Nana's knit


Being a colour blind has never been a problem working in fashion. They're very forgiving at Ralph Lauren, just never mention what colour something is. However, never shop alone else you end up with pink and green nana knit jumper.

I love nana knit, nothing better than a recycled unwanted xmas giftand you look like an intentional prick. There's something refreshing about just giving in to trying to look good and just embracing taboo. This gem's from brick lane
where the bargains are rife. Go on a friday when they get all the new stock for the weekend, without the saturday tourists and fashion lulu's



Happy Newday! xx

Keep those peepers peeled



If you stumble upon a shoot in POP mag next month featuring an S&M theme you can come find me and pat me on the back. That was me. I love a bit of S&M so naturally i reveled in the thought.


Yes, currently working at Ralph press office
means that any Ralphy menswear/womenswear SS 10 featured in any magazine shoots, style supplements or worn by a celeb for an up market do, went through my clammy little hands. Its difficult and its killing me. xx

There's something missing in our lives

Hi yop.... Have you ever realised that there are no menswear high street magazines for the average male fashion lulu without the budget of a real professional man? YOU HAVE????? wow me too...

So, for my final year project i'm creating one, yes sticky fingers and all... watch this space.

On another note, my friend is making a baby mag and needs to get pregnant to get a 1st, any takers would be great... need to be white (rich). her number is 07821314444 xoxo

Old Gem's


I was back at Peter's house a while back (Father) and I found a gem! An old 7000 Minolta SLR camera purchased by my Dad back in 1989, when i was a wee pup. Now, I know nothing about camera's as I have grown up with digital, take, upload and go. However, I set my self a goal to learn and appreciate this old craft of film and processing... I've processed an album already whilst in Dubai and the shots were grand, nice and grainy.  Now I'm experimenting with different ISO films (currently, if you must know, an Ilford XP2 super 400ISO) 

The slides above were created on such camera, bit shit quality but you get the idea.

I guess this is a bit of a reaction against the facebook generation, where the majority of pictures seem to be of people doing the same boring snaps of each other smiling in different locations and outfits. Like I wrote in an earlier post, photography is not fun at the moment. Camera's with film are great, they are authentic and unaltered, they are moments captured that are only revisited when the film is developed.... none of this "delete! i look like i have down's syndrome" before going through various photoshopping methods to make us all look like Paris Hilton. 

So yeh, I digress. Stop being so snap happy and enjoy taking photos yeh? There's no better feeling than the trickle of wee you get from the heart racing excitement of collecting your freshly developed snaps. Try it, its a hoot!
