From big screen to Fashion trends: The Host

Once the vampires dressed in gothic glam ruled the fashion runways last year to wave farewell to the hugely fantastic blockbuster Twilight saga, but now a new breed altogether is about to rule the fashion world!. Yes, Stephanie Meyer's, twilight author, "The Host" is about to hit the big screens this summer and I for one, believe it will be another massive blockbuster smash!. The Host is about a futuristic earth that is invaded by aliens, known as souls, who take over the human race. However one girls human soul refuses to cooperate with her alien host.
With the release of this new film, a new trend is about to take over this spring/summer and that is the space age style!. From Sparkling techno fabrics, clean cut lines and comic book sweatshirts, yes this trend preparing to launch any day!. Will you be apart of this futuristic new trend?


I honestly cannot wait for this movie!, so glad it got made into a movie because the novel is fantastic, I highly recommend it to anyone who has not read the novel yet!.

new sounds, styles and inspirations......

hey Beautiful people. As you can see I have been MIA recently, I am rather sorry for that. My schedule at the moment has been so super busy and I am hardly getting any sleep or any time for myself at all. I think I am physically exhausted and I just needed a couple of days to bring back the old me again.....but enough of any of that because as usual I have been on the hint for new style icons and inspirations, and let me tell you, I have found it!. It just happened one day when I was in the mood for some music to help me relax ( I am such a music nerd and it relaxes me) and that's when I came across this amazing lady known as Rainy Milo.



Rainy's voice is so full of soul and soothing. I have been listening to her mixtape "Limey" and I am currently addicted to the song "Don't regret me". Her music is quite entrancing and chilling, this wonderful lady sings with such emotion that I can relate to some of the lyrics that she is singing. It's wonderful really.

But however if you think her Music was enough to make you fall in love, you should take a peek at her style. I am such a sucker for artists with really good fashion style and right now Rainy Milo is ticking all the boxes for me. She is quite playful grunge mixed with an urban rock vibe and I am seriously digging the look. It gives off a sort of fun attitude to go with the rather eclectic music that she creates.

Right now I must tell you to check this lady's music out. Because she is one lady who I think you won't be able to forget about in a hurry. In fact, I think we might just hear a little more of her in the near future and I sure hope we do!.

Denim trends of the month!

with this cold weather that has fallen upon us recently more and more of us are wearing our denim jeans to keep ourselves and our legs warm!. However who said that this cold weather could dull your fashion style? In fact why don't you accentuate your lovely denims with the bold and fun 60's polka dot pattern! or dress down and casual with a pair of boyfriend jeans? these 2 denim trends are proving to be quite popular at the moment and I think will become quite a staple in everybody's wardrobes.

Polka Dot Jeans
Yes it would seem everyone is going dotty for these wonderfully fun denims!. Why don't you double match with a polka dot shirt? You can invest in a pair in any colour, I personally love pastel pinks or blues with white polka dots! So cute, even Taylor Swift is a fan!.


Boyfriend Jeans
Yes, the good ole Boyfriend jeans. Pretty much a wardrobe hero and this month they appear to have made one hell of a come back. The best thing about these babies is that even though they are comfortable and casual you can still add a little chic to your outfit by teaming them with a pair of kitten heels. I like to wear mine lung low and teamed with an oversized shirt or sweater.



So will you be fun and flirty with polka dot jeans or casual and cool with chic boyfriend jeans?

Fashion at the Critics Choice awards

So if there is one thing I love about celebrity awards shows, it's all the beautiful dresses and couture that I get to see gracing my screens. However being a huge fan of the film industry has it's perks as well and I always enjoy seeing who walks away with the awards and last night it was the Critics choice awards that have started off the awards season for me and I must say most of the A listers looked on top form, Especially Jennifer Lawrence. Here is a list of who I thought to be on top of fashion style last night while who kind of ell flat a little.

Best dressed.
In my own personal opinion, I think that Hunger Games actress Jennifer Lawrence absolutely outshone everyone else on the red carpet, not to mention she dominated the night and ended up winning 2 awards! One for best Actress in "The Silver Linings playbook" and also best actress in "The Hunger Games"!. I was extremely glad for her, she is such an inspiration and I have fallen in love with this women!. The Black floor sweeping Jimmy Choo dress suited her perfectly and accentuated her even perfect figure!.
Anna Hathaway was another who I think looked absolutely magnificent!. Her floor length Oscar De La Renta gown had me in awe!. It suited her and I think she suits her short hair as well!. She just all in all looked beautiful!.
Oh and how Could I forget about Naomi Watts, who seems to be the leader of the fashion pack right at this moment. Not only did she turn heads last night in an Emilio Pucci gown that looked like perfection but she also wowed the press in a black and gold Alexander Mcqueen gown at the People's choice awards!.


The Not so best dressed 
Now I'd like to start off by saying that I don't necessarily believe in a "worst dressed" list because I think that everyone has the right to wear what they like but that doesn't always impress. I myself would probably make a few "Worst dressed" lists depending on everyone's tastes. So that's how I felt when I saw what Famke Janssen, Amanda Seyfried and Leslie Mann and their wardrobe choices. I felt that, Janssen who was wearing a navy John Galliona gown and Seyfriend's marios Schwab dress were just too busy and I felt like I didn't have a clue what was going on, there was just too much. And as for Hunt's Pink lace Honor dress, I don't think I really need to say anything to be frank. It would look lovely, if you were about 12 :/ not a grown women. It just made her look to young.
So that's my thoughts on the fashion style that was showcased at last night's Critics Choice awards. These are just my personal opinions. Did any of you guys watch the Critics choice awards? if so who did you think shone and simmered out? Also were you guys happy with the winners? I must admit I was so glad when Jennifer Lawrence and the film Argo won their awards! Ben Affleck did a great job again!.

2013 please be good to me....






Well that's the year of 2012 finally passed us by, and before anything gets mentioned yes I know I am a little late with the new year post :/. However I have never posted one and really wanted to post one!. 
If I am going to be honest I cannot believe that 2012 has finally gone and passed us all by, it was a year that just came and went for me. I have to admit I guess I am kind of glad 2012 is over, not to get all depressing but the year didn't start well for me. I broke it off with my boyfriend, was in a terrible work place and all my friends had shown their true colours in my time of need. But then something funny happened. near the end, my life took a complete different turn and my life started on it's way up. I started my college course in fashion business (my life long dream), met new friends and of course, I began blogging more and more meeting all you other lovely people around the world. And I am so grateful for all the support I have received, it makes what I do worth it all. I guess what I am trying to say is that I believe that 2013 shall be a good year. For every one of us. Don't hold back on what you feel, let it all out. Because every day is a new chapter in your life to begin something great in your life. So take the opportunities you are given in life and never forget to live your life to the fullest. Love a little bolder and laugh a little louder. Make the world a better place to live in and make your own way. Never forget to take risks and be brave because there will be people in your life who will try to hold you back, while there will be others who will encourage you to pursue your dreams. I know from experience there are some leeches in the world and I have been in a dark place for too long. So it's about time to see the light and forget all the negative's that are in the past and look to the future that only we can create. Don't let someone else do it for you. So yeah, I guess what I am trying to say is, this year, 2013, is going to be a positive year!. Time to Look to the new beginnings. So here it is, 2013 Chapter 1.

New styles, New hair, New lifes........

Well Christmas is now officially over everyone and of course I hope every single one of you lovelies had a great Christmas? did you all get what you wanted? stuff yourself silly and realise that your bank account has suddenly become really small? Yeah me too....but overall it was a lovely Christmas. Such an excellent family time I think. Well now that Christmas is over, I know it's time to get back to business for a few of us. I am still of college for a little while but I have now decided to start work on presentation boards, design sourcebooks etc, and yes that is how I spent my boxing day, with tons and tons of work, so no I never got to go to the boxing day sales this year :( Made me extremely sad. However while I catch up with my work that I had been procrastinating on, I realised that when it hit Christmas eve it has been exactly a year since I had to cut all of my hair off. Long story short, I used to dye my hair to much and then when I went to get it fixed a certain hairdresser bleached my hair even more and my hair was completely destroyed. Like beyond repair!. To all the girls out there you will know just how much our hair means to us. But I did grow to love my short hair and even kept it that way for a little while, when the new year came around I felt like a new person and had started a brand new chapter of my life. The year before had never actually been that great, and I felt like my life was in need of a change. i just had to go in a new direction. In a way, you could say I felt as though a weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. Well I have grown so accustomed to my short hair that I don't know if I want to continue growing it long or cut it again? Such a tough, tough decision. Which is why I have decided to call on all you guys to help me with my decision. What do you think I should do?
                                                               Natural Hair (Long time ago!)


Current Hair 


Long/Short style


Pixie Cut


Short bob and Black/blue

Long red with sidefringe



So what do you think I should do guys?

It's the most wonderful time of the year....

Yes Christmas time is almost upon us! after just 2 more sleeps one of my favourite times of the years will arrive and pass in the blink of an eye! but I must not get too ahead of myself right now because right now it is at that time of the year where I am staring at all the stacked up presents that I have bought for my family that are nowhere near wrapped or even sorted at all!. Now usually I would be wrapping all my presents on Christmas eve, however this year I am a little booked to even have the time to wrap my presents this year tomorrow night. So right now I am sitting in my room with a cup of hot chocolate ( a necessity for this time if year!) as I wrap my christmas presents with the Santa Clause films on in the background to get me a little more into the festive spirit. Like most of you guys, this time of the year is exceptionally hectic and I feel as though there is a lot I have not done. Don't you just hate that feeling? especially at Christmas time! I must admit though that this Christmas eve shall be rather exciting and eventful. First I shall be doing some last minute shopping, then off to see the Hobbit with the family and then I'm getting my party shoes and frock on and heading out for a night on the town with some of the best girls that I know!. Yes, I feel as though this Christmas season shall be a good one!. I hope the rest of you lovely, wonderful people are having a good time during this wonderful holiday season and I truly hope each and everyone of you will have a merry Christmas!. As for now I am off to go wrap the rest of my presents. That is if the Santa Clause films don't distract me first!. Actually, I'll end this blog post with a questions for you guys. What's your favourite christmas film? and what are you up to this festive season?
