) So i decided to write about the 'henry Holland' and pretty Polly collaboration because i dont think its had a lot of publicity. The 5 finalists get annouced on the 27th november ( TOMORROW!!) So im keeping my fingers crossed! Will this be my small breakthrough into a cut throat industry??? Keep your ears to the ground :)


Btw ive posted some pics of the Henry Holland tights. £10!!

My personal faves are the mock stockings! Also ones that say 'wana party' on each calf but i cant find a pic!

Sorry, did Knitwear just get a little bit sexy???


SEQUINSSS!!!












Love the blue one! <<<<












eeekkk how gorge??







Flicking through magazines and fashion websites, I started to ask myself, since when was knitwear SEXY??? A couple of years ago knitwear meant one of your dads pullovers or that crazy red jumper with the little red robin from your kooky grandma. Knitwear designers are seriously picking their game up! I was scrolling through the knitwear section on ASOS and was so surprised! Now, ive always been an ardent fan of the old cardigan but the selection made me fall madly in love with beautiful applique jumpers! They even had sequins... SEQUINS!! I love it when an underreated item in your wardrobe suddenly becomes so fashionable, you want to shout and dance about it. This new found discovery has made me excited for the cold weather, and I know, us Brits are always moaning about cold weather, but with these new found beauties to cover my goose bumped arms, im not complaining!



Anyway, enough of the crazy talk, I've posted a few pictures to see what you think.


Tell me if your loving your new pearl buttoned cardigan or that jumper thats drenched in sequins :)
(All items found on ASOS, in knitwear section :) )



Tar Tar for now, my cable knitted friends :D xxxx

Not lost, just undiscovered.

Speech Debelle with Zane Lowe.
Mr Hudson- AMAZEEEEE in concert, also pretty hot :)


Ellie Goulding, one to watch.





A couple of days ago I went to a 'Mr.Hudson' gig in Manchester and absoloutly loved it! He's only just got really big, but i knew him from a couple of years ago when he brought his album out ' A tale of two cities'. His support act was Speech Debelle who won the 2009 Mercury award. He also had another support act who i ADORED! but cant remember their name and cant find them anywhere!! Its driving me crazy. Anyway I wanted to write this post because after looking for more 'gigs' to go to I discoverd a girl called 'Ellie Goulding'. I feel I have wasted some of my life by only just discovering her music! I watched her on 'Later with jools Holland' and loved her instantly.Her voice is fresh but vintage at the same time. Almost like a KT Tunstall mixed with lady GaGa and La Roux but 10 times better! She only has around 4 songs on youtube, but shes definitely worth a listen. Personal favourites are 'Under the sheets' and 'Starry eyed' oh and 'wished i'd stayed' which was produced by Frankmusik. I predict big things for her! Just remember her name :) Coz you will soon be hearing it everwhere.








Au revoir, Mon Cheries! xxxxxx
