Ye’ Olden Times: Model in The Making

By March 5, 2013 Fashion, My Style

A few weeks ago I did a post on my first Clothes Show Live, with a few old pictures of me. Well, I went to check my emails and there was an email from my sister saying ‘Sorry Tolly, you never stood a chance, you were always destined to be in-front of the camera!’. And I thought, what?! I then looked and found that there were a few attachments, and I saw the pictures of me when I was about 5 or 6, when me and my sister did a photoshoot in our village. I was her little ‘Model in The Making’. So here they are…

Just look at that one with the mobile phone, what was I doing with my chin and nose?! The weirdest thing is that I was called Tolly Dolly even then, because the file name was ‘Tolly Dolly’ and my sister hadn’t changed them. Weird. Haha. I wouldn’t really want to be a model unless it was really good pay. I don’t like the fuss of the modelling world. But, you know I wouldn’t mind trying it out again…

Ye’ Olden Times: My First Clothes Show Live

By January 21, 2013 Fashion, My Style

Okay, so my sister emailed me with some pictures, and said I should do a post on it, which is understandable, but I mean, they’re not great pictures (i.e red eye etc) so, don’t expect much, but it is quite cool where they were taken. I experienced my first Clothes Show Live in 2010 (I was 10) and at that time, I knew I liked Fashion, but I wasn’t like blogging or I wasn’t dressing up trendy, or having my own style, I was just a young girl (I say that 2 years later!), who just threw pink tops on, with a nice skirt etc. But, now I have changed, i.e Look at the banner & past pictures and you will tell the difference from below…

Back in 2010 Clothes Show Live was at Earles Court in London, so we travelled all the way down and I was really excited! *Smiling for the camera* We had the AAA Passes, which to be honest weren’t worth it. They said you could sit nearer the catwalk and get more stuff and discounts, but we were told to move seats, and we had to wait for ages in the queue even with them, and also at the end they gave out the AAA Goody bags for free anyway!

DSCF1347Don’t you just love it? One of my idols, Vivienne Westwood, such a cool picture! If you’re wondering why I have 2 bags, one is mine (Pink Hello Kitty one) and the other is my mum’s back cushion bag (I am sure I will explain that at a later date)…

This picture just makes me laugh! Haha. I think I was trying on some from one of the stalls, but I wish I had bought them, they’re actually quite cute! (Sorry to the lady behind me, I don’t know who you are, but um, thanks for looking at me weirdly!)

DSCF1352So, here I am posing, and I don’t think this is a bad picture, now looking at it again. If you want to know what I was wearing here it is: Debenhams Cardigan (Goes with everything, love it!), Homemade Bracelets, Love Letter Necklace (I bought it there), Accessorize Shoes, Matalan Jeggings & A Dress (I think it’s either from Debenhams or BHS…?)

My thoughts on the whole thing were overall not very good. The fact that they gave people what we payed extra for, for free, annoyed me. The extremely long queues, annoyed me. I don’t know what it’s like 2 years on, but I don’t think I’ll be going again, well at least I hopefully won’t be paying next time 😉 Haha. Also, the show wasn’t even that great. I did get to see The Wanted live, when they first became big, and I did experience my first show, but I wasn’t that amazed. The designs weren’t like a designer show (which I guess you don’t look out for at this event), and I felt like it was more like a TV Show. I thought perhaps although it was a public event, it could’ve been a bit more professional.

Have you ever been to the Clothes Show Live? Did you go to this one? Leave a comment down below! 😀
