Hey Guys,

Here's another quick little post of what we wore on another day in sixth form.

The longer days are a sign that Spring is on its way :) I love Spring, it's probably my favourite season, mainly because my birthday is in April (can't wait to be 18 finally!) and all the flowers are in full bloom and it's perfect layering weather.

I've been a busy bee this week trying to work out methods of mask making as we have been invited to our friend Hannah's 18th Masquerade Ball, we are stupidly excited, as you can imagine. I've settled for a tutorial which uses netting and 3D paint….if it works i'll pop up a step-by-step :) Any tips?

Love Jess

Hey all,

 

February is both the shortest and longest month of the year for me. It is so cold here in London and the novelty of winter clothes and layering is starting to wear off, so Spring couldn't look any more appealing!

 

Jess and I are going to a Fire and Ice themed party in a couple of weeks and we have no clue what to wear. We both love a good dress up theme but this one is proving a challenge. Would Elsa from Frozen be a little over the top (read: socially acceptable)? Frozen was amazing, I literally want to be her.

I'm guessing a Disney themed party for our joint 18th may be out of the question too?

 

Lots of love,

Paloma

Hey everyone,

Here are our outfits that we wore on Friday to our friend's 18th! We both wore dresses from Topshop (just a coinsedence we promise!) It was a really good evening but made us both feel so young (especially Paloma being an august baby!). It sparked a few ideas for our 18th. Yes, we're doing a joint party, believe me, it's expected amongst our friends! To fancy dress or not to fancy dress, that is the question. What do you all think!

Parties on the brain right now though, who's feeling festive already?! I am! I love christmas, everyone is always chirpier, the christmassy baking, the constant smell of cinnamon and crisp cold air which turns your fingertips into icicles. This has got Paloma and I thinking about hosting a Christmas party, of course...fancy dress-up! Turn my lil house into a winter wonderland and bake til my hearts content with yule logs and mountains of mince pies! Oh god, i'm getting carried away aren't I ... oops, we've still got November to get through first :)

Speak to you all soon my loves, Jess xxx

Hey all,

YAY! The amazing weather has continued, there has never been a better incentive to go and revise, when you can sit outside and study in the sun, and with the thought of summer and holidays cheekily starting to creep out of the back of my mind, where it has been forced to stay after months of snow and rain things are looking bright!! Thanks to everyone who has already voted for us in the company blog awards we love you all, and to get shortlisted means so much to us! Hope everyone has a fab friday tomorrow and a lovely weekend! Some more acts are getting announced for Reading Festival today, maybe time to get myslef a ticket? (the Maccabees pretty pretty please...)

Loads of love, Paloma xxx

PS. We have made the shortlist! Please vote for us for 'Best Teen Blog' in the Company Blog Awards 2013, here, thanks!!

Your carbon makes a star, and after all, that's all we are

  

Hey all,

It was Jess's 17th birthday on Sunday and I organised a surprise get together with some of our friends which was so nice! Haha as you can probably tell from the picture above (Jess will hate me for putting that up!) she wasn't expecting it! If you follow us on instagram you would have seen that one of Jess's presents was a Maccabees laptop cover, which we then got crazy excited about because the Maccabees liked our post, wow we are such fangirls! We went to Zizzi which is a super tasty Italian resturant and if there is one nearby you we definitely reccomend it! Continuing with Maccabees related presents I made Jess a 'toothpaste kisses' tshirt (has to be one of the cutest songs ever!) It was such a fun night, only bad thing is I still have to wait four months till I'm 17 (the perks of being a summer baby!)

What we wore:

 Me- dress- Tk Maxx, Boots- Topshop, Cardi- Susan Bristol

Jess- Shirt- Bershka, Shoes- Topshop, Belt- River Island, Shorts- Vintage, Rings- Accessorise

Loads of love, Paloma xxx

The Pinafore Dress...

Hi Guys,

Here is a quick post to show you all how we both style the staple item that is The Pinafore Dress. It may sound old fashioned but is a key feature on the rails of Topshop and River Island. In this post, we are both styling a burgundy Pinafore Dress due to the fact that here in London it still feels like winter and burgundy is very on trend.

 

So, Paloma and I had a brainwave, before we set our hearts on it, we would like to hear your thoughts on us starting ...cos it's The Bee's Knees Shop. It would start as a low key jewellry/accessories shop and then hopefully expand, but what do you guys all think of it, and what would you like to see on the online shelves?

 

Have an amazing week, Jess xxx

Style Icon- The Pinafore Dress: Alexa Chung

 

One of the most fashion conscious celebs out there, it's no wonder Alexa Chung is one of our style icons. The Pinafore Dress is seen being sported by Alexa Chung on numerous occasions, so whenever you're stuck for an outfit with this staple item, you know who to take inspiration from :)

 

That bloodymary's lacking in tobasco, remember when you used to be a rascal...

Hello my lovelies :)

As the days are getting colder and longer and christmas spending sprees are just around the corner, our fashion gets more and more cosy and thermal. Mostly wearing boots, black tights and trousers, our winter wardrobe is much more limiting than our summer ones. But there is a positive...christmas is coming soon - and we've already been discussing a christmas baking day and post for the blog, looking forward to it :)

 

Anyway, i decided to go for a slightly animal themed look for today, with a dog print blouse and leopard brint shoes...and of course, warm trousers. Paloma went for a more feminine look with a textured dress and her beautiful new heeled chelsea boots.

Quick question...what are you all asking for, for christmas, im stuck for ideas!!???

Love you all, Jess xxx
