#New Designers, London

so after my final term as a first year Fashion Design Student at Falmouth University, ive had questions asked which i couldn't answer and i thought it was time to find out!  i've been seriously thinking about my future and what i would like to do after University!  There are so many options to think about.  

I took a trip up to New Designers Graduate Show in London last week,  it was crazily inspiring and amazing to see current graduates work from all over the country displayed for visitors to view.  I've noticed since starting uni and having 2 best friend who study Textlie Design that i am definately drawn to print.  As well as my love for Mary Katrantzou and Peter Pilotto.  

One of the designers thats display really caught my attention was Kerry Anne Long. Her Psychedelic Geometric Concept was really something different.  Looking origami and and fabric manipulation to inspire her project and prints one of her final garments was really very beautiful.

Bank Holiday!

Primark Buys, Joined the iPhone massive!, Morning Face, Favourite Dinner, my baba, Textiles Exam, Lemon Cake!, Textiles Final Pieces, Fresh Bedding, my other baby, New Phone Cases, St. Fagans for tea!, Favourite BarryM, Pizza Express, Afternoon in the Bay!

So Basically i've been super distant from the whole blogging scene for a couple of weeks i felt we were all in need of a catch up!! i had an amazing shop last sunday, with a £60 Primark holiday shop all done and dusted! && I finally joined the iPhone crew last sunday, literally why did i not do this before!!  as you can probably tell, Instagram is absolutely my best friend at the moment and also making me insanely vain! :$ not so good! i've been snowed under with deadlines and exam prep and exam these past 2 weeks, but knowing that my deadline is tomorrow and i only have sampling left to do is a huge weight off my shoulders and by the end of this week i should be enjoying the start of my summer holidays.. alone! :(  im the only one out of my friendship group to do Art & Textiles for A-levels so they all have written exams coming up, all i can say is i have no excuse not to get my body into shape for holidays!!  i recieved a lush little invitation off my Welsh Bacc teacher earlier this week inviting out whole class to St. Fagans for afternoon tea next monday, awww im so excited!!  and yesterday i had a lovely afternoon with my daddy in Cardiff Bay, with a Pizza Express for tea!! yummmy!


how have all you guys been ? snowed under with revision? i literally don't envy you one bit!!

ummm.. hi guys!!

lit' my absence this past two weeks is an actual piss take! im so sorry guys, but my exams are overrrrrr :)  result! schools not quite finished a few more compulsory days and then some catch up days, but then my days as a St. Cenydd student are overrr!:) yayerrr. seems as most of my post recently have been me moaning about how much work i have to do and so forth i thought i'd share with you my final textile/fashion pieces of the year!

so my coursework was all inspired by weather and its affects, and my exam piece was inspired by sweet shops and candy :)  im super pleased with them both! and fingers crossed they get me the grades that i want!  i actually cant believe my time in school officially finishes tomorrow! i don't weather to be happy or sad, oh well i now have plenty of time on my hands making my teachers thankyou presents, awww!

Much Love

A-level take-over..

so this last week my life has been totally taken over by stitching, beading and draping! finally im starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel with only zip needing to be fitted tomorrow, and I will never have to look at this dress ever again!!  im so proud of it but so sick of it at the same time.  but nevertheless, the end of this project means the near start of my next project!  hopefully my blogging will pick back up once my projects finally out of my hands :)

Much Love
