Plato’s Atlantis

Okay, so i’ve tried to write a nice cohesive, to the point yet descriptive little paragraph bout 5 times now, but nothing. So im just going to say; Alexander McQueen’s lates collection, Plato’s Atlantis, is amazing, stunning and jaw dropping (i know they mean the same but i just like the ring jaw dropping has to it). McQueen has astounding eye for colour, texture and intricate detail, which i personally am really inspired by. Take a look for yourself. To me, this mix of animal, jungle and futuristic styles is really intriguing. Apparently, McQueen was “casting an apocalyptic forecast of the future ecological meltdown of the world” he stated that “Humankind is made up of creatures that evolved from the sea, and we may be heading back to an underwater future as the ice cap dissolves.”

Though his prediction may be a little far-fetched, I love what he has created.

summer reads

I always see or hear about books that sound brilliant, and I immediately decide i will read them (in the hours of spare time that I’ll magically find somewhere, of course) but each time, I manage to forget about them. Summer passes, and I’ve read Harry Potter for 8th time..

So, I’ve decided to be pro-active this summer. Im going to write a list. Lists are brilliant. I write them for almost everything. Seems a bit unfair if i don’t write one for books too. I plan to read the following over summer. Okay, maybe not all of them, but a least a couple.

And finally, because i feel I lead a deprived childhood without it;

They’re not in any particular order, just a general list.
Hopefully, i read at least one of these..
