L u l a = L o v e

L u l a !
L U L A !
...L u l a !(In picture: my new bag, that I wanted to post here as I love it! My new white horse figurine that amuses me, so I needed to post is here...and...LULA!)

Yesterday I bought Lula issue number ten!
I was so excited, I remain so excited!!
I don't think I would need much else in my life if I worked at Lula, it's more than my dream job.
It's my dream life.

Every time I open Lula I feel instantly well, complete. It is the best fantasy world that could be imagined!
This edition is all about the 1970's characters of Strawberry Shortcake, with seven different covers being available. Each cover has a model dressed as one of the characters---I chose to get the "blueberry muffin" cover.
Continuing on from edition nine's theme of redheads, edition ten is all about freckles and dots! Lots of editorials with polka dots, editorials with pictures of freckled child stars of the past and an interview/showcase with the kitsch artist (I say kitsch lightly, as insane would be more appropriate) Yayoi Kusama.
There's also an editorial about Joanna Newsom, which I am very excited about! I love her!

P. S
I have changed the header, I felt it was time for a change...
Do you know who else thought it was a time for a change?


One of my favorite songs ever.

Oh this brings me back to my Smiths' phase in year eight.

when I was a little girl, I always dreamt that my name was Marina

S e e - - -
Right now,
more than ever,
I want to return to the sea.
I want to let the water consume me,
understand me,
and make me happy like it does.
I want to be like the gentle orca,
that only wanted a friend.
I need to go underwater,
so I can catch my breath.



a u r e v o i r,

mui meow

M u i M e o w !
( I would say 'pardon the pun' but really, puns should never be pardoned)

A little while ago I remember seeing Chloe Sevigney in a beautiful Mui Mui creation (the one in the picture above to the right) on some red carpet or other. I made a mental note to look up the Mui Mui collection that created such an amazing dress. I forgot. It wasn't until I saw a photo of Daisy Lowe in another dress from this collection that I remembered to have a bit of a peruse. I was not dissapointed!
Anything that boasts shirring, ruffles, collars, jewels and cats is automatic amazement in my books! The detail is just so beautiful. This is also one of the most creative collections I've seen in a long time. Not only does it experiment with different tactile elements in the form of blending embellished jewels, starched cottons and crazy patterns...but they have created a really quirky, new silhouette - and executed it perfectly!





au revior!
oh, and wish me luck in my exams that start tomorrow! eek!
Now here's a song that I feel is more than appropriate for this post.
the cure- love cats

the first day of autumn!

A u t u m n ! autumn! A u t u m n ...

I am so excited because today is the first day of the most amazing dressing season of the year!
I can't wait to wear jumpers like these!
oh, and wear some autumn leaves in my hair too.



au revoir!

muses !

♥ T e n e s s e e + A l e x a !

I'm dealing with pretty serious new found love for Alexa Chung and my favorite, Tenessee Thomas recently. My lovely friend Nush gave me the link to an amazing Alexa tumblr, that has been inspiring me non stop!
After looking at countless photos of alexa and Tenessee, I have come to the conclusion that their relationship is so much like that of mine and my best friend Kate's. We tried to cast ourselves as either Tensessee or Alexa, but came to the conclusion that we should both be both.
Enjoy the eye candy and the clothes! ah! As Rachel Zoe would say...I DIE.





au revoir! Have a lovely weekend~
