Oli Sykes

from Bring Me The Horizon

yep i'm still fifteen.

if you can tell me why i still love him - do explain!

I felt like doing this little blog as I was bored. And I've been working all evening so I felt the need for something to lift my spirits!

Also I haven't really spoken about boys in a while.

Yes I'm still slightly head over heels for EJ. But that's a complicated one right there.

It's that feeling when you dislike them when they aren't around but as soon as they walk into the room and notice you, you just melt a little bit.

Why won't it go away?!?

Well anyway it's pretty late and I've done enough work for tonight I think.

Night all!

Listening to Hole In My Heart by Alphabeat.

notion.

I bought this magazine the other day. And I think I'm actually in love with it?!?

I've never seen it before because it's not often I get to go into big newsagents with a large array of magazines.

This was also an accidental find. It was put in the wrong place by someone in WHSmith, and I just was instantly attracted to the design of it. The magazine was a bit battered though so I went on a hunt for a nicer version, took me a while but I found them in amongst the music magazines.

It's actually really amazing! It mixes fashion with music, my two all time loves. Plus it has Josh Beech on the front - yummmmmm!

I just think the photography is really interesting inside it. And I've just loved it since I got it. It's proudly placed on my bookshelf now and I'm not going to cut anything out of it because it's too nice to do that too.

On to another note.

Am completely coveting these:

How beautiful?!?

They're Louise Goldin for Topshop.

£150.

As if I can afford that though :(

They remind me of the Louboutin's that Henry Holland keeps wearing.

Addictedddddd.

Anyway it's time to clean the bomb site that is my bedroom.

Listening to New American Classic by Taking Back Sunday.

night out.

Another night out with the girls.

Yeah the trolley ended up in the kitchen... with the traffic cone..

Being a student is so much fun!

You could never do a lot of the things we get up to if you were an adult. It would just look weird.

It was a good night :)

Listening to The Color Fred.

five secrets.

Shhhhhhhhh...

1. I still think one day I'll find him in bed with my best friend.

2. Sometimes I'm too scared to ask questions because I don't want to sound stupid.

3. Every time you speak I zone out.

4. I regret everything I ever did with you. The thought of the whole thing makes me cringe and I wish it had never happened. Pushing it to the back of my mind is impossible.

5. I have no idea what choices I'm going to make. But I always make the wrong ones.

Listening to Starry Eyed by Ellie Goulding.

Wolves

I have quite a big obsession with wolves.
I have to buy some item of clothing if it has a wolf on it.
I have quite a large collection of wolf clothing now. I've got a jumper from Topman, a jumper from Lazy Oaf, a t-shirt from ASOS, a t-shirt and vest top from Dorothy Perkins, a top from Drop Dead... Those are the ones that come to mind. I have more.
I just think wolves are so beautiful.
And if I was an animal I would be a wolf. Because wolves are very family orientated. They stick to their clan for life (unless of course you're a male then sometimes you get booted out because you try to dominate). They're so strong and powerful.
I also have a tattoo of a wolf on my foot. It's an outline, it has no colour - except for green eyes which you barely notice - or detailing to it. It was my first tattoo when I turned 19. I've had it for over a year now and I still don't hate it. I wanted a wolf for such a long time, since I was very young. I always knew I wanted a wolf tattoo. So that's probably why I don't regret it and won't regret it.
In fact I'm tempted to get another wolf up my side but this time with a lot more detailing and more lifelike. But I'm saving this for a long way down the line. And often when people try to get lifelike tattoos of wolves they turn out so great, I find.


On another note Nutter got a blog today :D It's on tumblr.
She has so far posted a picture of peanuts, and some pictures of her work. Heh.

Listening to The Vampire Weekend.

The Fashion Book.

In an effort to make this blog a bit more fashion related and for me to learn a bit more about fashion designers, I'm going to take my fashion book, flip to a random page and research the designer that comes up on that page and post it on this blog. I might not do this every time I write a blog but I will try to do this as often as possible.

So here goes...

Ley Wolfgang and Margaretha (Escada)

Escada was launched in 1976 by Wolfgang and Margaretha Ley, it was named after a winning racehorse.

Images from Escada.com

When Escada first started out they originally came up with a style much like the bourgeois look. Nautical stripes, sexy suits but with unusual combinations of colours and patterns. They were well known for their use of sequins to every surface. In the past decade or so Escada have taken a new approach.

Their Spring/Summer 2010 collection I see is bright, bold summer colours, that instantly make you think of pure white sands, light blue water with little movement, cool breeze, sunshine and palm trees. I like the geometric patterns and shapes they've got going on.

The colours used remind me of peacock feathers but brighter. I love the shade of green they;re using. Reminds of me of fresh grass.

The animal prints and the nudes are sexy.

Well that's Escada for today!

I need to go take some Buttercup syrup so stop this horrible cough!

Listening to Angels and Airwaves' new album LOVE.

you never forget where you were when you heard...

I was in the production room at uni, sewing the tailored jacket we have to make together, just putting my first pocket in when my mum text me to say Alexander McQueen was dead.
I was stunned and didn't really believe her. I instantly called her not caring that I was in a lesson to find out if it was really true.
It's such a loss for the fashion world, his family, his lover.

It's just all so sudden.
Bunny, Irish and I were sat in shock.
It's so strange as well because for the past two weeks I've been looking at the Alexander McQueen dvd in the library and thinking to myself I really want to watch it, should I take it out, do I have time to watch it... Deliberating for days.
And it was only monday when we had a seminar about him and his collections. And it was so interesting!

It's just such a loss.

Rest In Peace Lee McQueen.
