PlaneClothing

Every freaking year we are forced to buy Xmas gifts for those we love. It's not that I don't love my relatives and friends but they are so hard to buy for! If you consider that most of them are men, I am condemned to buy ties and after shave for life!
Story of my life... buying everything last minute and then expecting for things to go well.. It never does!
So this year, I have found the answer to all my Xmas problems and it's called Plane Clothing.

Gerry is a lovely chap who also happens to own PlaneClothing. The brand is based in East London, with Gerry being the main man creating all the designs and handmade prints.
Plane Clothing's designs are mainly places in London. This makes it highly appealing for people like me, who love London but also love industrial-looking garments. In the past, Plane Clothing has collaborated with the Science Museum and other independent retailers (pow wow!) I only say this to give you an idea of how cool the designs actually are. In my eyes, if you collaborate with a museum as a designer, you are halfway there.

See it for yourself.

If you want more Plane Clothing, you can visit their website planeclothing.co.uk , or find them in Brick Lane's upmarket every Sunday or every Friday in Spitalfields.
Want to check out more designs? Join them on twitter  @planeclothing and facebook to receive more updates of upcoming projects. They also have a tumblr with wicked pictures of their designing process.

Search no more, buy some hoods and tshirts and forget about the Xmas hassle.
tshirts are 20 quid a pop while hoods and sweats go for 40 quid. not bad eh?

Popping into Pop!

A couple of weeks ago I went to check out the Pop art exhibition taking place at the Fashion and Textile Museum.
There has never been a time where I wanted so desperately to be old.. Just to have been able to wear all those funky clothes in the 60s!
What made this experience truly special is not the clothes or the smell of old clothes as you walk in. The show does a great job of showing how youth, culture and fashion have inspired the way many things are today and how they were perceived back then.

Freedom, peace, equality !

A skiffle board.. bring it back!!

if my coffee table was a piano..

love!

Revision or Fashion?

Poor ninja! She lives here with me, and she has been revising non-stop. Her exams have turned her into this hypnotised creature that drinks a lot of tea. My ninja NEVER drinks tea...
So, in an attempt to save her from oblivion, we started looking online for clothes and accessories. I assumed that was better than giving her a full bag of Salt & Vinegar Kettle chips..
I am a good friend.



First things first. Bangles! Who doesn't like green? I am so in love with this trend of bold colours. It fills me up inside like a can of Cream Soda.

OMG Shoes! Perfect for the season. Pair them up with denim shorts, a maxi dress, jeans...

Buy a dress to release stress... that's what i say..

Let's be real. The London weather is not giving us any joy, so our wardrobes have been on stand by for months now. Unless you are crazy and ready to wear no tights and a small floral dress in this weather. If this applies to you. KUDOS for bravery. I just stick to denim shirts. Always needed, affordable, easy to wash, comfy...

Topshop Yoke Denim Shirt

If you are going to be carrying revision books around, do it with style and fun. A backpack always reminds me of my childhood years. Oh the 90s...

Topshop Overdye Denim Backpack

And a coin purse made of bubble wrap... to release tension...

The belt. Because most super heroes have one, you need one too. Let's just say belts hold it all together..

Metallic Belt Bershka

There you have it. My version of brain training.

T-Shirts for the Boys

Men love t-shirts.  I love men t-shirts. There is something about the cut, the designs, that makes them appealing to the female audience. Sorry but it's true.
Unfortunately, during a party last weekend I met a guy who happened to be wearing a t-shirt from Topman that I own as well. I mentioned this to him, and he snapped. Maybe it was the alcohol, but he definitely didn't like the comment. I don't understand, what is wrong with females wearing men t-shirts?
Anyhow, I really don't care so I instantly went online and found some that I might buy for myself. Burrrrnnnn.
