Chainmail and Updates

I've been looking around and I found this article on Vogue.com about this new metal and graduate designers at Central St Martins have been using it combining it with material to make gorgeous clothes and also to make beautiful jewellery. There is also a wonderful designer i've found on Boticca.com, an independent designer from Glasgow called Jamdesign, and she makes these wonderful, chainmail statement pieces of jewellery.
http://boticca.com/jamdesign/  They're really unique and would just add any amount of edge and class to any outfit. I'm very tempted when i next get paid to invest. I've been loving chainmail and crochet pieces for a while and whilst charity shopping yesterday I found a crochet black and gold beaded shawl, it's hard to explain but i think it adds that edge to any outfit. It's lightweight and it's elegant, i'll post photos when i'm back at home as I headed up to my grandparents house today last minute on the train so we're going to Camden Market tomorrow. I'm so excited as down in Devon i get rarely any style, no vintage shops and i have to trawl the charity shops for inspiration and a good item! Although i've found quite a few, a mint green maxi skirt which i wore today with a pair of lilac creepers and a dusky rose crepe material top to travel in which was nice! I'll have to post some kind of haul, whether it's by video or photo's we'll have to see because i hate my voice and also have no way to edit it! Apart from really shoddily, but i will try!

I also have a lot of photo's to post from Free Range London Fashion Week, which was just wonderful being able to work backstage with all the graduate designers and the models and my first proper shoot with several menswear models on the roof of The Old Truman Brewery in Brick Lane which was pretty terrifying but i just got stuck in. I'll have to post those up too and give reviews and stuff!
Just a badly edited snapshot of one of the models, she was beautiful!

I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight so i'm gonna research some more 2013 collections and vintage shops around London.
Also going to the Damien Hirst exhibition monday! Despite having no money this is turning out to be a pretty good weekend despite all the stress!
Sadie.
