What part of forever

Posted on June 15, 2011 by Laura

Allow me to introduce you to Caitlin Bellah- a wonderfully talented photographer from San Francisco, currently based in Europe for the Summer (and hopefully much, much longer!)

Caitlin aims to create pictures that look like paintings and has a beautiful girlish style that wouldn’t be amiss on the pages of Lula. Having already scored two high profile magazine covers for JPG and Peppermint, Caitlin continues to develop her work-drawing inspiration from film and other photographers. Reading these inspiration lists it is clear that Caitlin’s preferred style veers towards the whimsical side of things which suits me just fine!!

Caitlin also has a great Tumblr full of inspiring images and stories from her scrapbook to immerse yourself in.

Heavy in Your Arms

Dress- Dorothy Perkins circa 2004 * Necklace- Present circa 2003

No excuses for how grumpy I look in both of these pictures! It’s been an age since I posted an outfit up here (or anything in general for that matter!) so here you are my lovelies. The weather in Dublin has been beautiful lately- my apartment luckily has lots of windows so it’s been flooded with light and abnormally hot every day in chez moi.

You can spy my new tattoo in the first picture, I tried to get it in the second one (while you’re there, check out my mad arms! Both are double jointed due to a clumsy childhood and broken limbs). It’s been a crazy few weeks and I couldn’t be more excited now that Summer has officially arrived. Along with the sunshine, three of my awesome friends are moving back to Dublin over the next few weeks and I have some great gigs coming up.

Expect to see many more prom dresses and midi lengths as I attempt to phase tights out of my wardrobe for the time being.

I remember

This was my face yesterday- I popped along to Topshop for the launch of their new dress collection. I bought something for my not so little anymore sister which I now want to keep for myself. Absolutely EVERYTHING I’m wearing bar my tights is from Miss Selfridge- the most under-rated shop on the high street.

Still getting used to working all weekend every weekend, Summer makes me want to lie around with daiquiris and dance music allllllll day long.

So sorry, it’s over

Mille-Feuille

Posted on April 3, 2011 by Laura

This was yesterday- I was working from home until 5 (pyjama club FTW!) so afterwards I felt like being fancy. If I had to pick one thing from my wardrobe that represents my style the most it would be this glorious skirt. Fashioned out of my debs dress (which was, shock horror, 6 years ago now), it has layers and layers of delicious mille-feuille that make me feel just magic.

Shirt- Penneys * Skirt- Vintage @ Jenny Vander * Ribbon- Rubanesque * Tights- Penneys
