Trends I Hate – Lime Green
Impracticality – 1/5 Unsightliness – 4/5 Suitablility – 2/5 Look, I love a bright neon shade as much as the next girl, but I much prefer it when that neon shade is not assaulting my eyes with how bright it is. Neon green is apparently this season’s go-to shade, and I am not here for […]
Trends I Hate – Super Chunky Trainers
Impracticality – 3/5 Unsightliness – 4/5 Suitablility – 1/5 Look, I’m girl who likes heels. A boost to their height is always welcome, and I’m not much of a stiletto girl either – show me a chunky platform heel and I will show you a shoe I am in love with. However, with fashion, as […]

2016 is finally, FINALLY over, and we’re all looking to 2017 with apprehension, waiting to see how the tumultuous political and cultural events of last year will unfold. The same is also true of fashion. You don’t get seismic shifts in the workings of the world without them somewhat influencing your wardrobe! So what will […]
A New Frontier in Festival Fashion
Festival Fashion is a term which is slowly being rejected by the fashion moguls of the world. Instead of creating a ‘uniform’, they encourage festival-goers to enhance their personal styles and make the event what they want it to be. Saying that, there are key trends which apply to certain festivals, so here is a […]

This is the year that we are set to turn our student-sized kitchens into breweries Pinterest provides excellent procrastination appeal at the best of times, but the fact that this […]
