The fasination with Skorts

I would like to express my love of the ingenious creation that is a skort. Why? Well at collage shorts are not permitted on the dress code and so me trying to push the fashion limit as much as possible without being kicked out, or worse being made to get changed...decided it was time for a disguise. So without looking too casual, even though in la société de nos jours they have invented smart classy shorts. Here are a pair i picked up in a beautifully market again in the south of Spain, the top is lace puff ball sleeves from H&M and the off cream blazer is from the Hennes collection....

MayDays

On the first Monday of May is May day a celebration that has been going on for years and one in which i always find fantastic. On the third of May this year me and my best friends Elly and Fred, i.e Sam, visited two May Fayre'. With the amazing sweet stall captained by twee brownies to hot tea and cupcakes as the rain fell down, it wouldn't be so without rain. But my favorite of all the bumper cars!! Until next year....

mmmmm paella.....♥

When in Flo

In February half term me and my AS Level art and textiles classes went off to Italy in search of fun and adventure, for purely educational reasons of course. Sadly i had my memory stick (which come to it is very very important) stolen at a party (I know someone took a memory stick instead of my phone/ipod/camera/money!?) So here are some pictures that my friends have emailed me....    Godetevi i miei amici!!!   

Color Crazy

On a lonely and rare free weekend i got in the mood for some snaps and so i decided to get some friends over and play with colour light and movement, I even managed to get make up on the boys...Clearly a secret game of dress up!

Feeling a bit manic now?.....

Summer Times

I was going back through photos from last summer, which might i add was the best summer of my life! I had just finished my GCSE's and study leave was beckoning meaning; 13 weeks off until college! In that time i went to my first festival, Guilfest (fantabulous!), to Cuba, my villa in south of Spain, popped in the pool for a paddle and Holland to visit my dad's family...just you wait...

 Cuba Caliente

Here in the east of the island i stayed in the five star hotel Paradises Hotel not too far from the town Holguin and its famous market. Nearing the end of our stay i succumbed to my love of markets and went picking up the most beautiful crochet dress, sadly in England there will never be weather warm enough and so out come the petticoats! Whilst there a couple of years ago i learnt how to sail and scuba dive, so it was only right to go back to the sea i love it!

Eh, Oh, Espanol 

In the Costa Blanca, halfway between the provenances of Alicante and Valencia near a town called Pego sits my villa, Casa Del Los Cuatro Delfines. Oh the sun if fine and the beach is nearby and from the mountains the rice fields in all their green glory. Here are some moments....

smashing myself a coconut or two....

stopping on a mountain cafe for ice cream Al fresco and finally a chandelier in a posh Chinese restaurants we ate in, i know Chinese in Spain....

Henry Hollander

My dad's father was dutch and we go off to Edam in Holland camping and to visit old friends and relatives. We went the weekend before my 17th birthday and it had been a while, my love of being outside in trees and cycling definitely comes in handy.

Whilst cycling across one of the canal gates i could not believe my eyes when i saw this....
