All that glitters..

Hey again. This is going to be my last past for about 5 days,as I'm off to Edinburgh! I do have a 5.30am start tomorrow though, which isn't exactly brilliant..

Anyway, so inbetween packing and puzzling over the mysterious murder-scene like state of my cream carpet (turns out I'd cut my foot and not realised- great!)I've got just enough to time to put up some pictures. This is the third outfit from the arboretum shoot (see 'Let sleeping dresses walk' and 'Colourful Creations'.)
This gold shrug is my favourite item of the moment. It made it's way through several people's dressing up boxes before landing in mine when I was about 5 or 6. I recently rediscovered it hiding under some brightly coloured scarves and realised how much it needed a permanent place in my wardrobe. It'seven vintage Pret-a-porter, no I've looked at it closely! The jeans are from ebay, and they're not actually meant to be cropped (being 5"8 does have a few drawbacks.) The black top is from H&M, the ankle boots are thrifted Zara (I love the zip detail!) The battered gold pendant/ locket is from Rosie's vintage stall and the belt is an original seventies one that my paternal czech grandma gave me.
Thanks as ever to the lovely Flo for amazing photography!

Here I've also included some of my latest fashion design sketches. I've been working really hard on my drawing technique over the summer, looking at figures and fabric etc.. I'd really like to hear what you think about them!

Look forward to catching up when I get back. So for now, au revoir...
