Entering the Real World (Whatever that may be)
So the dissertation is finally over, uni is done and dusted. HELL TO THE YEAH.
Yet the realisation that I now have to join this working world, is rather scary. But hey im up for anything!
University has been an absolute blast and wow I've made some incredible friends. I would recommend it to anyone, but god its good to just sit and sayy ahhhhhhhh.
The cool English kids just having a laugh!

Jeffrey Campbell: The ultimate shoes
Jeffrey Campbell's latest collection Resort 2012 Los Angeles takes shoes to another level!
These unique shoes tell you it's possible to be outrageous, bringing spikes glitter and platform to an all new extreme that makes Jeffrey Campbell one of a kind.
Now I've tried the lita platform boots and by god I literally went from 5ft 2 to 6ft 'hello down there'. So trying to walk in them proved... erm... a tad difficult, let alone actually embarking out on a night out with them. As well as the slight feeling when wearing point shoes and standing on point on those hard wooden blocks kinda sprang to mind.
Yet I still want these shoes! why because us girls seem to want the bad boy. The bad boy in the shoe world.... Jeffrey Campbell!
Please someone join me in loving these shoes.

Optical Illusion
Have been noticing the latest in dresses, the optical illusion dress, creating shapely curves all through the pattern use on a dress.
Kim Kardashian and Victoria Beckham are wearing an illusion dress by Alexander McQueen and god it bloody works!
I love the fact these hollywood celebrities are finally going for the fuller figure, and Kim looks amazing, although the dress maybe a litle dissapointing once its off, its nice to see people embracing their curves and offering us "normal people" the chance to embrace our curvier figures too!
Thumbs up I say!
It seems that high street stores are already hitting up this trend with New Look, Topshop and Very saying hello illusional curves.

'Now this is a story all about... fresh prince fashion craze'
Night in with the housemates leads to watching a couple of episodes of fresh prince of bel air. God their clothing is bloody awesome. The insanely coloured jackets, even Vivienne the mum pulls of some pretty nice jump suits that I actually want so bad. The snap back has most certainly made a come back!
When watching this show when I was younger I probably would have laughed at the clothing but now the louder the shirt the better. I love how much my fashion taste has changed.

Vintage?
After interviewing Catherine Wright an owner of a Vintage boutique in Southampton, I actually questioned what actually VINTAGE is? Is it just how old something is, is it bringing back the trends of previous era's or now a new marketing strategy for franchises like Urban Outfitters and Topshop to sell (I feel rather overpriced clothing) which really has just been made to look 'Vintagesque'.
Catherine said in the interview how wearing vintage clothing can almost give you the energy or the previous owner and as true as it is fashion speaks and tells a story of life before us and myself.
What will our generation bring to this vintage cycle?
Vintage technology? Everything I want to say our generation made popular actually has spawned from another time, and its insane to think that we live in a fashion cycle. Although we did invent the 'chav' could this catch on in the future. God I hope not.
Lets hope that these small individual vintage stores survive and continue to tell the story of generations through fashion.
