I've got four eyes and I like it that way.

Denim Envy.

My favourite patterned and printed jeans off the high street..


 Topshop £40
Candy stripes never fail.. apart from if your arse is as big as mine, in which case avoid them.


Zara £25.99
There's a few variations of these around but I think this is the cheapest unless you opt for the Topshop jeggings version for £22.


Silence + Noise £50
If I'm honest I'd rather buy a cheap white pair of jeans and D.I.Y these than pay £50 but they are nice! 


River Island £40
There's a million pairs of floral jeans out there but I favour this bright pair. 


River Island £40
This is about as tropical as its going to get this summer by the looks of things. 


Anthropologie £148
I know these are more expensive, and there are cheaper versions out there but the cheaper versions look cheap so this would have to be an investment piece.


ASOS £38
I imagine that from far away these might look a bit weird.. like your wearing green hot pants over grey leggings but if they look this good close up.. who cares!!


Denimocracy £90
My Top Pick
Again when you take in to consideration the price, I think I'd rather attempt a D.I.Y version before 'splashing out' on these bad boys.

Dr.Martens.

I'm in the process of trying to decide which doc's to buy so I thought I'd blog it and see if anyone can help me decide!
I had a purple pair with stars on when I was like 17 but was so eager to get them that I bought the wrong size and they were way too big for me. Needless to say they ended up on ebay.
So, this time I'm going to make sure I make the right choice.


 I love these ones but I can see there being some soggy sock situations.



These are the pair that triggered my rekindled love of doc's but I've seen quite a few people wearing them now which has put me off a bit.



Not sure if these look a bit too metal head?




I know these are a bit more boring but I quite like them and they look more comfortable because I know doc's take some serious breaking in.



The more I look at these, the more I like them. Plus, I have a new tan leather jacket that i think these would go with better.

HELP!?

Anthropologie.

I've got a bit of a thing for Anthropologie. Some of their stuff is a bit frumpy but they have some amazing prints! Unfortunately I can't afford to actually buy any of it.. but I can pine over it.

My absolute favourite Anthropologie peice..

Wish I could get this for my graduation!

Nice summery dress for by the pool or dressed up with heels and a leather jacket.

Mary Katrantzou.

Fall 2012





She strikes again!
Nobody does prints like Mary.

I'm especially loving the colours of these dresses.
Finding myself drawn to all things blue lately.

Final Collection.




It was so nice to see all my collection together and finished. After all the hard work (and money) that went into it, it was very rewarding to see the finished product.
I am however glad to see the back of it now!


My beautiful friend Joanne came up to Preston and done a little bit of modelling for me.


And the very talented Jodie Fegan done hair and make-up for me.
