Fancy Dress




 As I said in my first post, my posts could be about anything, I was so impressed with the fancy dress I saw this weekend where my housemates and myself joined our our flatmate to celebrate her 21st in style. The theme was, 'anything beginning with the first letter of your name!' You can imagine all the ideas that came up... I will not mention some of the suggestions, all you need to know is that I attended as an Angel!


 Originally we were not sure how much effort everyone would go to, with fancy dress being a bit hit and miss, upon arrival we all soon realised that everyone had gone all out with outfits ranging from Hippies; to the pope; to Lisa Simpson; to an Eskimo. It was clear that everyone wanted to win the fancy dress competition!

 The party included music, food, a photo-booth, a bar (obviously the most important part!) and a donation box, as Ellie is doing the most amazing and scary thing of shaving her hair off for the Little Princess Trust. It was an amazing night of fundraising, celebrating, and helium balloons (it's amazing how much fun you can have with them!)



 If anyone is going to do fancy dress, this is how you should do it! Also if you wish to donate to support Ellie shaving off her hair here is the link to her page... https://www.shaveorstyle.org.uk/shavers/elizabeth-callear/

The Big Apple 🍎


 So this time last year I was having the time of my life visiting Snowy New York City for the first time, I had never been so excited to visit anywhere else in my life before! I went out there with our course for two days visiting fashion business such as WGSN, Calvin Klein flagship store, Macy's, Anthropology and Custom Fabric Flowers by M&S Schmalberg, in order to see how these business work and are run.



 We then had the rest of the week to explore the 'city that never sleeps', making the most of the shopping on fifth avenue, Grand Central Park, Top of the Rock, Empire State Building, Soho, 9/11 Memorial, Statue of Liberty, Hard Rock Cafe, Red Lobster and everything else New York has to offer!



 It was to date one of the most amazing places I have ever been, and I would definitely recommend it to be a place everyone should visit before they die. It has something to offer for everyone not just the fashion conscious lot of us, along with a lively and exciting atmosphere.











 Just make sure you visit it for yourself.

About Me

Hi,

 I am a 20 year old, farmers daughter (not your typical one) from just outside Coventry. I am a third year fashion marketing student at the University of Northampton and enjoying these last few months I have left as a student (a very scary thought for me).

 I have finally bitten the bullet and set up my own blog, its only taken me 3 years! I have a great love for fashion, socialising, travelling and showjumping, and would be your typical student: going out too much; living off ready meals; and buying too many clothes which I really cannot afford. Lets just say I am making the most out of my student years, along with getting a degree!

 I would love to talk about all the 'big plans' I have with my life, but at the moment that would be to travel, my first stops being Singapore, Bali, Lombok, Thailand and Malaysia in June. I would love to visit Australia, live in London for a few years and own a dog!

 I will be blogging about all sorts of things from fashion, everyday things that interest me to places I have visited and travelled to! I hope you all enjoy my blog!

 Peace. x
