Union Jack Fever....

With the world cup just around the corner its hard not to notice all the ways the union jack is presented but related back to football......while out shopping i was falling over union jack merchandise. Ok yeah so i did give into a union jack cushion but i brought it as to me it symbolises British Style.... British Heritage and
British Attitude.....

"British fashion is self confident and fearless. It refuses to bow to commerce, thus generating a constant flow of ideas whilst in British hertiage."
Alexander McQueen

Georgina Jagger
Rimmel



Agyness Dean with a union Jack Chanel bag....
a twist of traditional French style with British attitude.



Long live the red,white and blue.....
so when all the football fans are chanting "30 years of hurt never stop me dreaming" i have a strongly feeling i'll be dreaming for something else....perhaps that Union Jack Chanel Bag....

Say you believe in fairies .....I do...

You may or may not have seen this photograph but this image sums up the power and deception of photography. The story behind the photograph is one of mystery...back in 1917 two young girls pretended to take photos of fairies to make the world believe in them..
What begun as a innocent trick soon changed societies beliefs....

This interesting concept excited me into recreating my own interpretation...
but the question still stands do you believe in fairies???

Lost Rag Doll Photo Shoot (first year)

Model: Emily Wythe

The idea behind the photo shoot was to capture the emotions of a poor abandoned lost rag doll.
To give the photo shoot a twist i had the doll amongst other traditional toys
for example the Dolls House and the Rocking Horse.




Final outcomes:

These were some of my favourite images from the photo shoot however for the project we
only needed to have 2 final images for a retailer advert campaign.
Here are my final 2 adverts for the Roxy Heart clothing brand.



Welcome to the world of blogging...

Even though i am familiar with fashion blogs.....from the likes of Tavi the teen blogger to other famous magazine ones, i have never considered starting a blog of my own.
So with the long summer ahead of me i felt it was only right to begin now... i have no idea where this blog will take me but am thinking of starting with presenting some current and previous pieces of work.....
