Peg Trousers Style

I decided recently that I wanted another 'look' to add to my repertoire, I generally look like a skater or hippie these days, but never very smart. I don't know, could you call this smart with a leather jacket and pumps? Let me know! I'm not too sure how I feel about these trousers. They look...

Manchester Fashion Blogger

A few more shots from the shoot I did a little while ago :) Skatergirls ftw! <3 This is where I got my trusty R3's and my wheels are Cruise 62mm 78A's, can't remember the bearings, I got them ages ago. I know I haven't blogged in a while, sorry! (I'm pretty active on instagram though @kokoluxe) I've been super busy with my awesome new life in Manchester :D Best place I've ever lived! Got a few things to blog though, so I'll update y'all soon! Thanks for sticking with me lovely people of the interwebs! x

Etched Drinks Personalised Gin

Free gin you say? Well why not :P I was thinking about going to the Yin before Gin class at The Wonder Inn anyway (The most magical place in Manchester!) I love Yin yoga and am partial to a G&T every now and again, so when Etched Drinks got in touch, how could I refuse!...

T-Post Wearable Tshirt

T-post is the world’s first wearable magazine. Basically, it’s a never ending volume, with one story illustrated per T-shirt, or issue as they like to call it. They have subscribers ranging from Jay-Z and Banksy to your average Joe, spread out over 53 countries and have been called ”Awesome” by Time Magazine and ”Reinventing the magazine” By The Wall Street Journal.

I got the XL and cut that shizz up to make a tank top, I also cut out the tag and made it reversible, wearing it inside out and back to front, because the actual article is rad and printed on the inside! It also comes in a wicked A4 cardboard folder with a boy on the front lol x

Zaful Tribal/Aztec Festival Summer Style

How beautiful is this dress, perfect hippie vibes :) And again, I got the dress in a size Large, because Asian sizing... lol. The fabric is soft too. Tom did a great job at capturing me being all floaty and ethereal in a patch of tall grass in a random park in Manchester...

Skater Style

I have wanted to do a shoot in my skates for the longest time, so I finally made it happen with my trusty photographer Tom and I'm so in love with these shots, they pretty much perfectly represent my skater girl side :D I'm hoping to join the Manchester derby team since I can't get to the Cheshire Hellcats anymore, but they only have fresh meat intakes occasionally, so I'm still waitiiiiing...

Superdry Split Maxi Dress

I styled this dress two ways and this is the more elegant of the two, paired down with just a few pieces of jewellery (which I never take off). The dress is by Superdry from House of Fraser and is only £19.99 in the sale. It's knitted, so it's super stretchy and super comfortable, and as the fabric is a bit thicker than normal, it is also quite flattering :)

Contemporary Interiors Wishlist

Chesterfield fabric sofa: The Original Sofa Co  |  Floor lamp: Ikea  |  Bonsai trees: Ikea  |  Gold foil mandala print: Etsy  |  Palm print cushion: Etsy  |  Bulb string lights: Laura Ashley  |  Candle: Cocolux (lol)

All the pretty! I love this cream sofa paired with the copper floor lamp and bold palm print cushion. The mandala print is stunning and the bulb string lights add a contemporary twist. A pair of bonsai trees and gold candle complete the look, a simple but beautiful room.

New Headshots

Finally took some shots of my new 'look' for my portfolio! I made a mini studio in my room (not that you'd ever know!) You should see it, I have two chairs with one of those wavy ikea mirrors on each and a grey blanket draped over the top haha :D

Do You Regret Cutting Your Hair?

Natural to blonde to shorter to lob!

So it's been about 4 months since I cut my hair short and I have settled on a shoulder length brunette 'lob'. So what is the verdict? What have I learnt from cutting off my safety blanket? And do I ever miss my waist length blonde/brunette locks?...
