So today I went to Enfield town.

A) I finally found i-D magazine, in the mens interest section. For a start its not a mens magazine, its unisex, and it used to be in the womens fashion section so you can't just decide one day that it is going to be a mens magazine. Why is there not a unisex section? I mean Wired and New Scientist are in the mens interest section, next to FHM & Nuts. Thats a little bit sexist, that suggests women are not in to science and cannot enter a career in medicine, and also forbids women to have any interest in technology. Is this or is this not the 21st century?

B) On the bus home some girls got on and looked about 13, but were really short, and got asked for their oyster cards and said they were 10. This only really shocked me because they were wearing leggings and mini skirts and tights with real Uggs and Abercrombie and Jack Wills hoodies. They were talking about fashion and shopping and trying to be all grown up, but then when the bus door wouldn't shut properly, like the immature 10 year old they were started laughing like loons. Totally juxterposed themselves there.

Point is though that back in 2002 when I was 10 I didn't get anything better than Tammy Girl. I was still recovering from the 90s grunge look wearing 'grunger jeans' and grey hoodies, with slogan t-shirts and long wavy hair (yeah I was a misfit, lol.) I didn't even know what Jack Wills was. They are going to grow out of it, I mean what a waste of money! It just irritates me.

There is just too much pressure to grow up fast these days. I would have rejected that statement when I was that age, but now I guess it's true.

I am going to London Zoo tomorrow :) How cool am I! I probably haven't been there since I was 10. Should be awesome.

It is snowing on Oxford St!

Or atleast it is outside John Lewis & Selfridges. Its raining bubbles outside Liberty. Caos!
After you have been ill all week it is not a good idea to go and completely naker yourself in Oxford St in December. Oh my g.
It wasn't even a sucess. Stillgot presents to buy. Bahh Humbug!
Anyway guess whats back? THE OUTFIT POSTS! YAAAAAYYYY!

Dress - Stolen Girlfriends Club @ www.idontlikemondays.us

Shoe Boots - Topshop

I love this dress. I don't care what people have said. I think its like marmite because at school someone thought it looked like a dress the poor girls wear in 'A Little Princess'. I didn't take that as a direct compliment, but people also stop me and ask where its from too so thats nice :)

I like having rare clothing, especially if its not vintage because it feels even more special.

I remember I used to be known as Topshop girl which made me sick, despite that being because at 14 most girls still only dressed in chavy New Look / River Island, and God forbid, Jane Norman *gags* clothing.

I am no longer Topshop girl anymore, but everyone else is.

Ohh and I meant to post this ages ago...

I got it in Barcelona.

That was a cool trip. Gaudi is awesome.

This now is pride and joy on my bedroom wall.

Meoooow!

Poor Calvin Harris may be replaced as my music obsession sooner that anticipated after I just watched the video for Hadouken!s new song M.A.D which was amazinggggg!!!!!
I also just heard their remix of the Sugababes' new single Hey Sexy; again, amazing!
Calvin replaced Florence but sadly hes being shoved aside.
Bibi Calvy! You sexy thing.

I just finished reading Chuck Palahniuk's Fight Club which I read after his Haunted. The best two books I have ever read, and I have read quiet a few doing English Literature A Level.
So if anybody is looking for a quirky author, hes the one for you!
Fight Club is perfect if anybody is doing 'The struggle for modern identity' as their English Lit AS topic. It is also an amazing film which I also highly recomend. xxxx

What a woman; so strong and individual. I am itching to known how fictionalised this presentation of her life is, as it does seem the most sucessful and admired, iconic women seem to have not such good a start in life, a tragic history you may say. That begs the question, do such situations make the woman, or is it the woman that shapes the world?
The ending of this film almost made me cry. The clothing at the end was absolutely beautiful et la francais was lovely. I love french films they seem more romantic and interesante, don't ask me why.

I am going to Brent Cross tomorrow with my two friends and we are taking the bus, so the journey will be around 2hours (haha), but time well spent, with good company.
I will try and do an outfit post tomorrow of what I wear.
I just havent been bothered with taking photos recently, it has been far to hot.

I also jet of to Milan next Friday which should be fabulous :D

Hello to all my new followers
Thank you :)

Dress - Boutique in Hertforshire

Necklace - Topshop

Bracelet - Links London

This is what I wore to my mums birthday dinner last night. I hadn't worn it for over a year since my last day of year 11. I had brown hair and a full fringe at the time but I think this dress looks better with my blonde wavy hair.

We went to a Turkish restaurant which was nice and cosy and warm with pretty decorations. Naturally I had a long chat about it with my Turkish Bessie Canel y Nell Nel. We have all sorts of random conversations.

Once on MSN she said brb came back after 10 seconds and she had gone to the kitchen and peeled a carrot and come back. AMAZING!

Dress for the Ocassion : Juniour Apprentice Interview

Dress - Luella A/W 07

I got this discounted at London Fashion Weekend earlier in the year for £75 I think which is not bad for silk and velvet! I also got my Sara Berman jacket worth £300+ there too which I also wore to the interview. You can see it in my post 'Party like its 1999'.

The interview was on Monday, it went well and I am waiting for a phone call until the 24th and if I hear nothing by then I am out. Lets hope I get a call!
Fingers, toes, knees, legs, elbows, tounges, heads, necks, thumbs, ears, mouths, lips, eyes crossed :D xxxx

That's okay As long as you can make a promise not to break my little heart or leave me all alone in the summer

So I havent posted in like a week due to an amount of school work. I have been shopping so I have some new outfit posts planned but with the current climate its too hot to wear clothes. But if I had to wear something it would be this dress/top/playsuit. Whatever it is I love it!
I will be posting some outfits soon.



I have my interview for The Juniour Apprentice next monday aswell so i need to decide on something smart to wear, which is puzzling me.

I have also seen a cool Lady Gaga top on Asos for £18 which I figure I can wear to the gig in two weeks. It will be cheaper than the Gaga merchandise that will be available at the O2 anyway.
EEEEKKKK!!! Im standing and sooo excited! I LOVE GAGA!

Im going to party like its 1999!

I am off to my friends 17th party on saturday night but since I wont be at home from thursday night, as I am going to university open days far away, I had to pre-plan my outfit so I can take it with me. I cropped the white lace top myself today, which I think has worked out nicely, since every one who is anyone is taking the Tardis back to the 90's to cropy Britney Spears. The fact I adore Britney also makes me even more keen on this trend which I am hoping will stick around for a while.
If I havent been shopping by the 7th of July, (as scary a thought that may be), I will probably wear the outfit on the right with some flat shoes for the London College Of Fashion open day. I already know I really want to go there because not only is it the only specialist fashion university doing a fashion management course, but I have also been there before for 2 weeks doing 16-18s short course and I fell in love. London is my hometown and I don't think I could cope without Oxford Street on my doorstep.
LCF 2010 HERE I COME!

ps. Jimmy Choo for H&M????? Not sure what I think about that because it won't be Jimmy Choo anymore will it? I mean its not just the brand name or design; it's the design and its quality, with a loss of quality its not quiet the same is it? We shall have to wait and see...

Oh my ears and whiskers, how late it's getting!

I just had to have the White Rabbit top when I saw it especially with the release of Tim Burtons version of "Alice In Wonderland" coming out next year. That will be a masterpiece, and I am telling you now that it is 99.9% likely to become one of my favourite films.

Britney was AMAZING! and suprisingly I was the only person there (that I saw) who was wearing an IF U SEEK AMY top. Nobody else had home made ones with t-shirt transfer pictures of Britney on them either, so 1 point to me!

This is what I wore to the cinema this evening. We went to see Tormented which was really good and lived up to my expectations. Grusome and gory at times but funny as well. A mixture between Saw and Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz could you say?
I have taken a liking to Dimitri Leonidas :)

The necklace I am wearing is probably one of the best buys I have ever made. I have had it for 3 years and I am yet to find an outfit it doesn't go with. It is my lucky necklace which I have been wearing for my exams. Lets hope I do well.

Together forever, never apart. Maybe in distance but never at heart.. UNIQLO.

Purple top/jumper - Uniqlo
Scarf - Uniqlo
Bag - Topshop

Yesterday I went to Uniqlo for the first time ever. For some reason I had always felt that if I went in there I would feel out of place or unwelcome. I didnt feel as though I was the target audience, but yesterday I rised above my unfair judgements and entered the store. I was pleasantly surprised by the Japanese version of H&M. Classy but affordable. I wanted some comfy, plain clothes to wear to school as my outfits are either to rememberable to wear too often, or simply inappropriate or impractical. I found this wonderful purple jumper which is comfy and soft and fancied the scarf to go with it. Simplicity, in my mind, was a reflection of a boring personality, but I have been swung and now do believe in the philosophy of things being "simple but effective".
Thank you Uniqlo. I will visit again soon.
