Evening everybody, how are we all? For the first ever I'm blogging from my friendly iPad which my beautiful mother bought me as a lovely Christmas surprise, so I'd like to take the time to say mum I love you and thank you for this wonderful and amazing gift, which is engraved with my name (a nice little touch my mother added there). I've been blogging for a couple of weeks now and I'm really enjoying it, but I've realised you guys no nothing about me, apart from the fact that I love to talk about fashion, so I decided to pull up one of those random blogging questionnaires and answer them, here are my answers below, enjoy.
1) Which adult person around you do you want to convert into a baby? My brother-in law
2) Name the teachers whom you would like to have as students in your class and why? For the life of me I can't remember his name but he had green eyes and he taught Geography and he was really funny and cheeky so he'd probably be a handful in class
3) Would you like to step into the shoes of Gulliver in ‘Gulliver’s Travels’? Sure, why not
4) Which alien do you love the most? Gizmo, he counts right?
5) What would you like to be- a werewolf or a vampire and why? This is such a "Twilight" question lol. I'd be a werewolf, strong, fast & warm
6) Choose your birthday gift- a tail or a pair of horns? A tail, at least I could hide it although horns seem to be a really popular look in the hair department right now
7) Which toy of yours do you want to come alive? All my sexy Harajuku dolls, we would talk about Japanese fashion all day
8) Which movie imitates your life the best? Mmmmmmm dare I say "Inception" this is all just a dream right? Because the unconscious mind says so, therefore the dream is real! Remember you are the dreamer you build your world. I am the subject my mind populates it. You can literally talk to my subconscious, that's one of the ways to extract information from the subject. By creating something secure like a...like a bank vault or a jail. The mind automatically fills it with information it's trying to protect. Confused? Go and watch the beautiful master piece by Mr Nolan.
9) According to you, which other persons should take this questionnaire? Jimmy Neutron

Celebrity Style: Kristen Stewart
We all know Kristen Stewart from the famous "Twilight" saga, I believe this women is a true wild card when it comes to fashion, although she is a tom boy at heart she is certainly not a girl to be ignored when it comes to the red carpet. Here are 3 of my favourite outfits:
Kristen looks lovely in this skin-tight orange-pink body con dress. This dress is part of the Herve Leger Spring 2009 collection.
At the 82nd Academy Awards (2009) the Twilight star ditches her tom-boy look and looks glamours in this beautiful Monique Lhuillier gown.
Here's Kristen keeping it cool and casual in head to toe denim, a simple white t-shirt and a black zip hoodie.

Takawira's 5 favourite items for January 2011
After weeks of rummaging through fashion magazines and surfing the Internet I've managed to find my top 5 favourite items for surviving this months birthdays, diners, parties and social networking events. You've gotta look good no matter where you are so here are my favourite items that I'll be splashing out on:
3) I'm loving these sexy lace shorts, great with or without tights. Will look perfect with a bright coloured blouse or a simple vest top, depending on the occasion you'll look stunning as the detail on these shorts are ones not to be missed.
1) No girl can go anywhere without a sexy blazer so here you are ladies the new and improved blazers with a twist. These blazers are perfect for dressing up any outfit, the tuxedo look is perfect for diners, dates and even galmming it up at a birthday party (but make sure you don't look better than the birthday girl/guy). You can get these style blazers from any high-street store, they come in many different colours from kaki, dusty pink, black and white etc.
2) Leopard print platform heels. I was never a big fan of leopard print and over the last year it has grown on me drastically. I think the main thing that puts me off leopard print is how people wear it and being in the area I live in (Essex if you haven't already guessed) some individuals can make it look very chavy and more of a uniform than a statement item. There are so many different types of leopard prints, when choosing the right one ladies make sure you keep it to a minimum with the rest of your outfit. I.E. If your wearing the heels above keep the rest of the outfit plain and simple (nothing too busy), if your wearing a dress keep everything simple and classic and not too much junk jewellery.
Zara Leopard print prom dress £19.99 - in store only
4) My favourite of the 5 items (I'm sure you can guess why) is this mustard leopard print dress. I love the colour and I know it will complement my skin tone, will look great with a leather biker jacket and black heels or dress it down with a black boyfriend cardigan and black ballet pumps. This dress is only available in store.
5) Keeping it simple with peg leg trousers. The best thing about these black trousers are that they are black, which means they'll go perfect with anything. For a casual look keep it simple with a plain white t-shirt, grey blazer and some colourful ballet pumps or brogues to add some colour to the outfit. For a going out look, try a strapless tube top, sky high heels and a leather jacket.
So there you have it ladies and gents my favourite items for January 2011, I know I'm buying all these, what are your 5 favourites?

Celebrity Style: Jude Law
38 year old British actor Jude Law is definitely no stranger to the spotlight. A classic Brit with his beautiful features, Jude Law is an international star with a reputation for style and being a fashion trendsetter. Because of his "pretty boy" good looks Jude Law knows to calm everything down when it comes to his clothes, his signature look has become a smart blazer with a pair of jeans and a smart trilby hat or knit cap, the casual look of not trying to hard. This why I love Jude Law because he doesn't try at all, his style is effortless, so boys if you look like this, be very thankful, this means you can put on jeans and a t-shirt and stop traffic.
Black military boots, Dior Homme jeans, grey sweater, a black sexy velvet jacket and lets not forget those classic original Wayfarer Ray Ban sunglasses.
I love this cool but smart look, skinny jeans with deep red buckled brogues and a suited look on top gives it a smart finish. This look kind of reminds me of the emo guys around Camden who dress very similar.
The last outfit we see Jude wearing is probably my favourite of the 3, this is a pure example of his ability to mix the contemporary with classic. A tailored jacket with chalk-stripe detail worn over a black sweater and underneath the sweater a simple white t-shirt. Adding detail with this red and navy scarf is what I admire about Jude, so guys if you think an outfit is looking plain just add a trilby or a scarf to give it that sophistication.
