Katie 2

So yes, I'm in love with Katie, she looks like a deer caught in headlights in these photos thanks to me blinding her with my old school flash. So cute.

Winter Wonderland

So I absolutely love Christmas, this year I've been so busy though that I've hardly had any time to enjoy being festive :( however I have managed to have time to go to winter wonderland in Hyde Park twice! One of the perks of living in london is all the beautiful decorations and markets :)















I got back to devon yesterday, however I'm going to be so busy working and doing a project for uni I'm not sure whether I'll have time to take many devon photos.

London Arts News Favourite Photos 1

So a few people were interested in seeing some of the photos I took during my time working for the London Arts News this term, I have quite a few favourites so I thought I would spread them across 2 posts to save my sanity.

Affordable Arts Fair





I had a really great time at this event, I would definitely recommend it to all art enthusiasts. Its a lovely day out, you can get involved in workshops or just browse the art for sale.

Bermondsey





I got to explore different areas of London as a part of my work on the paper which was really interesting, I particularly enjoyed Bermondsey as all the cafes and restaurants were lovely.

Frock Me Vintage Fair







This vintage fair was truely amazing! You could pick up some really great vintage dresses for bargain prices.

Trends: Glasses





So I didn't actually get to choose the trends, glasses was a bit of a weird one but I liked how the pictures turned out.

Mick Rock Exhibition



This exhibition was in Shoreditch and it was actually terrible I just really liked his work.

Movember





This was actually really fun, getting up close and personal to a lot of moustaches and all for a good cause!

Check back tomorrow for the rest of this post.

D_Luxe Love

So I stumbled across this label whilst browsing the internet and I absolutely fell in love with the styling of the lookbook, the models and of course the jewellery. I'm really into stacking rings and this label does the most beautiful rings! They really remind me of Whitney Port, not sure if she actually wears them but they're the same style as some I've seen her wear!

"COSTUMES & CRYSTAL ARMOUR" from d_luxe jewellery on Vimeo.

The illustrations and pastel colours in this video are a perfect combination!









Their new collection, 'Costumes and Crystal Armour' will be available in March 2011 and although the label is from New Zealand there are London stockists so I'm super excited :)

Asos Wishlist

I must spend so much of my time browsing the pages of Asos lusting after a lot of things, however recently I've mainly been looking at their selection of faux fur, rings, dresses and boots. So today I ordered my favourite faux fur tippet and a couple of rings which I'll show in a later post, however the dresses and boots are slightly out of my price range at the moment but I can still dream. Here are my favourites...

This dress from Dahlia is quite girlie for me however I just love the colour and the back detail, I also have an obsession with velvet.





One of my favourite labels on Asos is TBA so here are my 2 favourite dresses of theirs although I would love to own all of them.





Another label which I love is Reiss 1971 and there's just something about this casual dress which I fell in love with, I can just imagine it paired with heeled black ankle boots.



These boots are unlike any others I've seen on the highstreet and I just love their shape and that they're different from the chunky boot which I usually prefer.



The lace up detail on these boots is just perfect, they would go with everything I own!

Bestival!

Now I love winter, and especially Christmas, but for some reason this week I've been feeling a bit of festival nostalgia! I love going to festivals in the summer and I realised I still haven't posted the photos from bestival this year. The festival was perfect for me, filled with glitter and unicorns and I loved every minute of it...

3 Things

This is one of the regular items I plan on writing for the blog, with just 3 random things I've been liking/disliking/anything that don't really warrant a whole blog post/it generally saves me time.

1. Plum Lipstick!

I've become obsessed with Plum lipstick, I don't actually own any, but after trying on Camilla's (Dark Deed from Mac's Venomous Villains Collections) I have decided it is a must have for my make up collection. I thought at first I wouldn't be able to pull off a dark lip because of my red hair, but as long as its more purple toned I think it works. It just different to my usual nude lip/smokey eye look.



Mac - Cyberish £11 / Revlon - Black Cherry £7.29 / Topshop - Vamp £8

2. Grow a moustache for Movember, So November is upon us, and I'm already counting down till Christmas. But November is the month when all boys should grow a moustache to raise awareness for mens cancers and raise money for charity!

I was the lucky lady assigned to the piece on Movember for the London Arts News so I spent a couple of days grabbing guys and photographing their upper lips. I am now a moustache connoisseur .


3. My mums coming to visit me a week today (or 7 sleeps as I prefer to put it) and I'm literally so excited! I plan on spending as much time as possible with her whilst she's here and baking some cute cupcakes ready for her arrival! I haven't baked in far too long!

What an absolute cutie she is!
