Just sharing a few cheeky street style shots I received of me from my cute lil 'me' day in Bricklane market. So weird, I haven't been to the Sunday Bricklane market in years, and now living just up the road I thought I'd have a stroll through and well damn, it's so good! Was intending on just window shopping but c'mon, it's me, so I ended up purchasing the best metallic/silver vintage bomber for just a fiver.. yes, £5! And whilst having a rummage through I was stopped for a street style picture for the amazing fashion trendcasting website WGSN (photos by Jose-Luis) Y'all know I made a vow to wear more colour, so I'm starting off my injecting little pops here and there, hence the hat, bag and lining of my jacket tehe, I will get there! 

As always stay tuned!

Colour FTW

*WARNING*
The following images may leave you with the conclusion that it's not actually everyday black, wearing colour is a thing and does actually bang..

(I do not own any of these images)

Now I'm not talking any old colour. I'm talking royal blue, postbox red, canary yellow - scary concept huh?! Don't get me wrong, I love wearing all black, but I've noticed my love is a little too much.. Fashion is not supposed to be easy, and I've come to the conclusion I mostly only wear all black because I can't be bothered to create something that bangs as much as all black does but with colour. But I've made a vow, that 2015 is all about colour! So since LFW, I have been scouring instagram for bloggers that often wear colour, or looking to friends of mine who wear colour so well for inspiration. But tbh, through my blogger stalking and inspiration seeking I've found that colour actually almost excites me just that little bit more than all black does, I feel like anyone can do all black and make it work but if you can wear colour and wear it well then damn, you got an eye for style and outfit composition. So I'm pushing myself, and I feel like I can do it, watch this space! I'm gonna have to start out with a wardrobe clear out, as most of what I have is too tempting to just wear all black errday. Plus I really want to reclaim my Thrift Queen status, what with the season for carboots coming back around, and it's the cheapest way to revamp the wardrobe without spending big bucks.

So there, I said it! I vowed to wear more colour and every single one of y'all reading are part of an accountability group to help me succeed, don't let me down! And holla if you know any bloggers or general inspiring colour wearers I can spend the next week/month/year stalking :)

Let me know if you wanna join my newly colourful world too, and as always stay tuned!

Health Goth


..and if you don't know, now you know! 

So most of y'all are probs like me when I first heard the term Health Goth, just what exactly is it?! But it's basically what it says on the tin - gothic sportswear. Think black mesh, lycra, Nasir Mazhar crops, Adidas logos.. you catch my drift. So when I was approached by the amazing upcoming Pullout Magazine, started by one of my incredibly talented girlfriends, I jumped at the opportunity of getting me and my team (#GMxGB check out the hashtag on insta and see what we're all about, I dare ya!) involved for a sassy photoshoot to be featured in the first issue of the mag to be released in May 2015. I can confirm it was the most fun I've had with my girls in a long time! We travelled down with my friend and photographer Sam Travis to Epsom where we shot in my friends studio, and it was just non stop sass, my girls bang so hard ahhh! I vlogged the day to upload onto my Youtube channel when I finally get chance to edit all the footage, and just wanted to share a few cheeky sneak peak shots because they're just too fire not to! 


Follow @pulloutmagazine for first updates on the mag and stay tuned for the website official launch, pending..

As always stay tuned!
