Jean-Pierre Braganza

So I went to a lecture tonight at my uni by Jean-Pierre Braganza.
It was so interesting, insightful and incredible (oh yeah three i's - that good!!!).
He's such a down to earth guy, he made us all laugh and was really chatty. He was humble about his work. Really truthful.
It was just so amazing to meet him and have a chat. Truly incredible.


Some of my favourite things he said:

"I think in black, dream in black, live in black. Black is my poison."

"My belief in life is think for yourself, question authority."

"Sigmund Freud always said to know where you're going you must know where you've come from."

"My life's like the Robert Frost poem, there are two roads that diverge into a forest and I chose the road that took me to fashion."

"I hate the term rock'n'roll, but I live and breathe rock so it is my design philosophy."

"My concepts always start with a storyline, some war or alien species taking over the world."


Really amazing.
I hope to learn more :)

To mend my heart I turned to hating him.

Don't you hate it when you see someone truly beautiful and you spend the rest of the day thinking about them?

Darn you beautiful people!


I find Natalie Cassidy really irritating. And all these adverts on E4 don't help.
Stop advertising it every two minutes!!


On the other hand, it's officially Christmas as I have seen both the Coca Cola advert and Toys'R'Us averts! Woooo!
Christmas makes me excited, for going home, seeing my friends, being with family, seeing my sisters kittens, the warm atmosphere around christmas and snuggling up in bed with snow outside (although half the time this usually happens after christmas).

My friend Dilara and I dyed my hair today. It's very exciting times as I have been blonde since before summer now (which I know hasn't been long but its felt like a long time - so much upkeep trying to get rid of the yellow). It's a bit of a big change from blonde to red... But I think it's worth it.
My new hair is inspired by:

Follow her here, if you like.
I just really liked her hair! It's pretty amazing.


I had a hand-in today. My first hand-in for the year. It was SO relieving. You have no idea.
7 sketchbooks, 6 illustrations plus working drawings, moodboard, technical dossier, half a tailored jacket, final garment, final garment pattern pieces and workshop work.
All handed in.
I will admit a couple of things I didn't finish to the standard I would have felt happy with, but its done and I'm hoping its ok.
I also tried my final jacket on someone today. Really good to see how it fits. I would have tried it on someone sooner had it not been for the fact that its not often I see men anymore. My life seems to be dominated by girls at the minute. My guy friends have all disappeared. I'll go insane soon...

"And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind
I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is while you're in the world"
- Elton John


.heart.

Right now I really need to get to bed.
I need to catch up on blissful sleep.
The thought of sleep right now, is like heaven. It's like I can imagine my bed being lots of fluffy white clouds and falling into it all soft and cosy, and shutting my eyes in bliss.... Man.... I want sleep!

£165



Anybody got £165 to spare for me to buy this House of Holland hoody for Browns?
No?
Oh ok.......



On another note.... YUM!
I think I like nice hair too much?

Back to work.
Make the rain stop.

Happy Bonfire Night!

Wednesday.

I'm seeing my best friend who I haven't seen since around June. It's going to be interesting.
I'm a little bit scared but at the same time very excited.

I'm also feeling completely unmotivated. So much so I'm going into Uni late.
I can't sleep properly which I don't think helps. I don't even know why?





For today these are the things I can't stop thinking about.
Hmmmm...
