Watching the Brit Awards at the moment, and I just thought I would blog about it! LOVE Florence and the Machine!!! LOVE Florence Welch's dress... Custom made Alexander McQueen of course!
I just can't get enough of ERDEM!!! They continually bring florals to the catwalk, but no collection is ever the same!! Florals are usually a summer thing but Erdem manages to translate the floral theme into Autumn/Winter!!...
Gone are the days where fashion shows consist of models walking in a straight line, advertising clothes! (They still kinda are, but OH WELL)
Fashion shows have turned into big productions! Designers are now competing for the best and most memorable fashion shows! Alexander McQueen has always had extravagant catwalk shows but designers are now starting to join the band wagon, including Stella McCartney...
I can't find a better quality video, but the idea of the show was a flash mob of dancing, super models interrupting guests enjoying their dinner :P Well, I wouldn't mind having my dinner interrupted by Stella McCartney's dancing super models!
"On a chilly night in London, Stella McCartney invited a few friends (you know, like Kate Moss, Rihanna, Mario Testino, and just about every high powered editor in fashiondom) to an old church in Mayfair. We were all sitting pretty, eating vegetarian food (of course), and then there was a magic show. Alexa Chung levitated on the tips of swords. It was cool. And then there was a scream, and the flash dance began. What followed was an epic fashion moment of professional dancing and supermodel Vogue-ing. Amber and Shalom even did a walk off on chairs. Like so many videos attempting to capture a bit of glamour, this one doesn't do the moment justice. But at least it's a view into a fabulous fashion experience. Well done, Stella."
One of my favourite fresh designers at the moment is Simone Rocha. I first got familiar with Simone Rocha's SS 2012 collection and I loved everything!! At first I was reminded of a more urban Erdem, mixing the delicate lace with plastic! AW 2012 still has this look to it! Plus shiny silver metallics!!!! The pony skin and acrylic brogues are probably one of Simone Rocha's more well known designs, and these have also been featured in the AW 2012 collection...
I am slowly making myself deaf! :O I am too obsessed with music right now, and BeatsbyDre make everything sound better!! So I am addicted to listening to music, mainly of the French/ German House/ Electro sort!!!!
I do love me some MadonnaNickiMinajLMFAO tho...

I found a treasure in a Vintage shop the other day...
A Liberty of London envelope containing a silk handkerchief!
I love the design of the envelope with the cut out butterfly that shows off the beautiful floral print. It is such a nice idea for displaying the handkerchief. I am not really a handkerchief user and I think it is too pretty to sneeze on, so I am going to make it into a bow, that could be worn in my hair or as a bow tie... (just to mention it hasn't been previously used, that would be rather gross :P)
The other day, we had a second load of snow !!! This time I actually went out and appreciated it. Me and my Mum went for a walk and saw a surprising lot of wildlife...
Bunnies...
Highland Cattle...
Deer...
Baby Cows...
And... PEACOCKS!!!...
Not something you see everyday; Peacocks walking in the woods :O This is a bit of a random post but I was just really surprised at how much inspiration there was for my brown project. Also how vibrant the English countryside can be :P
P.S. The peacocks had escaped from a local country house! There weren't just stray Peacocks in the woods :) That would be cool x
