Maison Martin Margiela for H&M

The 15th of November is pencilled into my calendar and I could not be more excited because it is one of my absolute favourite designers collaborating with H&M..how perfect! Aside from J.W Anderson for Topshop this is going to be by far one of my favourite collaborations ever! Every piece is timeless and definitely worth investing in. Bonne Lecture

Today I'm Wearing





Been a seriously lazy blogger as of late, absoloutely swimming in uni work. I have all my last hand in dates next week and then I have finished my first year of uni..gone by crazy quick! Will upload all photos from my finished work and my magazine. This is just a quick post, think I will start doing regualar 'Today I'm Wearing' posts, as I will have way too much free time on my hands over my 5 months of summer! Today I need to be comfy as I am spending my whole day in the library working on indesign, so I am wearing one of my favourite pairs of Kurt Geiger ankle boots, Jack Wills skinny jeans, Topshop jumper, Zara coat and my big Zara bag
p.s sorry for the state of my uni room!

A completed photo shoot

Finally completed my editorial photo shoot for my 'Dazed and Confused' assignment. I chose to do the shoot on Surrey Downs and it was so bloody cold, I was hoping for sun but instead I got grey skies and crazy winds! But to be honest I quite like the grey, pale sky..it complements the clothes and scenery pretty well. My lovely friend Katie Leask was the photographer and my gorgeous model was Laura Butler who was incredibly professional and amazing to work with. The clothes where a selection from Zara, H&M, River Island and Topshop. What do you think of the photos?

Craig Mc Dean: Flower Girls

Craig McDeans new story for Interview magazine was beyond beautiful but I definatley recognised this editorial and have seen it done quite a few times before, I didnt have to look far to see how many times this has been done but I can't decide who did it best! What do you think?

Kinda loving Carven right now

Who knew that when Guillaume Henry took over couture house Carven and reinvented it as an affordable ready-to-wear luxury label it would have been sold out at every British retailer that carries it? I cannot help but wish every single item was in my wardrobe, each piece has a luxury couture heritage, but it is so wearable and chic. Carven is a good price when it comes to high end fashion but as a starving student I can only dream!

Still Life

For my Dazed and Confused still life shoot I have had to do further research into other magazines similar to Dazed as they don't really ever shoot still life so I have struggled to find inspiration and a good example as to what would fit in with the magazine's ethos and style. But I have found a shoot in 'Another' magazine that I love purely because of the minimalistic and graphic style that they have used.

Trend Analysis

I have again been scanning through the fashion weeks and these are just a few of the trends that I think are prominent and will be continuously copied on the high street. I have also included this as I found it very difficult to choose one particular favourite trend for my dazed and confused editorial as this has been one of my favourite seasons for fashion ever!
