A TASTE OF THE BILLIE PIE.

I know I've been absent for a ridiculous amount of time but, fear not! I have returned! You guys are in for a treat this next week, for this week is dedicated to the one and only me (hence the cringe-worthy title). Of course the main focus will be fashion, but I guess you are all familiar enough with me by now to know that I do go on a bit.  As you all already know (I hope), one of my favourite things to do on this blog is interview my friends and family about the way they style/dress themselves. I think it really does connect the real world with the fashion industry, I want you to consider me as a young Morrissey*, doing the most ordinary thing because it's time ordinary people spoke out. Well, I thought if this week is about me, why not interview myself?....

How would you describe your style?

Ever changing, I don't feel that I could ever really brand myself with one sort 'style'. I don't really believe that we have to stick to one sort of trend anymore, which is great for me because I don't think I would be very accepted otherwise.

Do you have any style icons?

The thing is, I don't really have style icons, because I find everything very inspiring when it comes to fashion I can never really fixate on one or two people. For instance, I find music can have an extreme affect on my wardrobe, which I know sounds extremely pretentious but it's just one of my annoying habits. I also have little obsessions, like the club kids. 

Do you have any staple items of clothing? 

I'm a big coat person and I love my leather aviator coat that my dad gave me earlier this year and I absolutely adore my doc martens. I pretty much wear those two items everyday. They're not particularly glamorous, but neither am I. 

Are labels important to you?

I don't really hold much value to high street labels, I can tell the difference between them all, but I don't think it's necessary that if I'm going to get a pair of trainers that they have to be Nikes because quite frankly, I'm much happier to pay £20 less for a pair of dunlops. But top-end fashion is another story! I am in love with big labels like Chanel or Moschino and take time every season to look at their latest collections. 

Are there any shops you always go to?

Yes, if I'm ever shopping in town I always go into H&M and Zara, but more often than not I'll go into places like Sports Direct and Select, not because I'm sporty in any kind of way but I find that it's a really great place for pretty much anything. In short, I only really shop at the cheap ones, but not really Primark. 

Well I think I should leave it there for now, I don't want to give away too much now especially considering as it's only supposed to be a TASTE. I hope this suffices til a later date (definitely before the week ends). B.x
