Life Laundry

So, I got back from holiday (apologies for my absence by the way, I have been galavanting!) and felt the urge to get rid of everything I own, seeing as I was quite happy living out of a little bag for a week, having an entire wardrobe full of clothes I never wear seemed a bit silly...

So yes, there are lots of lovely shoes, clothes and jewellery ranging from Topshop to Tatty Devine! Including everything in the photos above of course. Help me clear out my wardrobe and get yourself something pretty here. Spread the word!

Lick My Legs

I first wrote about Lick My Legs back in the early days of this blog, just about the time when I was starting to post fairy regularly (by that I mean more than once a month...) which you can read here if you want to!

But nothing much has changed, I'm still a Lick My Legs fan and they still do raunchy T-shirts... I pretty much love all of them, especially the last leggy one and the bracey guy... These images are from their S/S lookbook.

London Fashion Week Preview

From top to bottom: Alice Palmer, Anja Mlakar, Georgia Hardinge, Hermione de Paula, Tze Goh, Matthew Miller and Maria Francesca Pepe all from Fashion156 LFW Preview issue

Instead of donning the heels and copious amounts of black for London Fashion Week this season, I'll be at home celebrating my beautiful niece's first birthday (she is truly a LFW baby...) and going on a little holiday with the lovely boy. Therefore I will have to live vicariously through all of you guys and the rest of the internet to get my LFW fix.

My first port of call is always Fashion156 who put together a LFW preview issue the week before LFW kicks off, giving us a sneak preview of up and coming designers featured in LFW. This season is no different, with some of my favourite designers (Hermione de Paula and Georgia Hardinge) making an appearance. I love that you can instantly see which designer is which just from their trademark design touches, Hermione de Paula's floral prints, Maria Francesca Pepe's hard edged jewellery and Alice Palmer delicate knitwear.

Make sure to follow Fashion156 through LFW as they will be reporting on every show, party, street style look and backstage gossip.

Have a look at their LFW Preview Issue here, make sure to watch the video shot on location at Somerset House here as well.

(p.s. It's also been pretty much a year since I started posting on here properly but I completely missed the anniversary so I shall have to do something to celebrate soon, perhaps a giveaway if you're good...)

Dan Mountford Double Exposure

These are a few double exposure prints, taken by Dan Mountford. I'm a little bit in love with double exposure shots even if they're just by accident, but these are a little bit amazing, I especiallylove the one of the city scape on the back of a girls' head...

For more info, images and to buy prints visit his website.

Ooh, Happy Valentine's day too everybody!

Girl

A short and sweet post today as I've got to rush off to work right about now... These photos are by Scott Stemberg for Band of Outsiders, showing Kirsten Dunst wandering around a botanical garden, having tea with an elephant and generally having a jolly nice time and looking delightful whilst doing it.

Bravo Bravissimo

I rarely ever do shop reviews, but when Bravissimo approached me and offered me a proper bra fitting I jumped at it. I have a, shall we say, rather ample bosom, and find it hard to find pretty yet supportive underwear so generally just end up wearing plain black over the shoulder boulder holders all the time. Any time I've tried to venture into more exciting lingerie (ie. colour or lace...) there s bound to be spillages...

Bravissimo offer supportive, pretty, well fitting underwear for women with D-KK cups, the majority of the styles are rather more mature than I would choose, but there is something for everyone. I picked out, with the help of the lovely Kat in the Manchester store, some black plunges, purple satin numbers and finally this leopard print set (which I can't seem to find online...) which tickled my fancy that you can see above.

I went in a 34D and came out a 32E/F... I couldn't believe the difference it makes, the proper support at the back lifts everything up to where it should be and the way it's shaped makes me look a dress size smaller, win and a half.

To any girlies out there with bigger boobs and an un-inspiring underwear drawer, I thoroughly recommend a trip to Bravissimo, the fitting is free and you don't have to buy anything unless you want to. You also get a little personalised size card with instructions how to check if your bra is fitting properly.

The Beautiful and the Damned

This is the new collection from Stylestalker, the design lovechild of Rachel Zeilic and Sue-Ann San, and I am a little bit in love with it...

The elegant shirts, the touches of leather, intricate lace and full skirts make this collection beautiful. With a slight sense of darkness, these pieces offer effortless style by the bucket load.

The collection is available to buy online here. For more info and images, visit their website.

p.s. You can see the video that accompanies the look book here.

April and Harry

I first stumbled across April and Harry's work after falling a little bit in love with Norwegian Wood's S/S 2010 lookbook images.

In real life April and Harry are April Lea and Harry Huu, who work together to produce rather beautiful imagery. I've picked out a few of my favourites for you to peruse, but visit their website for a proper look! I love the eerie mood and beauty within each image, it makes me want to put on some massive heels and lounge around in the fog...

Love and Rivalry

These pretty images have been taken by Anastasia Cazabon, they're part of a collection entitled Love and Rivalry and these are the nicer ones... I love the lighting and sense of prettiness about them.

For more info and images, visit her website.

Apologies for the lack in posting recently, I've been a busy little person flitting around the country but I've had a delightful weekend in Kent visiting mine and the boy's family, jolly nice times for all!
