So on Sunday three friends and myself went to go and the "WHO SHOT ROCK AND ROLL" exhibition at the Brooklyn museum.
The Exhibition was SO bloody brilliant, I would definitely recommend going!
I tried to take some pictures but we weren't supposed to so we were only able to take a few! :)

So these pictures were taken on the way back.... Hello Winter... it was freezing!!!

But I did buy this really cute Optrixx prism lense shown below for only $8.50... It's shaped into cool vintage camera shape. You can place it over the lense of your camera and it creates amazing prism shapes of whatever you are shooting at! I believe I will be using this more in the future.....

So last night was our "sock" party at our apt (we just had our floors cleaned so we decided to have a party on it of course!)   :)
Everyone had to wear socks So I wore these over the knee cut off tights with a mini skirt and this lace back tee shirt that I love.

These pictures were taken at the end of the night at about 4am... And my friends and I were messing around after everyone left!
Trying to do my breakdancing stills on my arse as you can see ...haha!!!

Oh and my roomate had bought me that massive tin of oil that you see there at the end, because it had my name on it so now it has actually become a part of the house because it actually looked kinda cool!!

Hope you all had a great weekend!!!

WOULDN'T TRADE YOU FOR THE WORLD!















































































Good evening to all who are in my time zone :)
No outfit post today but been so busy organizing our Christmas party tonight, so will share that with you in a later post :)

So I thought I would post more of my work for you guys to see.....

Now as some of you may know I'm a designer and this is a project I did for Free People (The more artsy crafty company of Urban Outfitters/Anthropologie)

I created this story book for them.....
My inspiration were taken from films such as Alice and Pan's Labrynth (love that film, have seen it no less than 20 times).
So my story book was based around a girl who went to a different land and went to visit the "design fairies" and visited their workrooms (which is where I displayed my designs/illustrations and fabric inspirations), was a big hit and I really enjoyed working on this project!

Have a great weekend people!!

Jewellery: various
Wetlook Leggings: TopShop (I have about 5 pairs of these)
Jumper: H&M


So another rainy day in New York....
Had a lovely evening staying home and chilling on the balcony with my roomates Mariana and Karlie!
We Used two different cameras for this shoot as you can tell.
I like the first ones better with the flash. But I also love the second set where Mari used the light from the balcony lamp giving it more of that vintage glow!

These fantastic wedges I bought from H&M have massive height and the chunkyness is amazing and I love the silhouette it gives against the oversize Jumper!

Hope everyone else had a fun evening!
