ALEXANDRA


Treated myself to these ALEXANDRA studded cut out booties from Topshop the other week. I wish I could say I've never had them off, but in all honesty my feet have been cosied up in biker boots and fluffy socks thanks to this increasingly chilly weather. 

I can't believe it's almost November, where has the time went?! Dare I say it but Christmas time will be here before we know it along with a ridiculous amount of course work hand-in's for me to look forward to. Hopefully Santa see's all my hard work and slips some extra presents my way.

Pierced Knitwear


If your looking for a way to jazz up your knitwear then look no further than your jewellery box. I got the idea after seeing a little 'IRO' number with pierced detail in Urban Outfitters, however the price tag was a  little steep for my student budget so thought I'd do a little DIY job myself. It's no 'IRO' but it'll do for me.

Dream on


The first thing I'd buy if I had £1,125 would be these MQUEEN Ostrich platform pumps.

One can dream.

Scott Campbell






I first came across the work of Scott Campbell when my boyfriend was getting tattoo'd at his studio in Brooklyn in September. This is the kind of art that I adore, the kind that is simply out of the ordinary and leaves you completely in awe.

Campbell creates these mind blowing pieces by using lasers to cut sheets and stacks of U.S one dollar bills. The piece above, a two foot plus cube with a skull inside, titled Pièce de Résistance, was crafted from $11, 000 worth of U.S currency and is now worth $50, 000.

WOW.

Isabel Marant






A blogger favourite and a terribly predictable post but there's certainly a reason for it. 

Isabel Marant S/S 12 RTW, Paris Fashion Week.

Yet another flawless collection that I'll most definitely be trying to imitate on a student budget when the sun decides to shine again.

C is for...







CHANEL, what else?! A few of my favourite looks from the S/S 12 RTW collection. 80 outfits were sent down the glossy white, under-the-sea spectacle. I mean, who would expect anything less? To top it all off, if that's even possible, Florence Welch performed her particularly fitting single "What the Water Gave Me". EPIC. Obviously.
