The world is a vampire...


So this is me super tired climbing our outside stairs which always look particularly menacing...  I am really struggling as I have just ate my weight in noodles :-S we had Smashing Pumpkins on in the car- love everything about them... and plus I think I can do a killer Billy Corgan impression... my friends dont quite agree....

Day of the Dead...



Hey guys this is the Saturday gear... always comfy on a day off!!! I got this T on ebay I am sure there are loads more interesting ways I could of worn it but today Jeans seemed like the most perfect option.
I had to shoot this one in my front room and I am a little bit obsessed with making my flat look like the Mexican celebrations "Day of the Dead" there are some fabulous things online... here are some paintings we managed to source- skulls are not creepy when they are bright blue!?....
Hope you are having a fabulous day wherever you are x

The world is more dangerous than it really is....




Hey guys

I am supppper tired tonight hence the homeless look- comfiest outfit ever though- I must have a gazillion hats and this one is never off my head- it was a gift from a beloved junkie who used to come to the thrift shop I worked at... no unfortunately my work was not anything like The Wire...
I did however return home tonight to a gift from my boy- which I have been lusting over for live everrrrr...
"Beauty in Decay" is a beautiful book full of perfect eeerie-ass photographs its effortlessly amazing!
If your design sense or taste is anything similar to me you will love this book- The angel is one of my favourtie images- I am sure there is like mountains of symbolism with this pic but I am far too blonde and tired to think about this!!!

Enjoy and do check it out...

jesus was an only son...


so today I am actually hanging together hence the sunglasses...
late nights and early starts are not the way forward...
I got this scarf today from a dear friend back home from which I have just returned- getting my geordie swagger intact again..
The shoes I got a couple of years back in KG I fell for the angry looking punk-ass studs on the front- no messin and all that- they cripple me to walk in though- no pain- no game...

Just scoping your civilian wardrobe...

Hey guys...
Weekends here- gotta be practical and warm- guna team this with my ridiculously OTT snorkel parka complete with orange lining oh yeah old school!
I tried to "crimp" my hair last night but ended up looking like Twisted Sister this morning.... error so trying to containg it with a million hair grips!!!
I was struggling to think of a name for this look as they usually go with the theme of the outfit so I thought I would take it from one of the best quotes from the Lost Boys...

Sam Emerson: Got a problem, guys?
Edgar Frog: Just scoping your civilian wardrobe.
Sam Emerson: Pretty cool, huh?
Alan Frog: For a fashion victim.

giggle giggle giggle...
RIP Corey Haim

I am still getting over Feldman being on UKs Dancing on Ice?!


Enjoy your weekend folks wherever you are

Bada Bing...!





Hey guys- sorry about the lack of posts and chat this week,,,, busy busy and all that- I thought I would dedicate today to my love for all things Sopranos so I mixed up my dress with a Bada Bing T that I stole from my boyfriend!!!...
The dress is Topshop Boutique- I do rather love it- its not the easiest thing to wear with the hip bunch sorta gives that "child bearing hips" phrase a new meaning? but the colour did just win me over...

Im risking going out without tights tonight- in Scotland and in January... yup im trippin allrite...
the last picture is a shot of my future husband Moltisanti Gangsta Chic'
I gotta get myself a shell suit...

Take it easy kids

Hey little sister...Shotgun...

Again another daytime shot- nothing too crazy here... got some killer prints sorted hopefully within the next month I will be getting a few samples sorted to test the water- its all so very exciting I would like to think the look would be the lovechild of Jesus and Billy Idol.... thats the aim anyways...
Gota real urge to watch the Sopranos again... im felling gangsta' if I do go ahead with this the references I make will get old- fast... but you gotta love it...
Just realised how miserable I look here- I wear so much lipstick its hard to distinguish my mouth these days...

Since we're feeling so anesthetised...




Hey Guys- this is my work outfit no times for a costume change fraid.... grrr I wish I had more time!!!
This would be my interview wear hence why I never do interviews... and hence why I would never be taken too seriously in the real world where people wear like suits and pencil skirts and gaping blouses & stuff.... narrrrrrr not for me-

I took a picture of the Cherub silk scarf I found in a charity shop and I just recently found in my dressing room- I love that feeling when you find something you totally forgot you had... The shoes again are like Minnie Mouse on Acid- another thrift shop- tacky tacky tacky to the max but its pure love from me...

Gota dash- remember to check out my ebay -

I'll steal your Honey, like I stole your Bike...!?


Hey guys- the content of this post is pretty rubbish tonight- had to do a quick costume change when I got in from work, I never wear this gillet that much as sometimes I feel I look like I'm wearing a gorilla fancy dress from behind....? 
hmmmm... I do love it though...
The dress is Evil Twin- so easy to wear if you are 6ft plus- I however am not therefore I have to wear anything with a ridiculous heel- The bag I got from H&M for like a fiver years ago and I literally am besotted with it- I have even used the print in some of my prints... Versatile oh yeh thats the me!
I was listening to the Beastie Boys full blasts in my car on the way home- MCing all the way BOOOM hence the title...

I forgot to post on here yesterday Im having a mini clear out and thought I would link you guys up to my Ebay- everything goes mega cheap, I get robbed everytime but hey it frees me some coathangers?!
Hit me up on-

If you aint cowboy- you aint shit...

Sunday eve again BOOOOOOOOOOO...

went for a stroll about Edinburgh today hence the slightly offensive casual look- I got a bizarre look from the lady on the M&S foodhall till for my gay cowboys- its a vintage Seditionaries piece that I live in- My gran noticed it when I was back for Xmas and had a giggle...
The title I based on my everlasting love for Erin Wasson
I pray to this woman at night.... Beautiful... Im sure as my blog continues you will be enlightened on my slightly unhealthy crush on this lady...! Awkwards...

I am happy to say im off me and the boy- and the gay cowboys are off to get pizza-
Take it easy people

Dead Girl...

Sorry realise the title for this post was rather morbid but it is dedicated to my Dead Girl patch I picked up some time ago- thought I would post my practical going out outfit- the jackets DIY- it took the same time as half a hollyoaks omnibus to stitch the cross- collar and studs... I think I was rushing it though cz I dont like Hollyoaks...
Everything is second hand- funky fresh n that...
The amount of layers I have on makes me look like a bloke from behind but its just something I accept when going out in Scotland... Brrrrrrrrr
Enjoy your evening wherever you may be...

Acid...

Hey guys- the weekend is here so I thought I would celebrate by dressing like a sorbet explosion!!!
Even if I will be sourcing cotton all day- no rest ey?!
I have safely downed enough caffeine to be ready for the outside world...
Until next time people...

one thing about me- I love Flamingos- i dont know if thats a creepy thing to admit to but, I know this is not your typical Flamingo Land Flamingo but I dont think All Saints do pink.... or red....... or any colour for that matter but I am still very much in love...
I had to stop myself going all out anad getting the trousers...
which are equally as lush but there is no way I am cool enough to rock a Flamingo Tux.....error.....
I am guna do it up to the top button and slick my hair so I look like a 12 year old boy....
Oh Yeah...
Oh dear the sirens are going outside wonder what tonights mishaps will be....
I will have a new look for you guys tomorrow- may not be as good as a flamingo tux though....
Trippy
Much Love

Whiplash Trash...

This is what I wore today- I had to give myself a double take- lookin slightly like a crazy person me thinks?

I made this blouse from a HUGGEEEEE dress I found in a vintage store I used to work in... the top is mohair- which I love but its super itchy :-S

Weather is suprisingly nice for Edinburgh today I have just bought lots of tulips which make me smile... tulips and a new patchouli candle- yum yum yum...
The house smells like Boogie Nights... wowzaaaa

Hope you all had a fabulous Tuesday

Hey Bonita, Glad to meet ya...

So iv just got in from work and I am BEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTT.....
hence this like 1990's updo im sporting... error...
Im loving the clashing trend with the rest of the world as it gives you a glorified reason for literally wearing anything with anything?
I also love Christopher Kane this man is gospel to me everything he does I would literally sell myself for... see below and you will understand my pain...


S-H-O-O-T   M-E.....
so very very nice.... its all about the colour for me- I groom ebay like a creepshow waiting for some Kane bargains... no such luck fraid, allthough his affordable topshop pieces are also divine- you see this man is perfect!!
It makes me want to go out and buy 50 scratch cards...
OK enough self pity- time to watch The Walking Dead- my friend is trying to convince me it is as good as 24 but Jack Bauer is my man, well he and Christopher Kane- I think we would be all very happy together..

Peace

Wallflower Perks...

I dont like Sundays...
therefore explaining my miserable face! I used to work in a second hand book store when I was in high school and here I read a book by Stephen Chbosky called Perks of being a Wallflower- Im sure you will of heard of it, Sunday is my wallflower day for sure!
I do love my new Realitee T from Topshop...
I feel like Austin Powers when I wear this.... I am also very tempted to buy this number from Topshop..
I love everything about it... yes you have made up my mind I will order it online!
OK my boys watching The Antiques Roadshow and I am concerned...
Sundays man dont like em...

Throat...


Thought I would share a cheeky night shot before I go out for a meal with my boy...
He cut my shoes of in the first pic so had to put the second not so flattering shot in- I will be selling this Topshop Boutique dress- so contact me if you are interested. I love it so but have no room anymore!
*SOBS*
Bought this turban yesterday in the Urban Outfitters sale- no good in the wind but such a steal...

I will be working all night on sourcing printers so my look tomorrow will be rather bong eyed....

Booooo


I like across from a crazy night club so im sure I will be entertained all evening..

Lots of love

Nude...



This was yesterdays look- I got my sister to take the shots- still waiting for my new camera to arrive so apologies for the poor quality. I got this t from H&M and stitched the word NUDE down the side-

The coat was a total steal- its mohair from last years Topshop sale, it was one of those you find in a ball on the floor thats been trodden on to death but you still want to mother it.
Working on some Titian prints today- hopefully when I grow some balls I shall upload my first collection.

Got a lot of inspiration to share I would love any feedback.

Happy Saturday.

Lots of love from me, Jack Bauer and the small terrified dog

Red Lights Disco Dance

Been working on some prints that feature red light zones and Billy Idol lyrics....
My personal take on this can be seen in the outfits below- I tried so hard to find a T shirt with the word SEX across the chest- much harder than I thought, I couldnt be bothered to do one myself therefore trawled through millions of Sex Pistols and "Sex Drugs and Sausage Rolls" T's on Ebay until I spotted this one which I adore.
I wore it back home in Newcastle (boo hoo I miss you) on a night out. My other outfit was what I wore to work today- most of which I made myself totally amateur...
amateur chic perhaps?

Iv also posted a pic of my most recent purchase- 2 fab back patches guna get stiching these bad boys to whatever I can ASAP



Until next time...
