Jean on top

Another post :)  I'm doing quite good at keeping it up so far.  Onto the subject...today I'm wearing a jean jacket I got in Goodwill.  The story goes along something like how I'd been looking for this type of jacket for what feels like ages.  An oversized jean jacket remeniscent of the late 80s early 90s and something that was not from the High Street Stores ( a bit too commercial ) and Goodwill had it *Thumbs Up* I absolutely adore it, so much that I couldn't even part with it after my little sister asked to have it :b

 I accessorised it with this necklace from the little market in Paris and a head wrap 

 

 

 The draped skirt is from M&S, worn with my Lacoste high tops

The boys and the girl

3 days ago, on Saturday, I went out with friends.  It was a much needed night out with nothing but a bunch of FABULOUS boys around me.  I seriously love living in London and being in good company.  Our night started in Soho and we ended up in Charing X by midnight.  Here's to the good times, xx.

Head On: An exhibition at John Prince's Street

Every now and then they change their exhibitions, and this one just made me want to jump in and take the manequin's place just so I can have a feel of these beautiful garments.

Makale's photos

My super adorable niece is the one who took these photos. She really likes taking the camera and messing about with it and I have to admit I love the photos :) Taken by her little self, they evoke nothing but love and those moments that just make me giggle when I reminisce. So here is a short story, by Makale. There once was a little girl who liked taking photos of anything she pointed the camera on First it was of her mother Then me while I was getting ready to head out Then again rushed to the bathroom, asking me what I was doing 'Just putting some make-up on' I replied Once I got in the bedroom, I took the camera from her and took a picture, she wasn't happy Then I told her I'd get her candy on my way back The end.

Leather

There was an exhibition at the London College of Fashion, JPS branch about leather. I was on my way to the library when I noticed it and found it so 'wicked'! Leather manipulated in such exotic forms, my kind of thing. Such beautiful works.

Back to London, from the holidays

Back to London, back to school and back to work. So pretty much back to reality and happy belated new year to us :) I celebrated my time with friends and family in cold, snowy Indiana and here's a random recap of my little cherished moments... Playing in the snow with my super dooper adorable niece A dinner then drinks affair on new year with Grant and Siri. Lovely characters. I laughed so hard that night, I cried. and we walked along the somewhat quiet streets of the city I also went to Ohio to see my besties I hadn't seeen in YEARS!!! I miss my girls so much!!! And my wonderful high school friends :) Karla, Dani, Franci and Dash ;) I swear, sometimes I wonder why I ever left Indiana. Catching up with them over a 'guess who' game. And then we headed to the Hookah Bar, WHAT A NIGHT! Great thing we're all over 21 these days Of course I had to cut my hair again Then I came back to London and moved again. More about that in the next post. xx
