I just want to put this out there...

...that these are DISGUSTING. I'm all for a bit of lace BUT lace flares?! LACE FLARES? I'm still shocked at how such a cool label such as Silence and Noise could possibly EVER design something like these? Yak yak yak. That's just my opinion of course - somebody out there will be rocking these inventions and probably looking sickeningly cool or just plain disastrous.


Peter Jensen A/W 2010

My mailboxes have been hammered these past couple of weeks with newsletters and newsletters about London Fashion Week. The Dazed Digital newsletter caught my eye with Peter Jensen's A/W 2010 collection. I love it. Big wispy hair and pieces inspired by school uniforms - this look might just outdo my favourite evacuee chique look!

Double Magazine

Double Magazine is a London and Manchester based magazine and it's pretty god dam cool. Me&Yu are teaming up with Double Magazine at a secret warehouse party in Manchester on March 13th to launch the new issue. With Me&Yu's new season collection "Me&Yu Takes a Trip" being released VERY soon it's the perfect opportunity for us to go all psychedelic and make a real impact at the event.


Double aims to showcase the best in new designers, arists, musicians, photographers, bands etc so how exciting is it that Me&Yu gets to be involved and I get to go the event waheyyyy!

All Systems Go.

Alas! About a week ago I decided to dust off my tripod which my Grandad so kindly donated to me and get it working and it works! Wahoo! So I will be posting some Look book images when I get a chance and actually get changed out of my pjs.

I've also decided it makes quite a nice scarf hanger.

Mike Perry.

I came across Mike Perry through the Urban Outfitters website. He works on many different things such as writing books, magazines, illustrations, clothing, drawings and paintings plus loads more. It was his illustrations which caught my eye. His use of colour and shape is immense and I could look at his work all day.

Venus in Furs.

Created by 16 year old Luna Cedron. I want her stuff but it's pretty hard to find.


Her following includes Ed Macfarlane of Friendly Fires (pictured in the middle) and Jack Bevan of Foals (last image). Click on the first image to be directed to an interview on Dazed Digital. I want to wear one of her amazing illustrations please.

Red dress. Red lipstick.

I don't usually shop in Miss Selfridge as sometimes I think it is a little Boho meets Topshop gone horribly wrong (if you get what I mean!). However, I was VERY surprised to see this red dress on the mannequin in the window last week.



I couldn't pull off a back view but the back of the dress has a criss cross design. I love it and I loved wearing it...apart from it being a little ill-fitting around the boob area but nothing wrong with a bit of cleav!

Here is me wearing it with my whore Jenna.

I've recently started to do a bit more in the way of Public Relations and Media Relations with Me&Yu recently and I have been targeting a variety of blogs for some coverage. Over at Sitting Pretty, Claire blogged about Me&Yu (thanks again!!) and today www.clothingwire.com have featured an "Introducing Me&Yu" post. Clothingwire gives new and established labels chance to gain coverage on their site and to update any news, competitions or promotions which the brand is currently involved with.

Go to www.clothingwire.com to see Me&Yu loud and proud on today's post!!

My post about vintage is vintage itself.

I have been charity shopping and vintage shopping in Manchester, Blackpool and Preston throughout January and have been meaning to blog what I bought ever since. Technology has made it IMPOSSIBLE. So I'm attempting it again.

Here are a few of my favourite things I've found.
