Rag & Bone DIY Project

When I saw this editorial campaign, my heart skipped a beat. The concept is simple, you have one model, Rag & Bone clothes, no make up and they use their own camera to take the photos for the next advertising campaign.

The outcome, is stunning. Despite the girls in question being top models who are internationally known for their looks, the images are realistic and inspiring. You are offered a sneaky glimpse into their lives and for once, you have an advert that screams honesty.

These are a few of my favourites:

Oh I Cannot Wait For Paris

Craving the Winter....

It is summer and each year I moan about the cold weather, waiting for summer to arrive and when it does....I crave the winter. It is unreal! I just think of the long walks in the park, kicking up the golden leaves, the crisp winter air that you can feel deep inside you, the sight of your breath in the air, cute knit wear, winter boots, curling up by the fire to read books etc.....


It is as if my sense of wanderlust extends as far as seasons too. Anyway, it is a hot day and I am sheltering inside so I thought I would share with you some gorgeous winter inspired photos.....

Daily Photo Inspiration....

Here is my daily dose of inspiration for you guys....I love the care free feeling that just epitomises the summer although the smoking in this picture kind of sucks! Anyway, this photo is pure Parisian chic... 

Daily Photo Inspiration....

This is a photo of my best friend in Spain, I speak with her nearly everyday if it is possible and she has taught me so much over the past year. We met whilst I was on holiday in Tenerife, she kindly took us under her wing and guided us around the bars in Santa Cruz. She is such an inspiration to me and it is because of her that I truly feel motivated to keep on learning Spanish. How amazing are her trousers too?!!


Esta es una foto de mi mejor amigo en España, hablo con ella casi todos los días si es posible y me ha enseñado mucho en el último año. Nos conocimosmientras yo estaba de vacaciones en Tenerife, que amablemente nos tomó bajo su protección y nos guió por los bares de Santa Cruz. Ella es una inspiración para mí y es por ella que realmente se sienten motivados a seguir aprendiendo español. ¡Qué sorprendente son sus pantalones tambien?!

Inspiration for today.....

I have come up with the idea of sharing with you an image a day which I find to be really inspiring. It is a good way of showing you what is going on in my mind and keeping you updated with my thoughts. Here is today's photo...I love the combination of colours and the effortlessly stylish feel that these photos emanate. I found it on the blog 5 inch and Up....

From Catwalk To Cover-Discover The Secret World of Fashion Week

Have you ever wondered what really goes on behind the scenes during fashion week? Do you think that there must be more to it than a seemingly exclusive event where only a few fashionistas get to sit in the front row resulting in a few outfits being featured in a glossy magazine? You can now discover the secret world of fashion week at London's Fashion and Textile Museum this November when they will put the whole process from catwalk to cover under the close scrutiny of the microscope. 


The exhibition will feature a series of photographs taken by top catwalk photographers over the years and with the coverage of these photographs, no areas will be access denied. The photographs allow the viewer exclusive backstage access displaying all the different elements that make up a catwalk show-Backstage, Front Row, Catwalk and Street Style. This allows the viewer an insight into a world full of chaos and beauty which makes up the apparently glamorous fashion shows that bloggers and magazine editors alike fawn over to get the best story for their website or magazine. The shows featured include Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld, Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen and Marc Jacobs. This is a must do for any fashionista out there.
