Insanity overJeremy Scott's 90's revival!!

Whilst catching up on the shows that I missed out on seeing over all the fashion weeks, I stumbled across Jeremy Scott's AW 11 show at NYFW. HOW COME I HAVE ONLY JUST SEEN THIS??? I'm going crazy over it! Absolute shout out to Amber and Di from 'Clueless'?!?!

If I could walk around Sunderland like this without getting bricks thrown at me I would in a heartbeat! Neon angora minis, multi-coloured bunches, shout out to super heroes!! HELLS YEAH!!

One of my favourites...


<3

Love, Love, Love this!

Along side the photography module, we are also doing a live brief project for Tommy Hilfiger. Designing a range of graphic tees shirts for both men and women. The themes are, for women, 'Scribble Love', 'Americania', and 'Punk'. And for the gents, 'Varsity' and 'Autoshop'.....

Doing my research for the 'Scribble Love', I came across some really cute things that really inspired me.






Hopefully, I'll get designing some good stuff....because the student with the best overall project and final designs gets a placement in JAPAN! YES PLESEEEEE <3 .



Year Two Fashion Photography Project

So, this week we got the brief for our latest photography project. We have to create a front cover in the style of an existing magazine. I've chosen to focus on Dazed and Confused magazine. Chosing this magazine allows me to be a little bit more flexible with the ideas I have.

One main idea I have so far is this......


I've taken my inspiration from the A.N.T.M episode 'Hobbits vs. Models',





Fingers crossed it goes the way I hope... I'll keep it posted xoxo

A Day At House of Holland

I've been so busy recently I haven't had time to keep up with my blog, that I've only just started! (Tut, tut! need more dedication to the cause!) I haven't even had time to share the details about potentially the most exciting thing EVER!

I applied for an internship at House of Holland at the beginning of the month, I heard back the very next day and was invited down for a trial day the following Tuesday.

I travelled down to London on the Monday afternoon, with my wonderful housemate Natalie, who had a Fashion PR placement interview and stay over in the Generator Hostel (....student budget. Got to find the bargains!!)

I was asked to be at the House of Holland office for 10.30. I wasn't actually expected Henry to be there, but he was infact the first person I saw when I walked through the door.

I did doing errands for the first part of the morning, it was great just getting a real feel for. Came back and had lunch with Henry, Jamie, Jess and the rest of the staff! Everyone was so nice and welcoming. Nick Grimshaw popped in for dinner, honestly such a nice person! And so funny!

In the afternoon, Henry and the team finalised the pieces that would be getting shown in the LFW show. Everything in the collection was so fresh and funky! The absolute essense of HOH.

I was asked to come down and work for two weeks for LFW at HOH, but my job back at home wouldnt give me the time off , DEVASTATED!


Thankfully, I have been offered to go down for September's fashion week, and also a full time internnship during my third year of study. Absolutely too excited for words <3
