This girl is BACK! For anyone that know's me will know life is good right now. For a multitude of reason's which I shall restrain myself from rambling on about for the next few minutes of writing this.<br />
<br />
This is time to continue in a way that I feel is finally right to be back here and writing. I didn't want to be blogging half heartedly and using this as an emotional crutch for the last few months, hence the absence. But life is good......<br />
<br />
<br />
<i>70s.</i> This is it. I think I have finally found my calling in my fashion life. Like, I literally should have been born 50 years ago to have made optimum use of round two of this proper sassy decade. Okay, that sounds very lusty BUT have you SEEEEN some of whats going on right now?!<br />

The cross over of textures, print and cuts is just - ughhh - to die for. There is literally something to suit everyone with the sort of things you are seeing on the high street at the moment.<br />
<br />
<i>Key obsessions:</i><br />
§ Fringing<br />
§ Flares<br />
§ Lace up knee highs<br />
<br />
I'm pretty sure I'll be sharing some of my pieces with you very soon if you haven't already seen bits on my insta! (bpdowdell)<br />

But yesterday was the first day of GFW and after slogging our guts out with portfolios, money and even carrying obscure metal objects (a mans job may I add) up stairs into the Old Truman Brewery - Northbrook is there! On the first floor at stand 17, we have our little corner with a showreel playing some of our best work, including my group Fashion Film from last year (Antigen) which was highly commended at the BFC a few weeks back! </div></div><div><br></div><div>So anyway, as it's been a little while since a outfit post and we was starving yesterday, me and Hannah took a trip down Brick Lane for a much deserved Beigel.

It's taken me far too long to get around to doing this post but, once again I'm going to play the 'you will not believe HOW crazy life has been' card... But I'm using it anyway! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
About a month ago I went to the Jean Paul Gaultier <i>From sidewalk to catwalk</i> exhibition at the Barbican, it. was. <b>amazing.</b> Stupidly, I assumed and didn't check in advance about photography, and for once - the one time I didn't have my camera - You could take photos. Typical, I know, so I apologise for the grainy images as all I had was my iphone (even a decent camera wouldn't do it just though to be honest).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Back at school, during my A levels, Gaultier was a main inspiration to my textiles coursework and has always been a designer that I have respected the work of. The 'bad boy' of French Fashion as he's known just fascinates me with the intricate detail, thousands of hours put into one garment and even the risky and fleshy garments. I honestly cant see why you would dislike this breton wearing man! To me, he's the french McQueen..</div>

I absolutely adore this image. I cannot explain why, its simple, saucy and just down right perfect. </div>

I could go on and on about what I saw and what I loved and bombard you with image, but I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't been. I found it truly inspiring and perfect, even my mum thought it was brilliant and she's been dragged along to some weird things that she didn't always appreciate! </div>

Please, I beg you, If you have not yet been, you must go - even if you are not a massive fan of this genius' work, just go. The curation, the technology and the facts are just astounding all together. And take you camera.. just go. Now!!!!</div>

Life's all a bit over the shop at the moment. I don't really know what's happening but I'm just making the most of trying to enjoy the nice bits of weather we're having and my last few weeks at The Cottage with Hannah. We've been yolo'n a bit and just enjoying things when we can.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now, these trousers are a bit of a issue. It's a love hate relationship. I love the style and trackie-ness BUT, I wish they were high waisted. They would be so much more amazing and a much more prominent piece to my wardrobe. However, they are not. So I have to improvise and find myself taking them off after a few hours. I shall continue to persevere... Or maybe I'll just start looking for a high waisted pair to fully satisfy my needs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
At the rate I'm going, I am literally going to turn orange. But I love this little top, I've been eyeing it up for weeks and the Easter Bunny <i>(aka Mother & Father D)</i> got it for me along with a hugeeeeee bunny (chocolate of course). </div>

I need sectioning, it's official. Or I need my bank card confiscated, one of the two. This week I have gone crazy, what with my last <b>ever </b>student loan and grant hitting my bank account and everywhere seeming to be jumping on that with discounts for students, its SO hard to resist. Or not to resist in my case. </div>

A girl's gotta do what a girls gotta do though and when River Island presents itself with a 20% off opportunity you have to seize life by the horns and frantically buy anything your little heart desires!!</div>

To be fair I have been wanting a proper pair of high-waisted 80s style jeans for ages now. I keep mentally making outfits in my head revolving around them, until now! R.I's 'mom' jeans are da bomb! Sadly, theres no knee rips going on but, give it a few months and I'm sure I'll be reinventing these bad boys. For now, I'm off to the 80's. </div>

Okay. I feel like we've all been here with me saying 'Im sorry, I've been so busy - blahblah blahhhh'. <i>But I have. </i></div>

We just had our two week break at Uni, which was much needed due to the stress that built up with our Final Major Project we handed in. I shall blog about it eventually as I was living in a world of all things Pink whilst working on my brand 'Pink Popcorn'. But for now, more importantly. Back to the fashion!!!! </div>

Yesterday wasn't a particularly sunny day down here on the coast but the sun was so warm when it was there, it was a battle all day with the haze that was setting in but seems student finance is in and I have OBVIOUSLY been to the shops already...... I braved it. <i>Your welcome :)</i></div>

Sometimes I go in H&M and I literally cannot believe the pricing of items; it's brilliant and makes it impossible to resist. For example, this oversized maxi... £7.99. <b>£7.99!!!!!!!!</b> I know, bargain. And it is literally so comfy, I love the raw side seam split gonna be a main contender for Summer Beer garden sessions. There are plenty more posts to come with all my new buys!</div>

Today's been a good day. It's sunny and I was wearing orange! Two of the best bits about the weather improving. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I got this jacket in Zara last year and it's not something I wear regularly but when I do, I always love it. You can't really go wrong with something from Zara! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I don't really have much to say for myself at the moment other than, things are crazy as always! However, if you do want to see what I am doing with my life have a look at my Final Major project I have been doing at @pinkpopcornvm and www.facebook.com/PinkPopcornVM. </div>

The last few days I have been obsessed with my white blazer. I bought it last year for a absolute bargain in Next's discount store, Choice. You can't go wrong with a little rummage, especially when you find pieces like this that'll forever be dragged out of my ma-hooo-sive wardrobes. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am fully embracing this sunshine and I want to literally curl up on the beach with a cup of tea and just toast away, I know, it's still a little chilly but it's SO tempting. Whilst I resist all temptation, I shall just continue to make the most of the beautiful backdrop. Can't believe I only have a few month's left of this front garden we have down here. With all the stress and aggravation of final year, we're pretty lucky really.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Happy Sunday and here's to another week that'll fly by with hopefully sunny rays!!! <i>(Mainly because I forgot my coats back in Essex and will freezeeeee otherwise!!)</i></div>

Another day, another distraction. My life wouldn't be what it is if I wasn't finding a way to prevent myself from doing what I should be. Ah well, 5 weeks till the next deadline so I'm sure all can be forgiven, after all....ITS MARCH! and the sun is shining for like, the 4th day on the trot. Surely that's worthy of a little outfit post and a song to most certainly put you in the summer loving mood.. after all, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2MqHvbvhSg">The sun is shining, and the weather is sweet.</a></div>

I've had this top a couple of weeks now, with the intention of wearing it during my internship. However, as I was getting down and dirty, I thought better of it. So, today it got a fully deserved debut in the Worthing sunshine.</div>

It has been far too long since I've graced the beach of Worthing in the sun or even been blogging. Although I had two weeks off Uni and was absent from my little photography Buddy, I was interning and also going insane finishing a project off. But, another one down and I'm back to blog. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got this top weeks ago, but just haven't got around to wearing it, but waking up and seeing the sun shining, with not much to do, it was <i>obviously </i>the day to finally wear it! It's crazy to think it's only Feb, but when the sun shines, it actually has some warmth to it.. I cannot wait for the Summer and some time to actually breath! Stress is not good for me... It's time to get this over and done with and get myself back on track!! </div>

So, I know I'm not the worlds best blogger, but I do love to do it, and well. I'm slacking again. I know, I know. I keep saying it and doing nothing about it but, can I just at least explain WHY I have been so slack. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
1. I am well busy with Uni work, but I know it only takes two minutes,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
but 2. Most importantly, IT IS SO WINDY!!! I do not lie one tiny bit when I say, Worthing is a death trap of gusts at the moment, I can't walk out the front door without nearly being blown over, a seagull fly at me or groups of rowdy/disheartening and slightly crackers men observing in the distance. So. There it is, please... come see Worthing in all its Glory!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Anyyywhoo. Today we managed to brave it, and I've been saving this little number for when the sun actually came out as in my heart of hearts, SUMMERS COMING! (after the snow that is inevitably gonna come sooner or later) But yeah, I saw this online on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Retail-Therapy-Fashion/375779995861174">RTF</a>'s facebook page and instantly knew I needed it in my life. And the wonderful ladies there know their customers too well and pointed my mother in the direction of it when she popped in a few days later! So thanks guys!</div>

Recently, my love for <i>SJP/Carrie </i>is becoming dangerous. I want to be her. But who doesn't, right? Not gonna lie, I've not always been a fan, but.. Things change! So today I have channelled my inner Pat Butcher/Carrie Bradshaw 80's vibes to the surface for all to see. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It isn't a usual 'me' shirt. Although, I've come to the conclusion in the last few day's I don't really have a style, and I don't think I care. Sometimes it's good to be the unexpected anomaly in life, and I would much rather that than meeting constant demand and expectations. So this is the latest experiment. And I. Am. Liking it!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I know I seem crazy to be bare-armed on the bitterly front of Worthing's seaside, but Fashion. I respect you THAT much!!!!!!!</div>
<br />
<i>Power to the 80's!</i><br />

I think the last post, 100%, jinxed the weather. Deepest apologise. But wowah, Was it a chilly start to this morning! It's days like this, that beautiful backdrop we use for our posts, is a total female dog and the icy sting is certainly NOT your friend on a Monday morning. <i>Just saying....</i></div>

So it was a wrap up in my <i>hug-a-mug</i> beast kind of day today and embrace the sun attempting to escape the prison of clouds overhead. Looking back, I'm not sure how much of a fan I am of my shape in this look, I'm feeling a bit Kim K in the hip department, but I like to think that I am all Woman now. <i>(This only satisfies my inner sadness until I reach tea and chocolate)</i></div>

There's not much more to say at the moment other than I'm drinking tea, eating apple crumble and most certainly avoiding my Dissertation once again. However, I am also in deep thought of what to wear for my next post as there are still items unseen from Christmas! <i>Sorry guys </i><br />

I really do dislike black. And regrettably I have let it dominate my life and wardrobe for a little too long recently. I've had enough of Winter now, and in my books, as Christmas has well and truly been left behind for another 300 odd days, I can start to think about Spring.. and very soon Summer! WOOOO!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So with my own personal mission in mind, to back off of the black, I have well and truly sugar coated myself, and hell. There might even be a new bargain or two in there! <i>Of course...</i></div>

For several reasons I have currently put myself on a virtual 'naughty step'. For starters, this is my first post for this year, secondly for neglecting my blog in the run up to the new year. And thirdly, well. It's pretty obvious I've been shopping...<i>again.</i><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I could </span>say that my New Year resolution is to shop less, but I would be lying (x2), purely for the fact we ALL know I shall <b>never stop</b> shopping, even if my life depends on it and secondly, the whole <i>'New Year</i>' <u>thing</u>, not my thing this year. Not one bit. So there. That's my excuses, lets get back to what I do best when Uni work needs avoiding and I need to just be me.<br />

I only briefly dipped my toe into the sea of sales this year, but the few pieces I managed to grab we're most certainly worth it! Recently, I've felt really mellow and kind of just, drift along in my own little world not taking much notice of things around me. This is the best way to be when tackling sale shopping, I couldn't have cared less! Very weird. </div>

This totally reflects my life at the moment, I find a seat and just sit. In my own little crazy world, observing, taking note and just staring so far ahead, I can literally lose site of myself sometimes. Snap back to reality and here's the last 5 months of University. Wowah. <u>Where</u> has my life gone?</div>

<br />
<br />
I'll be back sooner this time, <i>Promise</i><br />

As you'll know, it's final year craziness in my life at the moment. As part of a Competition unit we have had to undergo to build portfolio work and give us opportunities to meet industry standards. I have now successfully completed two Competition briefs with one still to go. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My latest entry was for Harrods Star of tomorrow; Stylist. With the deadline being Monday I feel like I can finally share with you my hard work. Im not going to lie, I stressed big time as I was so determined to do well and I did have a mini melt down and decided to reshoot, so I really do have to thank the patience of my model and makeup artist for sticking with me and letting me achieve what I did.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I adopted the theme of Lady in Red as it is rapidly becoming the new black and I kept seeing things online regarding the colour shift that inspired me. It's a striking colour and I think everyone can channel it one way or another. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the competition is directed at styling, I wanted to ensure the presentation of my final layout was also stylistically good. I decided to post it to the BFC offices at Somerset House rather than pinging it across in a email. With the dedicated support of my Mum she helped me get together all the pieces that I needed to make it the best I possibly could, whilst also stopping me from going completely insane and supplying a steady stream of tea.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So here it is. I hope you like it! Fingers crossed.. </div>

<br />
And this isn't a jolly post of me going, <i>And I finally have found the perfect one!</i> No, this is me saying, I still need and want one in my life badly, and that I handed in my first final project at Uni today so I am deserving this little break of trawling the internet in hope I find the perfect answer.<br />
<br />
I've found a few close contenders, but <u>Nothing</u> is hitting all my buttons, other than a few beautiful yet painfully price ones.<br />

Today, we handed in a Draft of our current project.. I have to admit. I feel like I have just finished for Christmas.. <i>I can dream.</i> Still another week to go of Uni for 2013, and then next year, I graduate. <i>Oh god, oh god.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
I felt like mixing it up a little today, I couldn't wait to wear this stunning little skirt from Retail Therapy Fashion, click <a href="http://www.retailtherapyfashion.com/">here</a> to see some more of their stuff! Christmas is coming and I can feel that this little scalloped edge, sequin skirt will be making many appearances. I feel so Great Gatsby, even though I still need to watch it, it's very on trend... Believe me ;)<br />

So, this is a rather special post. After 150 religious posts here at Fashion Against Nudism, I have been asked to blog for <a href="http://www.retailtherapyfashion.com/" target="_blank">Retail Therapy Fashion</a>. I feel very lucky to be doing this as they're a local shop to me, and many-a-time sneaked something new home. </div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
In my previous post you would have seen my white tartan dress which is also one of their little numbers and now, we have a new shift dress. This isn't the normal cut of a dress that I would go for, usually I'm all about the figure hugging stuff, but I'm actually loving having something a little looser. </div>

I love the three quarter length sleeve's, in this weather it <i>is not</i> about having too much flesh on show and fa-reezzinnggg every time you step outside! So the extra arm length is fab, today I doubled up with a long sleeve top, sexy, I know. But so necessary. <i>(It's all about the detail zip!)</i></div>

Today was just a little casual look, but I'm sure you'll see this number featured again for a more sassed up evening approach! Thank you Retail Therapy Fashion for letting me blog some of your lovely stuff and you should ALL go to their <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Retail-Therapy-Fashion/375779995861174" target="_blank">facebook</a> page or <a href="http://www.retailtherapyfashion.com/" target="_blank">website</a> to see the new thing's that have just landed in store!</div>

It's a random day, a bit like my life. All a bit of a jumble and making it work where possible, that's how I see this outfit today. Don't be fooled by these bright blue, beautiful skies that we're being treated too at the moment. There blimin' bitterly cold. </div>

I had enough of getting pee'd on every time I left the cottage for Uni with a hoodless coat so I decided, it was 100% necessary to buy a parka. There really wasn't another option, I promise you, my umbrella literally snapped and now jingles its metal arms with every step I take. </div>

I digress. Primark was my saviour. for £28 I got all this length, faux fur and a bit of a sheep-type lining. I cannot tell you how cosy it is. Honestly, I was shocked for a <i>Primarni </i>fix. But thanks guys! </div>

This post was shot last week and I just haven't got around to uploading it. But I've been wanting a new pair of converse for ages, and these little lovelies are what my parents brought me back from DC back in October. They haven't had much wear as the weather's been a little crabby but, on this day. Hello, Sunshineee. It was time they made an appearance! </div>

I opted for a change of location when doing a quick outfit post yesterday. I love our front garden of the beach but there comes a time where sea and stones start to take their toll. So instead, I ended up with concrete and squirrels. </div>

I bought this Kimono back in September before I did my week with River Island interning, although I don't think its actually made it onto the blog yet.. Life's still crazy and I don't think it's going to change much during this final year but I feel as if I'm starting to take it in my stride more (I have now officially jinxed myself), I've come to a conclusion though. And the show must go on.</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
I wanted a little kimono so long before finally committing and paying the price I did for this one. Im so glad that I waited as the beading detail and velour leopard pattern are stunning. However, Im not gonna lie, the tassels are a nightmare and have had many moments with a bead avalanche. </div>

I'm not a black lover and I'm seeing far too much in my wardrobe for my liking, but I think it's suiting my mood for now. I shall not give in entirely and I WILL get away from it. <i>Long live Summer! Viva Colour!!!!</i></div>

Meet the local resident, I was genuinely afraid. He had this look in his eye as he scampered closer of 'I am going to lunge so hard at you!!' Proper cutie though!</div>

It's getting chilly down here and I'm feeling like I'm getting some Scottish roots forming that I don't actually have.. I treated myself to another new bag thats too cute for me to even begin to describe. My second rucksack of the year and I'm still loving it, I got this one in Debenhams, Red Herring! What with that and my faux fur body, Ay, I'm well on my way.</div>

We only narrowly missed a tremendous down pour on this day. Winter is so inappropriate with its unplanned monsoon's and wearing Red suede boots is really not a good idea, but, all in the name of fashion, we shall not be beaten! </div>
