All I want for Christmas...

Christmas presents all bought and wrapped (mostly). Definitely gets more stressful as the years go by dread to think what I'll be like by the time I'm 40! Anyway so here is my Christmas wish list (with massive emphasis on WISH).

Miu Miu Vitello tote with stud detail. Really REALLY want this bag (small obsession with bags, really, tiny). Saw it in Selfridges the other day and it actually made my eyes water it's so beautiful! Actually prefer it in the dark brown colour, only £1,200 anyone offering?!



Don't you think this coat would be just perfect for the friend's 21st I mentioned in the last post?! Yeah, me too. Perfect for the farmer style in dark green waxed fabric with sheepskin trims. £215, Topshop.

I know it's sad, but this film is amazing! Give me this and I will be happy :D

Will update when I think of more things, which I'm sure I will

Work work work

With this business of working full time I kind of realised this morning that I'm not entirely sure when I'm going to get my Uni work/revision done. Bit of a problem really seeing as I need the money!

I'm off next week and am going to Bristol for one of my friends 21st birthdays - really looking forward to that, she lives on a farm so we're wearing dresses and wellies :D

For the past few days I've been working on a nightwear range for Evans, with a Collegiate theme. I started off with basic nightwear shapes and then designed the owl print and the college sport print along with the checks using Adobe Illustrator. Here are some of the end results (All images are copyrighted to Formark UK).

Christmas

Finished uni for Christmas now and guess what.. already working full time! It's snowing again and it looks so pretty from inside but I'm not enjoying the cold and slippyness!

So anyway I've started working at a fashion design company in Altrincham so I'll post some of the work in the next week.

Also, watching the X Factor final and then the American Music awards, I couldn't help noticing how amazing Rihanna looked in both!

At the American Music Awards in an Elie Saab dress. I absolutely love everything about the dress.. the colour, the intricate design. How does Rihanna pull of so many different looks?! From glamourous and sophisticated to this...

Not sure how you'd describe this look but either way she still looks amazing

With Katy Perry who also looks amazing!!

I'm not sure what it is maybe the hair???

Handed in

Finally handed in all the design development for the Maison Martin Margiela project! Here are some of the flat drawings for the final collection I decided on

Now that's done, time to focus on the 2 other deadlines for Friday then it's nearly Christmas :D

Little Red Riding Hood?

We had to design and make a dress which includes a rever collar, puff sleeves and a circle skirt. We went for a 50's feel and this was the initial idea we came up with and some of the fabrics we considered

We decided on the red fabric and then made up a toile of the dress

Will post pictures of the final dress in the next week!

Deadlines..

So next week is deadline week and I'm surprisingly calm about it, not sure if that's a good thing or not..

We had a design project for Maison Martin Margiela and after 10 weeks of research and design development these are the final outfits I have come up with

Hope you like them!
