I'm going to summer school at Oxford Royale Academy [check them out here] and while there we have two costume parties and for our graduation the theme is the 1920s.

Step back to one of the most glamorous eras of the 20th century!Dance the charleston, pose for a picture in a 20s car and try to grabthe cash in our stock market-themed cash cube. Spend an evening in aGatsby-esque haze of revelry, all against the backdrop of the stunningRandolph Hotel. 

I, being me, have never watched the Great Gatsby so I decided to do some research so here's twenty 20s party outfit ideas...

(here I kinda gave up...)

Today I had a BNTM marathon and therefore am now an expert. This is what I learned would consider essential to be a top model...

1. Keep Your Skin Clear



You need to be able to work the camera, with or without make-up. Work it with no makeup just like Queen B.

2. Have a Healthy Diet



Well, not really but a poor diet can cause breakouts, or weight gain or just generally feeling awful.

3. Stay Toned


It's important to stay in shape when a model, sometimes clothes can be unforgiving so staying toned can be important.

4. Show Versatility


The ability to be able to pull off different looks can be very important. It can get you editorial shoots or high fashion shoots letting you get more jobs. Also, no one wants to see the same expression every time so change it up like the Queen.

5. Be Adventurous with your Moves


The larger the variety of positions the more likely it is that you'll get the jobs.

6. Embrace Your Personality 


So if you're planning to go into modelling live a fit and healthy lifestyle and be adventurous with your poses including your face and inject personality and expression into everything and you should ace it.

Sorry for no post yesterday I got hit in the head at the end of PE yesterday and my vision went blurry and kept going really weird. So in my few (many) hours off temporary craziness, I started playing Pokemon Go and was therefore too busy to write a post.

Disclaimer: I'm making this more (I-don't-even-know-what-the-word-is) than it actually was but playing Pokemon was actually quite fun and I looked like a retard but I made some new friends.

I dragged my friend Cat around with me who doesn't know what Pokemon is 

How? Well that's still a mystery to me...

And I actually did get hit by all ball at the end of PE though and it hurt like hell...

Today, I had my first Saturday off since maybe February and what would a girl who has the penultimate musical theatre exam next week, you may ask?

Absolutely nothing.

Lie detected actually I watched 3 cycles of Britain's Next Top Model, while pigging out on cheese and crackers, bourbon creams and coconut rings.

Sorry I've been lazy and not written anything of value I just felt bad for not saying hi...

Today, in Britain, we just got a new Prime Minister, our 53rd and the 2nd female in British History, Theresa May. And she may be the leader of the conservative party but her fashion sense is anything but reserved. I hope I'm still pushing the fashion boundaries like her when I'm almost 60.

When I saw Theresa May today, I realised that this powerful woman has an seriously awesome sense of style...

First Outfit as Prime Minister

 Then I saw this suit that blew my mind. As a rule, I hate flares but man she can pull them off well...

Parliament Chic

Can I wear wellies to school, because I would love these in leopard print...

Wellies to Work

Her outfits look like they've come straight off the catwalk...

Every woman needs a designer coat

And she knows how to dress young, but not too young that it's cringe worthy; I would totally wear this outfit...


And with a woman so fashionable and work-focused, I believe our country will be in good hands...

Hey, I'm Charlz and I've been developing this blog for months but have always been procrastinating with the first post.

But today I was eating ice cream in the rain with a jumper on my head (the British weather is never reliable) on the way to dance [because that's what normal people do] and thought that if I can embarrass myself in a town centre then I can definitely effectively do it online.

So eating ice cream in the rain led me to hear this genius line from Megan (@meganwalker890)....

And that eating ice cream in the rain is the key to mental success...
