Just because I was convinced that the colour was draining out of my life spending all day in a bat-ridden cave I decided to take Ellen’s invitation and crawled out today (AH SUNLIGHT, IT BURRRNS!!). I believe the best thing that brings the colours back to your life is dodging sales assistants in John Lewis while taking covert pictures of, you won’t believe it, fabric. I don’t get why it’s not allowed – what, am I going to use the photos to replicate the art of sorting zippers and ribbons? Or do I look like I don’t have enough of a life to plan a terrorist attack on a floor full of rich housewives? Actually the last bit is quite intriguing. BOOM go the annoying Chihuahuas.

I’m just JOKING for those with any allegiance to John Lewis, rich housewives and the art of ribbon sorting. I would also gladly take the photos down if you wish, just email no@not-really.com, and mind your manners please.

With all that said, I love John Lewis, rich housewives and sorting ribbons!

Are you blind yet? Sorry about the pictures, the yellow is overburnt – which really can’t be helped when you have Lightsabres as legs, you could cut steak with my shins.

Who takes your pictures? [Mira]

In London 85% of the time my friend Ellen takes my outfit pictures, 10% done by my bf, and then an occasional 5% by my brother. In Poland my mother and brother share the privilege of snapping (at) me.
All the DIY tutorial photos and photos taken inside my flat are done with my minion tripod and an army of  kittens. (They braid my hair on my pee break)

What is your favourite kind of breakfast? [Shin]

Pot roast? I’m not much of a breakfast person but when I do have one I think my favourite will always be very fruity pancakes + maple syrup combo – good healthy dose of sugar to jumpstart the day.

What’s your favourite colour? [Chloe]

Yellow. I guess it sort of defines my personality, you know, CAUTION, HAZARDOUS..etc.

How do you put your outfits together? [M]

I always start off with one statement item, be it in shape or colour – then I run around the flat half naked trying to build on top of that. I think once you have your big piece, everything else will fall in with all the necessary basics. Although, problem arises when I start out with a basic piece, then I end up changing 4 times and running out late without shoes. I suck at accessorizing so depending on outfit I either skip it alltogether or take way too long trying to untangle a necklace that sucks to begin with.

Quick post today.

Many of you precious readers asked what camera I’m using. I use a Canon 400D and a family of lenses that I collected over teaching myself how to use the camera. Most importantly, all the photos in the blog taken by my camera are fed through photoshop first to crop and adjust brightness, colour and saturation. I have this image of freshly taken photos as red, blood dripping raw meat which needs to be cooked thoroughly before being served. Obviously like steak, this also depends on how well done you want it and I personally like it medium well done. Also remember, overcooking leads to burning, which leads to fire, which leads to a housefire, which can lead to a forest fire, which leads to national disaster, which may lead to THE END OF THE WORLD. Underlining moral: don’t crank up the saturation.

I’m always open to give help and advice!

(yes I do realise the sidebar is a bit broken, it just happened on its own so I’m gonna see if it’ll go away on its own…)

All-nighter again. Thanks scarf, that was a good nap in the train, good pillow. I dream of being horizontal and snoring.
