not tonight but sometime soon

Okay, sorry I've been absent a while, non-stop revision and then hardly ever staying at my own house doesn't make for good blogging.

I've had this bralet from Urban Outfitters for a while now and don't really wear it as underwear 'cause its a bit longer than usual and is kind of annoying, HOWEVER, is it acceptable as a top?

I know I'm like a year late on the underwear as outerwear trend, but who's following trends these days anyway?

Feel tonight is a tad nippy (aaaha), but I like the skater-dress look for another time yis?

Went a bit crazy on the Urban Outfitters sale. Well not reaaaally compared to how I could have done. And it was only 'cause this lovely dress from Topshop that I really wanted (well I didn't at first but then when I realised I couldn't get it I wanted it more, don't you hate when that happens?) was only left in a size 16 so I think it's fair enough really. Also I'm still in the mindset of "ohhhh my jewellery got stolen so I need more yuh?".

Anyway, these babies will be arriving soon. Hopefully. Just thought I'd let you know.

devil got my woman

I wasn't even going to go out tonight, but decided on a lil excursion to the Shed. Only been once before, probably around this time last year actually. Weird. Has cheap cocktails apparently though. I'm probably a bit overdressed, but I was inspired by the vintagey bluesy music I was listening to whilst getting ready. And I've never actually worn this shirt (typical amazing guy from Salvation Army) as a top, so. 

Also, here's that necklace I got on the Urban Outfitters 20% off night. I loves it, gold, chunky, weighs me down, perfect!

Sorry but I like being grainy alright.

long time no post

Hey there. Jeez it's been ages, shaarrry. Here's a bit of an update on what I've been doing, and also 'cause I'm probably going to have to use this as a form of "online promotion" for one of my modules anyway, it's a little bit of that too.

First, for design development, we have to begin by researching the brand/customer of a certain designer. We got Yohji Yamamoto. Here are a few of the pages I've personally done so far..

Next, in garment techy, apart from learning how to use knitting machines, and (from monday) starting to make our own garment(!), we've had to do research boards every week. Well it's only been a week so I've only done one but hey,

Currently attempting to research "body shapes/blocks in knitwear". I have to go to town tomorrow and do a bit of primary though.

Went home for the weekend, it was nice. It was really really misty. I've decided mist is my favourite weather. But yeah, did a bit of chilling, a bit of shopping, bit of eating. You know. Also got this amazeee ring from Ding Dong Vintage, slowly starting to build up my jewellery collection.

Also went to the 20%-off student "lock-in" at Urban Outfitters last week, got a couple o goodies, which I will no doubt show you another time.

Anyway, better go work now, so I can hopefullys go see Jakwob on Tuesdayyyy. ♥ Barry.
