She's a mess of gorgeous chaos .. you can see it in her eyes..

I toyed with the idea of actually admitting where this lace dress was from.. because if you could describe Vicky Martin clothes in one word that word would most probably be tacky! So in my defence I have had this dress for about eight years and I would never wear it in the way I once did... but thats another story. 

I wanted to find a way of making it wearable and I guess it kinda worked. 

I've been crazy mad busy as of late, my life is chaotic and my brain is messy...  I've had some really cool shoots, met some really cool people, made some pretty big changes, had a job interview in the capital and been having an all round good time - alas - this couldn't go on forever so now I've got a mad week catching up on all my neglected university work. 

I've been living on caffeine and adrenaline so if anybody has any more sensible ways of having energy I welcome them... 

I've included a couple of photos I did last week.

Hope everybody is having a happy week.

Strangers making the most of the dark....

Baby it's COLD outside... this mesh jumper was nearly the death of me today, no warmth what so EVER - But I love it so who the hell cares! 

After reading a few of my posts back I am completely aware that what I write isn't as grammatically correct or articulate as it could be; without blowing my own trumpet I can write 'well' when required but it's never how I wanted my blog to be, on here I write as if I'm talking to my pals.. so apologies to all the english language police on patrol. 

I applaud River Island for these jeans... acid wash.. studded.. long length... I'd go as far as to say the perfect denim I've ever bought! 

I'm on a blogging role this week and plan to blog some more over the weekend as well since I'm having a 'quiet one'

Dancing on sleazy ground...







(Jersey-Topshop  Gilet-Topshop  Watch-Michael Kors  Creepers-Underground) 

I am trying my hardest to blog every week but it's been tricky as of late... 

It also dawned on me that many of my followers don't have the first clue about what I do... which isn't much but I thought I would enlighten you all!

I have a degree in Design Management for Fashion Retailing, I wish I could say it was as interesting as the title sounds, but it really wasn't... lots of sums and science'y type lectures.

I then decided my true passion was Journalism and I'm doing a postgrad masters in Multimedia Journalism which I am loving... I was also lucky enough to spend my placement at The Sun newspaper which was amazing! 

I'm also a make-up artist by trade... although as my friends know it really isn't my passion, I was lucky enough to work for MAC for around 3 years which means I have crazy amounts of beautiful MAC products which is a big fat plus!

So I'm actually boring myself now so if your still reading and haven't switched off... TAR-RAH!
