Off To The Vet



We have been looking after a neighbours cat and this morning there was a strange bump on his head so I am off to the vet to make sure he is OK. Through the process of creating this blog I have been playing with photo editing. It is quite obvious that I still have plenty to learn but somehow with this photo the background is washed out but my outfit it true to colour. No idea how that happened.

A Day At Graduate Fashion Week


Today I headed to Earls Court to check out what was new and exciting this year at Graduate Fashion Week. For such a fashionable event I thought I would pull out all the stops and wear an vintage outfit pulled together from my favourite on-line shop Oxfam. The finishing touches are a Primark necklace, Warehouse handbag and clogs from Pied A Terre. Actually the clogs did not make it into London because shortly after this photo was taken the rain started and I changed into cowboy boots to stay dry.

It was an inspiring fashion show with so many interesting ideas. Christina Economu collection was my favourite, even though it is a terrible photo I had to include it.


Well what can I say about this guy. He definitely was the highlight on the model front and is wearing an outfit from Carl James Illingworth.



As each piece of Rachel Cogley's collection came on the runway it became hairier and hairier. The colours and the big shoulders were great, but the hair defiantly leaned towards the gross side and a idea that has been around for some time. Not a hit for me, still the idea worked because I am talking about it.



This was a very chic look from Laura Fairfax. The black and white was sharp with a great take on the Palazzo Pants


Another lovely collection. Lyudimla Lane used folds, pleats and a striking grey orange combination.



Being that I am huge fan of coloured tights, the moment Meg Cornwall's collection hit the runway it caught my attention. Her take on Harem Trousers were quality.

BRING ON THE WEEKEND


It has been a heck of a week, my presentation went well yesterday which shouldn't come as a surprise considering how much work I put into it. Today I am celebrating by being creative in a different way and personalising one of my t-shirts with lace and buttons. Before that I needed to head into a haberdashery to find a new Twin-Needle for my machine as the last one very strangely broke when I ran over a pin.
