2012 : The statements.

Sorry I haven't posted in a long time.  I've had some personal defeats to work through and between that and trying to start a new life in a new city,  its left little time to blog!
I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and new year all the same!

I thought I'd put together three fashion ideas that made a huge impact in 2012
as far as my wardrobe goes!  I'd love to hear three key items that made your year too. :)
 

3. Crosses

I can't atually believe that this is all the items I can cook up after a year full of crosses!
I'll admit, I could have drowned myself in cross necklaces at some point in 2012, but as always ( much like everyone) I lost nearly all of them.
Have you ever seen more of a hipster symbol?  Naahhh....
2000 and 12 was definately the year of the Hipster. Ahem.
 
 
 
 

2. Studs

There was actually a point where I would stick studs on literaly everything.
I'm sure you will agree if you live in the UK.  Even River Island provided us with easy stick on studs you could attach to anything! So yes, big studs, small studs, all kinds of studs everywhere please.
I'm actually surprised the trend has lasted so long.
I wonder when studs will become old news?

1. Sweaters

TA-DAH!
I'm sure you're hardly surprised. If you've followed me for enough time, you'll know how obsessed I can be with knitwear and sweaters. This picture isn't even a snippet of what my sweater collecetion is actually like! I LOOOOVE JUMPERS :_)
I could cry. I could actually cry.
It's the only reason why I want winter to stay!
This is one of my favourites. Not only because it's an obvious sweater, but because it's tie dye too - another trend that made a comeback in 2012! I did go a little silly with tie dye. I hope it is here to stay for 2013 :)
 
 
I would love to hear what your top three are for 2012!
I also have a give away coming up shortly so keep watching! :)
All follows will be followed back!
Have a nice day :)


Middle December

Hey guys :)
So its middle December, nearly Christmas time and for once I'm probably more excited about it than New Year.
I'll admit, I'm abit of a scrooge when it comes to the festive season! Probably because when you work in retail you have ghastly over played Christmas songs thrown at you from November onwards.
So tomorrow I have a shoot with Edwin Firminger. I'll share them with you tomorrow night!
Trying to blog on a phone is hellish. I'd like to link you to his site but it won't let me! But yeah, excuse the layout and I'll be back tomorrow! Btw, thanks for all the help and the follows! It's much appreciated!

Orange candle!

Had a shot at making a candle out
 of an orange today. How exciting is my life, seriously?
Honestly though, its a nice little trick and
it looks so cute when its done.
 
  
First, peel into two halves, keeping the stem
attached to one. This acts like a natural wick.
Add some olive oil to the base
and soak the 'wick' for a few moments.


 
 
Cut a hole onto the top peel so that when you light the candle, the flame has somewhere to go.
Light with a lighter, put top peel back on top and there you go!
 

A lovely Orange candle that looks and smells awesome!
( I was so good at this that I didn't even use a proper candle!...ahem)
Little tip. False nails probably isn't a great shout.
