Holler if you hear me, Hey! Can I get a Witness!

I don't care what anyone has to say, Britney is awesome!
She went through a tough time and everyone was so negative, but that's society for you. No sympathy for those with obvious mental health issues. That being said, her VMA performance was pretty poor and also a little obscene!
Back to my original point. I LOVE her new songs, they're all over youtube and everyday at college I'll roll over to the IT centre to look up some pretty pictures and rock out to Britters!
Today was an ok day, I was feeling slightly better and the man voice was slightly less manly. Mondays are actually my favourite day at college because we have some of the best classes; textile design for fashion and furnishings based on a period from 1850 to 1980; fashion illustration, and fashion design based on a theme of your choice (I'm doing Marie Antoinette)

Stumbling through the latest issue of Harper's on my lunch break yesterday I came across a black leather, biker jacket from the A/W 07 Kate Moss for Topshop collection. It's gorgeous! very well cut and reasonably priced. However, I already have a jacket similar which Santa brought me last year and I couldn't part from that! All in all the A/W collection seems a LOT more inspiring than the debut collection which I found to be boring and dull, it's still quite plain and those infuriating vest tops remain but as a whole its definitely improved.

Here is the aforementioned jacket and some other pieces which I quite like;





Anyway, It's pretty late where I live and I've got a driving lesson at 7am tomorrow morning. So I'll leave you with a bit of Ms.Spears!

It's Fantastic! Obnoxious, but Fabulous!

Mmmm that's hot!

My day today was pretty good. Got up showered and then My dad and I hit the shops with first port of call being, of course, TKMaxx. I couldn't stay away, the allure of marc, miu miu and prada at bargain prices was all too much to handle! However, upon my arrival, I saw what appeared to be the few items they got in, a few miu miu sweaters and a couple of hideous, old ladyish prada tops. Eugh! I was making my way to the fitting rooms to try the miu miu sweaters when I saw a reeally gorgeous See by Chloe dress; 100% silk and only £100! I tried it on and it looked so flattering and high quality that I had to have it, and it's now hanging pride of place in my newly, immaculatly organised wardrobe!
After this we went to the Contemporary Arts centre for lunch, it was SUCH a nice day today that we decided to sit outside and I had these devine Thai fish cakes with a Sweet Chilli and Soy Dipping Sauce. Yummers!
We hit Zara to pick up these ankles boots I have been lusting after since Cannes but, alas, they didn't have them, I'm going to have to do a total mish to find these now!
Tonight I went to Pilates and did some work on my inspiration boards for my fashion design course. All in all in was a good day. Not looking forward to tomorrow though, I have life drawing which I dislike, then I have to go into work at 5.30 for a stock check which will go on until 9 pm! Gutted!

My life this week...

Has so far consisted of two days au college where I am studying (and loving!) fashion and textiles and one day cleaning the house, having a singing lesson and enjoying my little sister's birthday. This is my second week into the course and I think it's just great! So far I have particularly enjoyed fashion illustration and fashion design, for which my theme is the wonderful Marie Antoinette with whom I am obsessed and Ms. Coppola's delightfully colourful and vivid film only helped to enhance this obsession!
Tomorrow mon pere et moi are going shopping, I can't wait! I was tipped off by the Sunday Times Style Magazine this weekend that TK Maxx is rumoured to be getting in a huge shipment of Miu Miu, Prada and my one true love, Marc Jacobs.
How lovely!
