april diary

here's april's diary:
too much work, too little social time
 
month kicked off with 'cyprus aid': a solidarity concert with the purpose of collecting food/supplies
for people affected by the economic crisis
 quite humbling to know that it was put together solely by volunteers (even the artists didn't take a fee)
and to see every attendee bringing a bag of goods to donate
 
obligatory beer shots
 
 
even when you work in fashion you cannot avoid numbers and calculations.. sigh..
 
working so late that your car is the last one in the carpark.. with a two-hour drive to get home..
 
no idea of the story behind it, but id like to think that romance lives at the top of this building
(the red text says "Evita I love you", "Evita do you accept?")
 
 ..resigning myself to the fact that this is probably the closest im gonna get to the chloe susannas..
 
blueberry pancakes on a saturday morning with two of my favourite people
 
don't those rubbish bags look like bunnies!? (easily amused)
 
one of our few april outings: an avant garde party on the industrial estate
 
drinkie time!

orange, neon & skulls

the room is now tidy, back to outfit posts!
 
zara trousers &top, stradivarius blazer, julien macdonald bag, topshop heels
and yes, the wedding season is upon us - we attended our first summer wedding last night
(im definitely getting married in winter)
 
i rediscovered my asos skull earrings!
 
skull on the left is wearing my engagement ring as a crown
because after all, whats an engagement ring if a skull can't wear it as a hat?

march diary

-march diary-
 
scored these beauties in a topshop sale
 
went to an interesting pecha kucha night
 
the dressing table is getting on
 
boyfriend's been working hard
 
and i've been documenting!
 
 
soon it'll be done, and my room will no longer be in this mess
 
looks so good
 
this cute little lady had her christening
 
in a beautiful starry-ceilinged church
 
 
in an old mountain village
 
and then it was annoula's birthday!
 
anna's pretty creations are now on etsy
 
 
spring is heeere: flowers and sun
 
we obtained a new/old piece of furniture for the bf to diy
 
i did some fitting-room scouting
 
including stradivarius printed pants and boyfriend jeans
 
 
giggled at the fun graffiti on school walls
 
so amusing
 
then the banking crisis took over everything from the middle of the month, serious drama..
 
so we distracted ourselves with a roadtrip
 
 
..life goes on..
 
and in the crisis, creativity flourishes:
our friends' new studio
 
they left a marker pen for people to leave comments on the window
this was my favourite, lets hope it rings true
