Cowgirl King Of The Rodeo

Last month i treated myself to a black leather fringed bag, thinking this was going to be one of my tossed on the whiltering bag stand of endless leather in the corner of my room jobs, I was gladly mistaken!

You know when you get one of those days where you actually look like 'this seasons spring summer look that you have got down to T' and didn't even realise.. 'what this old maxi skirt cropped jumper combo with additional fringed bag and suede shoes' Didn't even know it was in Vogue! Well i had it the other day, felt pretty good.

Once then realising that Rodeo/Wild Wild West/American Pie was a trend setting and slighlty appealing to ones eye who can only physically put on black look, i thought how fun it would be to dress up in gingham dresses and cowboy boots or you could totally rock a fringed jacket over maxi dresses. Easily a summer must thanks to these guys i'm lusting over anything Wild Wild West especially as i can only think of Will Smith while saying it, 'we going straight to the wild wild west'!

How You Dazzle & Shine

Crisp, fresh, clean cut and oh so desirable can only be the colour white. A big hit on the runways on the highstreet and if your not wearing it this summer well 'crise de la mode' comes to mind. Designers such as Stella McCartney, Alice By Temperley, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Adam even McQueen.

Only usually pulled off by the cultured women of the world, white being high profile this summer anybody and everybody is on the bandwagon. White shirts worn with cigerette trousers, maxi dresses worn with tan leather accessories or white t-shirts worn with neon skirts.

Well Today Just Happened,

You know when you have those conversations that randomly pop out of the midnight sky, well i had one the other day: 'Have you ever seen/meet anyone famous in the normal world?' normal being doing things we do normally? The most famous person i've seen is jonathon ross's brother, Paul. Hummm, well anyway the other reeled out a list, yeah alright i get it.

Well today i can totally add to my list Ellie Goulding & Greg James! Outside That Indie Look on a dismal sunday afternoon, amazing i actually couldn't believe it and thought humm, slightly overhydrated with a russians favourite maybe i'm going under. Nope definitely real life, the craving for subway,greggs & a salmon sarnie due to a side effect of a russian favourite will not leave me alone.

In other news, i have stopped smoking, feeling healthier i hear you cry, nope thanks for asking. Also i'm rocking the Lady Capulet look, never wanting to see a sticky floor again and non stop replay of this:

Party Over Here!

A lot of people are getting ready for the fashion, music, arts, dirt, tents, or 24 hr alcohol consuming! Either way festivals and summer events are not just a time to gather with your mates and have fun (even though i think it's all about that.... and the alcohol part!) for many it's the envy or smugness you feel when you are wearing that quirky yet devine maxi skrirt with trainers or the hotpants with the most tasselled poncho you have ever had eyes on. Eyes are everywhere!

Hoping for some inspiration for your holiday wardrobe, Thatindielook should be able to sort you out, from the disty floral lover, 70's bohemian godess to the dirty rock 'n' roller.. actually you don't even have to be stereotype if you just fancy a thick wolly jumper for the nights you wish you were in your bed instead of sharing a tent with a snorer, then we have it all!

Sweet & Sour?

I have a bit of a sweet tooth in comparrison to my second name. I know this is awfully stereotypical but when i was thinking of the far east i think of delicious meals and of course there inexplicable quirkiness.

I began to look at the cultural interest that the 70's had with the oriental lands, which i adore however in no way confident to pull those harajuku girls aside and tell them how to! Some don't quite get the design, emotion and destinctive elegence they allow. Thus making the argument of sweet and sour!

The Dog With The Jewelled Neck Tie!

How could i forget my Fergus, well i've called him Fergus but no one knows this yet as they possibly won't agree with the name so thats between you and i! Plus Fergus is also from the delightful Angela.

He, currently in all his royal jewelledness stands proud next to the 70's Picnic box, it was my kind of 'summer picnic weekend' that i tried to recreate in the shop window. He's sporting an array of 80's rings on a tutti frutti coloured necktie, delicious.

We have a sea of jewelled fancies, from 80's enamel earings to 70's festival necklaces and 40's pearls. Clip on, Pins, Brooches, Chains, Pendants, Cameo, we have it all!

All about Eve..

The 1950's a time of celebration, unity and more fabric! The 1950's for me the fashion is at it's delightful best, showcasing women as women in super feminin styles.

We have some uber showcasing dresses on the thatindielook website, heres a few, as a little taster!
