A little bit of what I love

Now my blog is up and running its about time I told you a little bit about me, and what I love. I've always been worried about describing myself because I don't like to put myself in categories as my interests are quite varied and I'm always learning more and finding new things in life than can change me as a person.

So I'm a twenty something 'International Fashion Marketing' student in Manchester doing my final year in university. Originally I had plans to become an architect but I found it was more of a passion instead of a career. Since fashion was always something I enjoyed and could never get bored of, it seemed like the right path. 

My first love was Chanel. like a lots of girls I'm sure! But it wasn't till I was 13 and looking at one of my best friends Japanese fashion magazines, and I saw all these unusual cuts and designs which were sculpted and constructed impeccably. It was like architectural fashion, and I fell in love.

Now I love all sorts and literally i mean all sorts, I think I can appreciate a wide range of fashion, and I love all sorts of shops and music and I have so many interests so hopefully in time I can show you them 

But something I couldn't live without, which I use for instant inspiration is my Vouges. I cant live without them. Brilliant for reference or to look for some ideas or a product that I swore I wouldybuy once I had the money. And stuff that I wish I could own. The collection may not be very big and impressive,  but its helped me so much over the years definitely worth starting if you love fashion!

Toast

Toast is comforting, satisfying and always picks you up. Which is what I needed when I decided today was the day i'm going to start my blog. I thought to myself, I'm going to stop procrastinating and get out there and just start typing.

Starting with the first thing I had in my hand (toast) and the closest thing next to me (glitter), I went on a magical journey. Creating something beautiful.  But, unfortunately inedible. If only I had edible glitter!




It took me a few shots, but i finally got my perfect shot. and with a bit of jazzing up on my tablet version of Photoshop, i got this.



So that was how i stumbled across/ made my logo. And this is my Blog. Taking something ordinary and making it into something unique, a bit like glitter on toast. Inspired by fashion, which sometimes takes a different route.
