<br />
So, this post is long, long overdue but I thought I'd finally publish it anyway - better late than never!<br />
<br />
Even though I officially finished my first year of Uni on 27th May (this year has gone craaaaazy fast), I volunteered to stay a bit longer to help out 3rd years with their collections ready for Graduate Fashion Week, and worked as a dresser backstage on day 3 of GFW for the BCU show. <br />
<br />
I actually began helping out a 3rd year student from March right up until the day before she left to show her collection in China in May with a few other students, which was great because I really got to see the process of how her final collection came together. I was involved with every stage of making her garments - god knows how many hours I spent hand sewing, but it was worth it in the end because her collection really was stunning. <br />
<br />
The week before GFW, it was a mad rush to get everything finished and pack everything into boxes, and each first year helper was given a model and their outfits from each designer which we were responsible for and had to organise.<br />
<br />
On the day of the show, we unloaded the boxes backstage and organised the rails with the order of outfits with the correct shoes and accessories to go with each one, had the chance to meet our designated model and have a dress fitting. Fortunately for us, our model was lovely, and made the effort to chat to us before she had to rush off to other fittings - obviously a true professional. <br />
When it was time for the BCU show, the adrenaline was insane, everyone was running around like headless chickens because we had about 30 seconds to get our model changed into an outfit, whilst ensuring they were wearing the right underwear, everything was styled exactly how the designer wanted and the clothes were pressed to perfection. Some outfits proved to be a nightmare to put on the model because the fastenings were really fiddly or had multiple layers, and coupled with the time pressure it was fair to say my heart was beating like crazy! Everyone worked so well as a team even when the event organisers were screaming at us to hurry up whilst the heavy bass of the catwalk soundtrack blared out of the speakers around us. After the show was over, we had about a minute to have a breather before it was another mad rush to pack everything back into boxes and load them onto the van. Although most of the day was pretty stressful, I honestly loved every minute and am so glad I had the opportunity to do it - I didn't realise how well I actually work under pressure and how much I enjoy it - I'd definitely recommend being a backstage dresser to any first year fashion student if you get the chance! <br />
<br />
Throughout the whole day I think we had about 15 minutes to look around the other Uni stands with students work and portfolios on display, and the talent was absolutely insane, it really motivated me to work harder next year and confirmed that my goal for 3rd year is to try and get into GFW and be able to showcase my work there. Anyway, here are some photos I managed to take during the day, as well as 4 of the 5 outfits I dressed on my model Ieva (photos from GFW website).<br />

With the GRAMMYs tomorrow and the Oscars later this month, awards season is in full swing, and although all eyes are usually on the best dressed female celebrities, now new male fashion trends are attracting just as much attention. Together with The Black Tux, the 'not so traditional online suit and tuxedo rental company', I've created three red carpet looks which reflect my own style and compliment three suits/tuxedos from their collection.<br />
The Black Tux offer quality, convenience and value for money, and so I've scoured the web to find three affordable dresses which would go perfectly with the three suits I've chosen, considering the style, cut and colour of each one. I've then styled each dress to show how I'd personally wear them on the red carpet.<br />
The suit/tuxedo and dress combinations below could inspire your own 'red carpet look' whether you're planning what to wear at a prom or other special event, and if you're interested in finding out more information about The Black Tux, visit <a href="http://www.theblacktux.com/">http://www.theblacktux.com/</a> <br />

Keeping with the monochrome theme, I've styled this classic black tux with a white embellished dress to create the perfect balance for a couple's red carpet look.</div>
<div align="center">
White is classic and timeless for the red carpet whatever the season, and this dress from ASOS' Red Carpet range is a real showstopper, classy with the leaf embellishment detail, yet still sexy with the thigh high leg slit. To compliment the detail on the dress, I've styled it with simple silver Kurt Geiger shoes, and accessories from ASOS. To finish the look I'd wear a matte red lipstick like Ruby Woo by MAC to add a pop of colour and a retro feel. </div>

<br />
This grey suit is my personal favourite from the collection, and for me, a pastel coloured/printed/jacquard dress with a full midi skirt perfectly compliments a classic grey suit. <br />
Here I've styled this Ted Baker dress with silver pointed heels from ASOS, an embellished clutch bag from Accessorize which mimics the detail on the shoes, as well as simple teardrop crystal earrings from ASOS. Finally, rose pink lipstick would complete the fresh take on a 50's inspired red carpet look.<br />

For someone looking for something a little different to the classic black tuxedo, a midnight blue version is a refreshing alternative, and paired with this red fishtail dress from ASOS Red Carpet, it creates a glamorous and striking combination.<br />
To compliment the dress, I've chosen softer, champagne gold accents in the Sophia Webster shoes, Charlotte Olympia clutch and Shay Accessories earrings rather than a yellow gold to avoid cheapening the look. For jewellery, ear cuffs are a cool, modern update to classic chandelier style earrings and the examples above add a quirky twist to an otherwise traditional red carpet look. For lips, a matte red lipstick would look great but a nude would also work really well. <br />

What do you think of my outfit combinations and what would you wear to a red carpet event?<br />
I'd love to know!<br />

This month has been a very busy month, especially the past two weeks since I moved from home in Sheffield to Birmingham for Uni. As part of my induction week I had to do a group project all about exploring and getting to know Birmingham, and as part of the project our group decided to each take photos of an area of interest in the city and document them on a map. Before moving to Brummie, I had a look online of places to go and The Custard Factory in Digbeth was number one on my list just because it seemed like a really cool, artsy place with vintage shops galore - somewhere definitely up my street. It did used to be a custard factory and is now home to quirky independent shops, sculptures and amazing street art.</div>

Just because I enjoy posting photography related posts, here are a few photos I took whilst having a wander around.</div>

After a long delay here's my final outfit in the Corfu Style Diaries which I wore on our last night on holiday. It features this gorge bargain jumpsuit from H&M which I managed to pick up in the sale for £7. It's super comfy, flattering and effortless - the perfect holiday piece. Unfortunately, when we were walking back to the apartment I managed to deck it and rip a small hole in it :-( (a few too many cocktails I think haha). To style it I added silver jewellery and a chunky belt to synch it in and add definition to my waist.</div>

This is definitely one of my favourite outfits I wore because it's a DIY I did before I went on holiday. I made the skirt last year from a tutorial and wanted a matching top to make a co-ord from the material I had leftover. After searching to try and find a tutorial for a boxy crop top I couldn't find one with the kind of shape I wanted, so I adapted a top pattern from a New Look pattern I already had, by cropping it to the waist, adjusting the darts and enlarging the sleeves so they were looser fitting. I'm really happy with how it came out and how it looks with the skirt - I'm definitely going to makes lots more of this style of top in different prints and decorative touches, it feels so satisfying wearing something that you've made yourself!</div>

So here's the second instalment in my style diaries, which is almost head to toe Primark. I absolutely love this monochrome printed top, and I'm so glad I managed to find it, I definitely think it's either hit or miss in Primark, or my local one anyway. The maxi skirt is an old purchase from a few years ago, I found it in the back of my wardrobe and had only worn it a couple of times, but I thought I'd go really well with the top so I decided to take it - not going to lie it made me feel a bit sassy swishing around in it haha. The skirt has some shorts attached (just to let you know I'm not actually showing off my underwear ;-)).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To tie the look together I added turquoise accents in my jewellery and wore a pop of pink lipstick to add a bit of colour.</div>

I think the monastery in Paleokastritsa was one of my favourite places that we visited because it was just soooo pretty. After we'd been on a submarine trip in the morning we decided to head up the hill to the monastery which everyone had told us was a must see, and it was definitely a treck in the heat, but worth it for the views on the way up. Me, my mum and Katie were given handmade skirts and shawls to cover up as a mark of respect, which I think is my best OOTD to date on this blog ;-).</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Everything was so picturesque, hence why I took a LOT of photos - and then it got even better when we kept spotting more and more little cats (me, my mum and sister are a bit obsessed), so many so it seemed like this gorgeous, tropical shrine for lil felines. Inside the monastery it was really beautiful and ornate, and the atmosphere was very serene.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the first outfit in my Corfu style diaries, and it's quite a simple, laidback look. I'm currently obsessed with this necklace combo from H&M, my Topshop cat eye sunnies and these gorge truffle collection sandals - these were my go to accessories and shoes of choice throughout my holiday. Cat eye sunnies are super flattering on a range of face shapes and luckily these suited mine (I always struggle to find ones that do), they also make any outfit look chic. I also mostly chose these sandals to wear in the evening because they're really comfy, add a bit of height and go with a multitude of summer outfits.<br />
This outfit also features my patchy burnt legs, which I stupidly burnt on the first day.. and the apartment owner's cat who we called Lola, she was so cute.</div>

It's a grey, miserable day in Sheffield and I'm currently dealing with post holiday blues after just coming back from two weeks in beautiful Corfu. We stayed in Paleokastritsa (which has about five different spellings but I'm just going to stick with this one), and we took a trip into Corfu Town on the third day of our stay. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Corfu has a lot of history for a small island, with the town split into Old Corfu Town and New Corfu Town, each with their own fortress. Stalls and dinky little restaurants are in every nook and cranny, and Greek shopkeepers and waiters are everywhere you turn trying to entice you in, even making you a 'family' member<em> - </em>according to one restaurant owner my mum was his <em>'beautiful daught</em>(er)<em>'</em> and me and my sister were his <em>granddaught</em>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are a few photos I took around the town, it was extremely hot, nearing 40 degrees so after walking around we went into St Michaels & St George's Palace mainly because it was nice and cool but it also turned out to be quite interesting as there were a lot of pretty Asian art/artifacts. I always love learning about different cultures and the pieces that were on show at the palace would have been perfect research for the oriental themed shirt project I did in college, ah well!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway hope you enjoy :-)</div>

<br></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">So I haven't really
posted for a long, long time (apart from college related posts) and to ease
myself back into it I thought I'd dabble a bit into skincare and write about my
current favourite products.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">For the past two
years my skin has been all over the place and a major knock to my confidence. Up until my last year of school my
skin was very clear and I only had a bit of dryness on my face, although I'd
suffered with eczema on my hands since primary school. Stress and changes in weather
seem to make my eczema flare up and my face to become extremely dry and
flaky between my eyebrows, on my cheeks, on one side of my face and even
my eyelids and it's only recently that I feel I finally have control over my
skin with the products I'm using. I'll admit I've never been very good at
drinking enough water, the one factor which aids for better skin, however even
drinking more didn't seem to make a difference, and other moisturises for
'dry/sensitive' skin have never been hydrating or gentle enough for
my extremely awkward skin.<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">
</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">After becoming
frustrated at having to apply multiple layers of cheaper brands of
moisturiser (Simple, Nivea, Garnier) just so that my skin actually felt
moisturised, I spent ages reading reviews for La Roche Posay, Vichy and Avéne
products on the Boots website. I decided to try Avéne Skin Recovery Cream for
hypersensitive and irritable skin and got the thermal water spray for free
on offer at Boots. So far I've really been enjoying using it and I feel
like it's made a massive difference to my skin. In the morning I'll wipe my
face with a cotton pad soaked in water, gently pat dry, spray my damp skin
with the thermal water, wait for that to soak in, and then apply the cream to
lock in as much moisture as possible.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;">
The spray is really
cooling and has really helped to calm down any redness in my skin, and the
cream has pretty much eliminated any dry patches I had while leaving my
skin feeling plump and well moisturised. The cream is £16.50 (Boots) so more
than I'd have usually spent on a moisturiser, but it's well worth the
money because it does exactly what it says on the bottle, and the thermal
water spray (usually £10) came free with it so a win win :-).<o:p></o:p></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
To remove my makeup I use Garnier Micellar Cleansing water which I've been using for over a year. It removes makeup really quickly, adds hydration, and is great for sensitive skin because it doesn't irritate or leave the skin feeling tight afterwards. For my night time routine, I use this, followed by the Avene thermal spray and cream.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Aveeno is a really great brand for eczema prone skin. For years I used E45 recommended by my doctor, and although it may work perfectly fine for some people, it left my hands red, greasy and raw looking. Aveeno hand cream is non greasy, absorbs quickly, lasts through hand washing, and above all it really moisturises my skin and has helped to improve the appearance of my hands. The daily moisturising lotion is also great to use if you suffer eczema/dry skin on your body.</div>

<div align="center">
So there are my current skincare favourites. I really hope this is helpful for anyone who has a similar skin type and has been struggling to find products that work because I know for one how much dry/sensitive/eczema prone skin sucks!</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 8pt; text-align: center;">

Deanna Kennedy’s quick, sketchy, black and white corpse like figures. I really
liked how her signature style was to draw the hair messy and flowing, the face
with one eye completely white and full pouty lips, creating an eery and dishevelled
feel but still glamourous illustrations which would compliment my designs
perfectly. To develop her style into my own I sketched a couple of
illustrations in my sketchbook which had long straggly eyelashes, white eyes, and
indications of colour on the skin and lips, finishing them off with fineliner. I
decided to add a hint of skin colour to add a bit of life into the corpse like illustration and again to symbolise growth and decay. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>For my boards I used a
variety of media including watercolour paint, watercolour pencils, acrylic
paint and fineliner. After completing my first board using a lot of white acrylic
paint on the brush to a 3D wadded effect on the skirt on one of the designs I
decided that I would incorporate white paint in all of the designs to add further depth/ detail.</span></span></div>

Here are the photos I took of my lovely pal Eleanor in my final garment around Kelham Island in Sheffield. To go with my theme of growth and decay I wanted to find derelict buildings to use as a background but any that we found just weren't accessible so instead whilst wandering around we found a wall with archways and river behind which worked really well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For hair we went for a slicked back style, and after a failed attempt at 'glossy eye makeup' we resorted to smoky metallic eyes and a dark red lip.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm really happy with how the photoshoot turned out and I really enjoyed taking the photos - as part of this project I also produced a lookbook which will be included in the next post.</div>

To make the 'ruffles' to represent shrivelled/decayed flowers I started off by using gathering stitching and gathering the organza fabric with elastic, as well as pleating strips to make circular shapes but neither proved to be a success, so instead I took to pinterest to look for diy flower tutorials. I then followed a tutorial by cutting out lots of 4cm circles and sewing four folded circles to a base circle, and repeating with four more trimmed down slightly and sewn on top. After this I literally ruffled the layers and made 11 more to be sewn onto the collar and waistband.</div>

I found sewing the insert to the bodice and petals to the waistband difficult because first of all it was very hard to get a neat finish at the point of the sweetheart neckline, and secondly because of the wire overlapping the seam, I had to sew back and forth over the wire to make sure it was held in place.</div>

Before this stage I'd already sewn the bodice and skirt, then I had to sew the petals together, cut down the seam, turn inside out, press, and sew wire next to the seam with a one toed zipper foot.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sewing the wire into the petals was challenging because I had to bend it to the curves of the petal and make sure that the wire was as close to the seam as possible, but I'm really pleased with how they turned out.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I also added darker brown tones to the bottom of some of the petals because some had dried lighter than others and then pinned them to the mannequin to get an idea of the placement on the waist.</div>

I chose to use satin back dupion for the main fabric because the dress was structured and the quality of the material was suitable for my 'couture' garment.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
For the petals I had to cut and dye each one individually with pigment/brusho inks and then add darker tones with acrylic paint and watercolour paint. Previous to this project I hadn't dyed fabric before so I deciced I would use this technique this time around and it proved to be time consuming but worth it in the end! I also drafting the smaller petal pattern and repeated the same steps for the five petals which would be sewn into the collar.</div>

Here are photos of my final toile. I made another petal this time using lighter and thinner wire but I still wasn't happy with the size and how the petal still drooped. So I then sketched another petal pattern and compared it to the one sewn onto my garment - I finally came to a decision that the petal needed to be smaller than the one I'd just made so I drafted a final pattern. I also used a white netting for the insert which I think looked a lot nicer than the organza I'd used in my first toile.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After finishing my final toile I decided I wanted the silhouette of the skirt to be a lot more fitted, so I took in the side seams in and altered the patterns, adding a vent for ease of movement.</div>

Firstly I lengthened the skirt to make it midi length, added in a waistband, created a sweet heart neckline and then adjusted the darts to make the bodice into four pieces so would fit nicely around the bust.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I also made the pattern piece for the insert to go between the collar and bodice. As you can see below when I had sewn the bodice, it proved to be a bit big at the side seams so I had to then adjust the patterns accordingly.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaHLQ1oQb6AsyP17O_tveLYXPlVWnM1OzKkIeSxGM6IhNCeMU_M4m28R58N9LxMem1yzkZ163opvmDaptIZUpv8dE7FPt8xYPUP5VWsbN2nO6dSRDk4aZ5pe3Mdjll0dEZb6EJuIoC7cnN/s1600/IMAG3784.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

<div style="text-align: center;">
For my final project at college we had to write our own brief and choose a theme, so I chose to do 'Growth and Decay in Nature' because I felt there would be a lot of different elements to my theme which I could explore and design from. <br />
My silver spray painted sheep skull which my uncle gave to me (not your typical 18th birthday present but I'd been after a decorative skull for my room for aaaages and I absolutely love it) proved to be the first object I photographed as a starting point for the project. I then took a series of photos from inside the conservatory in the Botanical Gardens in Sheffield of any plants that were in the process of blooming or decay which I found interesting - focusing on shapes and textures. I also had a look around Weston Park museum to see if I could find any animal skeletons/bones, however I hardly ended up taking any photos and the ones I did take I wasn't pleased with so didn't include them.<br />

Denim is a staple in pretty much everybody's wardrobe and so here are some of my favourite denim pieces for spring. Even though denim is always a reoccurring trend, it's a bigger and better for spring/summer this year - whether you like minimalist or more retro styles, the styling options are literally endless!</div>
<div align="center">

Monki's selection of denim at the moment is on point and my wardrobe is crying out for this gorge shirt. I've been wanting a denim shirt for a while and this is the perfect one, I love how minimalist it is and I think it would look great with black ripped skinnies and chunky silver sandals or worn undone over a striped dress.</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
I also absolutely love this a-line skirt from Topshop, which is really similar to the one from Alexa Chung's collection for AG jeans. It's the perfect skirt for this season and would look really cute styled with an off the shoulder crop top and platform sandals for a 60s/70s vibe.</div>

Which is your favourite piece? How would you style denim pieces for spring?</div>

ASOS have a team of stylists who offer style advice for customers one to one on asos.com as well as on twitter. They also provide inspiration with daily ootd's on instagram, the latest trends on pinterest and styling videos on asos' youtube channel.</div>

Each stylist is unique and would all style my trousers differently, for example Megan who likes to mix 60's and 70's would probably pair my trousers with an off the shoulder top/crop top, chunky boots/platforms and fur jacket. Whereas Isabella would most likely style my trousers with a minimalist duster coat and barely there strappy heels.</div>
