Old vs. New: a short history of YYY

Old old old Yeah Yeah Yeahs. This song isn't long enough, I end up listening to it over and over to get the same satisfaction. Like drugs right?


New Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Karen O is amazing. Laced skin tight PVC and studded punk jacket, with somehow the most perfect shade of opaques created.
Also check out the shop assistants behind the counter, they're so bored. Weirdos!

Through the keyhole

FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
i really dont understand designers. how can they come up with so
much ... stuff! they must design outfits like we fart
Anna says:

FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
lol of course, who else. i saw that tv show on him and he just got
a permananet marker, did some drawings and said "go make it" and
they did and it was bloody great.
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
some ppl must get more of a share of the talent than the rest
Anna says:
yeah i think so lol, some people are just average
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
aparantly i was in the cabbage line when they were handing out
artistic talent lol
Anna says:
ha well artistic talent is completely useless
Anna says:
consider yourself lucky
Anna says:
its torture trying to make something look nice, and when you do its
like 'well done that looks nice' no money, no fame
Anna says:
if you were a genius scientist however
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
lol yeah, "its only clothes" ... "NOOO!"
Anna says:
yeah ... some people have the idea some people dont
Anna says:
some people reckon theyre way into fashion and say its about 'a
feeling' or something. but its a technical and analysed form of
art/science like everything else
Anna says:
if you can make clothes that mean something artistically in the way
theyre constructed, then youve got the idea
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
yes
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:

Anna says:

where you think im a mental case
FUCK I just won a load of signed Marmaduke Duke stuff! Today is officially GREAT. says:
yes, copy and paste

Summer Ball(s)

Okay so at our school we have this (overated, overhyped) summer ball after exams. And you have to wear a dress. A proper dress. Do you think one of these would do? (ha, in my dreams)













(Betsey Johnson, Christian Dior, Chanel, D&G, Elie Saab, Giorgio Armani, Givenchy, John Galliano, John Paul Gautier, Malandrino, Nina Ricci, YSL)

I wouldn't mind having one of these on my arm either ;-)

Tonight I will dream about owning a copy of this 2007/2008 issue of Purple magazine. Pictures from Cafe Con Lesley (it's a must-read).

That reminds me don't leave your radiator on too high at night cos you will have weird sweaty fever dreams that make you feel like you're inside a Tim Burton movie :(

Celebratory self-indulgent blog post

The interview I mentioned a few posts earlier was for BA Fashion Management at London College of Fashion. Getting in was a longshot and it really threw shit up for me in the past couple months.

But, with the dependance of grades, I got a place! So fuck; here is a few pictures of me and my braces celebrating.
