Drawing Fashion

Drawing Fashion celebrates a unique collection of some of the most remarkable fashion illustrations from the twentieth and twenty first centuries. A breath taking collection with Film-clips, news reels, music and photography that reflect not only the spirit and the style of the decades but also the wider social and cultural changes of the century. Enjoyable variety with informative videos.

These original works define the fine art of illustrating fashion, from the collections of Chanel, Dior, Comme des Garçons and Poiret as well as Viktor & Rolf, Lacroix and McQueen. My favourites pieces are featured, the collection was so inspiring it made me want to quit my job and become an artist! on from 03 November – 06 March 2011.

Sparkle Sparkle...

Right now I am obsessed with glitter nail polishes! This one is No.7 in Siren with a 'sally's' glitter top coat. I'm so in love with the nails inc 'all that glitters' set and their crystal caps range - oh so Christmas chic! what are your fav glitter polishes?...

"What is it you REALLY like to do? Eat!"

I recently watched the delightful film Julie and Julia (2009)and it really inspired me. It tells the story of two rather inspirational women who's lives become intertwined, even though in two totally different times, they both find their success in cooking; "they discover that with the right combination of passion, fearlessness and butter, anything is possible."

Whilst the plot unfolds with both women using their passion for cooking to get their dreams, this light hearted comedy drama captures the beautiful relationships of the supportive and loving husbands; "You are the butter to my bread, you are the breath to my life." Love this movie...

Feeling Festive...

I love that feeling when you start to feel festive, the Starbucks Christmas menu has arrived, beautifully decorated stores, Christmas gift guides, the dark cold nights where you can snuggle with some mulled wine....
I am such a kid when it comes to Christmas and I love preparing lists and organising gifts early! How are you preparing?...and what is the one thing you are wishing for this year?

Velvet High Waisted Short

I recently purchased these pretty little shorts and I have to say, I think they are my favourite piece this season. Ideal for A/W layering, perfect for a Christmas party. I'll be teaming mine with black polka dot tights and a uber cute sheer blouse, so chic. I just adore the jeweled buttons and the soft velvet fabric...so cute.
