Happy Pancake day peeps !!

        I hope you are all stuffed with pancakes !

I was meant to be spending my evening writing an essay about the production process in television, but after my two friends came round with pancake mix singing 'All star' by smash mouth announcing they were off to Prestons local alternative night club 'The Warehouse' I decided what the hell, the essay can wait. 

Despite it being London fashion week most of my fashion class have jetted of to Berlin which meant I could have a lye in. Yesss! On top of that it was 'Challenge' week in connections, which involved a lot of questions about wires, the internet and block diagrams. My team (Super team we named out selves) did not win but only two marks off! next time guys. 

When I came to Preston for my interview Giselle came with me and with in two hours of wondering around Preston she had found the nicest tea cafe ever! 'Mystery Tea House', if your ever in Preston you have to go and not only try there endless list of exciting teas but also their mushroom soup which is heavenly and comes with a life time supply of thick bread. http://www.mysteryteahouse.com/ <check it out here, maybe even buy some nice tea? I suggested to my friend he should by some tea for his girl friend, he didn't. This time I opted for a green banana smoothie and my friend had cactus tea, it was so good we've planned a girl date there tomorrow. 

Here's to a crazy night out and an early start tomorrow morning !
I can't get this song out my head now!

Holographic fashion shows ?!

Im half way through writing a blog post for the last few weeks but while I was trying to write my 3000 word essay i got distracted and found these videos on YouTube of holographic fashion shows and I'm in awe of them. I was getting excited about how people were making fashion films, but holographic fashion shows in front of a live audience is insane ! Apparently they have been around for a while! clearly i need to try and stay more up to date with what's happening in the fashion world, both these videos are from a few years ago but man there good (though the video quality for both is pretty awful, sorry). I love how they make the show a piece of art, not just about the clothes, fashion really is so much more than clothes.
