Tattoo's....

So I've wanted to get a Tattoo for ages..... not like a big one, just a little one somewhere discreet of some wording. I'm not much of a fan of pictures really unless they really meant something to me, though I would like my favourite piece from my first collection tattoo'd on me somewhere, just the sketch, not all colour and stuff, since that would obviously mean a lot to me.

But I was just wondering what people thought of them? or have you got any that you regret? Also have there been any Tattoo's that you've seen and thought, I want that! Leave your reply in the comments!

Braided Shirt Reconstruction!

Had a good day, managed to do some work, started again as a bad day but it's gotten really good!

I braided a t-shirt which I've been meaning to do for a while since I saw this video on ThreadBanger.

So I created my own shirt, I don't think I did the cuts big enough which I think is why my braid has pulled my shirt in on itself a little, but I'm going to try again once I've tie-dyed a shirt white and a red color. I'm trying to harass my mum into doing that with me, but we're waiting on the weather really. But at least I managed to design a little bit without destroying the shirt, and I think it would look 

 really nice with a chain ran through as well, or
 something along those lines, and a really
 pretty jewel at the bottom where it finishes

offf.

I also went and did some painting for my portfolio for my work of a tulip, to reflect Dior's dresses that were based on Tulips. Since I think they were really well designed. Some times when designers base the items on nature they can either have really yucky colors or can loose the shape and style of the actual plant and not really have much of a connection to it's original form, but these managed to look beautiful and keep the shape. So I'm doing a design copy of that dress and some life drawing etc. and then I want to attempt my own dress that will be inspired from nature hopefully. A daffodil maybe or something like that. Flowers seem a nice one to do because they often have nice shapes or maybe a shell, one of those curved ones. They would be interesting to design from or some shape 

along those lines. Something with lots of color

though like Dior's has, perhaps with a little bit more of a punk rock edge, a few chains and studs? I've also been trying to get an idea together for my Interviews but nothing so far.

Music! Friends? Life! Fashion! Urban?

Currently loving the song Miami 2 Ibiza by Tinie Tempah and the Swedish House Mafia. They're such great artists! and Tinie Tempah is definitely staying at the top and growing strong. I've a feeling they're both definitely going to last more than 15  minutes which would be nice. I think we should be harsher on music, people who are only going to have 15 minutes of fame should be thrown out quicker. Too many people are called A listers when they really aren't and it's a shame since it's giving the music industry a bad name and it really is painful to listen too.

On the other side a bit more thoughtful. Friends? a friend recently had an incident where he needed his friends to stand by him, some he let leave to protect them, some ran and others stood by him, and when he came too, the people that should of been there weren't instead some of the ones that were on the opposing side were. So friends? People that stand by you're side through out anything? or ones that won't? Although I guess you need an occasion to actually test it. But just a thought for everyone, are you're friends who they think they are? I've had a lot of this recently, specially arguments with my parents over my friends. But sometimes the ones that are meant to be bad for you are the ones that will stand by you when you need it the most and if you ask me that's what friends are meant to do.

On the other side... Fashionnn! But I just though I'd give you something to ponder quickly.

On the Fashion front... I'm a bit bored. Very uninspired today, possibly cause I'm too tired. But hopefully I will think of something. I've got Cambridge next saturday so hopefully there will be something inspiring there. I have gotten into the idea of things that are more urban lately, a little bit "gangsta". Bit different to my normal stuff. But I'm just really waiting to get paid so that I can spend some money and get creating. I'm really looking into my own range of tops at the moment rather than at what other people are doing. I'm a little worried that I just copy what I see and that I'm not experiencing enough. So I'm really trying to get more experiences to draw on, so we'll see how that goes! 

I got my interview sorted for Coventry so that's good so far, but apart from that there's not much else to report on. So here's some stuff that I've drawn etc to show you or worn etc. You'll work it out! (: You just have to press play down the bottom to get it to go through everything!

12/11/10 on Prezi

And I'm back...

So I can't exactly remember when I updated this because it's me, and also cause I've been quite tired and a little ill, which I can't really afford to be. So I've got pictures of my art book to show you and I've what I wore today, though it's not very inventive cause I woke up late. Though I think I could currently sleep for days, but alas I've work tomorrow 9-6 and Sunday 10:30-4:30, which is a shame cause I do miss a good lie in.
But on the upside I've booked my driving theory for the 20th October, so I'm quite nervous about that and need to do some revision, as well as revision for everything else which is annoying. But least then that's out the way, and I'd better pass cause it cost me a bloody fortune.
But I'm also making a hat for my art class, but there'll be pictures of that up later cause it's really not finish yet... not really started either, but still! Positive is the key!
I've also had my night course on Monday which went amazingly! I absolutely love it, and definitely want to do it when I go to uni, I just need to improve my drawing skills which is a pain! But least now I know what I need to improve at and can just keep going and trying, I think I'll just print some pictures off and stick them in my book and keep trying from there. After all, practice does make perfect!  But anyway here's what I wore today, and also the pictures from my art book.

I also seriously need a day off! I'm so tired! I spent Monday working, which is a pain. I seriously need sleep which is a shame that I can't. I'm also meant to be booking my gym induction for Tuesday afternoon, and I'm meant to go swimming next week, but I might skip the gym induction since it's not booked and just go swimming, and wait for the induction till I get paid, since I'll hopefully get paid lots cause of being paid 2 months wages from Debenhams and 1 from JJB, which is good cause I've seen some expensive shoes that I LOVE! and have now decided I NEED! & I was gonna show you a picture of the shoes but of course I can't find it.
