Weekly Inspiration

Hey Dolls,
Welcome to a new segment I am going to do every week. Its basically things that inspired me during the week. Ever heard about writing down little thing that make you happy? Well this post is sort of like that :)
This week has been super busy for me when it came to college (So many assignments) So theses are the little things that got me though it...

This quote kinda gave me a boast when I was in the library that and I watched an unhealthy amount of Harry Potter this week, But hey whose judging ;) Staying on the subject of Harry Potter I also may have purchased this from Blackmilk Cant wait to wear it! Yeah I'm house Slytherin, Get over it!

The Lady of Shalott -John William Waterhouse

This is my favourite painting. I just love it probably because The Lady of Shalott is my favourite poem( English nerd coming out) its by Alfred Lord Tennyson. You can read it here if you feel like it :) I was studying it again this week for the hundredth time it feels like.

Another Sneaky Purchase I planing to buy this evening if I finish my studies (Yes I bribe myself to study, trust me its the only way) its from River Island.

Band I've on repeat is HAIM, unreal band with such a different sound.. LOVE

Give them a Listen

Thats really all for this week

Medieval Inspired Fashion

Evening dolls,
As some of ye may know I am an English and History student. I love the idea of monarchy's I love the fashion the jewels the general whole Idea of the fashion back then. I thought I would do a post on how the medieval monarchy and clerical styles has crept into some of the major designers works.
First off is Alexander McQueen I mean I die over this collection! I would wear pretty much everything in this collection it was love at first sight.
This collection is so amazing its just oozes history inspired. In my opinion most of the garments look like it was very clerical inspired with some having the Old Queen type look. Here is some of the collection that I think best represent this type of look.

Next on y list is Dolce & Gabbanas collection uggh its amazing. It is just like what you want to wear all the time. The whole collection just works with old style queens and the new 'modern' queen. The garments themselves are like a piece of Art. just check some of the best of the collection

You can also check out the the whole Winter 2014 collection Here

I just love the head wear and jewellery as well of this collection.

the head wear I mean I die so amazing. I wish I could wear a crown if I could afford to buy D&G!

The whole lot of it is just like a piece of artwork from the 16th century! Get up close with the designs with there latest YouTube videyyo here

that's all I have to say really, until next time,

1920s Fashion

Hi Dolls,
So I have recently rediscovered my love for 1920s fashion, I mean I just want to dress as a flapper all the time. I die over the head pieces that is incorporated into the fashion. Can I please just dress like that all the time? My obsession kinda started when I started watching Downton abbey. The fashion of these ladies is something else. Just look at how stunning they look, gloves, tiaras & sequins what more could you ask for ?

Also I just recently watched the Great Gatsby with the girls and Oh my God why don't we have Parties like that any more is all I can say ? I currently wish my weekends entailed parting at Gatsbys, wearing a fabulous dress and sipping on the best of champagne! The fashion pieces in this film are incredible, Carrie Mulligan looks incredible and how could we forget old Leo he didn't look to bad either ;)

I mean I just Die over this Outfit!!

the outfits in this film I mean can I have them in my wardrobe ?

also Girls the head wear in this period is just to die and the certain 1920s dramas do not fail to disappoint with putting there characters in some seriously fabulous head wear!

Ugh There all so fabulous I mean, I would love to be back in that era, but I'd have to be rich otherwise I don't think it would all that fun! Because of theses programs and film I have become obsessed with this era of fashion, I love vintage and there a 20s sequins dress in the local vintage shop that I am determined to get for a friends birthday coming up! Will do an OOTN post on that for sure.

Here are some more photos of fashion in the 1920s

The Soundtrack to The Great Gatsby is Bananas its so good it really makes the film. Give it a listen here

Fergie and lana del reys are my fav tracks on it <3

Hollywood inspired looks

Rose is my favourite character for style on the show.

Hope you enjoyed this like insight on the past made modern
