We were asked to show our surrealist skirts in a catwalk, which ended up being thrown together last minute. However I think it turned out not to bad considering. My skirt had tubes all the way round which would not stay open when I walked, so I ended up having to stuff them with whatever I could find (mainly other peoples scarfs).

1960's

For our CCS Class (contemporary contextual studies) we were split up into groups to do presentations, we were each assigned a different decade to research. I was so relieved to find that we had been assigned the swinging 60's, one of the more exciting and fashion forward eras. I've been given woman's fashion to research, and my Auntie Linda helped out by sending some of her photo's from the 60's


My Auntie Linda with one of her friends, Grace, they both have short hemlines, which were brought about by Mary Quant, who invented the Mini.


(1969)
Cooking spaghetti with her Mum, wearing white Go-Go boots, the term ''go'' meant ''all the rage'' they became popular in the 60's and remained that way into the 70's.

New Semester New Hair

Since it is a new semester at uni i thought I would change my look. It's hard to stand out in a lecture hall full of fashion students, but my hair is now pretty hard to miss. I used semi-permanent 'crazy colour' hair dye to do it, I think it washes out, when/ if it does I think i'll try a different colour. I was worried that work would tell me to get rid of it, but they were fine and said if a head manager came in, we would just say it was for some fashion project.

Vogue Vandalism

As it is a new year I decided to clean out my room and re-decorate. I decided to cover and entire wall with pages of various magazines since my room is quite plain at the moment, i also thought it might help give me inspiration for work. I made good process on it using pages from I-D magazine, however when I got to my new vogue magazine I found that someone had vandalized almost every page, Emma Watson was now sporting a beard and goatee on the front cover. Turns out my brother and his friends did it new years eve for a laugh... At least I'm getting reimbursed for the next issue.

Half Way there...
