The Long Blondes;


"Girls fantasise on school trips to galleries
Of men who don't meet their parents' expectations
Who want to introduce them to illicit Russ Meyer films,
And dance 'til dawn to old Kinks records.
These are the things you don't understand
Quarter to ten, you're wasting your time
If you want to know me, watch how I dance."
Tonight I decided to straighten my hair for the first time in months, I used to always straighten it but I decided curls were very in this year! Now i've decided curls are not so in, and after having a tantrum over how silly my hair looks I decided to gather some photos together of haircuts and book myself a hair appointment to sort this nest I have on my head out!

I have a lot of love for Whitney Port and Lauren Conrad and I envy their amazing hair...

Sass & Bide RTW AW 2010






Possibly one of my favorite collections this season. I love the tribal element to this collection, I also like the fact that a lot of the pieces are wearable for the everyday woman. My favorite piece has to be the maxi dress with the embellishments above the bust, amazing!

James Bateson

Leeds based James Bateson is one of my favorite undiscovered photographers. He carries his little camera around always looking for opportunities for a photo. He's an up and coming photographer and defiantly one to keep an eye on.






Not the most attractive photo of Alexa but, I used to own this dress! Then one day I put it in the wash basket and I've not seen it since. I loved it so much, im now on a hunt to find a new one. It looked fantastic teamed with my little Vivienne Westwood Melissa shoes and some black tights.

EDIT
Heres a photo of me rocking the dress a few years ago with a slightly more adventurous hair cut!

Lookbooks are an amazing way of gaining inspiration and learning how to put together a great looking outfit! I’ve put together this lookbook especially for the summer months. Jumpsuits are really hip and have been for a few seasons now, so make a jumpsuit purchase and you wont regret it.

This colourful one-piece is from Asos and features one of the biggest trends for this summer. Print. Colourful and very wearable teamed with a distressed denim gilet by Topshop. The distressed denim look will work with all trends this summer and is a great wardrobe staple.

Become a true fashionista and accessorise with chunky accessories and shoes, River Island have a great selection. And finally, bags. Marc by Marc Jacobs have this great clutch which works really well with the jumpsuit and is also large enough to carry the kitchen sink!

Asos Floral Fusion Jumpsuit - £45

Topshop Ice Wash Cutoff Gilet - £30

River Island Platform Strap Sandal - £49.99

River Island Wooden Bangle Pack - £19.99

Marc by Marc Jacobs Envelope Clutch - £155

Coolpix


I need a digital camera for summer as I don't trust myself with my SLR anymore.
I like the look of the Nikon Coolpix S3000, as my SLR is Nikon I know their cameras are of excellent quality. This ones around £100.



Im feeling rather ill today so I felt abit of retail therapy would cheer me up.
I just purchased this little beauty from Dixi Shop, I think it'll look perfect in my summer wardrobe!
