These are still only my toilé's and are still in development. They will be made in a mix of  flannel,plaids,florals and jersey when I make the actual outcomes of these.
I will post photo's when I get started on those, but for now I have to get cracking on the next six outfits I have to make in two weeks!
I'd also like to thank Marianne for passing on this lovely award, it means alot to be nominated. Check out Mariannes blog, if you havent done so already, she always has fabulous posts full of inspiring fashion editorials.I will post about this in a future post...

Jessie J at The Brits 2012
The Brits showcased some of the hottest and talented stars of British music, with some international treats,including performances from the stunning Rhianna and incredibly talented Bruno Mars. Adele and Ed Sheeran cleaned up on the night, accepting two well deserved awards each. Although Jessie J did'nt take home an award, she stoll the show with her risque, and jaw droppingly gorgeous gown by designers Falguni&Shane Peacock. Below is Jessie J, and some more of the designers inspirational work...

Abercrombie&Fitch
I mentioned in my last post, about a competition I was taking part in.
The competition was running between 10 Universities, to win a Job Designing for Abercrombie&Fitch in Ohio. It was a fantastic opportunity that I could'nt let pass by, so I got working on the design brief and created a range of designs and garment technical flats to present in my interview,earlier last week.
I was'nt successful in making it to the next round of interviews, in America, but I have some work,I'm really pleased with, to add to my porfolio, experience of the competition and interview and inspiration for my new project, I've called 'Traveller Girl'.
Some of my Presentation Boards For the Competition.Designs,Fabrics,Styling,Colours and Detail.
Though I'm disappointed and it's hard to focus on the positives, there's no point in dwelling on not getting through, the best thing to do, is to look at this experience and take as many positives from this as possible, as I have learnt and gained alot from this experience.
Let Me Know What You Think? What do you think I could of changed or need to work on?

Hope you all have a lovely weekend. Thank you for all your lovely comments as always.

Final Major Project
These past few weeks have been non stop,with new projects, coursework deadlines and a job interview, for a huge competition thats running between my Uni and 9 others,I'll tell you all about it when I hear more,and hopefully get some good news;fingers crossed.

I had to do alot of design work for this competition,so I thought I'd take inspiration from this and continue this theme for my Final Major Project, plus it was such an inspiring experience and Ive enjoyed the oppurtunity,every step of the way,so have alot of passion and inspiraion for my 'FMP'.

'Traveller Girl' is all about a journey, a young girl,who is at a time in her life, where she has oppurtunities, has to make a choice of which path to take in life? The world is her oyster...

"Happiness is a Journey, Not a Destination"- Ben Sweetland.
Some of my sketchbook work,initial ideas and research.

Inspired by The brand the competition is for;plaid fabrics,outdoors wear etc.
Will tell you more about this competition and who its with soon.
