Fashion Week

So here a few pics from Fashion Week. My first reaction on getting there was god isn't this awful. You then walk into a show and the magic kicks in and all of a sudden you feel like something from the movies. It's a funny old world isn't it fashion. You hate it because it's exclusive but that's the exact reason you want in.

I can't decide if it makes me feel like this

Or like this

Vintage Night Out

So I've been really getting back into my vintage recently. My Ebay watch list is getting slightly out of control and I've discovered that being surrounded by vintage shops in the East is fantastic as you get your hands on those hard to find gems before anyone else however damaging to one's credit card. I am really excited to be wearing this little number next week to my boyfriend's DJ revival gig. He is trying to play it down of course and is refusing to make me a playlist of the set.

Found these illustrations on a friend's blog the other day - thought they would be the perfect accompaniment to my new jazzy top and gig outing next weekend.

Carrot Top

So after facing facts that ginger does indeed run in my boyfriend's family and our children might indeed be ginger, I've decided to fully embrace the red and this is the shade I am going for:

A Lace Affair

This outfit goes against absolutely everything that I stand for...

Flowery lace tights?

Lacy light green dress?

Dark Victorian boots?

But for some reason it works and I LOVE it. It perhaps reminds me of Gwen.

Any thoughts?

She was always such a pretty girl

Loving this new Emily Strange illustration. The perfect amount of Emo.

P Love

Oh Pamela, it's so good to have you back.

Now where can I get your ring?

What's not to love?

Wah Nails I ♥ you. I wish I could find more excuses to be with you.

Modern Day Cleopatra

Mademoiselle Yulia is my interest of the day - DJ on the Tokyo Electro scene, jewellery designer with her own label - Giza and columnist for Nylon, what is not to like...

Reason no. 257 to go to Tokyo.

Lanvin Loving

Making me very happy that my fringe is back.

Today I am in love with Wildfox

Mawi moves to the Ditch

Ruby red gems, a gold chain and skulls. What's not to like?

Mawi is apparently opening her first store in Shoreditch. Just down the road. Community discount? I do hope.

It's all about the Polka Dots

After searching for weeks for the perfect dress to wear to a wedding, one jumped out at me last night in the most unusual place. Parrots & Pelicans - a new vintage store in Dalston. Good work for 9pm on a Saturday night. Sooooo excited!!

Rihanna looking amazing as always in a polka dot jumpsuit from Dolce & Gabbana.

The Ladies of Terry Richardson

Slutty with a little all fur coat and no knickers thrown in for good measure.

Chanel and Louis V baby.
