Absence. London Fashion Weekend


so i returned to ikea on monday as i called them up and they said someone had handed in a iphone, i went all the way to croydon, and they cannot find it. pissed.
i hate ikea now, we can no longer be friends.

On tuesday i went to see oscario which was nice, i stole his potato wedges :D

On wednesday i returned to ikea to have a shout.. succeeded in nothing, they are now trying to deny a iphone was ever handed in, dickheads. i bet they ripped the page out because they realised i could sue xD i would know, the papa is a lawyer.
so, decided to drown my sorrows again dispite school the next day.ended up on bus stop tops again, and got told to get down by
♥ PC CHAN!


Down to real business:
London Fashion Weekend *dies*
Cosmopolitan, thank you thank you thank you ^.^ Bolle got us those meetings, we then returned in half term and they gave us thessse.
LOL
So the event was held at Somerset House, it started at 5pm but we were late coz emily had work. we got chatted up by some swamy guys while we were at the station,they were from new york or something, saying they had heard that 'coventry garden' (ahaha fools its covent garden) was where lots of bars and clubs were, was it true and did we want to join them..we told them we were on a school trip! that didnt stop them from telling us 'have a good school trip, ladies' at victoria.
we got the circle and district line to temple, where we got lost and didnt have a clue where somerset house was. also it was pouring down, and when we were standing right outside it we were still like.. errr where is it?? we're so ditzy sometimes. so when we finally got there, there was a massive tent in the courtyard of somerset house. i felt underdressed, i should have worn heels rather than my mums old tatty leather boots, but i think sophie and emily were more underdressed than me. so it was great, we arrived and i felt so out of place, and also trampy as we were soaked..
oh dear.. but i am wearing my current favorite fashion item , my velvet leggings.
So anyway. in the tent was a bar with all these important looking people sipping champagne and wearing extravagant hats. we wanted to get some champagne, but at a fiver a glass we gave it a miss. was so tempting to drink abandonned glasses that were around the tent.. but we all resisted, we didnt want to look even more out of place.
we looked round the tent, the stalls were pretty cool, nice designer jewellry and wowza purses and stuff. but things got better when we went into
the buildings.
There were rooms with racks full of designer clothes :D
there were some designers i had heard of, like Vivenne Westwood and Dolce and Gabanna.. etc etc it was so sick!
and then loads of little unknown (well unknown to me) designers, t
hat were also affordable :)
i almost bought a gold neclace with a skull on it from one of the designer je
wellry stalls, to replace my ceramic skull neclace that i lost and used to wear everyday. it was £30 though, glad i didnt, i got better stuff.


yeeahh, cool business cards and stuff :)
we got spending :) i bought the most amazing sequin blazer, in the style of a biker jacket. i love love love it :) it was by 'saints & sinners'
then i bought two t-shirts from 'Buddist Punk', which were pretty cheap too
and a leather purse from 'Billy Bags'
ok, im tired now and bored of writing.
peace out losers.

Half term

i realise that i havnt uploaded anything in a while, i couldnt be bothered. sorry. ( i will make up for it now though!) Halft term was a good, bad, and terrible week. i got drunk every day from friday the 12th to saturday the 20th. good times :)

***ok, something i wrote on my DA blog.


"it was half term last week, and i have much to upload but i lost my iphone when i was drunk in ikea and its pretty lame and shallow of me but everytime i tryed to start writing a blog or edit a photo or something i couldn't be bothered.it made me feel too depressed and unconnected to the world.. dont lose iphones. there like your life.. to much stuff has been going on. so brief overview of half term: friday 12th:me and my friend dressed up retro and went to a modern cafe, fun times. then went back to his and proceeded to get drunk, before some of my friends had finished school evern :/ thebn we went to a playpark and i had to climb a longting thingy. decided that it would be an awsome place to take drugs but he doesnt. not yet. told him i would corrupt him though. dispite he is 2 years older than me. then we were going to see hairspray as my school was doing a production but i had photocopied the tickets and people were being turned away so we didnt bother trying. ended at oscars which was rather 'chill'. saturday 13th:website work!woo. then we went sophs, i was bouncing off the walls. i found it halirous how some were slumped on a bed asking how long they were going to be drunk for, i just assured them that it would be ok in the morning. couldnt sleep till 5am. was buzzing the next day also.. sunday 14:went round sainsburys with the padres! valentines day..oscar cooked me pizza, had bottle of wine, watched the boat that rocked.i hate valentines but i was impressed. monday: didnt get up till about 2pm.then had to drag my self home and go ikea. thhat was interesting. i explianed bout iphone. then after realising i had lost it i went on a complete bender. ended up on the top of a bus stop at 4am dancing, trying to go on a booze run. had major dmcs with my friend too.

tuesday: realisation of day before, had an interview, that i turned up late to, slightly drunk/hungover. was a complete maze to get into the building and the guy didnt seem too impressed.then zara came over as it was shrove tuesday and we made some pancakes, then went to rorys basement rave, his basement was so sick!
we just managed to catch the last bus home. wednesday: had a meeting with cosmopolitan :D they gave us free tickets to london fashion weekend!!then i had lunch with my dad in his office, went home, watched 21, and ended up at a party in sevenoaks. got a bit drunk.. effy dancing and all. we cotched in the bathroom the whole night as the party was quite dry, listening to the only 2 songs on my shitty phone. i was standing on the bathroom sink dancing. good times. thursday: got back from sevenoaks like 11am, was so tired. needed coffee bad. then went james house, got drunk, told him i used to think he was a loser but hes a nice person.. aha. raving at the bus stop and drunken phone calls to people. friday:cotch at oscars with mila and george, it waas chill but fun. i bare facebook raped mila which was fun once she and george had left.fell asleep and ended up getting home at 4am. saturday: got woken up by a fone call from an upset friend, managed to comfort her. good that she called me or i wouldnt have got up at all. went to A's and watched pulp fiction and made pancakes. evening returned to alexs after a lifetime to celebrate harrys birthday. sunday: 'worked' "

so i have another iphone, am feeling a little better now. mucho things have happened very recently.
and sorry, lack of fashion in this blog. :) next one in due course, fashion WEEEk

The most fun you can have without taking your clothes off..

YAY PEOPLE!!! :))
its so encouraging that people, even if just a small few are looking at this blog. yay :)
so the valentines themed photoshoot went well, it was good beacause i thought people would be reluctant to join in, but everyone there got pretty entusiastic after a strongbow or two..;) it was a fun day. but my managing director wasn't so happy, coz the valentines theme bit didn't work out so well. you cant do valentines theme with teenagers, they hate it. its just a day to get drunk and do regretable things with the opposite sex, or same, depending on your sexual orientation and how drunk you are xD. or unless your one of those homely teens who sets up camp at the first chance. (i am kind of neither.) woops, allow me going off the subject. but MD will just have to grin and be ar it. i think i will call the shoot 'the most fun you can have without taking your clothes off' which of course wasnt true in the slightest! preview: not the best photo, but gotta keep the good ones exclusive for the webmag :)

hehehe webmag. i have such amazing news about it. On friday we bunked school to go on these two business meetings, first one we had to travel out of london to this lame-ish place, it was kinda interesting but was a bit crap. then we had to go back to central london, we went to this proper magazine company, offices off oxford street, im not guna say which but basically the are the most popular magazine aparantly (according to them..) sold in 51 countries. this place was so much more promising than the first, they told us about there websites, stuff we should include, and then we told them about our project. THEY THEN OFFERED US A PARTNERSHIP DEAL. this is basically the best news ever. i guess this isnt making much sense right now but i cant be bothered to explain and i have hw to do :(

so, i said i would start blogging about fashion, so here goes.
Has anyone heard of Louise Gray?

i found her whilst browsing style.com trying to decide what designer i am going to create a diffusion line for my textiles project. i havn'd decided on which designer yet -.-
shes scottish, she started as a textiles designer. And her RTW 2010 spring collection i think is awsome! i am going to try and recreate my own version of this cut out t-shirt.

ahh, that was brief on fashion.. larger on the rest, i have more to say but homework calls..
oh yes, the stop smoking thing lasted till friday..FAIL TIME :)
