PLACES: TIM WALKER; STORY TELLER AT SOMERSET HOUSE
"Really I only photograph what I truly love. By this I mean I only get invovled with and place in front of my camera what moves me uncontrollably."
The underlying macabre and sometimes sinister tension to Tim Walker's photography, combined with a fantasical sense of drama and glamour makes them incredibly alluring and fascinating. Simply awe-inspiring.

STREETSTYLE: 90s GOTH
Not strictly streetstyle... I styled a shoot for my store with photographer, the ever wonderful Emily Scarlett Romain. I love photographing Bryony, she's such a natural infront of the camera and has great 90s Spice Girl style - see here if you don't believe me.
For the full set of Autumn lookbook photos check out my store's Facebook page (and hey, you might as well give it a Like whilst you're there).
Also, don't you love how the hair/sunglasses/purple lipstick combo make her look as though she should be in En Vogue (my current style icons) in their 90s heyday? I do.

SHOPPING: THE CALAMITY KIDS SHOP
So... I am starting my own ickle wickle concession at BLITZ VINTAGE DEPARTMENT STORE. I have been spending all my spare time sourcing some dead good girly chintz and dead weird curios. ALONGSIDE... drum roll please... these little gems! As a little girl I never had My Little Pony, so it is a constant struggle to fight the desire to keep getting the collection out and regressing to about six years old. Talk about nostalgia.
Disco the black terror is not for sale. Soz.
