Gone a long time, baby

Holy crap it feels as if I have been away for a lifetime. I went to Great Escape and feel as if my mind has not really returned to reality - I had such an amazing time and miss my friends so much.

Anyway, here are shots from 3 seperate i-D eds, all of which I am 100% hot for. And those damn Mcqueen leggings! Oh when will they be in my life...

Lea Seydoux

She is cute!
I'm off to Brighton to go to Great Escape festival later in the week, so I shall wish you all a wonderful weekend now! I am looking forward to seeing all my friends, drinking some cocktails and watching some amaaaazing bands.

Lacy

I still love black lace, even if it has been floating around for quite a while.
I am living at my parents right now which has pretty much murdered my sense for inspiration but the one good thing about it is that my sister is living here too and has an insanely big wardrobe of mostly topshop dresses. I am going to thieve everything she owns; in particular a black lace long-sleeved cocktail dress, which I think will look excellent with a studded denim jacket.
HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND!

Beach Leather

Leather jacket on the beach? It should be a 'no' but Lara makes it a probable 'yes'. Depending on the temperature of the beach of course.

I usually hate that time of the year where magazines crack out their beachwear editorials, as they go two ways: boho hippy straw hats and seventies inspired prints on a beach in Goa; or South of France prostitute-style, with bathing suits that look like the one Borat wears in the film of the same name. But anyway, I like the idea of wearing a relatively simple bikini with a cut-off t shirt, or a sleeveless denim jacket.

Basically, this editorial gives me hope that maybe this year we might not be coerced by Cosmo into buying some cheap floaty beaded nylon kaftan under the guise that it is 'timeless', 'flattering' and will 'take you from beach to bar'. Ughhh.

May is the Day

Well well well, its May today. Scary stuff, this year is flying by. Word on the street is Britain will have a sunny summer, for the first time in about 4 years. I am excirted about this as it should coincide as my long-awaited move back to London-town. Where the streets are paved with gold! And litter/crap.

Have a good bank holiday weekend, let me know if you get up to anything exciting...I shall be eating sushi and reading economics books!
