Supreme Neoprene

Ok, so first off I have to publicly apologise to Ruari for taking the piss out of his cheapo neoprene iPad case because only days later I developed a deep yearning for one of my own. No, not an iPad case; a handbag. I had no idea where one would find a neoprene handbag so, of course, I went straight to eBay where I found this Birkin-style Leghila Neoprene B Bag currently at £180 no bids with 4d 22h left.

here's the link

I really didn't expect to find any handbags made of neoprene, let alone a designer one; clearly I'm not as fashion-forward as I like to think. What? I've been out of the fashion blogging scene for a while ok? Give me a break.
Anyway, here are some I've found and now want:

They make shoes out of it too!

ASOS £15


Still can't decide whether I love or hate these boots:

I think I'm going to draw the line at clothes made of it (other than wet suits of course); a girl can have too much of a good thing. It must be super fun to design clothing and accessories out of it though because it's both stiff and malleable, so many possibilities. Hmm, I wonder if it's cheap? Maybe I could make a bag of my own...?
 DIY ALERT! DIY ALERT!   


Ruari's next birthday present perhaps?
Marc Jacobs £43.76 (endless.com)

p.s I just realised that I need make it clear that Ruari has an iPad 3, not just an iPad, otherwise he'll get mad.

So, it's been a while.

Indeed it has. I stopped blogging when I was frantically putting together my portfolio for uni, I got in by the way (!), and just haven't picked it up until today. But I'm here now and I'm going to ease myself back into it. Here goes.
