Baby

                      I really can't stay

                                                      I've got to go away

                                            whining and get on with it.

Virginity

Blind

                                                                                          They say love is blind...

                                                                          But believe me, love is insane.

Fool.

Gareth Pugh

 Gareth Pugh is one of my favourite fashion designers. 

He morphs and distorts the human figure to beyond recognition by adding extended shoulders, balloons and giant ruffs to accentuate to models joints and limbs.

 I love the leggings and shoes in this collection. 

These pieces (above and below) were inspired by the struggle between light and dark. 

The music in some of his collections is Gary Glitter pop music which represents the light and dark theme again with a glam pop star that turned out to be a paedophile.

 I love the shape this one adds to the body. 

Also the eyelashes are three dimensional showing the dark front but as the model comes forward it reveals the light white side. 

The hair is styled with gelatine to give it a wet look and gelatine was used because you can't use oil as it will wreck the clothes and water is dangerous in the vicinity of electric neon bulbs. (above)

 The latex suits really help me to see the clothes as a separate piece of art rather than an accessory to a human.

 I love the angularity of his work. I see most of it like the grid pattern of a city and the architectural aspect comes into it as well.

 These two designs are made entirely of cloth and thousands of safety pins. 

Again I love the style of the dress above and the pattern he creates with the rows of pins.

 The transition between the Summer and Winter collections is faint because Gareth Pugh is very certain what works and what his vision is which I find very inspiring.

 Both of these outfits are made of zips, which is another example of how creative Gareth Pugh is with what materials he uses. In the past he has used parachute silk, electrically charged plastic to create a glow in the dark coat, balloons, latex suits, perspex chain mail and synthetic hair.

The spectacle he creates will set the atmosphere for the entire collection so Gareth Pugh usually creates a fun atmosphere by blocking the entrance to the runway with a giant pulsing balloon which pop and reveals the first model. He has also covered the runway with a flowing, shivering, undulating piece of fabric on which the models precariously hobble onto.

Smile

                           I have figured out that if I smile,
                                                                            Then someone else smiles,
                                                                                                                      The whole world,

SEEMS TO SMILE!

Pass it on

The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - that you'd thought special, particular to you. And here it is, set down by someone else, a person you've never met, maybe even someone long dead.

And it's as if a hand has come out...

                                                                                and taken yours.



Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day.

Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn.

                                                                                               Pass it on.

Four cold walls against my will

At least I know she's lying still

Four cold walls without parole

Lord have mercy on my soul

All of these words whispered in my ear,
Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear,
Just 'cause I said it, it don't mean I meant it,
People say crazy things

Next time I'll be braver
I'll be my own savior
Standing on my own two feet

I cant bear this time
It drags on as I lose my mind
Reminded by things I find
Like notes and clothes you left behind

I heard his voice today
I didn't know a single word he said
Not one resemblance to the man I met
Just a vacant broken boy instead

Day is coming we won't be apart
Hope you realize you got my heart

Blank stairs blank pages, no easy way to say this
You mean well but you make this hard on me,

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited,
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it,
I had hoped you'd see my face,
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over, 

Never mind, I'll find someone like you,
I wish nothing but the best for you, too,
Don't forget me, I beg,
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love,
But sometimes it hurts instead," 

We were born and raised in a summer haze,
Bound by the surprise of our glory days, 

Nothing compares,
No worries or cares,
Regrets and mistakes, they're memories made,
Who would have known how bitter-sweet this would taste?

Wait, do you see my heart on my sleeve?
It's been there for days on end and
It's been waiting for you to open up

You should know that you're just a temporary fix
This is not rooted with you it don't mean that much to me
You're just a filler in the space that happened to be free
How dare you think you'd get away with trying to play me

I'd build myself up,
And fly around in circles,
Wait then as my heart drops,
and my back begins to tingle
finally could this be it


You grace me with your cold shoulder
Whenever you look at me I wish I was her
You shower me with words made of knives
Whenever you look at me I wish I was her

And every time I’m meant to be acting sensible
you drift into my head
and turn me into a crumbling fool.

Pacing floors and opening doors,
hoping you’ll walk through
and save me boy,
because I’m too crazy for you.
Crazy for you

Right under my feet there’s air made of bricks
Pulls me down turns me weak for you
I find myself repeating like a broken tune 
And I’m forever excusing your intentions
And I give in to my pretending

So little to say but so much time,
despite my empty mouth the words are in my mind.

Forgive me first love, but I’m tired.
I need to get away to feel again.
Try to understand why, don’t get so close to change my mind.
Please wipe that look out of your eyes, it’s bribing me to doubt myself;
simply, it’s tiring.

When the rain is blowing in your face,
and the whole world is on your case,
I could offer you a warm embrace
to make you feel my love.

When the evening shadows and the stars appear,
and there is no one there to dry your tears,
I could hold you for a million years
to make you feel my love.

I'd go hungry; I'd go black and blue,
I'd go crawling down the avenue.
No, there's nothing that I wouldn't do
to make you feel my love.

I could make you happy, make your dreams come true.
Nothing that I wouldn't do.
Go to the ends of the Earth for you,
to make you feel my love

I thought I knew myself, somehow you know me more
I've never known this, never before 

Favouritism ain't my thing but,in this situation I'll be glad to make an exception

You said I'm stubborn and I never give in
I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening
You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that 

I've been walking in the same way as I did
Missing out the cracks in the pavement
And tutting my heel and strutting my feet
"Is there anything I can do for you dear? Is there anyone I can call?"
"No and thank you, please Madam. I ain't lost, just wandering"

I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque
I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades
I like it in the city when two worlds collide
You get the people and the government
Everybody taking different sides...

You and Me

Me and you singing on the train,

Me and you listening to the rain,

Me and you we are the same

Me and you have all the fame

We need; indeed,

You and me are we.

Me and you singing in the park

Me and you light candles in the dark

Me and you we are the spark

We'll watch that light just make an arc

To say someday

There will be a better way.

Me and you were waiting for the dawn

Me and you and all the places we've gone

Me and you, sitting on the lawn

Me and you just singing a song;

A rhyme to shine

And to pass the time.

Me and you singing to all

Me and you were not so small

Me and you can stand up tall

Me and you just having a ball

Happy to be

You.....and Me

-Anne Frank

We all live with the objective of being happy, our lives are all different and yet the same

Laugh

I think I laugh more times than I
                                            breathe in a day.

But if you can't handle me at my worst, 

then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."
