"Why don’t you have a room done up in every color green? This will take months, years, to collect, but it will be delightful—a melange of plants, green glass, green porcelains, and furniture covered in sad greens, gay greens, clear, faded, and poison greens
Diana Vreeland 

Watched the Diana Vreeland documentary in my fashion history class, can't get 70's interiors out of my mind.

Thursday Wish List

TROUSERS-MONKI (HERE), GRID JUMPER- TOPSHOP (HERE), LACE BRA- MONKI (HERE), LACE HIPSTER-MONKI (HERE)
After reading Monki's magazine i decided to take a look at their online shop, its so good! I'm constantly searching for the PERFECT pair of black skinny trousers, with little luck so far, and these might just be the pair! Annoyingly they only have XS in stock on the website, although its a good excuse to take a peek in the Oxford Street branch of the store, which looks amazing. The underwear, (so pretty!), is also from Monki. I don't usually wear sweatshirts but for £18 pounds in the sale its pretty cute, and we've all seen the S/S13 collections, monochrome is back! Which is absolutely fine by me seeing as its all i seem to wear.




SHOES-TOPSHOP (HERE)

These shoes are literally perfect, i spotted them on the Topshop website a few months back and have been debating buying them ever since. 
GHOSTWORLD- DANIEL CLOWES
Whenever shopping i literally quote this panel about 100 times, but these are the shoes! I have found a pair of normal black shoes, and why pay a million dollars (pounds) when you can pay thirty?

Magazine Haul


I LOVE YOU, LULA, 1883, MONKI & CLASH.
Last Friday my media analysis class were sent to London on a magazine treasure hunt. Needless to say i went over the top spending wise but oh my god was it worth it, out of the five pictured i have only ever bought Lula, (with little success i attempt to buy every issue), so felt it was time i branched out! One of my two favourite's have to be Clash, which is actually a music magazine although i was lucky enough to pick up last years fashion issue featuring a a huge piece on Meadham Kirchhoff! The article focuses on the S/S12 collection, (my favourite to date!) and below is Ed Meadham's Riot Grrl Playlist:


 My second favourite of the five is Monki, a sister publication to the fashion brand of the same name. The magazine has a DIY feel to it and although only features its own clothing, the publication doesn't appear as an advertisement tool, which is a nice change for consumer magazines. Eleanor Hardwick, rookie photographer,      
 curates a piece featuring young artists responses to their female icons, which is super cool! (See below)
