topshop tumblr









I find it so hard to get myself dressed in the morning without my daily dose of Topshop Tumblr. This blog has saved me on days where my mind is blank and lacking imagination. HOWEVER, this site just makes me want to go into Topshop and buy the whole store which my bank balance is not very fond of. 

WISH LIST: 
hot pink knitted jumper
silvery, sparkly brogues 
anything with studs
faux fur gilet

I have a very large girl crush on this lady. Look at her, she is beautiful. 
Congratulations for winning the British style award for the second time running! definitely a worthy winner. Hair appointment booked for tomorrow and it is very tempting to take in a picture of Alexa and ask to be identical. Something is telling me that it won't look nearly as good on me though!

four of a kind

Yesterday I went over to my mother's fashionable friends' house to take some snaps of her handbag collection for my current Uni project. Its fair to say that Dawn, likes her bags and she likes them designer. When I arrived she started pulling them out her wardrobe one by one. Chanel, Prada, Jimmy Choo, Mulberry, the list is never ending. 


However one bag I was told to take extra special care with. It was a Prada, ostrich leather tote. One of four ever to be made in the world. One belonging to Victoria Beckham, one to a Princess over seas, one to my mother's friend, Dawn and the last owner is still unknown. To me this was mesmerising and I feel rather lucky to have even held the thing! Here are some photos I took of the beauty x





Prada, you did good! x

behind the scenes












So on Tuesday I found myself very fortunate to be picked to help out on a styling job for the Press and Journal, all thanks to my fashion lecturer! Here are some of the 'behind the scenes' shots I took whilst I was there x
