#waitingwaitingwaiting


so its been a week already since i arrived home from uni.  its insane how quickly time is going, i have 3 weeks left and will be going back before we know it.  as much as i am enjoying having my food cooked for me, my clothes washed etc, i miss uni so so so much!  i am suprisingly not enjoying having no work to do this holiday,  i am so wired to having a constant work load my brain doesn't function having a life and free time very well.  I've been doodling here and there but spent most of my time lusting over clothes that i cant buy :( sucks balls that! but i did treat myself with 25% ASOS earlier this week. who wouldn't..


with online shopping and other forms of media and TV advertising you can't help notice the huge hype over the 90's right now! lets face it The Big Reunion is everyones guilty pleasure, 5ive, Blue, Atomic Kitten, BEWITCHED!! I am loving the return of double denim and dungarees, definitely a true 90's kid me.



i've always had a bit of an obsession with floral prints, but im absolutely obsessing over these floral pants!  i think theyre totally gorge!  also the vintage denim culottes are the cutest trousers i have seen in ages,  there just so fun and now!  the Fashion Photography course were asked to find an image that they wish they had taken which they had to present and explain why.  i had never thought of looking at clothing and designers in this way, i think it really helps you appreciate who/what you want to be.


whilst lusting over all of these gorgeous clothes i treated myself to this gorgeous shirt..



i personally love the print in this and the colour is gorgeous, but im sure my friends will think differently!  im hoping it will come monday morning in time for me to go and see olly murs for the 6th time in concert Monday night.. fingers crossed!

Much Love

#Term as a Fashion Student at Falmouth

Second term at uni is coming to an end.  i cannot believe how quickly the term has gone, its insane!! so much has happened in 10 weeks! Denim Project, Research, Design, Make & Crit, Yoga Brief, Research, Design, Make & Crit, London Fashion Week, Collaborations with Fashion Photography, and House hunting for next year with my best friend!  its been insane, it really has.

Before starting uni everyone i spoke to about doing fashion design said how intense the course was and how fast paced everything was.  i have never heard such truer words spoke.  no matter how much someone tells you how intense it is, you can't ever prepare yourself enough.  there is never enough hours in the day to do everything, its usually the socialising that takes a side track unfortunately.  but i have found you are never ever bored!  its impossible.  we have just finished our 2nd major project of the term and found out we don't have an easter project, which came as a massive shock.  meaning 4 weeks of nothing.  in a weirdly nerdy way im kind of disappointed   i like being occupied i dont like doing nothing, but im sure i can find something to do :)



But for now im just going chill in my last few days of term and make the most of being in sunny Falmouth.  Maybe even pop to the beach tomorrow afternoon,  i definitely dont take enough advantage of being so near to the sea.  

Much Love
