Popcorn & Coco.

This is a fashion must see! I am so glad there is finally a release date. 

Coco avant Chanel, it sounds so much better in its original French title, tells the story of fashion icon Gabrielle 'Coco' Chanel from before her success. A headstrong orphan who went from cabaret singer to humble seamstress. She embarks on an extraordinary journey before becoming true fashion royality. 

I don't want to tell you too much, even though the majority of you will already know the story. It's out in cinemas on July 31st, so get all you fashion lovers out wearing your black and white chanel inspires outfits, pearls and sunglasses (please remember to take them off before the film starts!) and watch what is truly on of the greatest moments in fashion history!

If that isn't enough fashion for you! Keep a look out for documovie 'The September Issue'. Documentary filmmaker R.J. Cutler followed Anna Wintour and her Vogue team for nine months as they put together the 2007 September issue.With seemingly unreal access, Cutler followed Anna and her team to Fashion Weeks around the world, to photo shoots, to visits with designers like Vera Wang andNicolas Ghesquière. But mostly, they were in the Vogue offices. In this two-minute taste of the movie, we see scenes of Anna working in her office with her team.

Until the movies are out we are just going to have to watch the trailers over and over again.

As I said in my previous post, I just got back from my holiday in Tunisia and omg it was amazing. Sun, sun, sun and more sun! Here is one of the outfits I wore during my holiday. I wish I could but all my photographs up so you can see! The food was lovely, I did miss my pork since there wasn't any other there because it is an Islamic country! Thankfully, there was no time difference to London because of Ramadan so no lost sleep! There was so much to do and see that a week just wasn't enough. Jet skiing, paracutes, quad biking and relaxing on a catamaran ( actually that isn't true! It was horrible!) was all we got to do as well as enjoying the beach, pool and local waterpark! Thanks to the boyfriend for taking me on such a wonderful African adventure! Love you so much. So here are a few photographs of my adventure and my outfits!

i love martine.


I really do love martine. Her style and look  is really amazing! I only just saw her on chictopia and I am amazed by just one picture. The dress above is a vintage bargain which only cost her $30 damn, I hate the fact that it is vintage because I can't get one! =[ 

Her blog, ilovemartine is also amazing! She is a my new styling muse. She is creative mixing old with new, picking great vintage pieces. Sorry I haven't updated in a while, I was away from my mac and my blog for a week soaking up the sun in Tunisia with the boyfriend. Don't worry I've taken lots of photographs so you can se all my outfits!

Shopping: Women vs. Men


I laugh at this because 89% of the time this is so true. I say 89% because I have been in Topman and nowadays our male counterparts are actually taking longer to shop. My boyfriend since he's been with me takes longer to shop, but not to the extent of the 'female' in this diagram. 

Now ladies, let's not deny with done a similar trip to this.
