A day at the beach.

The best days out are the spontaneous ones, close to home. Living in Cornwall is fantastic.
















Look at that bunch! My friends are wonderful.

Dan and I made a fort. Our hands were sandy which was annoying but it fit us in snugly and looked so cute!





Despite being old enough to know better, piggyback races are fun and so we do them. An evening well spent.

Just a quicnic.

Yesterday, me and two of my girls took a short drive to  beautiful mine called Killifreth. I brought along Stig and  some leftover wine and food from my parents' meal the night before and we had a classy picnic on the grass by the old engine house.

Look it's Meryl Streep! Oh no, just Linzi in her gorgeous dungarees. Her ability to pull off old-school clothing is second to none.

Jenny's hair changes colour weekly. I love how red and rich it looks in the sunlight here. I wonder how long it will last.

The spontaneous days in the sun are the most enjoyable. It's great to share good food, giggles and glorious weather with my favourite girls.

Textiles coursework photo shoot.

For my coursework piece, I made an armor inspired outfit from different animal parts. I have such great friends in textiles, two of which were extremely useful when it came to presenting the piece in the best possible way.

Alex has been one of my best friends since primary school. She also, handily, is a size 4 so could wear my piece fabulously.















Sarah and I met in Redruth School. As an aspiring makeup artist, she could get an entry in her portfolio and help me out HUGELY. She did a fantastic job with the makeup.





















Getting Alex dressed was the hardest part. When the outfit was on the mannequin it was easy to pull on and off but when it was a real person it weirdly became challenging. Before long Alex was dressed and photo ready.

Doesn't she look glam! Sarah did such a great job with the makeup, hair and nails. Alex posed so beautifully too. My piece has been shown off to the max!

So after this shoot, I printed the best photos onto calico and over-locked around the outside in gold cotton. Coursework complete!
