Here in the UK it’s still pretty cold out, especially in Manchester where I live. I am getting seriously sick of my winter coats, so I was trying to think of new ideas for lighter looking but still warm outfits. Sorry to sound dramatic, but putting a thick coat on at this time of year feels sad and uninspiring! So; - short of putting thermal underwear underneath my summer dresses, I am...

Vintage Craft Labels
Reading this great post from A Pair & A Spare got me thinking about re-organising my craft things. I decided to label my many rolls and bundles of fabric, as well my overflowing boxes of haberdashery and ribbons. I found a few vintage inspired gems in the form of free downloadable labels. You can edit these on the computer before printing, or just write on them by hand. If you don’t...

Flatforms
Better than wedges? Easier to walk in anyway.. Described by the Telegraph (here) as: “A hybrid of a shoe with the Goliathan height of platforms but the comfort of flatties, flatforms had serious fashion backing from the likes of Prada and Chanel at the spring/summer 2011 shows.” Also seen at SS12 and then resort shows from: SS12: Derek Lam, Vena Cava Resort: Celine and Calvin...

Postmodernism at the V&A
The V&A explores this movement in the exhibition Postmodernism: Style and Subversion 1970–1990.  “Of all the movements in art and design history, postmodernism is perhaps the most controversial.  An unstable mix of the theatrical and theoretical, the movement defies definition. Postmodern style had many different faces: colourful and ruinous, ludicrous and luxurious. What they all had...

Portfolio
I would love some feedback on my new portfolio site, and criticism on the work too! Is it user friendly, quick enough to load, and most importantly looking good? Any other suggestions? Have a look at the site here.

Leica Postcards Exhibition
These photographs were absolutely beautiful. They made me remember why I must go traveling again! The exhibition was only small, just through one corridor in the Lowry hotel, but still worth a visit if you are in the area. 20th October to the 29th November. The photographer David Lake has travelled the world, covering international events such as the Tsunami in 2004. The focus on the people...

The Pan Am Legacy
I started off totally loving this show. Fabulous female leads, elegant outfits and just enough drama. However I have been a little disappointed at recent episodes, too many stereotypical romantic story lines! The costumes are always great however.  Melissa Whitworth from The Telegraph, visits the set in New York to talk the costume designer Ane Crabworth. It apparently takes a whole month...
