Jak, Jil and Jason - a short film

 

Stills from an amazing film collab by Tommy Ton and Jason Wu. Go watch :)

Sometimes we get so caught up in the fashion, in the clothes coming down the runway, that we forget the models. We forget all the work they put in, and most of all,when you see them walking towards you, so orderly and the same, we forget they are human too. They're real people, many of them teenagers, not robots.

And they're just as crazy as the rest of us ^^

I take no credit for anything in this blog post, except for the words...

Feeling Sick

Of seeing me post pictures of Olivia? Then again, if you're sick of them, you're gonna be sick of pictures of my art!

I'm a noob at fashion photography, and I wish I had all the cool lighting equipment to make the pictures look pretty, but really it's just a bit of fun, which I like to spam you with :D

Success!

I did it. I read Molly Moon (books 1 and 2) and I have finished the other one I was reading :) It turned out really nicely, though one of the nicer guys went a bit crazy :( And lots of people died (not in Molly Moon. Na, in The Magician's Apprentice)

In other news, I have finished my Mock art thingymabob, so I think you should have a look ^^

It was a boring little ivory underdress, with some coloured "cutouts" and a nice yellow zip. The teacher said it didn't fit the theme "Layers" enough, so I've added some lovely bias voile and a lace sort of waistcoat. Worn with bare feet, and my £5 (down from £16) Peacocks heels. They are so comfy, and a lovely sturdy heel.
The final picture is just to show you the makeup - I was going for an elf-fairy feel, thus freckles, wild hair and blue/green eyes (too subtle though!)

Let it... Rain???

I have cravings.
That makes it sound like I'm pregnant, or really want to eat. But no. My craving are for a book.
I was reading a book. I nice book, one I've never read before, interesting, I like the others by the author. But I had a craving.
For Molly Moon.
So I have spent the best part of 3 hours fulfilling this craving. I am going to continue in a moment.

tailored cropped trousers, long knit cardi, smocked bustier, PVC hooded cape
hideous shoes, broing socks, lazy armwarmers, umbrella

fluffy lined toggle winter jacket - this was going to be navy, but I didn't own a navy pen at the time. Imagine it mainly dark rich blue, with the circles being white blobs, the shoulders the same colour. And the fur ivory white
lined snow boots, thigh high socks

Let Me Know, Let Me Go

I've rather taken to giving up on blog titles, so if you read something completely random, don't worry about it!

Now, I am so far behind on these that I'm afraid to say I'm going to spam. Or skip a few. But probably spam. So prepare yourself for lots of posts this few weeks, sorry!

design - halterneck jumpsuit, strapless bikini
worn with - gladiator heels, bangle, painted wood necklace, pink diamond and crystal ring

Proud of this one :B 
design - argyle cropped knit jumper, crossover high waisted skirt with suspenders
worn with - brown net stockings and suspenders, quiver of bows, arrow, white suede stiletto boots

Thank you for looking, please feel free to insult any parts you dislike (I dislike the first one because it's not at all Noughts and Crosses related. And her wig looks awful!)

Happy New Year

Virtual Champagne, toasting to a year yet to pass. It may be good, it may be bad, it may be absolutely terrible, or completely amazing.
Whatever way your New Year has started (hungover), whatever way your last one ended (drunk), whatever way you plan to carry on (come on, New Year's Resolutions!) I wish you the best, and I know that whoever you are, wherever you are, if you try your best this year, you can get what you want (unless it's a private jet. That might take a few years...).

So, what's your New Year's Resolution? And how long will you keep it up?
Mine is to learn 5 new Japanese Kanji a day, draw a new design EVERY day (I have missed SO many. When the 1 year anniversary comes, I hope to have at least 26 weeks - half a year :S ) and to cook more. Really.

So, best of luck, and most of all, Keep Smiling :D
