Purple Dream

Playsuit - TopShop, i made the colour a bit more vibrant because the actual light from the photograph made it look rubbish, but it is actually a softer lilac colour, cost £25 but was on sale 20% off so it was £20
Shoes- Vintage Store, i've always liked these shoes and when i was looking for a pair i came across one in office for like £60 and river island for about £70 and i was going to get them, but then i was in the country side, and i went to this cool vintage store and i found them .. they obviously weren't real leather but they were only £35 ! 
Jacket- I got the leather jacket from Italy. We were in this store and there were all these sales on and it was about £80 and we thought it was just a really nice fake leather jacket... when i got home i looked at the label and found out it was real, i was so happy! 

Israelie Pants / It's a pyjama party

i bought these trousers in a market called 'shuk ha carmel' for £4, but i was in Israel so they were actually 20 shekles. They have bob marly on them , and lots of weed :p, i think bob marly is pretty awesome. The fact that he was shot down at a peace rally but still came back to do it makes him a hero. He thought that he could cure the world from racism and hate by injecting love and music into people. Anyway this outfit is pretty chill, can be pyjamas, chilling clothes, you can go to the beach in it, the supermarket, as i said.. pretty chill.

Mmm


Believe it or not but these photographs were done by me and two other friends of mine, ok ok they arn't Abbott but they are pretty good. I mean admit, those cupcakes should be used for a cupcake shop advert!
So whats the story?
right and left photo are both from portobello market. What an amazing day it was there! and everyone has their own style, their own confidence, their own goals. I dropped one of my cupcakes, but the sales man gave me another one for free! To be honest even though it can get very busy when i move out i would love to live in portobello. The houses are all different colours its amazing! I'd be in the purple one.. or yellow?
The girl in the middle is one of my best friends, Zoe. She's lived all over. Chicago, Korea, Texas, Israel. Her style is pretty awesome and changes too.
Like the photos?

FrenchFashion

I met these four girls while I was in covent garden with a friend on a hunt for good fashion. The pair on the left are from France, the pair on the right are from Switzerland. So it sort of proves what we already knew, the Europeans have got style!
Leather Jacket. Tassle Bag. Sling Bag. Ray Bans. Harem Pants. Denim Jacket. Denim Shorts. Ect.
I hope you like these, i wish i got better photos of their whole outfits, but i think you can see the gist. i also like the photo's in generals. Also sorry if you disagree with the sepia effect. I thought it added a little something. And as i said before, summer's nearly here. So flaunt your summer styles guys. I'm thinking Fashion school in Paris or Switzerland? 

DenimSpot


I heard the word on the street is denim on denim is back in style, well I'm two steps ahead of you. Summer is back in as well (which is an extreme accomplishment for England), and finally i can wear some shorts! I always thought the red bricks behind my house would be a good place to take photographs, especially the blue on red. Ok, I think I'm just rambling on now.
Shorts - were originally jeans from Hollister
Shirt - old topshop, something similar from vintage shops
Jacket - H&M (i love that store, easy and inexpensive)
Necklaces - Grandmothers
Hair Colour - Garnier ;)
Whats the story behind this photo. Well i was about to walk my dog, ben, but i walk outside and realise im in my pyjamas, so i go back inside and decide that i might as well wear the clothes im going to wear tomorrow while i walk the dog. So i go to my closet, and for some reason i just can't decide what to wear! So i scavange and scavange and i put together some peices i bought long ago, and I'm looking at myself and im pleased with the outcome. So i take my camera out side and vwala i have a picture.
That was probably a very pointless essay
oh well.
