 These are experimental picures in a park right next to where i live.I was a little uneasy, being that i was in a park late at night, but it wasn't too bad! 
My favourite is the last picture. I didn't intentionally want this photo to come out like it did, but i was really happy with it. I really like that i look like i'm disappearing, rather like the Tardis!
Please excuse my red eyes, i must look like a infected zombie, very sorry about that!
Song:Led Zeppelin-That's the way
I should be revising but i just can't. I want to sleep so bad! I want to eat weetabix but i can't!!!!

Spring brings new things

This outfit's origin was the black and white striped top; it was the first thing that i put on. I then noticed how bored i was the same old striped top and blah blah blah...and i noticed how if i teamed the striped top with my fav pastel purple Marc Jacobs jumper, that the striped top became fresh and infact picked up the outfit. I felt great walking into Selfridges with this on!

This is probably my first real stab at putting together an ensemble on my blog, so i was abit nervous.

I am so so so tired this week, but fortunately i got to shop today! Thank God! The first time in WEEKS!

As everyone knows, on Saturday it's MOTHER'S DAY! Yes kids, it's the day that every child gets to say thank you to their mums for being there by, yes, shopping!
Of course, when i got to trying to find my mum a present, i knew i was going to fuck it up, completely! First of all i spent weeks asking her what she wanted and for weeks i didn't get a proper answer until today. When i got to Urban Outfitter's surprise surprise! It wasn't there. I was in HMV buying Rochelle her BELATED birthday present( so sorry Rochelle, please don't disown me), which was the James Dean film East of Eden( me and Rochelle, have a thing for James Dean, but, let's face it, that's not a crime, it should be a rule) and i spotted this Francois Truffaut book.
One of the things i am thankful for, is my mum introduced me to the best French films ever made! I cannot tell you or even explain how much i enjoyed Bed and Board!
Anyway, i stood there for ages freaking out whether or not she'd like it.

  



Ring: H&M   Bow:H&M



Lipstick: Maybelline and Rimmel.
I mixed nude and rasberry.



My beloved Jalouse. I seriously cannot live without my monthly fix. It totally feeds my French Fashion addiction. If you want to find this magazine, that never fails to put fashionable people on the cover, you can find it at Victoria Station and Selfridges. Their blog is jalouse.fr.
Half of my mum's present. I cannot tell you how worried i am. 
I really am expecting the brush off smile that she might give me. Wish me luck.

Innocence Is Best Served With a Cigarette.





This is an independent photography shoot by one of my best friends, Rochelle White, who also has a blog http://www.youthlesss.blogspot.com

Rochelle and me share so many loves! You don't know how relieved i am to have Rochelle to talk to, because most of the things i talk about to my friends, they look at me like they must rush me to a mental home quickly or my mental sanity will be lost foreveeeeeer!

Anyway, Rochelle has the giant urge to take photos, and she really wanted to do a shoot that was innocent/rebel/ all at the same time, if that makes any sense.

These photos were taken in an alleyway on the way to a friends house, after school was out. It was so much fun! I had to change out of my school uniform, as we Brits are subjected to UNIFORM.  It took like twenty minutes to shoot, and my other friend izzi was there, doing a seperate shoot with bubbles. So we were all happy bunnies.

Highlights: Teaching Rochelle how to inhale and getting to work with Rochelle. Yay, Rochelle! We finally did what we always talked about!
Down points: None! Except the deathening cold killing my thumbs, so it took way to long for me to light up.

I wear Rochelle's earrings from Camden Market, and my top is Zara boys.

PHOTOGRAPHER: Rochelle White
MODEL: Joyce Lennox

The Age Of The Cupcake......

The Age Of The Cupcake Crop Top.
This is a crop top that i recently made with my own two hands. I cropped it myself as well. I bought a pack of three, in large. Now, i'm not usually a large, but i thought this size was more flexible and it was!
I decided to crop it because i'd tried to win a crop top off Ebay, but i just could not get my hands on one, so i used my sewing skills to make my own.
I saw this title The Age Of The Cupcake from a magazine and cut it out and saved it, knowing that i could some how use it.
It wasn't until recently it occured to me this title is perfect for a tshirt. It's so sweet.
I'm in the process of making a sequel to this crop top....
