Hello world

Hello world

Okay, here goes.
 In the quest for originality, I intend to make this blog a 0% cringe-worthy space right from the start (although, look at the start of this blog post *rolls eyes*)

Starting this blog has been something I have wanted to do for ages, and after encouragement from family and friends, I have finally decided to start one, which I'm sure you agree is exciting (although nerve wracking!)

It takes guts to put yourself out there, just saying'

I want this blog to be mainly Fashion based, to anyone who knows me this is not a surprise, however it may change in time, and thats fine. I don't want to just commit to a theme

Love, Harry

BRANDED FASHION - LOVE IT OR LOATH IT

BRANDED FASHION - LOVE IT OR LOATH IT Brand logos are extremely popular with current Instagram bloggers and their street style, but they continue to divide the fashion community as a question of taste. Many people wrongly judge their fashion aesthetic around how much their outfit costs, and designer logos are an immediate way to communicate that to the average passer by. Personally, I like the look of a logo, so long as it positively impacts the outfit and is not done to "show off" the brand. Many people feel that any brand logo is done to enforce the brand on others, but if you look deeper than just how much that item of designer clothing may cost, logos are a good example of iconic graphic design, and I personally love the look of a logo (if done *classily*). The first logo to outwardly show a brand name was the monogram print of French trunk maker Louis Vuitton. In 1896, Louis Vuitton's son, Georges created the pattern in a bid to prevent counterfeiting of the...

DIY: Louis Vuitton Mon Monogram Personalisation

DIY: Louis Vuitton Mon Monogram Personalisation Louis Vuitton has a personalisation service whereby you can get several stripes, as well as 3 initials painted on some of their bags and accessories in the Monogram and Damier Graphite canvas prints. I think the designs are screen printed over the canvas (because they are so flawless and are very uniform) using special pigment before being varnished, so I decided to try it myself!    Louis Vuitton's Passport cover with Mon Monogram Sadly I don't have the means to screen print myself, so I decided to paint them instead. You will need; Acrylic paint, I find the vibrant colours and white look the best (Acrylic paint is very hardwearing so will not need touching up very often) Paintbrushes (the smaller the better) Tape (to get crisp lines, frog tape works really well) Something to paint on (a cardholder or pencil case are great, but you could do it on pretty much anything) A pencil (to draw out the sh...

Fur in the fashion industry

Fur in the fashion industry: Friend or Foe? F.U.R. The three letters that, when under that syntax can completely divide followers of both fashion and animal welfare. Once a highly regarded material in fashion that epitomised luxury and comfort, it now holds controversial connotations. Personally, I find fur extremely difficult to wrap my head around. Fur has been used in clothing since, most likely the beginning of time. Cavemen are likely to have used the hides from animals that they killed to eat as protection from their artic, pre centrally heated winters. The key here is that, for them, the fur was a necessary by-product of their eating habits, they didn't kill the animals for their skins, but for the flesh. Skip forward thousands of years, and by the 1980s (arguably earlier), fur was no longer a necessity for warmth, but a symbol of wealth and "style", used to trim coats and jackets with no other use other than being simply aesthetically. The majority of fur, 8...
