(Anne Hathaway- Met Ball, Cheryl Cole- Cannes film festival, Gemma Arterton- Prince of Persia premier)
It seems like a lifetime ago that I blogged, So sorry, I've been completely busy with revision. Although the amazing and uncircumstancial hot weather recently has been a real distraction! The boiling weather couldn't have come at a worse time, it made the gym where I sat an exam today, so unbearable, I was on the verge of fainting. However, speaking of prom! I am very excited for prom however, it'll be no magical American prom. Although I presumed that it would be when I was younger, our prom won't be anything like the stereotypical American events- as you can imagine it was quite the disappointment!
With the suprisingly generous budget which my parents gave me for prom, I took it as an excuse and a chance to buy a pair of beautiful heels from Russel and Bromley (couldn't get the photo up sorry), and I was so, so excited to get them as they're simply perfect. I agonisingly looked at the price wrong and after trying them on, falling literally in love with them, they were £125 more (basically double) the price I thought they were! I was actually distraught, I still pretty much am. I'm still not settled on what shoes to wear to prom but I may end up wearing these beauties, although they aren't too 'prommy'.
After gazing at them all weekend, my friends got them for me as birthday present today, I LOVE THEM. As much as I use comfyness as an excuse to buy shoes, they are actually not that hard to walk in, in all honesty. They were £60 from OFFICE, and they definately make up for my heartaching and unreachable Russel and Bromely shoes. They are made of velvety suede and are platforms. Me and Vicki are also druling over Miu Miu foot candy- the chunky platform heels, the daisy chain printed ones and the pearl satin ones. Anyone know anywhere to get these for cheaper? Or anywhere that has decent copies?
On a completely different topic, I am loving the online boutique store KISAMI - so many beautiful items, that aren't conventially pretty, more like unique and eye-catching. Check out the store! My beer fund (my piggy bank is a big beer can that you have to open with a can opener) is yet to be opened, so I only allowed myself to gaze over the sale items. The sale section on the site has actual sale items, not just like £5 off items, and here are a few items which I would get if I could pull them off!
Just clicked preview, I've rambled so much today sorry, just so happy to get back into the whole blogging routine (: Also, thank you so much to Cheryl Clarke for this blog award, check out her blog- really really good!!
Lots of love,
Habin x

Hey Lovely,
ReplyDeleteNo worries I think you misread. I'm about from the 2nd to the 27th, so anytime within those four weeks I'm free! :)
I went to Reading last year, it was so great.
That's so sad about the shoes, but those Office ones are gorgeous :) I can't wait to see photos of your whole outfit!
And looking forward to these photoshoots too.

PS, the model's name is Iza Olak :)
OK awesome, we can make some plans nearer the time :)
ReplyDeleteWell I've always camped quite a lot and I was actually on a two week road trip before hand where we mainly camped. I was with my boyfriend so we had a two-man tent. You don't bring any stove etc or anything as you buy food there. Although I did bring some snacks like crips etc and we went to Tescos one of the days. Make sure your deoderant is roll on etc because if they check your bag it gets taken away from you. I took a pack of 100 baby wipes too as sometimes the showers are impossible. And the most amazing dry shampoo. Get there early for good camping spots! people can go a bit mad trying to grab them lol x
I love two out of the three dresses, I'm sorry but I just hate mermaid dresses and therefore hate Cheryl Cole's...
ReplyDeleteoh i love Anne's dress!

Chery rocks the world!
ReplyDeleteThose shoes will be great for your prom! I feel that you should just be you at your prom and that there isn't really a proper dress code. It isn't all about huge growns and stilettos!
ReplyDeletep.s. in regards to the graduate shows, I was invited to the Westminster one only because I'm a Graduate from there (2007) .. I was also invited to the London College of Fashion one because I have a friend there.. I'm assuming it's more if you know someone.
However, you can always buy tickets too, pretty much all the Universities that show will offer tickets via their websites.
I couldn't see anyone else coment but River Island have done a Miu Miu copy for the swallow platforms with cherrys instead and have a dimante detail like the Miu Miu blouses.

that long sleeved dress is fab!
