Design | TBA




I had never really heard of tba, until really recently. After a quick creep on their website, I was in awe. Their collections are perfectly feminie, sweet, and even though It's an old collection, their beautiful, pretty designs really caught my eye, as well as the photos. Everything is so peachy sweet! The colour palette is just the right shades, all pinks, whites and baby soft, and the adorable, and very in style collars add to the designs. It kind of brings to mind a very victorian atmosphere to me? I guess endless lessons researching the Victorians have paid off. Just the way its all very childlike, with the little white socks, high necklines, and pleating.

So, its 2011 already. Is it just me, or did anyone else think this year went so fast? Its been an alright year, I had fun, but i haven't achieved a lot of things I wanted to. Im hoping 2011 will be incredible. One of the main things that made my year a little suckish, I guess, is that I feel a lot of pressure at my school. I think I'm going to focus on being myself, and not try and base myself on other people. A lot of the people at my school, in my year, are the kind of girls that are very... I don't know how to put it, maybe other bloggers my age understand me... very closed off? By that I mean that they judge people strongly for small reasons.
I have beautiful, amazing friends, and aim to make lots more this year, and I dont want to be pused down pretty much by other people. I just had to write that, because I feel a lot of girls my age feel this way, and knowing a lot of teenagers bloggers out there, i wanted their opinion.

But on other, more fashion-related news, who else is excited for the spring collections? I've been seeing such great looks from the high street ranging from Topshop, H&M, and even Primark, which has SERIOUSLY pulled up their socks. I love how everywhere is stocked full of pretty, vintage inspired pieces. I'm going for a more sweet look , maybe even a little 60's I think this year. Im craving a pair of cat eye glasses, and a little velvet mod dress. Panda xo

  10. i can definitely relate to you there about the girls my age. it seems in my school everybody has their own groups and don't get me wrong, my friends are amazing in their own way but it makes it hard finding other friends because of everyone's groups but i think also every group has their own style and there aren't many girls in my year who like the same things as me, if you understand where i'm coming from?!
    i hope you had a ruddy fantastic new year,
    much love,

  20. these dresses are so cute!
    and trust me, i was 14 almost 6 years ago, and i know EXACTLY what you mean, it's completely irritating and doesn't really stop until the people begin to mature the best you can do is not give a flying fuck and all your problems are solved. seriously,i found this out a bit late but it's fantastic haha

    oh yeah&you definitely should watch Empire Records i love it!

  21. Ahh really love the first three looks! All their clothes are so lovely and feminine, I'd love to purchase something from there although I can't even afford it :P Even their sale pieces are still expensive.

  22. Oh their lookbook is so lovely! I adore the 60s revival which is going on at the moment, after all it was a pretty groundbreaking era in fashion terms.
    I was sort of an outcast at secondary school, all the stereotypically cool girls were pretty much clones of eachother. I know not everyone's like that of course, but I totally get what you mean. In a way I've been feeling happier hanging out with guys lately; they're carefree, always up for a laugh and just take people as they are, it's kinda refreshing tbh.

    Hope you're having a happy new year!
