plants are lazy, they just sit around all day

I love botanical-style designs at the moment. I know it was agesss ago, but Christopher Kane's SS14 collection is one of my main sources of inspiration at the moment. The annotated diagrams of plants and flowers remind me of images straight out of science textbooks. I'm a bit of a geek when it comes to biology and I kind of like that the fashion industry is too. It makes a nice change from the predictable floral designs that normally fill the Spring catwalks.

I am in love with these Christopher Kane sweatshirts but unfortunately they are really expensive *cries*. So, if you're like me and would never be able to afford them, here are some cheaper alternatives...


T-shirt - Topshop

Shirt - Lazy Oaf   (i know this is for men but i really want it)

T-shirt- Zazzle

In other news, I went to the local flea market a while ago and bought some cute postcards and mini posters of vintage botanical illustrations. I'm really happy that I bought them because they kind of suit my aesthetic at the moment.



Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend!
