Mix it up.



London was cold, so the biggest fur coat was appropriate. Wearing this with a new Stussy tee, Disco pants, comfort was key trekking round white city & the surrounding areas all day! First time I've used this knock off burberry bag at £3.99 from a charity shop i couldn't resist; & of course, i wore my newest most favourite chunky white shoes that still deserve a mention although you cannot hardly see them in these photos! Strictly tourist photos next to graffiti pieces that caught my eye! The legendary Marilyn Monroe & the main man himself. Jesussss.

Walls of London

A few finds from shoreditch, brick lane, portobello and other possible urban backstreets in the surrounding areas!






This was beautiful. One side street off of Brick Lane was covered in a wave of tiny butterflies and cartoon images sailing out of this illustrations mouth. Some had fallen off or blown away but none were purposely moved by human contact. I appreciated this. 


Sheipard Fairley original back there! Creator of Obey propaganda; alongside some cool crazy car sculptures that have fallen from the sky.



Mr Banksy made a small appearance. 




Lastly my best one in amongst two beaut artworks from the weekend, and some of our favourite pieces we discord right next to our new favourite thrift shop full of worn-out Levis and nineties bomber jackets!

Pastel blue in the morning & a new day is dawning!


This seasons new crazy Stella McCartney chunky platform optic white shoes are to absolutely die for!.. But so is the price! Since seeing them I've wanted a statement pair of white shoes! River Island you've done me well!

We've all seen the 'it' coat of the winter season.. Every shade of pastel pink on a oversized blazer was the one! But as we are approaching spring I couldn't resist this Dorothy Perkins beautyyyy! I was so excited for Mr delivery man yesterday morning. Pastel pink... Pftttt! Make way please.

LDN. Where we went, What we saw, What we wore!

This weekend was shared with my very best friend, we went exploring parts of London that I've wanted to visit for a VERY long time! Shoreditch, Brick Lane, and Portobello market, you've been there or read about them in the papers! Thrift shop heaven. Many antique hideouts, such locations where you might find the likes of Matthew Williamson or McCartney snooping round for materials on a friday morning! Massive inspiration was found whilst exploring around lanes of Shoreditch and here are some takings of the weekend!

Portobello was full of vintage pieces, wether they work or not, the mechanics and intricate designs of some of the classics objects were fascinating! 


I very much want a door like this one! Found in Kensington, now theres a surprise! 

Introducing documents of a fashion school dropout!

Right here. Right now. As it stands I'm back right where i started! Leaving University was one of the hardest decisions for me; but for more reasons than one i believed it just wasn't the place for me. Ive welcomed 2014 with open arms, already feeling so much more motivated and focused on what i want to do & where i want to be. Currently my commitment working within a competitive fashion village working for Michael Kors has developed my knowledge of the fashion industry & giving me an insight on really how crazzzyy people get over luxurious materials, big names designers and these multimillion pound conglomerate companies! (Take note the Bicester Village car park Boxing Day!)

But it excites me; it Excites me for things to come in this next year! Being a teenager who has always taken note on trends that have been spread over magazines such as Elle and Dazed over the years, of course id love to dress head to toe in Stella McCartney, Roberto Cavalli or perhaps McQueen on weekdays? But No. Definitely not! Realistically, I'm not in hibernation. I love spending money socialising, partying and of course buying clothes!

I love to mix charity shops finds with high street buys and the occasional expensive accessory. Styling things right is key! 'Documents of a Fashion School Dropout' is exactly what it says on the tin! A varied mixture of fashion, music and art posts, I love to document most things! Im just hoping looking over posts to follow may help me again one day and can remind me what to throw together when a girl has 'Nothing to Wear!'.
