I'm thumpin'! That's why they call me Thumper! - Outfit

Bambi Jumper - Primark £10
H&M leggings - £7.99
Topshop boots - £42

Astrix boots Topshop - £42

Favourite jumper ever alert! Just like the Givenchy Bambi jumper, but a FRACTION of the price. It cost me a tenner from Primark! I know, amazing. I actually prefer the Primark version to be honest, not only because I could afford it. 

I wore it simply with leggings and my Topshop boots. Whatcha think?

The future's bright the furture's TMRW

TMRW is a brand new independent quarterly magazine, aimed at the modern professional, it's packed full of new music and the latest fashion. The first issue looks amazing, with it's modern, minimalistic and fresh look and it feels great too, so what more could you want?

Oh that's it; some great content, including interviews that aren't written in Q&A format, which is a breath of fresh air! Seeing as a lot of the magazines out on the shelves are mostly question and answer based.

TMRW magazine, issue 1

Being an independent magazine, they really have helped support other independent companies throughout the pages of the zine. Including UK clothing company hype and premium head wear brand jelly and cream.

The magazine seems to have a great community involved with it, from Joe Brine (@joebrine) the creator of TMRW to the people who write articles for them. Mainly written by aspiring journalists which is great as it gives them a new platform in the difficult journalism world. 

I love the feel of the magazine (I'm all about the haptics!) it has great print quality and the photography looks amazing, and fits in with the look of the magazine. 

Please ignore my weird hand...

This zine has something for everyone, from Caggie Dunlop from Made In Chelsea talking about her new singing career and Oliver Proudlock also from MIC but instead talking about his T-shirt brand Serge De Nimes. This is great because they could have easily gone down the television route, however they decided to take a different angle. This is all in their debut issue, along with some interesting content and no 'horoscope section' in sight! 

(don't get my wrong, I love a good horoscope, but that's what I have company for)

 The second issue includes many things including the indie pop London based band; Bastille along with new clothing brand 'Friend or Faux' and singer from The Voice - Tyler James on the cover.

You can buy it now (HERE) where you can purchase it for £3 which is a great price for a quarterly magazine. 

I really hope TMRW carry on giving a breath of fresh air to the magazine community and have many issues in their repertoire. I can't wait to get my paws on the second issue!

Marilyn...

Marilyn... by megannorris featuring leather high heels

This week I have been burying my head in loads of books about Marilyn Monroe. This is for my fashion muse essay at uni. She is such a fascinating person to read about, she really was a beautiful woman.

The amount of photographs in these books is insane, they show Marilyn in so many different lights from cheeky and fun to serious and even worried. 

The inspiration for this outfit is taken from the most iconic photograph of Marilyn, from the film: 'The seven year itch'.

The outfit is very simple, as you don't need much to recreate such an iconic scene. The dress is from Topshop; the shimmer skater dress which is £48. The shoes are from ASOS.com called Peter Jensen Simple White Heeled Sandals and they are a lot more expensive, however this is quite a bit trend coming in for summer so they hopefully will be in New Look amongst other high street shops very soon.

Day vs. Night

I saw this dress on topshop.com and I need it in my life, seeing as I can dress it up or easily dress it down, why wouldn't you want it?

The day look is made up of simple accessories, I went for brown as it is easy to add colours too if you want to. I decided on bangles as this dress needs some sort of jewelry, you could wear a necklace with this dress as well. You could easily put this with cute flat brogues or day slippers for an even more casual look.

For the night outfit, I added a blue belt and blue shoes, this was teamed with a beautiful gold clutch, you could also have a gold long pendant with this dress as it has a long body.

Both outfits are easy to wear, and I love how you can wear this outfit for a whole day and just add a different belt to change the look completely!
