Popping Candy

I'm never usually a neon, but this season spares sumptuous exceptions. The popping brights have clambered up the style ladder and earnt a prestigious place amongst my garms, sitting both lavishy and comfortably.
Ciate nails eased me into the trend with a warm welcome of tangerines, limes and lemons.  Speed Dial 023, Big Yellow Taxi and Mohtio mixed with an aztec monochrome midi released my initial acceptance, swiftly followed for the need of this fluro number. (orange knit) Post Somerset House Street papping lead me to dive into the depths of swift fashion...yes Oxford Street. Zara, Topshop, Forever 21 and a few glossy mags later, i found myself eyeing up everything electric. Neon necklaces and acrylic box bags introduced the season with a reminder that their is a spring glow reluctantly awakening despite the frost and snow. The tangerine cosy has already revived and alerted a stir of style and allowed me to go back to garms id stuffed to the darks and depths of my wardrobe - featured here with a Zara stud collar shirt, disco pants, Ebay-envy-bargain-Bowler and my trusty cropped studded cowboys from a trip across the pond to the fabulous NYC. A touch of luxe with my Mulberry purse, Michael Kors watch and classic Wayfarers (orignals borrowed from my Modfather!)
I cant wait to team this bright with my fave cow boy embroidered denim shirt, or with my new powder blue oriental-lace Topshop skinny cigarette trousers for some popping candy action!

HOLA CHICAS

The heat of the sunny spanish festival beaconed a loyal return for the second year running. Acts such as The Stone Roses, Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds, The Buzzcocks and Maya Jane Coles made the festival one not to miss. Festival fashion was a bit of a fail this year with neon paint making a tiresome reappearance and most peoples efforts similar to that of the streets in sunny Brighton. I guess to those unfortunate enough to find their postcode absent of the crucial BN introduction, this years FF was a riot. An immaculate collection of customised Levis shorts, freshly fringed tee's, tie dye tops and dip hem dresses. Studs scattering the beer tents and glitter surfing the crowd. Thankfully Jim Morrison was splashed across more band tee's than John Lennon, separating the fans from the sheep however Stone Roses album art took home a solid gold amongst its contenders.

21 years since The Stone Roses broke through the early 90's brit pop scene, and a 21st Birthday speech from my ModFather made meeting the man himself even more exciting.

VIP courtesy of Steve Diggle (The Buzzcocks) insured a non-existant que. bar, a variety of plush seating areas, mingling with Jessie J's manager, producer and band, chilling with Ham Sandwhich, catching up with Ed Sheeran and being totally utterly starstruck by Ian Brown.

Playground Graze

Sunny Monday morning in Brighton meant one thing...winter wardrobe hibernation.

The GAP dungaree's i have been itching to wear finally slipped off the hanger to form a collaboration with my new topshop mulit-print top, classic raybans and black fringe socks...

90's revival minus the grunge, you are my new fave.
