First Class Honours!

Yes I graduated, finally (after an unusual wait from uni) it took place in the Southampton Guildhall, and it really was an amazing moment.

My Parents had bought me some brand new Christian Louboutin heels, which were just perfect for a fashion student graduating! The day was fairly nerve-wracking but once I was up on stage collecting my certificate, it all became real! The Dean who shook my hand even asked me how I walked in my heels!

My great Daddy & I...

My best friend 'Bradders' from my course, she's a real superstar!

PHEW! I did it!

My House mates throughout my course, we supported each other, laughed together and went mad together through final major project times. Love you girlies!

My best friend in the whole worrrrrrld (ever)... :D

As I went to return my gown, I walked back down the fashion corridor for the last time and noticed they had put my Final work up for other students to look at, I still cannot believe how quickly those three years went!

Now graduation was done, there was only ONE thing left to do... party.

See my next blog 'The after parties of graduation' for the wild side ;)

My 22nd Birthday!

Well I actually turned 22 in November, but I have been so busy lately (lots of good things to show you!) I owe you guys lots of fun blogs. So I'll keep it quick and easy to read so you can catch up on everything...

My 22nd, my friends and I got glammed up and headed over to Leicester Square, darted around a few quick bars to get into the mood and then finished the evening at the amazing Penthouse nightclub, just around the corner... When you enter the club, you are met by a lobby area, in which you are guided to an elevator, which takes you up to the 6-7th floors! The views of London were just incredible, and the night was brilliant! (With lots of Sambuca!)

My friends bought me lots of lovely presents, including; yummy pink champagne, jewellery and even baked me cakes!

Then every girl needs 1 (or 2 parties) to celebrate so that weekend, on the Saturday I had another cheeky celebration. This time we went into Kingston and partied even harder (!)

They are so tall, it's getting ridiculous, or I am just very small (probably the latter! ;) )

My lovely friend attempting to get in my fluffy pink onesie,

because that is totally normal for a 6ft tall guy....

Overall, it was an amazing birthday, thank you to all my lovely friends & family!

Halloween!

So I take Halloween like everyone else.... well maybe I don't!! haha!!

I decorated my entire house with spiderweb, cauldrons, pumpkins and lights! I carved two pumpkins and got all dressed up!




The first night, we had a party celebrations at Shivani's flat in Clapham and then headed over to Shoreditch.

Then the Saturday night was at the Hippodrome in Kingston, where I was an evil rag doll. (yes they are my real eyes, make up can be very clever!)





We had so many trick o treaters I couldn't believe it! Got so busy, had to even send Dad & Mum out for more provisions!! Yummy treats for me though! hee hee!


HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Lovely nights in London

My gorgeous friend Yasmine finally flew back from Dubai the other week and therefore we headed into London to celebrate. We weren't sure where we were headed as it was so spontaneous, so after searching high and low for a car parking space, we ventured into Embankment.

We first went to All Bar One in Embankment. There was a huge light made from hundreds of wine glasses and the cocktails were lush!



We had our first drink of the evening there and left to head onto another place of fun! After crossing the Thames (and making every minute a photo opportunity) we headed to the Archduke bar.



There was jazz music, a grand piano and a brilliant atmosphere. We had the perfect night time view of London and gossiped late into the night.

Supper in Shoreditch!

Last night was the second time the LCF crew all went out into London again! This time we visited Pizza East in Shoreditch High Street and all I can say is I HIGHLY recommend it!!

The atmospherics of the restaurant were brilliant, with the old rustic feel of real Italy coming through in their weathered wooden tables and chairs. The lighting was low and the staff were very friendly.

Although it had the typical vintage Shoreditch feel, there was a contemporary air about it, with the young and fashionable clientèle flocking through the doors.

Not only that but the food was like a pizza I have never tasted before in my life! I had a pizza of simple tastes; Buffalo Mozzarella, sweet tomatoes and basil, and my taste buds were in heaven!

Overall, I would literally give this place a 9/10 (because hey nobody can be perfect right, and that is what adds the character!!) I will be back there in no time!












Also, for all of you party addicts out there, Pizza East has that covered too! Down the grand vintage stone staircase is a club called Concrete which gets busy from around 10pm. Filled with eclectic tastes and dancers, it is definitely where the after party is at!!


So get yourselves down there; 56, Shoreditch High Street, Bethnal Green Road. :)

Tiger Tiger London!

So, this was the first main event I went on with my new friends from London College of Fashion MA course. We went over to Tiger Tiger, straight after our lecture and hit HAPPY HOUR.

Could be seen as a good thing... haha! It was so nice to properly meet everyone, out of the classroom environment and we all had so much fun, we will be sure to arrange this at least once a week!

These are just a few photos of the absolute fun that we had :) I love you all guys!

Ice Ice Baby! Smirnoff Paintfest 2011!

So my friend Ben and I went out to a club recently, to a CO2 party! The atmosphere was great and the DJ knew exactly what we all wanted! The cannons surrounding the dance floor were filled with bursts of CO2 and during the Swedish House Mafia set, the cool bursts were released! Such a cool down for the hot clubbers!

The drinks were sponsored by Smirnoff Vodka, they are continuing with their marketing techniques of the PAINTFEST 2011. Therefore when we ordered our Smirnoff cocktails, they were served up in these metal paint tins! AMAZING!

The only problem was they had ice in them and the metal became colder than holding a bowl of ice!!! The drinks were amazing! Good work Smirnoff!
