Do you think I should end this?

Do I need to say anything?

Meccano

Finally, an actual post about London Fashion Week! This is probably the weirdest selection of designers ever, but here are just a couple of shows that caught my eye (it's probably best to click on the pictures to make them bigger)...

LUELLA. I didn't think this was quite as good as their last few collections, but still gorgeous. All the heart shapes, polka dots, bows... And Alexa Chung has worn that last dress already!


LOUISE GRAY. New to LFW I believe, but definitely 'one to watch'. It's all so fun and colourful, and that first dress is just epic!


CHRISTOPHER KANE. Definitely really different to Luella and Louise Gray, but still amazing. The gingham and lace and everything together; beautiful yet dark at the same time.



Of course that's only three, a few more favourites were Erdem, Clements Ribeiro and Vivienne Westwood (: I have quite a few ideas for future posts so keep checking back! x

Stop me if you think that you've heard this one before

I'm sorry I haven't written in forever, life's been so busy recently! For two weeks I hosted a Spanish student (which was great fun, by the way) and since then I seem to have had TONS of schoolwork and stuff to do so yeah, not had a lot of time for blogging! On the plus side, after having a bit of a break now it seems like for once I've actually got lots and lots of things in my head to write about, with all the major fashion weeks and everythingggg (: However right now doesn't seem like the best time to start writing... I promise I'll be back with a proper fashion week post before this week's ended though!

Sheila goes out with her mate Stella

Would it be stupid to dedicate a whole post to one ELLE issue? Well, this month's, October if I'm right, was actually amazing! And I actually mean that, I'm not just talking about Lily Allen (I'll get onto that later, don't you worry) the whole of it was really good, I'm still sat flicking through it now. Even the usually rubbish supplement part was good. Good good good good good. Undeground posters (soon to be up on my wall), Pete Doherty interview (rather in love with him now) and Kaya Scodelario/Effy shoot (just the slightest bit jealous she's only two years older than me!), it was all awesome. Basically, just GO BUY IT NOW!

Anyways, here are some pictures I managed to scrounge off the internet of the Lily Allen editorial, shot by Rankin. Maybe I should be talking about the new blondeness (cue the Debbie Harry references...) but it was the other pictures I really liked; I'm super excited about seeing her live now. The last picture is my favourite though, the lace leggings, the t-shirt, the messy hair, the tatoos, the cigarette. She looks absolutely gorgeous, no?

Dear catastrophe waitress

Today was my first day back, and I have to say it went pretty well... I'm a mentor for the new year sevens, which basically means I have to take them to all their lessons, thus spending minimal amounts of time in my own. It's pretty fun actually, they make me laugh.


New H&M top, nice cup of coffee. I'm in a really good mood. Anyways, for all of you going back to school/college/uni this week I hope it's not too bad! x

PS. I realise this probably failed to keep you entertained, so here is a nice little link I found yesterday. Enjoy!
