take 2!

i'm starting again. some of you may remember that a couple of months ago i started my seond clothes challenge; which was to wear something leopard print everyday. my camera broke (when i say broke i actaully mean ran out of battery) so i couldn't photograph anything and there for the challenge came to a hault. so starting again; here's take two.


challenge is to wear something leopard print everyday for a month. today is the 9th January, so my challenge finishes on the 9th February; this will be fun. i encourge you to join me in doing your own fashion challenge.

today's look

(excuse the face - this was taken before 7 am this morning) a gery leopard print blouse (NEW LOOK) worn with black high waisted skirt (H&M) and blck pantent loafers (F&F TESCO) just another day in the office.

cry baby

just watched cry baby. i now wish my hair was long and i was skinny enough to fir into my peddle pushers.

LUNCH TIME SHOPPING

Re live the 90’s grunge with these two baseball mesh sleeve dresses from TOPSHOP. £46.00 each 

Would look hot with ripped tights/ faded jeans and pair of doc martens 

new year, new...

…Shoes!! of course what else! But it is these beautiful brown leather doc martens that have got my heart racing over the last 10 days. 

 

Father Christmas was very good to me and got my exactly what I wanted. A brown pair of 1490 Doc Marten’s; they feed my new obsession for brown shoes. Where I have got this fantasy I am quite unsure but brown seems to fit/clash very nicely with everything else that is in my wardrobe right now, and I want to get more. I’m currently trying to hunt down a pair of brown creepers. (yes I know they sound amazing!) but the only pair I can find is a homemade set on ebay for £70, not including p&p and I just can’t bring myself to spend that amount of money on a pair of shoes. Though if I still have not found a pair by next pay day I might have to dive deep into my cath kidston purse, bit lip, and lie to everyone and by them.

I generally did quite well for clothes this budget Christmas. Also getting some red aztek print leggings, which are surprising flattering on my size 12 legs. An offensive mustard yellow cardigan which I really wanted; and some hair accessories.

So I have written out my plan for 2012 in my new leather bound diary. 14 resolutions I have!! Don’t fret! I won’t bore you with them all, but they consist of the normal, travelling, meet new people, save money, move out, write a book, get published etc I also have a pile of 40 books and 17 dvd’s all unread and unwatched, and I vale to myself that I will watch and read them all before buying any more (neither to say, I wrote this last year and failed miserably).

So happy new year everyone! Best wishes to you all!

Lotta love

Antoinette vintage

style crush:

it's very rare that i post the same subject on my music blog anf fashion blog. but this time there was a need.

see photo's above of new kid on the block, singer/songwriter Tanya Lacey. not only does she have a style i wish i had but she also confims me to atempt to dye my hair blonde again.

Tanya Lacey is from bristol, UK and began her career singing in a local reggae band at 16. she learnt and perfected her talent and currently in the studio recording her forth coming album.

you can hear Lacey on Loick Essen’s track ‘how we roll’ which she features but she has also realised her own single ‘letter’s to my ex’

new year!

it's the new and this is my desk - just about to sit down for an eveing of research, blogging, music, writing, cutting up magazines and having the ocassional break to dance stupid around my room.
