STREET STYLE

just thought id show you some of my new purchases like these perspex Camden boots and the lime green Nike tee. this is a more sporty and masculine look for me but the see-through boots and the necklace pouch make it more interesting. i photographed the clothes laying on my hand tie-dyed bedsheets.  hope you like it.

Penny Board

This week ive been getting into the summer mood and have decided to invest in a more interesting form of transport than the tube so bought a Penny skateboard from Urban Outfitters where i work. ive boarded a couple of times before and have been snowboarding about ten times so i pretty much knew how to ride it already. when boarding in hyde park a couple of guys skated past on normal boards, luckily i stood out a little with my bright yellow board and purple wheels. expect loads of photos of me skating in the parks of London this summer.

∆∆ YOUTHBLOOD ∆∆

Ive been real busy recently going away for easter but im back in london and whilst away ive been listening to some great music. a couple of my good friends started a band about a year ago called YOUTHBLOOD and they have a really unique sound, its like a pyschedelic electronic mash up. i havent gotten them out of my head and cant stop humming the tunes to ELECTRO TRACK and FUNERAL as well as some of their new stuff like VVIBES and NOT SCIENCE. definitely worth a listen as they've been gigging all around the southeast and have got some great things lined up for the summer.

Black Sands gig

Last night  a friend of mine invited me to a show at the Paper Dress Vintage shop in Shoreditch where a band called Black Sands were playing. I came away humming their newest release 'She' and made my way out to Bank for a night of awkward dubbing to dodgy 00s one hit wonders. Maybe next time i'll learn to stick with my gut and stay out east.

Customisation workshop

The other day at uni we were given the task of customising a plain white tee and heres what i did!

First of all i cut it into a crop top (very 90s) and then i sewed a patch of faux fur to make a breast pocket. i then turned in and stitched the sleeves, giving them a more capped feel

I didnt want to over customise and thought id stick to a more simplistic look. 

Beauty shoot

Heres a couple of shots from a beauty shoot i styled with some uni friends a couple of weeks ago, it was great getting to work with some new, very creative people and getting some great results
