WEEK SUMMARY

I will post more this week but last week was so hectic.

Tuesday I interned with an amazing PR company called Bloody Gray PR. It is amazing with brands like:
Rachel Freire:

Gabrielle Marina Gonzalez and her amazing wedges, harnesses and knee pads:

Bitching and Junkfood:

Also do amazing accessories as well. I found myself delivering a lot of Bitching pieces on location to a Lissie shoot.

Neurotica with their beautiful dye work and prints:

Kumiko Watari and her playful designs:

The best things about the internship are that Becc, Phillipa and Jennifer are really cool and that Rihanna borrows pieces all the time.

MEGA POST

So I've been really busy over the last couple of weeks which is why I haven't been posting but here is a giant post about what I have been up to make up for it.

I assisted on a menswear shoot with Jade on May 26th which was fun. It had really cool accessories and cool trainers:

My favourite pieces on this shoot were the TWO WEEKS pieces below- I have a bit of a feather obsession so a feathered headdress, feather earrings and feather cuff are my idea of edgy accessory heaven alongside studded things. The GAGA glasses were also amazing and coveted.

Then on the 31st May (a bank holiday) I trekked to Woolwich to attempt to do a photoshoot without a make-up artist, hair stylist, photographer, proper clothes or a proper model. Considering the above it came out alright. The theme was supposed to be WORLD CUP/TRIBAL and we got some countries flags to incorporate into the outfits.

This look is my favourite and was mainly put together by me using the Brazil flag.

How to dress for the World Cup

Although I was annoyed at the England result on Saturday, I was very impressed by the Americans. Apart from the fact that a number of their team play for Fulham (the 2nd best team in West London after my Beloved Chelsea); they were faster, fitter and leaner than us.

Katy Perry also scored an outstanding fashion goal when I saw pictures of her fabulous rubber flag dress- Half US flag, half Union Jack (there is almost no need to point out that the English flag is red and white and that we were the only team in the UK to get to world cup). But it works due to the colour scheme.

This dress is very reminiscent of Beyonce's in Lady Gaga's Telephone video

Both ladies are rocking the rubber with ample curves and look amazing.

Katy Perry is winning more in my opinion as she wears football themed fashion very very well and inspires me to try it... when I can afford bespoke clothing.

Her West Ham ensemble was genius and I really want a Chelsea one!!

Before the World Cup I was getting really excited about dressing up properly but, after England's performance I have decided not to. Why would I want to draw attention to the fact that I support such a over hyped team. In this sense I wish I was Spanish or Brazilian during a World Cup because their praise is justified.

World Cup ball skills

Now this is the year of the World Cup and as an avid football fan I am excited. There is always a World Cup fashion spread in one of the fashion magazine. They try to create more female interest in the players' bodies rather than the sport so they have at least one reason to watch the World Cup. Vanity Fair seems to have done the main one this year and have Dider Drogba and Cristiano Ronaldo on their cover.

I am estatic that Dider Drogba is finally getting the plaudits he deserves (I am a Chelsea supporter) and he is kinda hot. Ronaldo is... well hot it you cover his face at the moment. He used to look waayyy better. Maybe its because he's cheapened himself by appearing in the tabloids too often.

The shoot bascially shows several footballers representing their countries in tight flag underwear showing off their ball skills in more ways than one. I was dismayed to see that for England they chose Carlton Cole. WTF?!?! He isn't even that good and might not even be going. They should have put Rooney or Lampard or Joe Cole; Bent even. Anyone but him, but I suppose that Americans don't know much about football so it doesn't really matter. Kaka was there for Brazil but no Messi- the best player in the world. Some of the choices were bizarre- Muntari? Why? No Torres or anyone from Spain or France or Holland.

I was happy to see another Chelsea player i.e. Ballack and I rate Donovan more now he played so well for Everton.

P.S I am supporting England (until they get knocked), Portugal, Holland, Nigeria and of course Spain
