I Want Shoes! Always!

So it's my 18th birthday on 7th April and I've started looking for the birthday presents! So Here's another I want post! This one is decidedly biased to shoes, but we can't help what we love! Hope you enjoy. What's your favourite items? Any brands that you couldn't live without?!

Inspiration

I guess vaguely like this, but in Yellow,
different check and different chains. But you get the Vague idea.
I finally have my inspiration for my dress for my interview! and now I'm raring to go! I found this gorgeous yellow lumberjack type material with grey sort of check in with it, and so I've based my dress on that material and built up around it! It's going to be sort of a punk rock lumberjack! with lots of antique silver chains with little crosses and stuff on, with a glamorous edge as well! I've still got to draw it but it's all up there in my head for definite! I've been driving my mum mad with the idea, and I'm going to start on the beginning pages today after lesson!
I've just got to sort out the dress, and then I'm going to start on the shirt! I'm really quite excited for it! But I'll do a mock drawing of it today and post that so you can all give me a little bit of feed back on it! But as I keep saying, I'm really excited about it! Which is quite good as the other one I think would of been really difficult to actually do but this one does look a little easier to actually put in to practice. I'm also really looking forward to styling it as well! My friend, loves styling too, so I think between us we can get some amazing shots of it! 
I'm also almost done on my night course, last week next monday, and I'm getting really excited! I'm just doing a simple grey a-line skirt, but I think I've enough material to do it again, so I might make another once the course is finished and I might add some little jewels and stuff on to it and make it a little bit more glam! I'm really glad I took up the night course since I really do enjoy it, and I'm looking forward to enrolling in the next one! I've also seen some of the finished articles at the college for the Fashion Design course, and I'm actually not minding so much if I have to go and do a foundation year there or something, since the work they produced their is Uni quality or just below I think and the pictures etc. do look really good.

News Flash! Kate Moss to leave Topshop!

Kate Moss's last collection!
I saw this today on a magazine, and investigated! Surely this isn't the beginning of the end for Kate Moss? I do hope not! I do quite adore her!
According to sources Kate Moss is to be given the boot by Sir Philip. Rumors are that Chloe Green will be replacing her, due to Moss's energy and enthusiasm for the collection going, and thus the collection comes out twice a year instead of 6 times a year as it previously did as her team runs out of idea's for new clothing and the luster for them are gone as they are unimaginative and highly price and apparently not that well made. I think this will be a sad day since I've always found something I like in the collection but couldn't afford. However since this will be the last collection I will be buying something to remember our darling Kate by. 
I do look forward to however Chloe Green taking over, I think it will be interesting to see how she will be perceived as Sir Philip's daughter and how her design skills really will contend. She does so far seem a driven young lady who knows what she wants. Will Topshop loose the new clientele that it had gained? And will his daughters collection be as good as daddy wants?
 Pictures from Kate's last collection. Have her designs become less dramatic compared to the Drama that we are used to, that comes with the British rock styled model? or will we follow Kate no matter where she goes? I certainly hope that someone allows her to carry on designing since I always thought that they were a little different and very much her own style which people can't help but adore. I know that Chloe has a lot to prove though, after having Kate design for Topshop.

The Pretty Reckless!!!



So I Loveeeeeee! The Pretty Reckless! the one with Taylor Momsen in, from gossip girl, she plays jenny humphrey (which I am also in love with) and I’ve tried using Limewire to download the songs for free only to get the live ones, well most of them anyway. So I’ve decided to wait till the album comes out, but don’t you hate that when you have to wait ><
So I just checked HMV again, after going into the official forum for TPR and now they have it under “coming soon” which is brilliant! since before they didn’t have it on there at all!
I also yesterday found the official Vevo chanel for them, and they had a song on their that I didn’t know! so I downloaded it, and it’s really good. But I’m going to put the music video below cause I think it’s a really good one, reminded me of one Evanescence did ages ago. It’s pretty good so I recommend it indefinetly!


She always has really nice hair, has anyone figured out how to get their hair wavy like that? It’d be really cool if someone could tell me, and I’d make a Youtube Video and put it up here for those who are more visual learners. She always has nice shoes too! I definitely this autumn want some shoes like hers, definitely.

They always dress her really well in Gossip Girl, it’s a nice change to see her dressed up a little more clothes wise. And I Loved the shoes they put on her in this picture and the coat, she looks really snug and warm but still has her edgy style mixed in with what they’ve given her, which is nice too, that they would keep her edginess. I can’t wait for Gossip Girl to come back on,I’m afraid when it does there will be lots of posts about it!
