In respect of her presence

Had a small play about with my macro lens the other day -when putting out the dead bunch of flowers to replace them with a nice new beaming bunch of flowers- and had a bit of fun really. I like experimenting with photography a lot of the time, especially macro photography and making the images obscure. Anyway, thought I'd make a small post on another aspect of my life, I lost a lot of interest over the year as I didn't go out too much to capture these images however I think college will definitely relight this love.

Please leave any feedback or photography you'd like me to look at and comment on, I'm always happy to help.

Sunday Portrait #3

1. In a week it's apparent my hair has faded considerably less which has resulted in a less ginger me and a more blonde me, I'm also planning on getting my fringe cut not this week but the week after and putting lilac on it if the stand test goes well! But I'm thinking of getting a full/side fringe cut in because in the winter this hair is just uncontrollable really, I bet I'll pussy out as per usual if I can manage to make my hair beautiful like this every day. 

2. Mutti and I made brownies today, they didn't go all as well as we'd hoped but they are still perfect. Also went out to walk my grandma's dog but I came up a bit later and he saw me a good 5 or 7 metres down the road and ran at lightening speed towards me, oh he's such a little cutie. I'm now just relaxing on my bed watching x factor and wishing my boyfriend would talk to me.

3. Last week was the 3.5 year anniversary since my boyfriend and I got together, and the little cutie bought me 50 red roses and 3 teddy bears to go with the other 3 he'd previously bought me. I'm such a special girl, no lie. 

Hope you have all had a good weekend, I most defiantly did.

Because wearing black looks mysterious

I don't have anywhere I can set up my camera to get actual outfit posts and such like as I've lost part of my tripod therefore it's deemed useless. But this was my outfit for one of my days at college, decided the best and only way was all black with patterned cardigan and my doc's. Bloody love them I do!

Hope everyone is having a good week, college work is starting to catch up on my but I promise to try and keep up with my blogging.

Theres a fire inside of you

The world of fashion and beauty most definitely comes at a cost, a cost we can barely afford. Black Milk clothing produce an amazing variety of graphic print clothing that some people are willing to spend £40 or more on, now I would if my allowance wasn't only £80 and I'd easily work hard to place the lot in my wardrobe, however situations have left most of us students alike; borrowing money from our parents and printing endless CV's. 

Personally I've wanted a pair of Lava or Galaxy leggings from the first sight, but after discovering the price it's safe to say I've been put off buying them for a very long time. We're all in the same position when it comes to money and thing's we want, searching endlessly for a job and having to save our money for the "important" things in life which is clothing to me, or working endless hours after being in college to look good for time we don't actually have. Either way, we're not going down the right track currently at all.

Taking a stroll through the website I came across several items, as Black Milk collections can be in for an extremely limited time, and as beautiful as all the items were, these 6  garments just screamed at me to be bought (oh how I could fulfil your dreams little ones). I love body suits so when I spotted the skeleton one I felt like it was made for me, graphic print bodysuits are a right pain to find and I've been searching ebay for a white suit like this but despite my efforts I never suceed -it's sod's law that once I finish this post and have a search they'll be one staring me in the face!- so I'd given up hope with that and only took a spilt second to see the price and lose faith in that also; but if I did suddenly come into the investment of £50 I would happily go out treat myself as long as I knew I still had money in the bank to spend; does anyone else get that dreading fear of not having enough money in the bank? Although the bodysuits are swimsuits people wouldn't know the difference, they both have the same style so why not be used for one of the same purposes which is to look great! 

Black Milk produces some brilliant items of clothing, they're unique, stylish, and made for people who don't care about other peoples opinions which I hope you are like.

£150 to spend in Next

It's clear that Autumn is here with the weather not failing to hold back on cold moneys, strong winds and manic rain. I feel that it is time to bring out the winter coat, umbrella and find a waterproof bag for college! However, the weather doesn't stop fashion one bit at all! And Next are all stocked out ready for the A/W '11 season. I've stuck to burgundy trousers for my own personal look, but that doesn't mean this season doesn't stretch out to blush colours as well so be sure to find their blush pink roll up jeans. 

I personally love blazers, they're such a simple but strong addition to an outfit, as they're warm, stylish and suit nearly every outfit ever, what isn't to love? I've paired up the jeans with a oversized everyday white shirt, I didn't want to mix up to many different shades of brown with this outfit so I tried to stick to 2 types, which results in an easy every day casual outfit which is perfect for college, a trip out shopping, or possible even a date if you fancied jazzing it up with some brown suede heels. 

Sticking to a well in fashion pair of shoes definitely brings the outfit together, it all works well as something casual ready for Autumn and the cold days which you can pile layers underneath or possibly on top. I've thrown in a horse print scarf which reminds me of Miu's collections which easily can be ignored for those "hotter" Autumn days.

Be sure to check out Next's newest collection filling the store; they aren't always recognised for their fashion suiting younger adults, however they do produce some rare gems.

Blazer: £45 Shirt: £26 Trousers: £28 Scarf: £12 Shoes: £45

Total: £148
