i love this outfit! the nautical red and white stripes clashes with the preppy brogues and long socks brilliantly- a look that you wouldn't think would work but it just does! fashion cybernerds like me will tell from the statement hair that it is an Alexander Wang outfit. i posted this picture up ages ago but no one commented as it was a short and boring few sentences that i accompanied with it. so i thought you might find it more interesting if i tried to duplicate the look - keeping strictly to high street clothes only .........

u like? gap shorts, new look vest top, random socks, tan leather brogue-style boots are (believe it or not) my mums 30 year old doctor martens! she usually uses them for gardening and stuff but i think brogues are coming into fashion- preppy kids (like i am trying to be) will love these style shoes!

quick note to hols - Vivienne Westwood post is coming soon !

feeling blue??

I have been enjoying a lazy day in today, and when the devil wears prada finished, i saw the clock- it was 10 to 5. So i thought id better get out of my pj's and get on some clothes, but i sort of accidentally picked all blue things to wear, so i thought i would go the whole hog and accessorize in blue stuff too. then i found the unnatural amount of blue scarves i have , so here they all are!!

jeggings from raw, shirt dress from kimchi & blue at urban outfitters, self-made bag (the 'joy' came out backwards because my web cam does that!) headband from topshop, scarves from bambooshoot, friends, and she-mag was my grandads.

one word - WOW

lust for topshop

im saving up for some Abercrombie and Fitch jogger bottoms - i really like the washed gray color & relaxed feel of these ones and the three quarter length style makes it not too samey as lots of people have those long jack wills jogger bottoms -they are quite nice but too many people have them and they are a bit pretentious- thats why im saving up these ones- u like??
