next thing we're touching



i've recently been getting back into film photography, i decided to use it for an art project and had a great time - i love the quality it gives
the photo above is one of my favourites
it has a very ere and gritty feel, despite being so crisp

and from the polaroids below, it is clear i have a severe case of cabin fever due to exams
i cut up one of my old tshirts and wore it with a bandeau bra
i really like the grungy, 90s skateboarder side to it
recently i seem to be feeling the need to dress like this to compensate for the fact i lost my much loved dvd of lords of dogtown. the best movie ever.

don't ever think it's too late to say what was unsaid




so, i got my hair cut, again
i love it. it feels much more me - being bob shaped





i'm absolutely loving this jacket
izzy managed to pick it up for a fiver, crazy
its a great shape and colour

sorry i dont have much to say my brain is chock a block full of geography for my exam,
and its too saturated to think.. pacific SIDs here i come

i’ll be playing basketball with the president, dunking on his delegates




ok, so i'm a little late in showing you this
but yes - i jumped on the band wagon
the miu miu collection is to die for, i love the combination of quirky prints with very feminine silhouettes and delicate fabrics
i was highly amused that a while back, on my first day of wearing this, i was asked if id come to school in costume. maybe it was a bad idea to wear it on the dress up leavers day for the younger year..

so a while back i was in zara and i tried on this dress
sadly dropped waist just doesn't work for me
but i adored the print and the feel
zara, oh zara, how i wish you'd designed this dress as a playsuit instead

paint it black

lace dress - inherited, skirt - handmade, bra - h&m, belt - thrifted, heels - kurt geiger

so. much. work.
i need a break from exams, and to just have holidays now.
sadly what we want and get are to very different things.

i've worn this dress once before on the blog.
it's a family heirloom, and i love it for layering and it floats so perfectly at the bottom
i decided to wear it as sheer on the top half, with a jersey skirt i made - it has a very 'glamour meets grunge' feel to it

well.. i best be off. got to get up super early to work
adios amigos

most of my days chilling out, maxing and relaxing all cool


 my favorite. bag. ever.

Top & Tee, 25,200 JPY
Blue Alexa Bag, 695 GBP, someone get me the over sized pleeeease - its gorgeous

sadly, it was the last day of school on friday
the time went by so quickly - but i have made some irreplaceable friends, i already miss the idea of spending every day with them
on the bright side we go to dress up
f is for...

footloose, french beatnik and the fresh prince of bel air
