smellypops needs you!

My good friend smellypops needs all your lovely people's help.
She's starting up her own little business making these damn hot blingin' phone cases and she (and I) want you people to buy buy BUY all you can :)
They'll be awesome for christmas presents and/or stocking fillers, and I suggest you get your order in soon as they obviously can't be left too late to be sent off due to the xmas postie.



Contact details are on the flyer, she does basically any theme that you want, and if not gives fantastic alternatives!

Soz + Chips

So, I apologise to everyone for me not tweeting much recently. I've been pretty run down with uni work (now that I'm a proper student and what not).
I thought I'd post up some pics of what I've been doing with my life since September...



This was the final image for my first project. Based around the icon of a top hat I had to style a shoot on the influences that I got from my research.

Stylist: Sam Potter
Model: Sean Fox
Photographer: Sophie Muggleton + Jade Minchin

I need YOU!

So I haven't blogged for a while, soz and chips. There's been lots going on with the flat and now I have to get on with this summer holiday project.
As I've finally had time to blog, this means that I have finally got a day off from everything and I intend to make full use of this 'nothingness' day. I am currently sitting at my dining table in a pair of jeans I haven't worn in about a year and didn't even know still fit me, hair scraped back, listening to Guns'n'Roses.

So the main point of this post is I need some people to model for me next week for my summer holiday project. If you own any of these garments (preferably more than one, please get in contact!):
- T Shirt
- Leather Jacket
- Tuxedo
- Trench coat
- Shirt
- Little Black Dress
- Jeans
- Shoes (REALLY nice or unusual ones)
- Handbag
- Printed scarf
- Corset
- Bikini
- Hat
- Suit
These all apply for mens and womens fashion so anything would be good :) Let me know if you can help out. Thanks x

Longest day ever

My day today started at 6am. Despite putting my alarm on for 6.30 my body decided an earlier start would be better :/ After paying £18 for a bloody travel card just because it was peak time, I had to sit on a train with all the 'suits'. This did give me time to start reading a book that I was supposed to start in the first year of my National Diploma at college, 'A Room Of Ones Own - Virginia Wolfe'.
It was the day of the big 'meeting' at Anna Lou today. Well I say 'meeting' quite loosely as it was more like an interview! :( Stacey, the office manager was really helpful, just generally natting to me about the intern and what I'll be doing during the trade shows, basically everything that she'd already said in the email saying that the intern was mine. It wasn't until Anna actually came in and totally confused me. She asked about my experience and what I wanted to get out of the intern. Then she asked whether I'd be interested in doing office experience (what I didn't understand was whether this means I still have the placement at the trade shows or that she wants me in the office instead?). At the end of the meeting she said I will hear from her by Friday so fingers crossed!
This didn't put me in a very good mood, and I had to travel back to Waterloo on the train in the boiling heat. But I was about to spend the day with my favourite smellypops :)
The reason for this day out was to put my £18 travel card to good use and to get some fabric from Shepards Bush market for the cushions that are being made for me. Well, the fabric wasn't bought but we did put the travel cards to VERY good use, not on the tube but on the buses! After tattoo shops, photobooths, pizza hut and the weather being FAR too hot I had a pretty good day that made me forget all about my disheartening meeting this morning.
Now that I am home I am finding it difficult to remember even leaving my house this morning. A big, well deserved lie-in is in order tomorrow before I go to work and then off to Flat 4 for the first sleep over! Yep, I'm WELL excited! :D

FYI. 31st August - Watch this space! ;)

Miss you!

The one thing I'm going to miss the most once I've left Essex.

Aggy <3 BFF's!

All work no play

After spending my WHOLE weekend at work I am finally home, despite my train being delayed by 20 minutes! :( I have one more shift at work tomorrow night and that's my extra long busy weekend over with. I have managed to get some bits for Flat 4 over the past few days, I think I have decided on neutral tones as the colour scheme so that I can adapt it to pretty much anything. Including an adaptation to these little beauties.. Which Alison has ever so kindly agreed to make me to go on my swish sofa bed.


So these are the bits I've bought, yes they look boring, but wait until I start accessorizing everything! ;) (more pictures to come) Oh and the IKEA sale ended today, well gutted! :(

My meeting at Anna Lou is getting closer and I still have no idea what I'm going to wear. Tonight I might go through some outfits and see what I can throw together (realistically that's exactly what's going to happen!)
