My love for Betsey Johnson

Every time I see images of Betsey Johnson it brings a smile to my face, her attitude to design and life is such a breath of fresh air.


Some people in the industry can been seen as serious and snobby, but Betsey just seems to inject fun and colour into everything.


Obviously I don't know her as a person so I don't know what goes on behind closed doors, but the personality that comes across from her catwalks and designs is so inspiring. 


As a designer she is one of a few I really look up to. I'll always admire and look up to anyone that has made it in the fashion industry, but there are certain ones I find more inspirational then others, and Betsey is one of them! She just seems so fun!

Here are a few of my favourite designs currently for sale on her website: http://betseyjohnson.com

The 1950s style is so beautiful, I will always love it, it has to be one of my favourites, its so classy and elegant and you can always add you own spin to it, what do you think of what Betsey has done?



I have a necklace similar to this as I love photography, this one is so much nicer than the one I have, I can see it being a treat at some point haha :). 



What do you think of Betsey Johnson, and which design of hers is your favourite? Get commenting and let me know!

Screen Printing - Bitmapping

So the other day at uni we learnt a little tip to add depth to our screen prints, its called bitmapping First load the image you want to use in photoshop Heres mine - its something I'm looking at using for mothers day The you'll need to convert you image to Grayscale - to do this go to [Image] [Mode] [Grayscale] You'll then need to adjust the contrast of the image to help add depth later - to do this [Image] [Adjustment] [Levels], play around with the slider until you get the desired effect - you can also use [Brightness/contrast] but I prefer Levels Your image must be a minimum of 150ppi, although it is better to be 300ppi. To adjust the number of pixels within your image select [Image] [Image Size] and you can change the resolution Now its time to Bitmap the image - to do this go to [Image] [Mode] [Bitmap] - this will open this window change all of the settings to be the same as those in the image. Depending on your type of screen mesh you may need to adjust the...

10 Most Shocking Tennis Outfits Ever

This week sees the start of Wimbledon and as Wimbledon is the smartest, most well dressed tournament there is, I thought it would be fun if we looked back at some of tennis' biggest fashion blunders. At number 10 we have Anne White from Wimbledon, it may have been 1985 Anne but that doesn't excuse turning up in your pyjamas to work. Next up we have tennis' very own Lady Gaga, Bethanie Mattek, who is famous for her outrageous dress sense, although this outfit from the 2007 US Open is relatively tame for her. At number 8 we have the five times Wimbledon champion Serena Williams with her biker inspired look from the Australian Open in 2004. Nice shin pads Serena. At number 7 sees Bethanie again, this time dressed as a cowgirl at the 2005 US Open. You're playing tennis Beth, not attending a fancy dress party!  Bethanie is still holding on to the title of worst dressed tennis player at number 6, sporting this design from Alex Nomble at Wim...

Roberto Cavalli Fashion Illustrations

While I was a Fashion and Textiles Design student I was forever looking for the top designer's fashion illustrations, as I always found them so inspirational. I've recently stumbled across some I really love by Roberto Cavalli, so I thought I share them with you. This first two are designs made for Cindy Crawford and Georgia May Jagger, and they are amazing. Copyright of Roberto Cavalli This one below is for the lovely Sharon Stone. The snake back detail will look incredible, and adds a perfect little twist to the classic strapped back/backless dress. The next one was designed for Liu Wen, and it's my favourite. The colour and the indication of the pattern are beautiful. I love the expressive lines of the design and how subtle shading shows how the dress will fall. You could only expect the best from an amazing designer like Roberto Cavalli and he definitely delivers. Copyright of Roberto Cavalli There is no need to try and imagine how the finishe...
