Tutorial 10.

Sorry for the bad quality pictures they was taken on my blackberry.

These drawing are the cause of my current dead arm! All morning I have been sat at my desk drawing fashion figures,faces and different garments. Even though I took art GCSE and got a B I never really liked drawing that much and dreaded going to class but now studying at The British College of Professional styling I have a new found love for fashion illustration's and fashion drawing.

Tutorial 10 is all about learning how to draw fashion illustrations, they break it down step by step and explain it in such a way that makes it seem so simple.

The Equipment you need.

If you are like me and love a shirt or two then you are going to fall madly in love with Equipment, these shirts are to die for!! Prices range from £200 and above.

Wise words from one of my styling assightments: It's better to buy one expensive piece then lots of cheap ones, as they will last longer and the material will be better quialtly.

Buy online at Oxygen boutique,

If you are like me, an unempolyed student and can not afford to splash £200 on a shirt at the moment then I have found some just as cute from Topshop.

Shop online at Topshop.

Model crush - Abbey Lee Kershaw.

Meet the 24year old Australian model, Abbey Lee Kershaw.
With cheekbones to die for and reaching in at 5ft11 I think it's clear why the model has had such a successful career working with the likes of D&G, Gucci and Oscar de la Renta. No wonder the model is in high demand for campaigns, shoots and shows, just look at her.
How is it possible for one women to be so god dam beautiful.
