Anyone excited to be on holiday ? :)

MY SECOND GRADUATION

Fashion Show and Model Search

Hello
So tonight I was invited to go and attend the Poetry Fashion Show, I am not sure if you are all aware of the brand called Poetry, but anyhow I am rather excited as the show is all about their new clothing range that is coming out so I will be one of the lucky ones to see this show. And then other news is that on the 7th I will be taking part in the Salt Water Girl model search. Not sure if anyone knows about it. Practically you go and have a photograph taken and then there is a process to decide on the winning girl but then the winning girl goes on a modeling trip to Paris and New York. It's all very exciting so I am really looking forward to that.
I hope that everyone is well.

ME AND MY SISTERS

GRADUATION

So about three days ago I had my Intermediate Graduation for modelling. I am still awaiting my results but I though that this graduation went a lot better then my Beginners. I was also a lot less nervous this time when I went out onto the ramp to model for the audience and the judges. I thought that this round went pretty well. My marks shall be arriving on Wednesday and my photographs will be coming in about 2 weeks , but when they arrive I will be sure to post a few photo's and let you all know what I looked like on the night. I hope that my outift went donw well with the theme of 'High Fashion Corporate Wear'. Well all there is left to do is wait and see. Here is just a picture to show you what my hair looked like, no extensions I promise. X

My Designs

To all my Followers,
I have decided to try out making my own designs. Making my own clothes I thought would be quite a different task. First off I have decided to create my own skirt (full length) because due to my height , it is very difficult to find a full length skirt that fits me all the way to the floor. My second design that I was thinking about was a full length dress (a maxi dress) that would be for summer to wear over my bikini. I also thought of perhaps making my own pair of shorts that are delicately designed with heart pockets on the back. What does everybody think of those few designs ? I will post in the pictures of them when I have finished making them. Sound ok ? X

MY LAST MODELLING SHOOT

OH LOUIS!

Louis Vuitton was founded by Vuitton in the year of 1854. Its first shop was in the romantic city of Paris. Shops were soon opened all over the world and even today there are just more and more of these fabulous shops opening everywhere. Im sure that all of you know Louis Vuitton for the amazing bags that are designed. Well do all of you know the design team. Take a tour around there amazing website. I thought it was very inspirational. LOUIS VUITTON WEBSITE. The team is headed by Marc Jacobs and himself and his team are able to create a fabulous design that is world renoun. Walking past the shops fulled with those amazing bags, delicate accessories and all sorts of wonderful surprises. I know that if I were to spend a day in that shop that i could completely blow the budget. Louiss Vuitton is a very inspirational designer. I admire his courage and will to carry his shop on even through the hard days of World War II. His first discovery with bags was discovering that the trunks that some of us use today as possibly a decoration in your bedroom and a blanket holder in your lounge was then used as very effective. He found that designing the wih flat bottoms and trianon canvas that they turned out to be extremely leightweight as well as airtight. This design soon led to another, and then to another, and then we got to today. Still living on and I would say as strongly as ever, Louis Vuitton shops all around the world are constantly buzzing with excitement and wonder of what design will be next to hit the ramp. This is something that I would call top fashion and very fashionista. X

VISUAL DIARY IDEA

So I have an idea and please let me know what all of you think ? So my holidays are coming up soon and I thought that I would do a fashion visual diary of everyday of my holidays or just 7 days. Each day I will take a picture of my outfit , describe it and then you can all help me with new fashion ideas and comment. I will show where I got each item from. Do you all think that this would be a good idea ? X

GABRIELLE BONHEUR CHANEL

This lady called 'Coco' is my role model. She was the first lady to break into a mans environment and world. She created a style that was adored by many all around the world, her designs and legacy are still living on. Has anyone out there watched 'Coco Avant Chanel' ? If so just post a comment and say what you thought about it, what you like about her ! I just love her class and even though she may have been criticized along the way, she still kept to her own image and her own style. Soon all the women around the world were falling for her style. This is what I call inspirational. Does anyone else out there agree with me ? Who else out there is inspired by her fashion ? There are so many words that I could use to describe this amazing woman. She has been the woman that has set the element and standard of ladies fashion for today's fashion industry. She has left her mark and her legacy will be left to remain in the minds and souls of many. And to think that she never thought that she would end up doing fashion, she wanted to be a singer/dancer. What would today's world be like without her ? X

FREAK OUT

So, first of all, let me just start by saying that my sister was the inspiration for this post. She has her own blog too, go and chack it out, www.heartsgivinghope.blogspot.com . Now onto fashion. The little black jacket is an inspiration for many. Wearing this item will give a sort of 'smart' effect. This jacket goes especially well with color blocking - in my opinion - and looks really good with skinny jeans and heels. Adding that LV carry bag shows even more style. There was once a girl in my modelling class who did this exact thing, she simply wore green jeans, a blue shirt, a black blazer jacket and multi-colored shoes. This outfit looked absolutely stunning and suited her really well. So what do you people all think of this style ? Do any of you often wear this and if so do let me know how you style this style on yourself ? X

HIGH FASHION CORPORATE WEAR

So, my modelling graduation is coming up and truly, the theme for the graduation is 'High Fashion Corporate Wear'. Yes, thats right ... I have to dress up like a business woman working on 5th Avenue or walking down the red carpet. This style is one of utter class. You have to be confident wearing the pair of killer platforms for the whole day while you walk around the office and also be prepared to wear that snazzy jacket on a hot day just to pull the look off. Learn to mix and match. And also have those sexy sunglasses and that perfect LV bag (or atleast a look alike). You will truly be the attention around the office all day and everyday if you can keep this look going. Oh and dont forget to put that lipstick on, sometimes this can complete your outfit. X

PIECE-BY-PIECE

COLOR BLOCKING. This is a very high fashion look. You should really know your colors well before you start deciding to adapt some colors together. The exquisite but not so simple art of color blocking has been adapted in todays society and in my opinion fits right in. This style is uniquely designed to place a various amount of colors together. These colors 'block' against each other therefore giving this style its name. This style usually requires more than one or two colors in order to create the desired effect. To give you an example; you could wear yellow jeans, a blue shirt (tucked in), a green belt, and purple high-heels, (maybe thro in  black blazer jacket). Very fashionista as I say. X 

VINTAGE ELEGANCE

The Vintage style was classically know to be worn between the 1920's and the 1960's.Giving the effect of being from a previous era, many women would die for this look. This is a very classical style that originated from the Victorian era. I just love it, I feel so elegant when I am wearing something that is vintage. I think that this style does suit most people. From a vintage suit to the most lady-like of dresses, this style will show high-fashion and absolute elegance. Wear this style carefully, be careful not to clash some items and always have class. Keep your style simple but chique when you are wearing this style. You can jazz it up a little. Cream is a very well known colour of vintage. I find that this style is especially beautiful for evening wear. But for daytime add your classy bag, those killer shoes, and that chique pair of sunglasses and you will be good to go. Very fashionista as I say. X

TONIGHT, TONIGHT

I just had my prom/ball recently. It was so much fun and everyone looked beautiful. Our theme was 'A night in New York'. We didnt get to choose our own partners, but hey ... you have to make the most of every situation. I felt like such a princess on the night, like Cinderella. I had my hair, nails and make-up done, my dress all picked out along with my shoes and bag. The night ran so smoothly and I had a blast with all my friends. I am wishing all of you that have your proms coming up the best of luck and I know that you will all look stunning. (see 'THE PERFECT PROM')
