Alternative Valentines Wishlist

With only 4 days to go before Valentines Day I thought I would write a little alternative valentines wish list to give my/our boyfriends a little inspiration! It’s really difficult to find truly unique or vintage valentine’s gifts; you have to trawl through masses of tacky teddies, chocolates and roses to find anything with an ounce of meaning. I love the kind of gifts your other half has put a bit of effort into finding, something you can treasure and a present that reflects you as a person.  For all those single ladies, Valentines Day is the best excuse to treat yourself, and with all these cute heart print around who could say no?!

Rock n Roller

I'm really excited as tonight I'm going to see the amazing Willy Moon. If you haven't already heard of him, he's going to be big, remember you heard it here first!

He effortlessly combines rock and roll rifts with a hip-hop beat.... yes together just watch

It’s not just his completely original music style I love, it’s the entire look. Slicked back hair, sharp 3 piece suite and perfect northern soul dance moves.  I’ve always been a sucker for a well dressed, vintage inspired man who dares to be different and Willy Moon is definitely that! 

I'm sorry I've been unable to try my pastel hair colour yet from my previous post, its going to have wait until this weekend. I have some really exciting news coming soon hopefully & this is the reason its been delayed! 

Tumblr Inspirations

All my favourite pictures in one place 

I'm currently loving: 90's grunge, pastel hair and perfect collars 

I read a couple of posts last week on how to get semi permanent tips using art pastels. It looks amazing and apparently only lasts 2/3 washes. I want to get it coloured permanently but as I have to be suited and booted for a work I don't think my boss would appreciate. I'll blog about it at the weekend, watch this space!

Gods Gifs

I've just come across these amazing gifs by fashion photographer Josh Greet. They are really popular in fashion shoots and email marketing at the moment, I love how Topshop have been using them in their social media campaigns and I have been and on and on at our production team to have a go. Maybe these will help persuade them!

You need to click on the images to see them in full action!

bow or not to bow?

Black scarf, red scarf, patterned scarf and white scarf

Up until recently I've worn a head scarf nearly everyday for the last 4 years! I kid you not, without it I feel naked and my outfit always feels unfinished without something tied around my head!  BUT its time to move on, I need inspiration for a new hair accessory and I've put together some of my favourites below, what do you think?!

Kate Moss for MANGO Spring 2012

Apart from wardrobe staples and work wear I have never really bought anything decent from Mango. Their designs are far too classic for me and dare I say it, boring! Although after watching the new Kate Moss campaign I am definitely tempted by the pastel jumper and gold roll sleeved t shirt.

Minty green

I want just about everything on Topshop's new style fix feature, especially the 

mint green cricket jumper! I'm so excited about pay day that I've spent my 

whole lunchtime messing around on Polyvore creating my wishlist.
