Kings Of Leon

Kings of Leon a band which only recently over the past couple of years I have got to like have become well known and many music fans consider to be a pretty 'cool' brand. The bands style is very individual, quirky and ontrend. The four boys are now following their image look and are collaborating with Surface To Air to release a new clothing collection.

This clothing collection will consist of 12 pieces that all aspire to Kings of Leon. The collection will be exclusive and sold in Chelsea's The Shop at Bluebird.

The collection pieces consist of:

I think that this collection is pretty cool and will be very popular, its something I very much like!

Snowed In

Today I woke up to find I was snowed in! Not the most ideal situation when stuck in a small village like myself with no friends to go out in it with. However it is the best way of making me doing this uni work I suppose. With an excited brother waking me up at 7:30am to tell me his school was shut (a time I have not seen in along time!) I got up, layered up and decided I would go out in it. Searched the house for my dads Nikon D80 and decided however much I don't know how to use it I would go out and take some pictures in my garden. Also means I can delay starting this ever growing mound of uni work! I took photos with this camera back in October but edited a couple of them in Photoshop however here are the unedited results from the snow.



Tavi Gevinson

I recently came across a new blog.. a blog written by a little lady called Tavi Gevinson. The girl is from Chicago who started her blog when she was 11!... YES 11 exactly what I thought. Now being 13 years old she has hit the fashion industry with a storm, often being found on front row seats at the biggest catwalk shows and has appeared on the front cover of POP magazine. A little bit jealous? I think soooo!
Tavi recreates catwalk outfits that she loves on herself and pictures them. Follows catwalk trends, styles, books, photoshoots and the list goes on. She is pretty amazing and is having huge success off the back of starting this blog. She is someone that all fashion individuals need to watch out for!

L'Oreal

Continuing from the Shu Uemura post back in November, my group was one of the groups which has been chosen to go to London on the 15th to present our idea to L'Oreal! I'm soooooo excited! However it is now down to the hard work to learning and amending the presentation for the rest of this christmas holiday!

Wish List!

For christmas I received Topshop vouchers and money, as well as some new exciting items of clothing :)
I decided today I would go through all the sales rush to see if I could find any new exciting things. Armed with my christmas money and my mum we hit York! Not knowing what exactly I wanted I didn't think I would find anything worth while but I was wrong. Returning home with a white long sleeved lace bodice from Ark for only £11.99! A t.shirt from Topshop covered in tiny Eiffel Towers which is really cute for £20 :) (and looking around Topshop and many other high street stores I see the Paris, feminine, pearl - my favourite! lady like, glamorous, embroidered items are a new favourite trend of mine). I also purchased a cute black button up top from Topshop which is perfect to be worn with any skirt which is ONLY £7 in the sale! I will admit I am an individual who does sercetly like a few Jack Wills items and picked up some nice lounge/p.j pants in the sale for £44 which I cant wait to have a night in now and wear!
Lastly my most favourite piece, an embroidered knitwear cardigan from Topshop. It is soooooo nice and feel this will be featured in many of my outfits. I'm excited to wear it now!


Fashion is a huge weakness of mine whether I really need something or not if i like it it is bought!

THE HILLS!!!

Over the summer with all my spare time I got a slight addiction to the Hills!
Before I had only ever seen an odd episode here and there on MTV, however I went and purchased the box sets. I LOVED them! The Hills is a lifestyle of one of my dreams, to live, work and socialise like the girls on there is something i would anything for! As well as having a small crush on Brody!
Lauren Conrad and Whitney Ports interns at Teen Vogue working behind the scenes at catwalks etc is something i would love to be able to experience and have such a hands on job like! They lead amazing lives which every female would swap anything for! Once watching the first episode of a box set I would have soon watched them all!
Even though it a tv program the knowledge and understanding it informed me of how a fashion intern with Teen Vogue can work and experience and opportunities you can achieve from such a position is only pushing me on further. Encouraging me to make sure my CV and covering letter is amazing, hoping that one day I will be like them!

Miss Cheryl Cole


Due to a LARGE work load I haven't had the time to blog recently, but I am going to make up for it over this Christmas break!
Cheryl Cole, quite a new idol of mine that I look up to for her style and until the other weekend loved every weekend for the Xfactor show waiting to see what she wore next. Along with the rest of the UK a new found love for Cheryl Cole and her amazinggg style is wide spread!
Her performance on one of the first live shows was amazing! I will admit i have re-watched it numerous times she did soo well. Her military outfit was soooo nice and suited her well. Along with her second performance for it on the Children In Need show at the Royal Albert Hall and the Night in with Cheryl Cole show, all three times she was pretty amazing. Her dancing routine is also very good wish i could dance like her!

She has come every girls idol!
