Photography~Modern Day Alice

Hi Everyone!

Photography project: Modern Day Alice (Before editing)

My current textiles project is 'Alice in Wonderland' themed, and I have decided to do some photography over the weekend, and this is how they turned out. I will be editing them and will do a blog post om that too but I was quite happy with the results and I've not done a post in a while!

 So the meaning of 'modern day Alice' ( title of the group of photos) is basically young girls in this day and age that are judged of left alone for being different. Alice would have been judged after falling 'down the rabbit hole' for telling lies/ going mad, and these days, going mad isn't and good as the book suggests. There's a part of me that doesn't want to believe that  Alice would be bullied and have no friends these days but i'm convinced that would have been exactly what would have happened. Even though this is a beautiful 9 year old girl (my little sister modeling 'Alice') it would really make no difference and for being 'mad' it would not be a happy place for her to be. So in these photos she reverts to day dreaming, playing alone and reading.
Hope you like these pictures!

So thanks for taking the time to go through these photos and I hope they will inspire you!
Also, it would be sugh a help if you could comment the kinds of editing would look good, I was thinking colour splashes on some, black and white others but I'm still not totally sure, so comment your thoughts, I would appreciate it!

Thanks for reading! 
Byeeee!

Favorite Friday - Chart Music

Hi Everybody!

So I guess this is different for me, I don't generally have a lot of music that is in the charts that I like but at the moment, I really do, I have (slightly shamefully) totally given in to chart music! I haven't fallen out of love with all the other music I have but this stuff is seriously great stuff!








Thanks for reading everyone!

Book Review Tuesday

Hi Everybody!

Probably one off my favorite authors of all time is Judy Blume, I am in LOVE with her writing style and even though she is clearly an experienced writer as my mum used to read her books I still love every single one I read! My favorite is though, by far, 'Forever'. To be honest it's kind of a 14-18 year old's style. It's about a girls "First love, First sex, First heartbreak." That's why I said that sort of age range, as I doubt a younger or older girl/guy would enjoy this type of book! However, I love it, and if you like girly, romantic, cheesy and funny books then you will love this, no doubt! If you are a younger reader you may find this book a bit racy so its best you find out what you are in for!

Thanks for reading!

I Fell in Love With Fall a Long Time Ago

Hi everyone!

So as you may know, I have just recently moved house, hence the lack of posts! Over that time though, it's started to get cold, and as for those of you who know me may know, my favorite part of the year is when it starts to get cold, the leaves fall, and the clothes get cozy. Actually, I especially like the clothes side of things and I have a SUPERRR long wish list for this month. So I have decided to narrow it down for you guys and show you my absolute must haves!

Disclaimer:So this is all extremely expensive stuff, yes, I'm aware of that and no, by no means will i be able to afford it all (sad face) but a girl can dream right?!
