I can see the sea



This was my day people, I know, it was tough. Hung out at the beach enjoying the wonderful feeling of sand between my toes and the seemingly never ending reaches of the sea. My local beach is a little know place called Camber Sands. I kid, I kid, Camber is of course a famous fashion landmark for being the place where Corrine Day photographed THAT iconic editorial of Kate Moss. I love it when it looks like this and there is barely anyone about, I mainly don't bother even leaving my town if it's hot on a weekend as I know I'll be stuck in Camber traffic for hours! Talk about fair-weather friends.

A little reading to catch up on, including i:D, POP, and Vogue, which I cannot believe I have had for a week and only just got around to opening! There is a fantastic article about British fashion designers to celebrate 25 years of LFW with some beautiful portraits to accompany it so if you can get a hold of a copy I suggest you have a read. I have started to feel guilty about how many magazines I buy and only briefly flick through...

I also watched the amazing documentary by Jon Ronson, who I LOVE, on Stanley Kubrick, Stanley Kubrick's Boxes, a remarkable insight. Friends have commented before about my slight tendencies towards OCD and organisation but Kubrick took it to extraordinary lengths. Watch.

Let's get fresh!

September, September, month of milky sunsets and new knitwear. Dreamy. I totally have that back to school feeling, I'm yearning for new pencils and harvest festivals. Ah, to be young and innocent again. This week is all about getting fresh. I'm planning on having a humongous clear out, I may even have a boot sale if I can manage to get out of bed before midday on a Sunday.

Sooo... I went to Bestival this past weekend and it truly was the year of the spectacular! The sun shone, every conceivable type of music played and I have never seen so much metallic clothing in one place before in my life! The weekend was heady mix of blurry cider-induced merriment, sunburn and a little bit of dancing. The site just gets better and better every year and the bohemian, kitsch decor really befits the atmosphere. There is a lot of love there people...

Oooooh, new cameras!

I had an urge. I couldn't resist it. Not having a camera was horrible! I think it made me a little bit crazy because instead of just replacing my camera I bought two cameras. Oops. I had a little outing around the town with my D60 yesterday. Fun times!


Today I am photographing antique furniture to be shipped to America and then tomorrow the seaside awaits, followed by a roast beef with all the trimmings! Next week is Bestival!!! Sooo excited! Outfit planning to follow...

Gypsy Rose Kate

These pictures of Kate Moss are taken from the new issue of V magazine. I think they are divine. I have seen a lot of blah shoots of Kate recently but I Iove, Love, LOVE this one! I am pretty sure I am predisposed to having SAD every year but this editorial actually give me a gooey feeling about the impending autumnal season. It makes me think of long woodland walks and cosy campfires in oversized jumpers... Plus, the fashion is amazing.
