Conor Thackray - living with it

This week has been a mixture of highs and lows, the most recent low? Getting absolutely sodden walking lil knit wit to nursery today (he had enough sense to request his pram and rain cover) the most recent high? 

One of my very good friends is releasing his own album! And I had the pleasure of doing the album artwork! 


Conor is a very talented guitarist who I've known since.... Well a long dammed time! He also really likes wolves hence the artwork. 

I had great fun doing this for him , mainly because he didn't really know what he wanted , and do this idea immediately popped into my head! 

I'm a huge fan of the self release of albums, I think it's a great way for musicians to get their music heard. Speaking of which if you'd like to have a little listen to the rough drafts of his SELF WRITTEN (oh yeah, he writes himself, even one direction don't do that) songs then you can find them here : https://soundcloud.com/conor-thackray

Although if you want the super duper spiffy versions you'll need to buy the album at a very reasonably priced £3! 

And you can also find him on Facebook Conor 1N Thackray 

Can't really put into words how proud of him I am 

Much love

Party People

Does anyone remember my Moustache Bag? The one that I made during Pinterest week?
 
 
Well apart from one very indulgent selfie moment that ended up on twitter (I'm not a selfie kind of girl but this bag just begs to have silly pictures taken) It hasn't actually seen a lot of action.
 
 
Probably because I haven't seen a lot of action recently (Oi you in the back keep it clean) But I did get the opportunity to go out a while back to a very good friends 21st birthday party! And I did actually say I would put up a picture of me using it here. So better late than never here's how I wore it.
 
Prepare yourself not only am I using my "I'm so happy that I haven't had to deal with somebody else's bodily functions for a good two hours face" I am also very very pale, not pale and interesting, not porcelain doll looking. Just really really pale.
 
 
Okay so in a very fashion way
  • Tartan Jacket - New Look (years ago I think I was about 14/15 when I brought this)
  • Dress - Primark (I actually burnt the collar this week ironing it, as if I need more proof that I shouldn't iron)
  • Tights - god knows my mum probably brought them, all I know is they are ladder proof!!!
  • Hat - Vintage (My mum brought it for my brother, but I looked better in it, so I won!)
  • Purse! - I made that!
As another point my friend here happens to be a very talented guitar player so I'll let him close with one of my favourite songs. You can also find him here.
 
Much Love
 
Frankie
