Totally loving shorts at the moment, picked up some vintage Levi's in London yesterday for £10 (bargain!!). Here's a few shorty looks I'm loving from Lookbook. Why is it the Swede's have impeccable style?!!

Love the hand crafted edge of this vm.

How true this is::

I'm due to start back at uni soon so before my friends and I head back off in different directions there is much more fun to be had....

London. Hair::

I was in London the other week when it was sooo hot and I spent most of the day jumping on and off the tube, this style was a quick french plait that was secured with the one and only hair grip I had in my bag. I saw a similar style on fashiontoast recently so thought I'd post my style which I can't stop recreating lately :)

New Wave.Before & After::

Loving the coke dress, where can i get one? hmmmmmmmm...................

THE dress::

So its my big 21st in 3 weeks time and I finally bought a dress. I decided on this little Topshop number, might as well go sequin crazy. The back is mesh and looks hot! can't wait for the party now...

still searching::

I've been looking for the perfect check shirt for so long now, it's the perfect casual staple wardrobe piece, as Ashley proves here. Actually that shirt fits my criteria quite perfectly, I want it...

summers. never. over::

I always feel sad at this time of year when the wind picks up and the temperature drops...

He Got Some Style::

Found this very good looking guy on lookbook, I absolutely love his style. He has a blog aswell which shows some pretty good photography and vocal skills! I do believe he was on Swedish pop idol too, ooooooh!

LFW. debut::

Marko Mitanovski

Hermione de Paula

Dean Quinn

Ada Zanditon

These are the four winning rising stars this season who will be making their debut at London Fashion Week later this month. They have all had internships with top designers in the past which no doubt influenced their amazing design aesthetics.

The colour and draping of Zanditon's pieces are my fave but I love the punchyness of Marko Mitanovski aswell, must be the McQueen influence?!
