will it be a yes or no? I'm on top of the world.


          It's almost 2012! Time to say Happy New Year. We always look for a fresh start, new beginnings, it makes us hopeful. This year has had it's up's and downs, more up's than downs thankfully. I've come up with a new years resolution....wait for it. This year I've decided i need to be positive and productive. My giving up sweets and McDonald's never worked year after year. That really say's a lot about me haha. 2012 is going to be a great one, not just a halfhearted happy new year. Challenge yourself  be a bright spark.

Where do i start? This topic is one of which i love not just mainly because i'm interesting in fashion, i wanted to delve deeper (not to be Oprah) but know and understand why people love fashion. Is it because the glossy covers of Vogue takes their eye, because they cant get away from those ravishing shop windows or because its a way for them to escape and be someone else? For my photography project I chose to study fashion photography . I created this blog, went to fashion week taking photographs of the 'fashion pack' then i decided to do something different. Find out what the real meaning of fashion is not just to me, but to you. So I've asked a range of bloggers and friends to write on a piece of paper why they love fashion...

My project concluded that: Fashion gives never-ending hope to creative freedom that allows everyone to have a chance of being unique and show off their own personality. Fashion is their for all of us to have and to use. Fashion isn't something you can have for a second or a minute it lasts a life time.

Hopefully I've made you guys think!

Standing on your own two feet.






This set of photographs is about individualism. It's not about what you wear it's always about how you wear it, that should always be most important and shine through. I love the second photograph, who would think of wearing creepers with shorts. Style shouldn't and cant be set in a rule book. Magazines and blogs are their just to guide and inspire us. There to help us find our inner style, our "inner fashionista" er i didn't just say that. Anyway my moral of today is: personal style outshines a fashion victim (a clothes whore that buy's designer gear) every time. Wear what you feel works best on you, an outfit is made by attitude and self confidence. I've been in bed for the past two days, i'm not really hating. I've been catching up on TV, watching re-runs, eating to my hearts content... and of course sneezing every thirty seconds. I do miss the smell of fresh air. I'm don't think i'm liking being held prisoner in my own home :( . Up and Out. DD

who you are.


 My 18th Birthday has arrived and gone. Tonight I'm going out to celebrate :) , i don't understand why i always write posts in a hurry. Tut tut tut. I leave you guys with this photograph of Olivia Palermo, it's such a weird photograph to me but that's why i love it. She commands such attention which makes the picture so special. Anyway i'm super excited for my birthday and I'll post the photographs soon. Have a good weekend guys, sleep loads :). Up and Out. DD
