What if nothing exists and we're all in somebody's dream?

A photo heavy post of all the things that are inspiring me at the moment.
I saw this idea on Johanna's amazing blog crookedzone and after reading it realised all the things I currently love are the complete opposite of hers.
She is inspired by Johnny Rotten, punk, heroin chic and giant Vivienne Westwood-like red coats at the moment whereas I am obsessed with fairy tales, bows, pastel colours, ballerinas and gowns.
This is what I love most about blogging; being inspired by others and realising what inspires you too.

Current Style Inspiration- Pile on the jewellery

There is the famous fashion quote from Coco Chanel, "When accessorizing always take off the last thing you put on" as well as the timeless dictum "less is more."
But my current style inspiration are people who are confident and clever enough to ignore these and do their own thing. So layer up loads of bracelets on one arm, put on all your rings or all your watches at once and wear them loud and proud.

Current Obsession- Misfits


My new favourite TV programme.
As soon as I heard it described as “Skins meets heroes” I knew I had to check it out and it doesn’t disappoint. Although it is nowhere near as good as the genius that is Skins it is still pretty darn great.
It’s basically about a group of ASBO kids who are doing community service when they suddenly gain super powers in a mysterious storm and it’s very funny, quite daft and surprisingly scary (Warning: also pretty rude so I always make sure that I don’t watch it when my parents are in the room haha...)

Watch the season finale tomorrow at 10pm on E4 or catch up on the series at 4 on demand here
