Look! A book, of looks.



All over the last few months of college and throughout this summer I have been working on this lookbook. Every time I finish with a magazine, I go all ninja on it with scissors I accidentally stole from my school art room when I was about 14.


Inspired by a video I saw on a blog, sometime last year.

GO THERE AND WATCH IT FIRST!!! I COMMAND YOU!

It is a truly addictive way to waste an afternoon. :)
I have ended up with a huuuugely thick book that I am very proud of. It started off just being fashion, and whilst it largely still is there are also articles, quotes and other images too..
So yeh, bit of a mishmash, and although the book isn't finished yet I am too damn impatient, and I was bored one night so I filmed this. Hope you like it :)

(Don't tell me I don't know how to have fun.)

  1. That's right. I sat and watched all of that, and now might possibly be late for work... I think this is an amazing idea. I should probably do something similar, as all the pictures I cut out are plastered on my bedroom wall, and seem to be absorbing everything else. And i don't think le boyfriend appreciates it.

  2. Oh dear I apologise for making you late for work! But thankyou dollface, the video doesn't do the actual scrapbook justice, I am so proud of it. Do it! Even if just to keep the walls neat. ;)
