I couldn't not resize just some of this AMAZING shoot by Will Davidson. They simply have to be viewed in all their glory, which means as large as possible. 


If you look at the qualities of the different images from the shoot, there really isn't much detail to be seen, in saying that, the draping of the garment's only enhance and bring more depth to the photography.


Pure bliss. I could stare at these images for hours.

chish and fips; seaside

borrowed hat and stockings from sister, ellery et graz sunglasses, sportsgirl shorts and earrings, thifted/altered top, wittner sandals.


My bf and i decided we'd make a trip to the closer seaside, that was shorncliffe. It was rather scenic but very windy which made it kind of uncomfortably cold. Afterwards, we both had it in our minds that we'd drive to redcliffe but were both disappointed on how much it had to offer and how run down it looked. We then spent approximately 45 mins walking around looking for a fish and chip shop because there literally was no 'decent' shop -in my opinion- to be found. Eventually we had to go back to the dodgy looking one, because you know when you think about a certain food and you decide you want it and nothing else at this point...well all i wanted was fish and chips and nothing else!

These designs are particularly similar to those of my own, except Andy Warhol's 'Pop Art' is referenced and dress/t-shirts are used instead of swimwear apparel. I guess some of us have to be trendsetters for the scene? Just kidding, it was bound to happen. But i do think of it as a weird coincidence in terms of the timing -right after my porfolio- that Pop art, more specifically Andy Warhol's work would be screenprinted on some form of garments and then be highly priced attributed to it's uniqueness? I don't think so, not if it's already been done.

Firstly, so sorry for the lack of updates, i am somewhat of a lazy blogger you could say. These designs uploaded were the creations by me for my fashion porfolio subject at uni. In hindsight, i am rather proud of what i created but let me tell you, there were alot of late nights, energy drinks and stress linked to the whole process. We had to orally present our concept proposal to class and it was interested to note the different processes people take when creating a concept and how well there designs were executed.


Basically my concept as a small-scale collection of swimwear inspired by the idea of 'retro' drawing upon similar silhouttes of both the 1950s and 1960s. Pop art and its motifs, patterns, subject matter and colours were a source of inspiration for my collection.


I would actually love to see these designs be executed and i don't know about anyone else, but i certainly would wear them.

macaron. or macaroons as we call it. I can't think whether i've tasted a macaroon before but they just look too delightful.

thank god i've finished my portfolio subject of a bitch. i think if i had to come up with a concept again, i probably wouldn't leave things so last minute but sometimes creativity doesn't come to you till the eleventh hour!

i shall upload some images of my work
