So, I've been a bit MIA again...

All my blog posts from this year have started with this sentence I think. But honestly, I do have a good reason. Basically, my laptops not been working properly and I think I may have to get a new one, and the blogspot app for my phone is just pretty much shit. 

It means I missed my Coachella recommendations list and I wanted to do a couple of TBT posts as well, so I've had to post pone those for now. 

As for the recommendations, I didn't really mind missing that one. This years line up wasn't that impressive aside from a few artists so I feel like that would have been quite boring. And tbh, Coachella as a whole this year was kind of a let down.

Usually, the Palm Springs festival kicks off the Summer party season and bohemian fashion comes out to play. I always find myself scrolling through instagram, with severe FOMO and wanting to spend my entire bank balance on beautifully outrageous outfits, just so I can look like I've just stepped out of Woodstock circa 1969.

Honestly, it took me a while to find a collection from 2018 and most of these have come from bloggers, instagramers and youtubers. Nothing wrong with that. It's just usually theres a wide range of A-List celebs wearing their favourite flower crowns, all dressed up after spending hours thrifting through LA's finest parades, just to look like they'd spontaneously thrown an outfit together. 

My personal favourites from this year? Victoria Justice, Sincerely Jules and Vanessa Hudgens. The latter will come as absolutely no surprise to anyone that knows me.

I hope next years line up and outfits will be 100 times better.

Who was your best dressed this year?

We Need To Talk About... Red Velvet.

Another K-pop fashion post. Told you I was in love.

Formed by SM Entertainment, Red Velvet create catchy music, with awesome dance routines, and on top of that, fresh-off-the-runway outfits.
If you read my BlackPink post, you'll know I'm not super into the girl groups in K-pop -the boys are more my thing- but Red Velvet might just be my favourite female's in the k-pop industry.

As they've just started releasing new music, I thought now was the perfect time to write about how incredible their styles are.

We Need to Talk About... BlackPink.

Kpop is something that exploded into my life in the latter half of 2017. 

Thanks to a new friend at work, groups such as BTS, Red Velvet, Seventeen and EXO, have pretty much taken over me.

Although, majority of the girl groups aren't really my cup of tea -I prefer the boy bands within kpop- I can't help but obsess over their style.

Now the Asian fashion sense has been something I've been in love with for a while. Japanese and Korean fashion in particular has always caught my eye.

At the forefront, we have BlackPink. These 4 girls have it all. Talent, looks, confidence and style. Their outfits effortlessly ooze perfection. Whether it's on stage or at an airport, they always look on point.

The most anticipated fashion show of the year has officially aired on TV.

Victoria's Secret took over the Mercedes Benz Arena in Shanghai, China, to showcase their latest collection of lingerie.

2017 marked the year of Karlie Kloss' return to the glitter runway, Candice Swanepoel's first VS walk since becoming a mum and, unfortunately, Alessandra Ambrosio's last year as one of the longest running angels.

Featuring musical guests, Miguel, Yundi, Leslie Odom Jr, Jane Zhang and actual angel Harry Styles, this year was not quite as star packed as usual. But that's a bad thing. Whether you've heard of them or not, every performer did an incredible job.

So what about those segments?

The Balmain collaboration was inspired by the Punk movement in the late 70's and opened up the show with a powerful walk from Candice. Whilst I didn't like the way they had two girls posing together, I liked the fact that it added something different. And Kiwi by Styles? Perfect song choice.

Porcelain Angels was easily my favourite segment. The silky, sheer material of the outfits created gorgeous, flowing capes, and the white and blue colouring blended with the feathers looked beautiful.

Goddesses showcased gold, white silver lingerie with some incredible handmade wings. Lais Ribiro wore the fantasy bra and looked like an actual goddess.

PINK for me was a bit of a mess this year, but Nomadic Adventure brought an abundance of colour and a bohemian flare to the show. NA also saw Elsa Hosk wearing the Swarovski outfit, featuring wings made from flame red crystals.

Overall, I was impressed with this years show. There was so many incredible handmade outfits that it was hard to narrow down to just a few to show her. Now excuse me while I go and sort out a gym membership, because, boy, do I feel like I need one now.

Ahh, Victoria's Secret. Where do we begin with Victoria's Secret.
Founded in 1977, the company has gone on to become one of the largest lingerie brands in the world. And that's mainly thanks to one insane night of the year. The fashion show.
Whilst the first VS show was back in 1995, it wasn't until 1999 that it was first broadcast-ed to the world. And even then, the first two years were only available via a webcasting.
The show has since become one of the most anticipated fashion events of the year.

From larger than life wings, million dollar bras, live performances and star studded audiences, the fashion show is so much more than just a fashion show.
VS hails in some of the most renowned names in the modelling world to participate. From Giselle Bunchen to Naomi Campbell. Karlie Kloss to Adriana Lima. Tyra Banks to Rosie Huntington-Whitley. Many of which have gone on to become Angels (the spokeswomen for the brand if you will)
And if you're not a household name like the aforementioned? getting a gig in VSFS will instantaneously boost your career.

And then there's the performers. Ariana Grande, Justin Timberlake,  Lady Gaga, Taylor Swift, Fall Out Boy. Those are just a handful of names that have played on the glitter runway.

But there's the reason the show runs in the first place. The outfits. Oh my, the outfits.
With around five different segments for each show, the creators and designers have to come up with  an incredible amount of ideas each year. And on top of that? There's the question of who will get the fantasy bra.

After hours of re-watching the fashion shows, I've managed to pick just a few of my favourites to post above. But trust me, there is so many more that I'm in love with.

This years will be held in Shanghai, China and will be broadcast-ed on the 28th November. So check back here to see my opinions and favourite outfits from the show.

We Need To Talk About... Sadie Sink.

I know. Two Stranger Things posts in a row? Part of me is sorry, and the other part is, well, not. 

If you've watched the second season of ST, then you'll be familiar with the feisty, redheaded, skater girl from California, Max. Or Mad Max as she's introduced.

Played by Sadie Sink, the two could not be more different. Max is a tough, tomboy who brings an air of mystery for her new friends. Sadie, however, doesn't play video games or skate, is quite girly, and is a passionate vegan.

The two offer some similarities though. They're both laid-back and carefree, and neither could give a crap what people think of them. Probably, the most important similarity though: they are both completely infatuating.

Before ST, Sadie had starred in The Glass Castle, American Odyssey and had roles in two Broadway shows; Annie and The Audience. But it was a little white lie that changed everything: she could skate.

For someone who's life has literally just been turned upside down, Sadie remains relatively normal for a 15 year old. (Pun intended btw) She loves fashion and dressing up, enjoys eating and sleepovers, and is best friends with co-star Millie Bobby Brown. 

For someone who is only 15, her style is pretty experimental, which is kind of given, since she's probably still figuring herself out. Packing in  lace, leather, high waists and peterpan collars, I personally love Sink's fashion taste. 

Sadie Sink is well on her way to being a top actress and a total style icon.
And I'm very excited about it.

Like the majority of the worlds population, I spent the best part of my weekend binge watching season 2 of Stanger Things.
If you've been living under a rock for the past 365 days, Stranger Things is easily the coolest thing to come out of 2016. There's no argument there. But coming up very close behind, was it's breakout star, Millie Bobby Brown. 

 Aside from Stranger Things, Millie has starred in Once Upon A Time, NCIS and Grey's Anatomy, has been featured in Sia and The XX's music videos, and is signed to IMG models. If that's not enough, she is said to be Raf Simons' muse for his latest Calvin Klein collection, has become a regular fixture on FROWs, she's crazy confident and rocks a ballsy attitude.
Oh, and she's thirteeen. THIRTEEN.

Since ST is set in the 80's, she spends the vast amount of her time in simple t-shirts and jeans or her now iconic pink dress/blonde wig combo, but a quick scroll through her instagram proves that we could all maybe learn a thing or two from her.
Rocking bold colours and quirky prints, her style is polished and poised yet always age appropriate. At events, she wears gorgeous designer dresses, and edges it up by adding, biker boots, converse or a leather jacket.

Back in 2006, thirteen year old me was awkwardly throwing together some insane mix of emo, 90's grunge, and 70's skater looks. It wasn't pretty.
But then I wasn't overnight phenomenon, Millie Bobby Brown. She's definitely not going through an awkward phrase.

I definitely did not think I'd be getting fashion inspiration from a thirteen year old.

#ThrowbackThursday | Gossip Girl

It's official. It's been exactly ten years since the first episode of Gossip Girl graced our TV screens.
Ten Years.
Yeah, I feel old. I remember watching the adverts in the run up to the first season, and making sure I was ready for when the first episode hit. I hooked from the very beginning. The drama, relationships, the love triangles -everything bout this show had me wishing for that ultra-chic life of coolest teenagers on the Upper East Side.

Based on Cecily Von Ziegesar's best selling YA series of the same name, The show was an instant hit across the world. I'm serious. This show was all we talked about on myspace. (see I swear I'm getting old!)

Gossip Girl did a lot for our generation. I believe it had a big impact on social media, I mean, come on, bloggers have a lot to thank GG for. It put Blake Lively on the map for being a total style icon and the actress to watch. It brought us some incredible one liners -I'm Chuck Bass- and of course it brought us Dorota.

But if I'm going to be honest, the main reason we tuned into GG week after week, was the incredible fashion.  Rocking the seasons It-bag and beautiful designer pieces put our school uniforms to shame. Blair and Serena taught me a lot of things about dressing up, and brought me a ton of inspiration along the way.

So, naturally, we need to take a little trip down NYC's memory lane. Expect envy and lust to take over you...

We Need to Talk About... Madelaine Petsch.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last couple of months, you'll know what Riverdale is.
Netflix's take on the Archie comics, is dark, twisted and alluring. Imagine if Gossip Girl and Pretty Little Liars had some crazy, badass lovechild. Yeah, you've basically got Riverdale.

I know, I know. I'm a little late to the party. But I binge-watched the entire first season in under 48 hours. If that doesn't tell you how good this show is, then I don't know what does.

Upfront and centre, is the insanely gorgeous Madelaine Petsch. She plays Riverdale's resident scheming bitch, Cheryl Blossom, who could easily be played off as your stereo-typical, high school mean girl, but Petsch brings complexity and spice to the Queen B. Think Blair Waldorf and you're right area.

South African born Petsch, is uber-stylish. Whilst Cheryl is more made up and glam, Madelaine is more into comfy and casual clothes when off set. And when she does dress up, it's a little more contemporary than her character's. She's not afraid of wearing reds and oranges -something redheads tend to steer clear of. Madelaine's trademark red hair, porcelain skin and big lips makes her look like a real life Jessica Rabbit or Poison Ivy.

 Also, we need to talk about her incredibly, luscious, long locks of red hair. I have the exact same colour hair and my ultimate goal is to have it look like hers.

Can you tell I have the biggest girl crush on her?!

#ThrowbackThursday | Michelle Tanner

A couple of weeks ago I made a We Need To Talk About... for the Olsen twins. But since I'm currently binge watching Full House on Netflix, it seemed appropriate to make this post. 

Michelle Tanner was the twins first and, arguably, best role, that they shared from 1987-1995. 

Despite only being 8 when the sitcom ended, the twins were household names and already two of Hollywood's hottest property. Now, they're busy running their fashion empire in New York and have quit acting. 

Unless I didn't make it clear in their WNTTA blog post, these two are major fashion inspo for me. But whilst binge watching Full House, I noticed their fashion choices have always been completely on point. Say hello to scrunchies and overalls galore! 

It's weird to think of  a 5 year old as a fashionista, but Michelle was full of badass attitude and had a spunk to match. She was sassy and just crazy cool. 

Her outfits were quirky and cute, but remember that Uncle Jesse was her bestie, so of course she threw in a little rocker edge sometimes. (actually maybe I'll do a #TBT for Jesse -his outfits were amazing!)

P.S. I've decided to start another series, #ThrowbackThursday, where I talk about fashion and styles I love from previous decades. let me know what you think!
