'Bad Taste is Better than No Taste'

The slogan above is for a brand I catwalked for last year called 'Your Eyes Lie' who have a small shop in Camden and a section in the Oxford street Top Shop with the website http://youreyeslie.com/. This is one of the pictures taken at the catwalk at Proud Camden:




I went into Top Shop the other day as I am back in England for three weeks and the one in Sydney is very small and not very good, and also I had a £60 gift card to spend. This time of the year is a bad time to buy clothes due to the fact that it is too cold to start buying the spring clothes but the winter clothes are the last of the sale items so I wasn't really expecting to find anything. The reason I love the London Top Shop so much is because of the bottom floor that sells other brands and vintage clothes which is the place that I always manage to find something that I like.
The website doesn't have the two items I bought and my camera has run out of battery so I will just describe them to you for now and get you pictures at a later date.
  1. Light grey jumper with black sleeve to elbow on one arm with quote 'Wild Child - London Only - No.5' - taken from the new Chanel perfume
  2. Dark grey crop top tee with same slogan - loved the idea of it so much

The new collection theme definitely has a hint of Chanel, from these slogans to jumpers with slightly deformed Chanel logos.

Definitely one of my buys of the week!
