Young Hollywood








 

I'm loving this Young Hollywood collection by style stalker. I chose some of my favourite images from the collection more are available here. I love the slightly grungy 90's style of these clothes and to me they seem a little boyish with a femine twist - i don't know if anyone else agrees. I think the title of this collection is great because the clothes portay the girl who's modelling the collection to be an 'IT girl' and confident - i suppose that's what we think of when we think 'young Hollywood.' The stylestalker blog is great and well worth checking out i've added a link above. 
I'm currently in my last week of school before year 10 - which i'm so exited for! At my school once you reach year 10 you get a black blazer rather than the disgusting green colour we have in year 7,8 and 9 so that's a little thing people are looking forward to. I had a really busy week last week with watching some friends in the summer show (which went on for 3 hours!!!) but they were great, then it was my mums birthday and she went away so i was at my grandmas, then my laptop broke. But all is well now and i'm looking forward to the summer holidays and i'm hoping for england to be really hot for a change!

Its absolutely awful outside today i was supposed to be taking my little cousin to a horse show but it was cancelled - so i missed my friends party now for no reason which i'm gutted about.  I've just been looking at some photos i've collected on my computer they are all from tumblr but i thought i'd put a few on that i really liked. I went through a phase of being really into bits of text and quotes from people so i have tons written in a little book which is cute so i thought i'd add some nice ones to this post. The rest of the pictures are slightly random things that i like - enjoy.

Milin Lookbook












I've just been on a mad following spree and came across a post on thefashioninbox (click for link) showing the collection of Thai designer Milin Yuvacharusku. I adore this collection because its so young and fresh yet tailored which allows the outfits to be worn from day to evening. The pastel shades and greys are a great colour scheme which create the effect of a dream. Maxi dresses; Pleated mini dresses; wide leg pants and onesises are basically what this collection consists of. I'm also a big fan of the shoes how they have cleverly been wrapped with fabric of the garment which i think looks gorgeous.
Can't wait to see more of this new designer.

So I thought I would try out taking a few pictures and seeing what people think. I chose to wear a really basic outfit as I was looking for some simple black and white images. If I decide to go down the route of blogging pictures of myself I will wear more put together outfits and show you my style. The last picture is an image i drew last night its supposed to be Bambi Northwood Blyth don't know how much it looks like her I think I did her head a bit to big, oh well.
