Testing..

As we do, we make sure we swap and take it in turns to practice clicking away and mastering the lighting of a Studio set up. So, Here are Hannah's pictures of me from our studio session, obviously, along with some of my new purchases from the lock in last week in Brighton!  Which may I just add, made my dreams come true as I FINALLY got my 'Pin-ter-oat' (Pink Winter Coat), I have being crazy for one for literally a few months since I saw a spread in Stylist...


Take a look at Hannah's blog to see a different side of the story, she's alright ya know... probably should follow her you know..

Selfie, or not so Selfie

Following on from yesterday's post, whilst we was in the studio I was helping Hannah get her best Selfie for the current Rankin/Hunger magazine competition. Asking for a selfie that "most creatively expresses the person through the medium of instagram – the King of Selfies if you will. And for any budding photographer, or in fact, model, the prize ain’t half bad either." Hunger

There was only one option and that was to make it ALL about the hair and Hannah's crazy personality. I think we did a bloody good job of capturing her, I thought it would be nice to share them here for everyone to enjoy :)

Oh and GO TEAM HANNAH! (Prize is a session with Rankin himself...AGHH)

 I don't think we could of captured Hannah any better than this. Fact.

Studio Style

Well. I don't even know how to begin with what my weeks are consisting of.   WHY HAS NO ONE EVER TOLD ME THIRD YEAR IS LIKE THIS! Okay, they might have done. But still. Wowah.

Me and Hannah decided we needed a afternoon off and to play about with our camera's some more. After finallyyyyy getting some studio time booked at Uni, we decided after our spend up in Brighton at the Student lock in what a better time to practice setting up the studio from scratch and learning ourselves. (More to the point, We didn't have a choice but we achieved it!)

Here's what I took of Hannah,

Dress H&M

Necklace H&M

Shoes New Look

Top Zara

Skirt H&M

Boots H&M

Spider Ring Brighton Lanes

Headband M&S

Coat H&M

Leggings H&M

Sandals Zara

Keep ya eye's peeled, my outfit's will be coming as will there be some more of Hannah for a special entry!!!!  But for now, I am returning to my ever-growing, suffocating mound of third year work.

Bobble hats and Jelly Fish

My sister came down to visit me this weekend, check out the new house and the local bars.. what else is a big sister meant to do! Being the little beauty that she is, we headed down to our new favourite spot on the sea front and began snapping away in a strangely warm October afternoon. While the tide gradually retreated further and further we sunk into the soggy sand, found Jelly fish and mussles and watched some Horse's galloping into the ever beautiful sunset across the sea. 

So here she is, being the babe that she is... Emmy! 

Is it safe to cook mussels that you find at the beach? We wasn't sure but this could be a truly exciting moment in time for me if so..

Because everyone needs a Titanic moment in life.

21

For those who don't know, Friday I turned 21. Yes, 21... I'm getting old, it's official. And my family and friend have no shame in reminding me. CONSTANTLY. But who cares. I literally had the most AMAZING time. 

It all started with Fray coming home from France, which the flight was delayed may I add. We got there in the end though and it only got better from there. Everything was a surprise on the day that I woke up, and I wouldn't have asked for it any other way.

With love; Emma 

My sister couldn't have got me a better present, my very own pair of Vivienne Westwood shoes. 

They. Are. Fabulous. 

For anyone that hasn't had the pleasure of handling a pair, they smell just as amazing as they look, and are really quite comfortable, Emma knowing me oh-to well knew that there was clearly only one colour option. Pink, Pink, Pink! 

With love; Mum & Dad 

For a while now I've been wanting original copies of my Birth month from the year I was born, especially being September. Dad's amazing googling skills paid off once again and I got more than A original copy. Vogue Paris and Vogue UK are now a happy edition to my ever growing bookshelf of dreams. Along with this, a frame with 5 cover's from September 1992. Literally perfect. 

With love; Frazer

"I'll never buy you a ring, never", 3 years of one vow was broken in about 3 seconds. I am not complaining as I have a fabulous little orb on my finger, twinkling away in the lights. 

I really did not know what to expect from Fray and I'm so glad because it was a lovely little surprise! 

Background story! 

We got the train to London and straight in a cab from Liverpool Street, all 5 of us. I had no idea where we was off too, but my parents slipped the taxi driver a piece of paper with the address on it and off we went. Weaving around through traffic and I totally lost all sense of direction within minutes, until we pulled up down a cobbled side street.. next to a Waitrose and was ordered to get out. Doing as I was told I stepped onto the pavement with no idea what was going on.

"Look." Mum

"What?" Me

"Over there..." Mum

(blank expression, jaw drops to floor)

"No.           No!?" Me

"YES! Come on!" Mum

Que, my inability to move and a wave of involuntary tears spring into full flow......

With love; Mum & Dad

I can't even make this post sound anywhere near as amazing as my day was but I hope that you get some kind of idea how lucky I feel and how much I appreciated everything the people around me did.

I love you all so much

At the Beach

I kid you not, life is mental. As you get older, things whirl by. I feel like I'm constantly dancing around in a full on trance and when I break free of it, it's a month or so later. That is the only way to fully describe the way I'm feeling being back at Uni for my final year. Along with a aching in my head and heart after only 2days (not a good start, I know).

Anyway. On a more positive note, living in a pretty little cottage and right on the sea front with a very fab curly-haired friend of mine, we've made a silent agreement on improving our blogging and general photography/styling/graphic skills and are going to help each other through this year. We decided to kick it off with a outfit post bright and early down on the beach.
