Last Freshers week this week, time to calm down and start work soon. But the first week in uni has been crazy and fun, and I've met soo many amazing people. I can't describe how inspiring it is to be somewhere with SO many other arty and fashion-y people.

I am an avid follower of http://www.fashiontoast.com/; she is definitely one of  my idols. Just had to post this dress because it is absolutely stunning, although don't think it would look anywhere near as amazing if you didn't have her stunning figure! She is designing her own collection for RVCA and it is all beautiful, the dress will be available to buy on her site in Summer 2010

Bye Bye Swansea!

Leaving Swansea this weekend for uni, and that includes leaving my work buddies in the lovely Somerfield. So we had a massive night out last night, as three of us were leaving. Was awesome but gutted I didn't take a photo of my full outfit before we left last night since I was quite proud of it.

Toxic Vision

Have to post this amazingly rock 'n' roll clothing designer I have found, Toxic Vision. All garments are hand made by one woman, Sharon Toxic, who is also so gorgeous she models all her own clothes. I'd love to be able to pull off wearing clothes like this, and they are absolutely stunning...

BunnyBlack

I've been thinking about what I would do if I had a clothing company for a while now, and it seemed inevitable that I would call it 'BunnyBlack,' since that's what I've used for just about everything I do on the internet/ anywhere I can't use my own name. So I had a brain wave last night, in bed, about what the logo would be.
Kinda like this:

I think it would have a creamy background, and obviously that's just the first drat (even though I spent all morning doing it!). I also think that would look awesome in cross stitch.

Model

I've seen this model (right) in Topshop windows everywhere and just want to say I think she's gorgeous (although her eyes are kinda freaky and follow you everywhere). However, I can't seem to find out her name- does anyone out there know who she is?

Best Weekend Of My Life. Ever.

I thought it would be cool to  have the first post on my blog about the best weekend of my life. Ever. So here it is!

I got back from the Reading Festival on Monday, and have only just re-adjusted to normal life! Having real silence, a real toilet, something to sit on apart from hard ground, being able to eat a meal that stayed hot the until you finished it. I don't know how to describe the amazingness of Reading, but it really was like it's own world in there. About 70,000 people attended a day, about 90% of them being 18-22 year old indie kids! I've never seen so many people in one place that were like me. My top six artists were: Florence and the Machine, Deadmau5 (an awesome DJ who everyone went crazy for but I didn't know before), Fallout Boy, Arctic Monkeys, Youmeatsix, Lost Prophets. It was insane to think all of those amazing artists were all in one place.
The whole thing was amazing, and definitely one of the best experiences of my life.

I'm also obsessed with Florence and the Machine now, I don't know what it is about Florence Welch but I really admire her. She has beautiful hair at the moment, I really want to dye my hair red like hers but I think it might look like I'm trying to copy my boyfriend who has ginger hair!
