</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">I came across this artist called Hilton Owen and literally fell in love! His work takes surrealism to a whole new almost modern, way of seeing this form of art! Maybe it's the magazine like pictures of the women that makes it more contemporary. It is undeniably an amazing collection of work! Oh yeah, and I WANT ONE! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, I have been looking at <a href="http://www.jac5.com/home">http://www.jac5.com/home</a> and I feel so excited that there are more brands taking mens underwear more seriously. As most women know, good underwear makes you feel 100% better, so finally there is a brand focusing on this niche in the mens market. Nobody likes to see grubby, baggy and tired looking pants and jac5.com have most certainly tapped into that. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">My favourite part about <a href="http://www.jac5.com/home">http://www.jac5.com/home</a> is that they have made a series of collections e.g Loyal, Barking Mad and Super Smart. The beauty of the collections is that they capture a personality and have a sense of occasion. There is an underlining humour with the pants from <a href="http://www.jac5.com/home">http://www.jac5.com/home</a> which brands like CK and Armani just don't have. These pants in my opinion are like the type of man every woman wants, stylish, sexy and playful (not too into themselves). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.jac5.com/home">http://www.jac5.com/home</a> also do T-shirts and a few accessories, the designs are simple but effective and capture the essence of what most men want and are. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">P.s This is a great website for the ladies to look at as well (when you look at the pictures below you'll know what I mean) plus anything from this website would make a fantastic B-day or X-mas present! SO GET SHOPPING <a href="http://www.jac5.com/home">http://www.jac5.com/home</a> </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now for the good bits!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />

<div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I went to White Chapel to interview Bettina MclLwraith. For those of you who are unfamiliar with her work familiarise yourself with it! </span><a href="http://www.blackdotworldarchive.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">www.blackdotworldarchive.com</span></a></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"> Bettina’s archive is a true treasure chest. Think of a collection lovingly and passionately put together over a 20 year career, mix that with vintage clothing, plus vintage pieces redesigned by Bettina into new items, chuck in some AMAZING household pieces such as, her hand made cushions and you have the Black dot world archive. It has an endless array of unique and inspiring clothing that truly sends you green with envy. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Bettina herself, is a relaxed free spirited creative all the way from Australia and her free spirited attitude and nature, filters through into how she dresses, what she stands for and how kind and approachable she is. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Bettina believes that people need to be more educated about fashion and where it comes from. Her new ‘Feed the mind’ range is there to inspire people to understand more about where things come from. Like her work, Bettina is inspirational and her passion and style oozes out of every piece she has in her archive. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">“Don’t let money stop you, nothing is everything” </span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">BlackDot world archive. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">What made you want to start your own business? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I had been in the industry for 20 years, and I thought, it’s now or never. Over my years as a Buyer I collected lots of Garments, textiles etc. I also feel that having my own business allows me to have the lifestyle that I want. For example if I want to go to Yoga or get a coffee with a friend I can. Likewise, if I feel I want to work into the early hours of the morning I can also do that. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">What is the hardest part about running your own company? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Keeping it in order because everything is constant. I do the buying, designing, press etc. It is like a juggling act, it just doesn’t stop. You need to be good at juggling.</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">What is different about your brand? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Well, It’s a different taste and style. I would say my taste is strict, bold and optimistic. I am definitely inspired by other cultures and the way that their dress is often meaningful and celebratory. I have been very inspired by my travels. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">What advice can you offer anybody who is hoping to start out in fashion? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">You have to get experience. Knuckle down and work hard. Have inspiration and people you admire. Mine was Anita Roddick (the lady who owned the Body Shop) it was the fact that her beliefs were ethical and she was supporting natural things. Look at people who really do stuff differently like Vivienne Westwood, have a role model. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">How do you promote your business? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I have a website, I blog, word of mouth, I have a Facebook page, I work with bloggers and stylists use my stuff as well. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">How do you keep up to date with trends and how does this effect your collection? </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br />
</div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">A lot of my designs and collections are my own taste, however, sometimes I have to stop and try and get things that clients will want. I always keep designers who buy from me in mind, I look at catwalks, but I always go back to my own taste and style. That’s what makes my stuff different. I often look to be inspired by fabrics, prints, the meaning of colour as I believe sometimes you need certain colours, you kind of seek them out. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />
</span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Want to see more? perhaps you need to treat yourself? Well click on this link and you will find amazingly tempting pieces</span></span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br />

I recommend for anyone interested in Art & Design to go and see this. Amazing pieces. (we managed to get free passes!) Top tip dress smart and hang around outside asking questions this is sure to get you in. If not you can go and buy the Art newspaper. There's a free ticket inside, tickets cost £20!

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #741b47;">What you will need: </span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">-Some old tights ( I used about 4 pairs). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">-A pair of Scissors.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">-And an old belt (preferably a skinny width one). </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Firstly get your belt double it over and do it up. like the photo below. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAk50A1fBn0rOvO9hN8LAxFyG4bxWMGEhLTAWatI1RIpj5Hg6LgH45rXe1KLGvfvURdN5xyx3GCwXuxESZgu10h6Iu7lAALEBpMWTvxQQwgUZ_KHnrf7O0QWOTrGkpEdk9p56zfoJmCXU/s1600/phoqqqto.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAk50A1fBn0rOvO9hN8LAxFyG4bxWMGEhLTAWatI1RIpj5Hg6LgH45rXe1KLGvfvURdN5xyx3GCwXuxESZgu10h6Iu7lAALEBpMWTvxQQwgUZ_KHnrf7O0QWOTrGkpEdk9p56zfoJmCXU/s320/phoqqqto.JPG" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Then Simply cut your tights at the toes and at the top of the leg. (we shall now call these fabric strips)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvhfr0eSirMtMtj3Y43p6y85nMvY7QENzPTd_C-Ku0iOK2jhHmeBFa3uz2DqlJ68P-fRKyzYfQ6vB9EN3GxOs6LxzdGVDDQwCJpFzLEPDLMHMRwCcTCZt0pyLauRJWyCAytMbtPI6vWRQ/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-10-06+at+19.22.39.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="242" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvhfr0eSirMtMtj3Y43p6y85nMvY7QENzPTd_C-Ku0iOK2jhHmeBFa3uz2DqlJ68P-fRKyzYfQ6vB9EN3GxOs6LxzdGVDDQwCJpFzLEPDLMHMRwCcTCZt0pyLauRJWyCAytMbtPI6vWRQ/s320/Screen+shot+2011-10-06+at+19.22.39.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Following this, it is time to start tying the ends of your 'fabric strips' into individual knots. This covers any frayed pieces of fabric and conceals the fact that you are using tights. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;">Lastly start tying all of your pieces of 'fabric strips' onto your belt (ensuring that you leave the buckle uncovered in order to undo and do up) You can create any shape you want to. I based mine on the shape of a rose.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #a64d79;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">-Start by having an idea of the design you want to put onto your top. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">-Then cut the design onto your top. (if you are not so confident, you can draw your design onto the top first and use that as a template)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;"><br />
</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: purple;">!WARNING If you DO draw the design first, make sure you don't leave any marks, I recommend using pencil for this. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">-Once you have cut your design out, it is time to get your needle and thread. </span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;"><br />
</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;">-Thread your needle through to the front of the fabric.

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #c27ba0;"> -Repeat this process around the edges of all of the wholes. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiupritpjC5MME6gLrKH6caNGTgsC9IDlM4_hSHAZequPa26QCCJqGkE65KAN_qs9HJnsSTi20NizTDLwhkXUfDkGcaGJ-2mqo8XRar-cB2sy9Et6d3FSDvtXeMCtbFulHo_s7pS9vJJOQ/s1600/21photo.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiupritpjC5MME6gLrKH6caNGTgsC9IDlM4_hSHAZequPa26QCCJqGkE65KAN_qs9HJnsSTi20NizTDLwhkXUfDkGcaGJ-2mqo8XRar-cB2sy9Et6d3FSDvtXeMCtbFulHo_s7pS9vJJOQ/s320/21photo.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br />

As I always take photographs, I find that I often forget to print or even use them! Since using this programme it has helped me to keep track and create pages filled with images that have captured a moment, not just a pose. </div><br />

This Software is for the crafty types out there. If you love scrap booking, photographs and organising you will LOVE this programme.<br />
<br />
I have always said since I had my first digital camera, that the way we look at photographs will never be the same again. I was the type of child that used to enjoy sifting through my mums photo albums and I have always loved the idea of starting my own selection of albums. However, I often take photographs and end up leaving them on the computer! As a result, I have very few physical albums. Until now!<br />
<br />
I have created a page filled with photographs of my weekend using My Memories Suite and I have fallen in LOVE! It can be as quick and easy as you want, or you have options to spend hours perfecting, organising and creating both digital and physical albums.The Larkershttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16235476915414426059noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503106900510011097.post-46976032985634561602011-09-08T09:09:00.000-07:002011-09-08T09:09:07.944-07:00Check out my new images<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2YjZafpECqBlgLJbxCw_uI7OzVBaP7u81BWt1z_K_JuhcBI4Qzc77gbKv4UNpF9eWm4_QSYRVz206vAM6UOqThukcEivs-0dol1-Z5AQbK3g349WzujXdET4cvMqCjY_BnmMy0E9vGTk/s1600/bright1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="201" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2YjZafpECqBlgLJbxCw_uI7OzVBaP7u81BWt1z_K_JuhcBI4Qzc77gbKv4UNpF9eWm4_QSYRVz206vAM6UOqThukcEivs-0dol1-Z5AQbK3g349WzujXdET4cvMqCjY_BnmMy0E9vGTk/s320/bright1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So for Woolmark I have posted two images of an outfit that I styled obviously consisting of wooly items and trying to capture the essence of what wool makes me feel. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">For me, I feel that wool represents nostalgia. It makes me think of my mum knitting me a cream wooly jumper that i used to adore! It makes me think of long walks on a frosty day and of comfort and happiness. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Why did I pick this outfit? Well, my aim was to recreate a nostalgic vibe but with a glamorous twist. I felt inspired to try a create an image that looks care free, peaceful yet edgy. When doing the shoot in the open field with all the fresh air around me I felt at peace. The cold air was chilling but the bright sun kept warming us up and creating the most romantic lighting. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

I hope my glamours twist reminds people that wool is very versatile. </div><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">So fashion by feelings is a company that promotes wearing wool. If you take a closer look to fashion related things such as retailers, magazines etc you will notice that they certainly have a presence within the fashion industry. I work at Hobbs and last week they received a fax about WoolMark and the campaign. Also in last weeks Drapers Woolmark is advertising The Wool Lab, which tells people about the A/W12-13 trends. It is running through the start of September. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
