Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2012 favourites

In all honesty I've never been the hugest fan on D&G mainly because I haven't been very aware of their clothing. I have fallen in love with their Fall collection - really quite gothic and royal, a lot of detail and embroidery. I absolutely adore the shoes and lace socks as well. Below is my favourite item so far, they're almost like pillars of a grand mansion or something - stunning!

an update!

• I haven't posted in a very very long time. I thought I would just make an update with what's going on and what-not. I have a job now! I work at Orkney Handcrafted Furniture, making and crafting chairs, website here, it's pretty long hours and I don't have a lot of time to do other things with school and all that but it's great experience and I'll continue for a little while more.

• I've been thinking about what I want to do in the future and I can imagine working in fashion, definitely. Maybe journalism, design, photography, I'm not quite sure yet. I know it's a hard industry, I'm young and I'm determined. I want to learn and create and explore.

• Anyway I'm hoping to post a lot  more once I get a new camera (Canon eos 550, hopefully quite soon). I want to change up my blog a little bit and post more pictures of other people, interesting places and experiences, maybe some DIY stuff and some street style perhaps and thoughts etc. etc.

Paris is the dream.

If I was to have one wish it would be to live in Paris. I can imagine having a successful job, maybe in fashion, living in a little apartment building in the middle of Paris, drinking coffee in a Parisian café and exploring everything it has to offer! I love the busy-lifestyle and the French language and culture. I have only visited France once when I was 10 and admittedly we spent most of the time in Disneyland but I dream of going there again and next time I will make an effort to really make it count!

What came in the post today...

A couple of things from Topshop: I love the skirt, it's really comfortable, the shape is flattering and it's very lightweight (not too good in the wind!). After hearing great reviews for Topshop Leigh jeans I decided to give them a try, they are so lovely, soft and also fit perfectly - like a second skin! I'm really excited to see what I can wear with these :)

Cut and Stick!

I love reading magazines, well to be perfectly honest I prefer looking at the photographs and clothes. To keep inspiration alive I decided to grab a copy of ELLE, cut/rip out some of my favourite spreads, ads and edits and stick them above my bed.

Also hope you all had a good, chocolate-fueled Easter! :)
