The Most Beautiful Shoes in the World

I have fallen in love.

Scouring net-a-porter.com I came across these gorgeous boots by Maison Martin Margiela and Cupid's arrow hit my heart.

They have just the right amount of bad-assness & je ne sais pas.

And is it just me or is the back view of a shoe always the most sexy??

Androgyny

My masculine posing skills

Clearly a ladyboy if I'm wearing heels

Since one watch just isn't enough!

Trying to be a Tag Heuer campaign

Shirt : All Saints; Trousers : Made by Moi!; Shoes : Topshop

These are the glorious items that would be my men's jean trousers. Think I was going for a Bay City Roller stylee with the tartan waistband and patch pocket. Although one of my friends told me they were the type of trousers my Tutor would wear.........oh dear.

Heres some Androgyny images to try and gain some cool back into my life.....

How cool do these girls look??? Speaking of how would you channel your androgynous self?

Surrealism

Top : Primark; Skirt : By Me; Shoes : River Island; Bangle : Primark; Cuff : Accessorize

Continuing with our Surrealism theme, we next had to make a skirt portraying the theme.

Mine was meant to be an upside down skirt but then kind of turned into a peplum skirt and I actually prefer it.

Although it doesn't scream Surrealism, the more I look at it the more I think I would actually wear this out.

And thats surely better than making something I'd never be seen dead in??

Heres some examples of successful Surrealism in skirts.....

What do you think of the Surrealist concept? And while we're on the topic of outrageous clothes, what wouldn't you wear?

Something Surreal

Shirt : Created by me; Wet-look Leggins : Topshop; Shoes : M&S.

This would be the divine shirt I re-arranged for Uni in our first semester.

We had the topic of Surrealism which was all very interesting and really let us go mental with our designs.

Mine didn't turn out too bad, cuffs on shoulders, a shredded shrit added on, you get the idea.

We also had to present out shirts in a fashion show which was amazing fun getting to show off our designs exactly how we wanted them.

Again sorry for the blackberry fuzziness, iPhone maybe next time?? Shots are taken round the side of my house in the rain! Yet again.

Here some other white shirt inspiration....

Stars and Stripes

Today started out sunny before once more errupting with rain so in an attempt to encourage the weather I brought out my new stars and stripes top courtesy of Topshop.

Floppy Hat, Top : Topshop; Skirt : Primark; Belt : River Island; Shoes : Office; Watch : Swatch

Apologies for the quality of the pictures but right as I was about to take them my camera died and then I discovered I'd lost the charger.....why do things like that always happen??

So the photos are taken by my sister on le blackberry so they look a bit grainier. 

 The stars and stripes kind of remind me of Chanel's S/S 2008 collection.

 If only we were all as cool as Daria......

Sorry for the Delay!!

My laptop currently has a virus and the father thinks he can fix it on his own so its taking a little longer than normal to fix....hence the lack of posts.

But the show must go on and I have a couple of exciting things I want to show coming up so to keep you interested til then heres a wee sneaky shot of what I've been up to....

Painting my nails!!

Cause why have 1 colour when you can have 10!!

Frill of the Month

This month I've been looking back on past award ceremony styles and found this gem of Alexa Chung. I'm still undecided as to whether or not I actually like her, her style is overrated but I can kinda see what she's trying to do.

She's here at the 2008 Elle Style awards - always one of the best awards shows in my humble opinion - and this is an example of a time she's got it right for me. Helped by the fact she's wearing that Luella dress that was seen everywhere the minute it came off the runway. 

Now you too can re-create the frills Luella vintage style with this Topshop number from their new Dress Up range. At £80 its a darn sight cheaper than the original unless you happen to shake the dust off one in your local Oxfam....but that remains unlikely.
