Styling a goddess, bit of Boy London and a road trip to Newcastle

Last weekend was the best weekend ever! My friend Hanna Hillier called me up and asked if I could style a  photo shoot for her with this AMAZING model Daniela Braga. Daniela was phenomenal, beautiful, lovely and  she has an amazing back catalogue of work; she did Paris fashion week, New York AND she shot a campaign for Givenchy a couple of weeks before the shoot we did!! I was so nervous but I'm really chuffed as the shots actually made it on to the next website. Here are a few of my favourites:




I love how she is wearing my Nikes in thee last shot :)
Despite the language barrier (she is Brazilian) we got along really well, she was so down to earth and probably the most gorgeous person I have ever seen in the flesh.

Then on Sunday I went shopping to Topshop with my dad and his lovely girlfriend, tried on half the shop and got an insane amount of new clothes which I will no doubt be sharing with you in due course. This is what I wore on that little excursion:

Top : Gina Tricot, Jeans : Topshop, Shoes : Underground (My little sister's)

This weekend the much exalted student loan came in - my quality of life has gone  through the roof as a result. First thing I did was purchase this beater (as my boyfriend would call it) from Boy London:


I've been wanting one for ages and I like to think one day my future child will thank me for it. By the way, that is now how I'm justifying my clothing and accessories binging. My mum hasn't really got any of her clothes from the 80's and 90's left due to moving country etc. I am always so jealous of my friends amazing vintage wardrobes courtesy of their mothers, so buying copious  amounts of interesting clothes is my way of helping out my future daughter with hers. 
The beater should be at my house by the time I get back from Newcastle, YEAH BUDDY!!!!

At the moment I'm all the way up in Newcastle for my friends Gabby's boyfriends house night Nocturnal Playground, also I'm told in Newcastle they sell triples behind the bar WTF?? I think tonight might be very messy.




We experienced the delights of  Newcastle today at the Metro Centre, I didn't really buy anything because I literally don't need any more clothes after this weekend but it all right, not as god as Westfield London though mind. This is what I wore during the day:


Top/dress : Topshop , Leggings : Black Milk , Boots : Dr Martens , Earrings : Miss Selfridge

 I apologise for the weird facial expression, I should really start putting a paper bag over my face haha!

This is what I'm wearing tonight when we go out:
Bodysuit : Miss selfridge , Disco Pants : American apparel , Boots : Jeffrey Campbell

I am absolutely DREADING the coach back to London tomorrow afternoon, seven hours in hungover hell, hopefully it will be empty so I can spread out over a couple of seats. Wish me luck
