Day 8> Jazz up a jacket

The prompt today was to jazz up a coat, but I didn't really know how I could spice up my jacket and the other coats I have are purely functional and smother every outfit I wear! So instead I decided to let it speak for itself :)

As we have German exchange students at the moment, I thought that I should get them involved with my day to day life: aka this blog (though I appear to be neglecting the blogging sphere at the moment). Victor, my friend's partner, was telling me how he didn't like the picture or the editing of the photos on my blog, so I challenged him to take the pictures instead. And, as he hates my editing, I thought I'd leave them be. Victor thought he'd join in with the modelling too.

Don't worry, I will be back full-time soon,

Say :)

Day 7> Bright Colours

Ok, ok, so I didn't do yesterdays challenge, I know. But I do have a valid excuse: my awesome exchange partner! :) I haven't really got the time to take beautiful photos and edit them to perfection (not that I manage to do that anyway!). But I did have a go today. I managed to take 6 photos in total; it was so cold I thought I would turn blue to match my dress. Hopefully I will have better luck tomorrow :)

Winter Edition: Day 5> Mixing Patterns

Today we were really blessed with gorgeous clear blue skies and an amazing golden sun- perfect for taking pictures at the lake between classes! I thought that I would try and make the pattern mixing subtle by basing the whole outfit around the same turquoise and grey colour scheme :) Last time I tried to do pattern mixing, I failed miserably and knew that I would never ever actually wear that outfit in public. This time, on the other hand, I can see myself wearing it again and again :)

Love,

Say :)

PS. My exchange partner is coming to stay with me tomorrow, so look out for a guest appearance :)

Winter Edition: Day 4> Channelling Eeyore

So I'm back taking pictures at college again, but instead of Oliver taking them (he was in an exam so I let him off), I asked Trudy to take some. I always find that I can't be serious when other people take pictures of me, as if I think they will laugh if I actually try to pose! Hence the reason I end up with pictures of me trying to climb up the tree in the college grounds.

The prompt for today was "channel someone" and using the inspiration of this really awesome tumblr which puts together outfits for disney characters, I thought I would try it! I chose eeyore because I thought I he was grey and I have grey trousers. Turns out he is actually kind of blue, so I don't really look like eeyore at all!

Oh well, better luck next time I guess!

And don't worry, Trudy, no one will notice that you actually focused on the wall and the tree instead of me! Thanks for the pictures chica!

Winter Edition: Day 3> Try a trend

I thought I'd go a bit wild with this prompt and hop on the 'bright and crazy coloured tights' bandwagon! I bought these bright orange ones after seeing Carrie's (wow, that makes me feel like that girl on 'Mean Girls') and decided that they were far too bright and garish to wear! But I figured that this prompt gives me an excuse :P That and the extremely important law exam!

It felt strange but somehow liberating, taking pictures at college! Oliver took them for me in one of our free periods, so not many people were around, but I still had a few funny looks!

Sorry about missing yesterday, I figured I'd better revise instead :(
