it is now the summer holidays, so here are my ideas for using your imagination and having fun with style for the next few weeks, here are 25...
1- collect some fashion magazines and make a collage
2- call for your friend and have a dress up session
3- call for your friend again and experiment with make-up
4- gather up all your friends/siblings and have a huge shopping trip
5. get your sewing machine out and make some clothes
6. go on stardoll.com and dress up dolls of celebrities and models
7. read fashion blogs and update your own, or if you haven't got one, make one
8. try making your own accessories
9. watch stylish films like sex and the city and confessions of a shopaholic
10- get out some books on fashion from the library
11- give your younger sister or cousin a makeover
12- ask a relative if they have any old issues of Vogue from the 60's, 70's and 80's
13- go through your mum's wardrobe (ask her, of course!)
13- write a book about your style

14- sort out your wardrobe and give your old clothes to charity

bright blazers are my new obsession.

 FLORAL JEANS! who invented them?

sh-sh-sh-shake it up

okay, i have too post about the style on my new favourite TV programme, shake it up. i used to consider myself way past the Disney channel stage, but this programme is AMAZING....
the main characters are rocky and Cece,and i love there fashion. Cece is an indie girl with an eclectic style, and all Rocky's outfits are girly and colourful. here's some pictures...
i love the red socks and blue jeans on this picture! not sure about Cece's jacket though, but i do love her denim shorts. although it's so cold this summer you can't wear shorts!
i love how this waistcoat is worn over the sequined top! the hat adds a unique twist to the outfit, and that it goes with the t-shirt. very tribal!
i have serious blazer envy.
love these acid wash jeans. who knew they looked so good with a skirt?
