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

A bunch of stuff I'm sure we all want : Black Milk x Jeffrey Campbell, Vivienne Westwood galaxy accessories and bracelet clutches





I think I may be the poorest I have been for a very long time, going to top- up my oyster card is touch and go.. yeah THAT poor. 

Jeffrey Campbell + Black Milk
  1.  Back off - bone machine
  2.  Night lita - rainbow galaxy
  3.  Damsel - rainbow galaxy
  4.  Damsel - sick of men
  5.  Damsel - bone machine
  6. Lita Fab - sick of men
I was browsing the Black Milk site the other day, not buying anything due to extreme poorness when I came across these bad boys. Available for pre order at Solestruck, all of these gorgeous boots are guaranteed to be a sell out, my favourites are the Night lita rainbow galaxies mmmmmm...

On a similar note : Vivienne Westwood Galaxy S/S12 

I NEED the shoulder bag with the chunky chain in my life, just the right amount of ghetto bling x nebula = sexy.


Today I became aware of Werelse x mango touch (1). Those wedges and that bag and that cuff, OH MY GOODNESS. I love the up market bondage feel of the pieces, those wedges are lucky they are already sold out because I don't know what I'd do to them, paired with a black oversized t shirt dress and chunky gold chain necklace and you have yourself a look. The clutch with the chain bracelet inspired me to go on a hunt for more like it,  (2) and (3) are both from Zara,  I know this trend has come up a few times in the last few years (Kors/Gucci/Cavalli) but this dark, minimal take appeals to me a lot more than the more embellished designs I've previously seen.

On a far less glamorous note, this is what I wore today  :
p.s I couldn't be arsed to brush/straighten my hair, this is what you get TA DA

Where is it from?

Lipstick : Mac - freckletone 
Tank top : Topshop (via eBay)
Skirt : Hanna's (charity shop and shortened)
Necklace : Anne Maries (I promise I'll give it back next week )
Belt : ASOS

I was at Hanna's last night going through her amazing wardrobe and I found this skirt, she has more clothes than God. I love this print it is so bright, tropical and combined with my new 'smile' belt makes for a lovely sunny day outfit, shame it was raining ha! I'm not sure if I'm feeling the grey tank/big boobs combo, but hey I was at my dads and didn't have any other t shirts clean. 

It's only a short amount of time till student loan day, I CAN'T WAIT! 
As soon as that money hits my account I will be hitting the Pimlico and Hammersmith charity shops hard so watch this space 
8 days to go

Halfway through making my Levis a little bit more interesting.
Should be doing coursework
whatevs.

What I did :

1. Cut them off to slutty short
2. Used a craft knife to shred them up a little
3. Stuck some studs and spikes in them
4. Then decided to cut out the pockets as well
5. Chucked a bunch of bleach over them randomly and left for an episode of Jezza Kyle
(probably should have done this just after cutting up)
6. Into the washing machine to finish my work/get rid of bleach

Will post a pikky when they are dry YEAHHH BUDDDYYY!!!



-Halfway through bleaching process-
