Inspired by // Tokyo Fashion Harajuku Girl in All Black


I love following fashion - high fashion, street style, drag, you name it, it interests me.

I have a few places I look for inspiration (books, magazine, websites) and one of my favourites is tokyofashion.com  an online magazine devoted to clothing, accessories, and style in Tokyo, Japan.

I have a few looks that I have been inspired by in the last few weeks one of which is this one....


Harajuku Girl in All Black Fashion w/ Faith Tokyo, Vivienne Westwood & Vintage Items


All black was always going to appeal to my aesthetic but so did the mix of modern and vintage pieces and the masculine cut of the trousers with the famine lacy camisole.

I was so inspired I have been trawling the interwebs to pick a few pieces that you could put together to achieve a somewhat similar look

I don't know about you, but when I am busy at work my creativity tends to dry up and that has been my reality for the last few months. I have also been busy trying to finish stitching  Christmas gifts.  Because of the deadline, I didn't want to start any new stitching projects until they were finished, and as they took far longer than I expected  I had a few projects  (that I was itching to start) that were just collecting dust. Thankfully I have been able to start them now and they include kits from Wildfloss and Innocent Bones. This is not my picture but is the sample from the new embroidery kit I am working on from Wildfloss. Embroidery Kit, 8" Abstract design on natural canvas £36.00 I have completed every Wildfloss kit so far and I love them. I have been embroidering for about 18 months now but would still consider myself a beginner so I find these kits perfect. They offer the right balance of pattern/guidance to creative freedom.

Etsy : The perfect place for a unique Advent Calendar

Over the past few years, I have shared with you my favourite unique Christmas cards, stocking fillers and tree decorations, all available from Etsy This year I want to share my favourite advent calendars. Maybe like me, your children are growing up and so they will appreciate a unique advent calendar for the treat it is, or maybe you would like the joy your family members get from opening their gifts to extend beyond the one day, or perhaps (also like me)  you just want to treat yourself a little bit. The possibilities with Etsy really are endless, and there are many more options than those that I am sharing, so I would highly encourage everyone to grab a cup of their favourite hot beverage and spend a fun 30 minutes persuing these sellers, and many more besides that. For the foodies, I have a list of food-based calendars  that contain items such as pork scratching and cheddar cheese, alongside those containing the more traditional chocolate options.  Cheesies Advent Calendar £32.50

Filling up the creative well when you are struggling....

Maya Angelou famously said “You can't use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” but I am sure I am not alone in not struggling with the concept, especially at the moment. Anyone who knows me personally will know that I have battled with my mental health for over half my life and despite an amazing support circle, the right medication and a whole toolbox of tools, sometimes my mood just dips that little bit lower than normal and despite a real urge to create (something, anything !!!) nothing appears.  I am by no means an expert and I sat here writing this rather than creating, so read into that as you may, but there are a few things I have been doing recently to try a keep my creative spark alive until something clicks and I can spend a few hours creating for me again. 1. Keeping up with my favourite creators on Social Media Dina Wakley is a huge inspiration of mine after first seeing her  on YT a few years ago, and she has been so generous with he
