What are you waiting for...
I never seem to have much free time these days, what with my internship and Cellardoor. So I love spending my Sundays curled up under the duvet, catching up with all your blogs with a cup big old mug of tea. I used to spend hours swapping new music with my old uni housemates and loved finding a new band to become obsessed with. However, working and commuting have taken over my life. The radio at work has been blaring out this little tune recently and after having it stuck in my head for the past few weeks, I've finally found out who it is. They're a band called Neon Trees and the track is 'Animal. I can't help but sing along whenever I hear it.

Sweet Disposition
I have a love/hate relationship with Vogue, but when I came across this editorial I couldn't help but smile. I love all the pastel colours and it makes me want to devour a packet of Love Hearts!

Style paparazzi three
It's that time of the week again, so I've dug deep into my folder of inspiration and pulled out this cracker. I'm a sucker for a chunky knit, especially when it's this lovely cranberry colour. I really like the textures of the the leather shorts, with the knit and finished off with some wedge booties. [These are my saviour. I love a high heel, but sadly cannot walk in them! ] I've just bought some leather shorts, so can't wait to pair them with a cosy jumper for the daytime. I also love how this girl has cinched her cardigan in with a belt with a cute bow.
What's been inspiring you this week?

what katie did next
The lovely Katie sent me this little beauty in the post the other day. Katie had a little giveaway on her blog and I manged to win one of her hand painted cards, along with a lovely little note inside. Her name is Clara, and Katie and has even inscribed my name in the scroll in a tattoo style. It reminds me of something a sailor would have have inked on their arm.
You can also just about see my new purchase from this week. I'm a little obsessed with peter pan collars at the moment, so couldn't resist this little stripy number from New Look.

Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face
I love these photo's of Alexa for the New York Times. It's got me on the search for the perfect grey jumper.

two door cinema club
Well if we're going to be techincal about this, it's only actually one door. I spotted this little beauty over on Topshop's blog and have fallen in love. The Sol Cinema is the worlds smallest solar powered movie theatre and isn't it cute. Not only is it just a pretty face, it's also very eco friendly. Result.
The Cinema travels around the country showcasing excerpts from their library of comedy, music and inspiring short films. If only I had a good enough reason to invite them to one of my parties. Inside there's enough room for eight adults, and even comes with your very own usherettes dressed in retro fringed jackets.
So I guess good things really do come in small packages!

style paparazzi two
So this marks my second street style post. As I said in the last one, my folder is full to the brim so it was hard to pick which one to share next. However, this colour popping blazer calling out at me and I couldn't resist this girl. This is such a simple outfit with dark denim shorts and white shirt combo which only makes the jacket shine out that little bit more.
My favourite colour is green (maybe it's something to do with the fact it's the meaning of my name?) and it also happens to be the colour of envy, something I definitely have after seeing this girl.

Just look at that perfect red pout, effortlessly placed trilby and not to mention that hunk of a designer bag on her arm.

P.s I've had all theses images on my laptop for so long, and their birthplaces are but a distant memory. So, if they happen to be yours, just let me know and I'll pop a credit on.

birds of a feather
I really love recieving handmade presents, and last year for christmas the boy framed one of his prints as a surprise. It had been something he had been working on for his final year project on the very cheesy subject of love, and this was my favourite page. I had it in storage at my Nan's house whilst I moved rooms and I've only just managed to bring it home, where it now has pride of place on my wall.

swim until you can't see land
These images have been floating around the blog world for a while but I felt the need to share them again with you. I have a huge passion for magazine design and geek out each month on all my favourites.
I have a love/hate relationship Vogue, and often feel they just don't hit the mark. However, after seeing these I got a little excited. Some clever girl (shrubrub to be precise) has super-imposed all the covers of Vogue this year on top of each other! I think the end effect looks rather beautiful, much like a fiery angel?
Here are some of my other favourites...
