My December.

For me, December is my busiest and most exciting month - my birthday, Christmas and New Year are all in the space of a couple of weeks. This year however, my December was massive; it was my 21st!

My first party was on my actual birthday at the Islington Metal Works in Angel - if you have any kind of event that you need a venue for, I couldn't recommend this place enough. The owner, Dette, is such a pro, and caters to every single detail to make your shindig awesome. Plus, look how sick the venue itself is:

(this was before everyone arrived, I swear I'm not a loser with no friends)

It was absolutely incredible - open bar, food, and the awesome Chris Campbell of DrDr DJ'd. Such a sick night! 

My next party was a cocktail party with my family and friends; it was initially meant to be relatively smart and classy, however things soon got a little crazier when my uncle started handing out jager shots. Never thought I'd see the day where I'd have to keep up with my family members, but there you go!

I've been looking forward to my 21st for so long that now it's all over I can't help but feel a little sad. And old! I am so lucky to have such awesome friends and family who celebrated with me, I feel well special.

Two birthdays meant 2 dresses (of course). Here's what I wore:

Part 1:

Dress - Freak of Nature (hands down my favourite brand ever!)
Shoes - Nike

Earrings - ASOS

Not gonna lie, this is probably one of my favourite items of clothing I own. Wearing it made me feel like Iggy Azalea!

I also totally recommend these Nike Sky Highs if you want a snazzier pair of trainers to go clubbing in. I was literally non-stop boogying for a good 5 hours and, despite them having a bit of a heel, felt no foot pain at all. Plus they're beaut. Liberty has recently done a new range of limited edition Sky Highs with sick patterns on if you don't want just a block colour.

Part 2:

Dress - ASOS
Shoes - Iron Fist (I want every pair of Iron Fist shoes ever made)

Didn't manage to get any individual shots of me with this outfit but I love this dress/shoe combo so much that I wanted to share anyways! I love the mesh/thigh split in this dress. These shoes were bought for me by my lovely boyfriend for my birthday a few years ago. I pointed them out to him saying that they would be the shoes I would wear to my first ever film premier - he remembered and bought them for me! I'm crap at heels and yet I managed to last pretty long in these - the platform definitely helps. Plus, they have frickin' wolf teeth on them. Sick as.

I hope you all had fab Christmases/Hanukkahs/Holidays - there'll be many more posts to come in the New Year!

Baby It's Cold Outside.

So I was lucky enough to do a shoot with the lovely Katy Cummings last week. I absolutely love her style and concepts so when I saw her tweet about wanting to do some testing I seized the opportunity immediately and we organised a shoot.

It was completely different to anything I have done before - I think if I were to tell my 16 year old self that a) I would become a plus size model and b) I would do a shoot in just a jumper and heels, my 16 year old self would probably laugh in disbelief! 

Not only was this shoot awesome because of Katy's sick shooting skills, but it has also reminded me of how far I've come. I used to be so unhappy with my body and my self image when I was younger; I forever felt like I wasn't good enough. I've now finally learnt how to love myself and the skin I'm in, and even have some self confidence. 

Here are the results of the shoot - it was so difficult to choose just a couple to show you all.

I hope you like them!

Kids with Guns.

So I had the pleasure of working with the TrueMobster team on one of their short videos.

After being picked up from Eastbourne station in the 'Bentley' we made our way to the set and from there my chilled Sunday morning escalated pretty quickly - when I knew that I would be doing filming on a Sunday morning, I most definitely didn't expect that I would be tied up, untied and then re-tied up again!

We had an awesome time filming, despite it being freezing cold and me not exactly being dressed appropriately for the weather.  It was however a bit of a worry how being a bitchy hostage seemed to come a little bit too naturally to me...

I had a sick time filming - thanks again to everyone at Truemobster for having me!

And here's a little bit of me behind the scenes:
