Looking forward to 2011

Ahh, the Christmas season is well and truly behind us. I’m taking down my rather sad Christmas tree this weekend – it’s all droopy and crispy. I haven’t posted in a couple of weeks, deciding to have a little break instead. The result being that I’m all refreshed and optimistic for the year ahead. Fashion never being too far away from my mind, I have been enjoying a fantastic book that my sister got me for Christmas – Alexander McQueen: Genius of a Generation. The word Genius gets thrown around a lot but in Alexander Mcqueen’s case, it is well deserved. The book is the first to be penned after McQueen’s tragic death last year and is full of gorgeous, breathtaking pictures. The book’s author, Kristin Knox (a fashion journalist and blogger), goes on to describe McQueen’s childhood in East London to his unfinished Autumn/Winter 2010 collection. It is a beautiful book.
As well as expanding my mind, I’ve also been trawling the pages of lookbook.nu, which describes itself as a fashion collective. It is awesome. Gorgeous girls and boys from all over the world, post looks of themselves in their favourite fashion ensembles. It is one of the better street style blogs out there. Some of the individuals who post are extremely style savvy and it’s where I feel the most wardrobe envy. My favourite postie to date is Olivia H, a self proclaimed bad role model from Manchester. She rocks.
I definitely need to up my game
