still has that magic innocence to them. In this post is a couple of
my favourite new models I think will make it big some day.

FASHION/ 1994

This collage is made up of all the clothing and more that remind
me of 1994, which I would have been about the age of 10, but
still remember with fondness. From leggings and flannelet (I
thought I was so cool) to obscure handmade jewelery and boxy
sounding music, 1994 had a lot of charisma and personality.

STYLE/ My Favourite Things

This post see's the return of one of my favourite posts to write,
my favourite things. There is a wide range of my favourite things
this week from sunglasses to bodywash, almost every area is
covered. Be sure to let me know what your fave things are to




And here is the rest of it.





I am a huge bag addict (more then shoes) and so when I was
looking at the web recently, I came across this amazing bag that
I have just fallen in love with. This large, fringed bag is something
I could imagine one of the rolling stones gorgeous girlfriends
carrying around. It is made of leather and comes in black or grey.

For some reason I am always drawn to really bright and stand out
dresses, much like the one above. This dress by lonely hearts is
not only red, my all time favourite colour, the style of it is also really
cool and modern with the big silver zip going down the center which
you can undo in summer and wear your bikini underneath. This dress
has personality, adorable pockets and I'm sure would suit most any
body type.


Listen: Loney Hearts @ Beloved





I have become addicted to moisturiser this winter, it feels as though
every part of my body is covered in cold dry weather. Well it was, but
luckily not anymore. A couple of weeks ago I started using a great body
wash moisturiser by Dove (the classic beauty brand) this one is in a new
line of fresh products Dove has bought out. The thing I really love about
this body wash is that it smells so lovely, as it is labeled, like waterlily and
mint and it also has 1/4 moisturiser so it leaves your skin feeling smooth.

Bright, funky, colourful, thick and quirky. I am one of those people
who always lose their sunglasses, so I tend not to spend too much
money on brand name sunnies, this ofcourse is totally thrown out the
window when new Karen Walker sunglasses hit the store. Karen
Walker sunglasses are different to the others, they seem to stand
out more, suit most people and just make them 100 times cooler
when they wear them. They are pieces of fashion artwork and owning
a pair is like owning something you could imagine Andy Warhol
wearing if he were still alive today.

Melissa shoes are all pieces of fantastic plastic! When I was a child
I actually used to own a pair of plastic shoes called jellybeans, but
now as a grown up I can wear ones like these with a heel. These
shoes are all bright, fun and probably unlike most shoes you will
have worn (yet). They make your outfit that much more special and
definitely catch the attention of passers by. The wonderful Vivienne
Westwood even collaborated with Melissa to design a range together,
now what could be better then that?
