Amazing photos from an amazing place...

All these images were taken on a super cheap disposable camera and have a somewhat eerie look to them. It was a very odd place with lots of personal items and photos left behind, I dont know what happened here and probably never will. It was amazing to hunt through all the things that had been left, but also very sad and touching to think that was someones life and it has just been left to decay.  








Cheap vintage!

The other day after work I went into Blackburn town center for a hunt in the charity shops and found this for anly £6.99, yes £6.99! However I decided against it because I didnt like the shoulder shape, I know I look terrible, but I had just finished work. (Also forgive my work shoes too!)




Its all tartan and checks

So Vivienne Westwood has been doing it for ages, but its only recently hit the headlines in fashion as a key trend and now every shop I pass on the high street has tartan in its window. Personally this is a new fashion that I absolutely love! I do a more grunge version than the image above, but I love its introduction to the fashion world again.

How easy is it to get this trend, well very I have found. Its simple with just a checked shirt.

For just £31.49 this shirt is available, either throw it on with a leather skirt as sown above or with black skinny jeans rolled up.

I have managed to achieve the tartan and checks look with an old vintage mens shirt, costing only £2 in a charity shop, real bargain.

Another key tartan purchase made was a £19.99 scarf from Zara yesterday, as soon as I saw it I fell in love, it was on the pricey side for me, but its a good winter investment (well thats what Im telling myself anyway). 



It is double sided with black and white on one and the red and blue tartan on the other. Safe to say Im in love and havnt taken it off since I bought it.

New Blog

So Ive set up this new blog for everything to do with fashion and my urbexing experiences. Posts will range from new purchases to magazine cutting and high street fashion. I will also be posting about any urbexing I do. My previous blog was www.meganmorganart.blogspot.com and was about my year doing Foundation Art and Design, I now have a place at Northumbria to do Fashion Design, but it is deferred for a year so that I can earn some dosh. Hope you enjoy an insight into my life.
