MID JULY.


I've needed substance for a new blog post. So i've generated a few sketches, getting me back into drawing and giving your eyes some easy activity.

Inspiration Section.

I Love magazines/Books/images & words. I've most defiantly mentioned Oh Comely before, but last week i discovered the amazing Frankie, an Australian publication, which is really a study tool cause theres just so much interesting information from philosophy to design to travel! Its basically pages full of people who i find inspirational.

My boyfriend liked these illustrations, portraits of people in clothes, instead of simply photographing models in clothes. They were drawn by Helena Randall, (Click on her name) her blogs worth a look.

I've spent the past few months reading 'To die for, is fashion wearing out the world?' by Lucy Siegle. Its taken ages because its like reading a text book, its factual, in every essence of the word. In order to digest it properly my concentration has to be on full. 
Its a book that reveals the in's and out's of the fashion industry, the good, the bad and the ugly - and my word its ugly!

Check out this article on the Guardian, which sheds a little light on the book. I'll probs do a post on it when im finished, but in all honesty.. i feel like it needs to be read at least twice!
