Hey Guys!

So we haven't been up to much recently, which explains the lack of posts, we've both been hermits revising. Paloma's got an exam on Monday, she'll do great, but keep your fingers crossed for her :) we've both got our english exams on the 6th which HAVE to go well, my mind is entirely quotations right now.

We did you something quite exciting, you could say… we went to see Arctic Monkeys play at Finsbury Park with some of our true faves, Royal Blood, Miles Kane and Tame Impala. It was officially the best gig ever, we were right at the front! Felt as if we were in touching distance of Alex Turner. There were so many mosh pits, which we love and the best music to accompany some of our mad dancing.

I couldn't recommend seeing all of these guys highly enough, they're all incredible live and really work the audience…even if it is to the extent that I get a black eye, at least its a memory :P

Speak to you all soon!

Hey everyone,
 
Sorry for the slightly melancholic title, it was just too appropriate not to use. Its a lyric from my favourite Arctic Monkeys song, of whom we will both be seeing come Saturday at Finsbury Park (the thought of Alex Turner within reach is a little too much to handle), and also, today was our last of sixth form ever, and I definitely feel too young to be leaving my school and friends of seven years behind. On a less sad note we still have prom to look forward to after exams so we'll be seeing everyone again very soon :)
 
The sunny weather spell is not so sunny anymore but we are hoping it will brighten up again so we can take more summery outfit photos like this one!
 
Have a great week!
 
Loads of love,

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 Guys!
Hope you're all well, here is a quick post from when we booked a visit to Roehampton to view a possible prom venue called Parkstead House. Its was beautiful, the grounds were absolutely incredible, therefore we couldn't resist taking a few OOTDs as it was a crisp winter's day, with a touch of sunshine! We both decided to wear our pleather skirts (telepathic besties) as we are both vegetarians, no leather allowed!

Monochrome is a huge trend this season which will feature on many of the london catwalks, we definitely urge you all to buy a pleather skirt, you'll get much wear out if it :)

Speak to you all soon, Jess xxx

Hey everyone,
 
Yay, this is the first time we have posted twice in the same week for a long while- finally a New Years resolution which is a teeny bit successful (I am still putting off the whole new year, new me thing, exercise can wait a while longer!)
 
This is what we wore to Sixth Form today. We have been starting to organise our end of year prom this week, which is just as exciting as it is stressful! I am still searching for my dress but at the moment seem to be only attracted to really simple short styles which I feel is wrong- help! Can anyone recommend any high street shops which have nice evening dresses?
 
Lots of love, Paloma

Isn't it hard to make up your mind? When you're losing and your fuse is fireside

Fireside- Arctic Monkeys
Top, Trousers and Shoes- Primark, Cardi- M&S
Jumper and Boots- Primark, Skirt- H&M, Jacket- F&F, Beanie- Goodie Bag

So here is another of our AW13 looks, this time channelling 'boyish' outfits. One of the main trends this winter is masculine meets feminine, creating an androgynous vibe. If you have been reading our blog for a while you have probably realised that me and Jess are very girly in the way we dress, not being able to resist a pair of heels or a peter pan collar! However once in a while we like to push our fashion boundaries and try something new, so here it is! I am wearing my trusty polka dots trousers, whilst Jess is sporting a slouchy beanie and boots!
 
Its London Fashion week! Has anyone had a chance to go to any of the shows? What are the trends you are loving at the moment?
 
Loads of love, Paloma xxx

Hey everyone!

So with the last of our holiday pics up, the new term is officially upon us (ekk). Me and Jess are going into our last year of sixth form, its weird to think that this time next year we'll be heading off to uni and moving away from home!

Last week, we were invited to a blogger breakfast by the lovely people at Avenue 32- an online luxury shopping website. Despite getting lost in Camden-yet again- we were just in time for a yummy breakfast and catch up with some fellow bloggers! We were treated to a talk about AW 2013 trends and key pieces. As you can probably tell from our outfits of choice we are really excited about the full skirt trend that we'll be seeing a lot of in the coming months.

We are really looking forward to autumn fashion, so we'll be writing a couple of posts about upcoming trends and our favourite picks from the high street soon!

Loads of love,
Paloma xxx
