yeah lets frolic in the fields.

life is a dancefloor.

A couple of random shots of me, from the shoot with my friend.

a mix of taste.

These are some of the second set of photos i took of my friend. I loved the colour of the skirt, and the girlishness of it and decided to pair it with the tribal print top for a complete contrast, yet i think the colours work really well together. Again we have rings, but also wooden bracelets to go with the top. I loved the look with converse to really quirk the look up. I really love the soft lighting in the first photo and so i made the rest have an earthy tone to the photo. I'm starting to find i like it better behind the camera!

a new world.

These are the first set of photos i took took of my friend. I loved the dress with the wet look leggings and my friends hair went so well with the look too. I took so many photos but i decided these three were the best, the lighting was so good and i decided to do a near black and white image. It was kind of an effortless look, but with attitude, my friend pulled it off perfectly. What do you think guys?

everyday is a dress up.

All clothes vintage, Wrangler denim jackets, Benetton crop top, velvet riding hat.

Accessories, rings - Accessorize and Dorothy Perkins.

missoni, queen of knitwear? i think so.

One of my favourite designers is Angela Missoni, and she didn't disappoint for fall 2010. Her designs, to me are what a collection should be, they run through completing each other with the whole of the designs looking slightly different each time. I also love all the different layers and elements that create the outfit, it gets built up until it looks complete and engaging. Missoni is one of the collections, that i love every piece (like Rodarte, Chanel). She uses knitwear throughout, and she never has an off season.

My absolute favourite collection is her fall 2009. Just the signature image of layers of scarfs, round the head in a certain way sets off the look immediately, creating this wrapped up feeling in crisp snow. The colour palette brings a fresh outlook onto a fall collection, and the use of fabrics, floral, knit, tweed, fur etc expands the overall look to greater more unique scale. It was so hard to pick my favourites to show, i wanted to upload all of them!

However her spring/summer 2010 was just as amazing, i mean who else can create a summer collection out of knitwear and make it look exotically cool, with holey knit dresses and hareem trousers. It transports you to a Sahara desert, through the bead wear, light layers, again keeper to her signature layers and elements, and even right down to the shoes, to create almost a story of this girl on her travels.

Her latest fall collection, was just as crazy with bold tribal prints, beautiful entwined into the wool. However its more darker, with quite structured pieces in way, an opposite look to the fall 2009. These seem more uniquely shaped with knit halternecks, open ponchos fastened at a different height. Patchworks seem occurant, almost as if this was a tribe charging out, however there is slightly a futuristic sense to this collection, maybe because of the striped, zig zags and high necked collars. Which collection do you prefer?

Also I have just recently set up a flickr account to display some of my none fashion related photography. I take my camera round with me alot and i love to edit photos, i'm working on a reflection topic at the moment. Check it out http://www.flickr.com/photos/48798716@N06/
