Nineteen

    

  

So this past weekend I celebrated my 19th birthday with a few friends in what I dubbed a 'dessert party.' This meant a 4 course meal exclusively of desserts and with my friends, that sort of thing goes down pretty well. The theme for the evening was 'Vintage Hollywood' so I decorated with some trusty ol' streamers and photos of classic Hollywood film stars from the golden age. The theme gave my friends and I the rare opportunity to be thoroughly glamorous and so I employed the help of my sister to snap some pictures for keepsake. So here's my crew of misfits and vagabonds who scrub up pretty neatly on occasion. Sorry for the image overload, I was spoilt for choice!

Have a good day :) !!

Two of my favourite people! Liz and Patrick

My Birthday cake!!

A bit grainy but the outfit I wore to go clubbing for Liz's Birthday

First off, I'm sorry some of the images from the previous post on the Rodarte collection did not work. But I have them fixed now (I think). I'm really not very tech savvy but I hope they work for everybody and not just me now.

Secondly, I've decided I don't show nearly enough of me on this blog for it to really be my personal style and my life. SO here's to amending that. My life isn't too fancy by any means but I'll do my best to make this a better representation of what it is rather than simply a series of sartorial inspiration from various runways and look-books. It was my 19th birthday two days ago and I'm having a few friends around on the weekend to celebrate with me so I'll certainly have more photos then.

Thirdly. I have a (huge) blogger crush on Nicole Warne of Gary Pepper, but then, who doesn't? Her style is just so spectacular and her life, overseeing her online vintage shop and zipping around between Fashion Weeks all over the world has me green with envy. I feel so inspired by her and she makes my desire to work in fashion all the more intense !!

So that's all for now, I've got to get back to studying for my finals! Have a wonderful week :)
