Living in the Sky with Diamonds

The new Cobra Starship Video is finally up with my dress in it!
It was supposed to be uploaded yesterday but the time difference to America kinda got in the way..
Was all filmed around Portabello Road in London and the nearby streets, Lewis and the other guys (and Laura not to forget, looking amazing!) did a really good job :)
Its not on Youtube yet, otherwise I wouldnt have just put the little player in, so I guess i gotta link it the oldschool way.

KitKats Shoot

Not got a lot to tell, Ive been ill for quite a while and havent done a lot..
My sketchbook work is going a bit slow but I might post some stuff soonish when Ive done a bit more.
Just thought Id post the photos of Kats photoshoot for her last Uni project that I modelled for, has been a while now! Was mainly about trends AW2010/11 (lace, simplicity, beehive etc)
The first two are ones that she picked as some of the best ones, the other two are just ones I liked ;)

No idea why Im looking so massively pissed off :S

She could have at least photoshopped my fat legs :( But aw well... 

These 2 are only scans thats why the quality is a bit poor.

So yeah, modelling is not exactly one of my favorite free time activities but its fun once in a while ;)

Been a busy bee!

But havent actually managed to do any coursework :(
My family was here for easter so I didnt have a lot of time but I used my evenings handstitching some things while I was watching Dvds that my dad brought me.
My skirt is fiiiiiiiiinaaaallly done! Started that last september but never bothered putting the zip in and the hem never got done either.. Same fabric as my blue dress (different colour organza though), just thought Id use the bits that I had left.

Photos arent the best, but you cant really do much without a model ;)

And the fabric looks slightly creased, but thats just the way it is I guess. I spent ages trying to iron this fucker but soon as you pick it up it already resembles a grannys arse again.

Looking at it again now, Im quite happy I didnt have to make another zillion organza flowers again. After my final collection last year at college, I think Ive made enough for a lifetime!!

Ayyyy and a bit of embellishment, found the rest of my white silk organza and made the top of a dress which Im just decorating now, the rest will be added as soon as all the beading is done.

Something to do while watching Tv when Im not in the mood for knitting :)

1h of being a rich girl again

... then I found some new shoes.
Its always the same, going out to rescue the world and all I come back with is a new pair of heels!
To be fair, they ARE kind of worth it! I need them, full stop.
Got them on Carnaby Street at Irregular Choice, didnt even know she shop existed before! But its dead cute, they got some really lovely things in there. 

Thought Id need some smalls heels (not that I need a "little bit of extra height" since im 5'11) but just something a bit more posh than my old skanky Urban Outfitters pumps. And these are seriously the most comfortables things ever! Dont even have to wear them in, the leather is soft enough.

Next time I feel like investing in shoes, I will definately go for some of there babieees:

I want them aaaaalll!
But seriously, Irregular Choice is worth a visit :)
