Sugarhill Boutique's New collection and Christian Louboutin show

Before I start I would just like to say sorry that I haven't posted in a while, however for some reason it hasn't been letting me upload pictures? Anyway!

I am a very lucky girl as last tuesday my lovely friend Kirsti invited me to see Sugarhill Boutique's new A/W 12 collection. The new collection is absolutely gorgeous. The collection shows a range of garments from cute little dresses, skirts, coats, tops and even jumpsuits and playsuits. Personally I loved the little animal prints which Sugarhill Boutique have designed. There are many different prints of animals such as fox's, penguins, rabbits and there are even prints of wolves and bats which I think are perfect for an autumn collection especially as Halloween will be coming around soon. I found the whole collection lovely and  I think it will fit really well with autumn/winter season coming up. I can't decide which is my favourite piece as I find it all beautiful and exquiste. I will defiantly be purchasing a few of the items I saw that day! :) 

Check out Sugarhill Boutique here

I even got a lovely gift bag which had a LookBook catalogue of the whole new a/w collection, a gorgeous scarf/sarong and a lovely turquoise bracelet. 

After visiting Sugarhill Boutique my friend Kirsti and I went onto the underground and stopped off at the Design Museum, where the Christian Louboutin exhibition was showing. It was amazing I loved every shoe. I wasn't allowed to take photos so I havent got many photos to show but the exhibition is well worth seeing :). 

Loved these ballet inspired shoes 

If you drop by my blog I would love to here any of your lovely comments you many have ! :)

Chain Headband

Good evening, today the sun was out a bit finally which makes a change from all this bad weather we've been having. I thought tonight I would upload some photos of a new headband which I got a few weeks ago when the weather was really hot ! I admit the photos I have taking are not the best of me but I was in a bit of a hurry to take them. I love my new chain headband I think it looks very oriental which makes me love it even more :) ! I am fan of the floral ones however I don't think they suit me as much. I feel the chain one suits my style a bit more :).  I got the headband for only £2 from Dorothy Perkins. 

 Chain Headband is from Dorothy Perkins 

 I got the crop top from New Look in the sale a few weeks ago. 

I went a bit colourful on the eyes by mixing pink and green with a black gel liner 

Eyeshadow: Purple and Pink from a Rimmel eye palette 

Liner on top: Maybelline Black Gel Liner 

Liner on bottom: Kohl pencil by Barrym green 21 

Mascara: Thick and Fast Black

H&M to collaborate with Maison Martin Margiela?

 Hello my little fashionistas I have some exciting news. When exploring the web today I came across an article about how H&M is collaborating with Maison Martin Margiela this time to create a collection. However from the article it has not defiantly been confirmed! 

Below I have added a few images of garments from past collection from Maison Martin Margiela. From looking at these I am very excited to see what will be created. 

 Hmmmm.... I wonder was will be created for H&M.

A few years back Maison Martin Margiela teamed with Damiani to create a 14 piece jewellery collection. I think that the collection was beautiful. The jewellery was big and junky and would stick out and make a statement when worn. 

I am keeping my fingers crossed that Maison Martin Margiela will be doing a collection with H&M.

DIY Headband Tutorial Inspired by D&G

I had this old black velvet headband lying around so I decided to customise it a few weeks ago.  I was really pleased with how it turned out.  So decided I  would post up a little DIY tutorial on how I did it. I got my inspiration to make the hair band from Dolce and Gabbana's headbands (picture at the end). 

You will need a hairband, superglue/fabric glue, cottonwood bud, scissors and some cart bits I've used an old broken pearl necklace and to add a bit of gold I used a southern comfort necklace which I got from a club one night lol :). 

 I cut the string between the beads to get one individual beads. I then played around what sort of pattern I wanted to along my headband. 

 I then got the glue and for a more accurate and easier application of the glue I used a cotton wool stick to apply the glue onto each of the beads. 

 I kept going until the band was covered in beads from one end to the other. 

 I decided to add a few gems to mine at the end to make it appear more full and to make it a bit more glamorous. I really like how the D&G one has been cover with little gems and charms. I also love the black, gold and pearl combination. 

D&G Headband 

I will hopefully have a post of my headband with an outfit very soon, so stay tuned. I would love to hear your comments and thoughts of what you thought of my DIY tutorial. While the summer is hear have a go !

WSA Graduate Fashion Show Truman Backstage Part 2

Here are some more photos of backstage at WSA Graduate Fashion Show in London on Monday 28th May 2012. 

Getting ready 

 Cute little handbag. This was part of Amanda Thompson's Collection.

Amanda Thompsons Collection was very vintage inspired, old traditions. A lot of lace was used with big embroidered prints. The collection reminded my of the countryside on a hot summary day. 

 Amanda Thompson had made cute little hats to go with her garments. The hats were decorated using flowers and also vintage gloves which had been shrunken. (will try and find a photo of this) 

 Garments from Xiaoge Xue collection 

 Xiao Dan Yang Collection 

I really Loved this one with the structured jackets and mosaic print 

 Glitter Shoes to go with Amanda Thompson Collection 

 Japanses/Ballet Style shoes to go with Kayleigh Horn's Collection 

Me and my model Petra who I helped dress

Hope you enjoyed it. Ill see how the other photos I took came out to post up !

On Monday 28th May 2012 Winchester School of Art third year graduates showcased their collections at the Truman Brewery Show up in London ( Brick Lane). I have taken loads of pictures, too many in fact and it has taking me a long time to pick and choose which ones to use. The pictures below are of the models getting their hair and make up done. 

Make up by Juliana Sergot

 I want a mirror like this when doing my make up and hair. 

 Hair by Jonny Engstorm and Guy Kremer team for L'Oreal Preofessional 

The Catwalk Stage at Truman Brewery

Hopefully next post will show bits and pieces of the third year collections.

4) You ignite all the colours inside my heart

Denim Jacket : New Look

Black top : Tescos

Body chain: Topshop

Ring: New Look

Shoes: Newlook

Printed Leggings: Primark

Bought a new gold body chain the other day half price from topshop and decided to try out it yesterday for uni. I LOVE IT. It really makes a dull plain boring top look more interesting. I paired which some printed leggings, to that the chains on the necklace would pick ouy the chain print on the leggings. I went for a black top becasue I love black and gold togther. as I think it looks very Eygption. This inspired my make up by putting two black flicks at the side of my eyes.

Hope you like it.
