I haven't owned a pair of Vans since I was about 10 years old, mainly because they are skate shoes and I have not set foot on a skateboard since then. However, I was more than happy to make the exception when Lucy from Access All ASOS invited me to the launch of the Vans X Eley Kishimoto collection. It's my boyfriends fault I missed an amazing party, (badly timed birthday) I got some new shoes though!! How cool are these?

 Eley Kishimoto, created by Mike Eley and Wakako Kishimoto lent some of their archive designs to this collaboration and created a new print inspired by the Vans waffle sole. I bloody love a good print and these are amazing. I think I may need to buy the flash print slip ons, and the matching bag, I'm obsessed. Also, if you get a chance check out the Eley Kishimoto site HERE, they have the dreamiest printed wallpapers, grown up house goals right there. Here's a few more snaps of the collection and party, go and check it out on ASOS HERE.

Long time no see? Every post I'm trying to explain my absence! To summarise,a combination of ugly days/bad hair days/being hungover and just living life have made me the laziest of bloggers. A change of lifestyle was needed and so far so good! You never know, you might even see a recipe for gluten free banana bread on here sometime soon :)

Anyway, just going to dive straight back in. A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of visiting the city of Paris with a few of my friends you may know - Jen of Jen Electro, Sophie Emmet (stylist) and Gary of The Plastic Boy. We did the typical touristy shit (observe me at the Louvre avec bumbag)which was cool, but oh my god is the Paris nightlife amazing! If you are ever in the neighbourhood go to Silencio for a good night. You'll feel robbed by the price of a G&T - 24 euros! But it's worth it, music was on fleek (think everything from Tupac to Zebra Katz) as was the decor and beautiful people (Ian Somerhalder was in attendance). We also spent Sunday at the Afropunk festival which was awesome even though it was indoors (don't even ask me why a festival was indoors). Highlights included seeing Lion Babe, Lianna La Havas and Willow and Jaden Smith, who is definitely a better rapper than his dad!

Anyway got a very eventful summer ahead, which of course I will be blogging about. Two festivals - Glastonbury and Shambala and also going on a massive vaycay  to explore Sri Lanka for two weeks in September so stay tuned :)

Any of you guys going to Glasto let me know!
