this amazing dress was posted on dandy horse this morning and reminded me of a skirt that I wore to my emerging designers exhibition a couple of months ago.






i love maxi skirts, they always feel so glamorous!

(please excuse the hair - i need a haircut!)

wordle

the lovely gala linked to a fun website today called wordle which could waste far too much of my time! :) here is the one that i whipped up fairly quickly. i think i'm going to do what gala did and put it on my desktop, its a nice positivity lift whenever i look at it.

what i'm wearing 01

first outfit post! this is my favourite section of most of the blogs that i read so i'm envisaging that this will be quite a prominent feature here too. please note that this is not a desperate cry for affirmation, just a way to share my personal style with anyone interested. i'm excited, yay!

the big bad world of blogging

welcome! this whole first post thing is a bit awkward, so i guess i'll just explain myself briefly.

i have been wanting to do the fashion blog thing for a while, but didn't because i figured i didn't have much else to contribute to the blogging world that isn't already out there. then i thought, 'well, why not, i'll do it just for me if for no one else'. so i've been waiting for uni holidays and they are finally here! hence - aubergine is born *cheer*

so i doubt this thing will be strictly limited to fashion, i'm inspired by many numbers of things - i guess i'll just use this space to share the things i love.

here goes....
