You're in my eyes

"Do you think you miss the things you love, or love the things you miss?"

I must admit, that I love the show 'Skins'. Despite the hatred of it by many, for being all about drugs and such, I inexplicably love it. I'd have to say the main reason I got hooked on it though, is Cassie Ainsworth. The character, played by Hannah Murray, is just the perfect amount of crazy, and she has the most lovely style. She is one of my favorite style icons of our generation. I love her mix of vintage, sailor tops, Kurt Kobain sunglasses, white dresses, sparkly overknee stockings, and gold shoes. She really just wore whatever she felt like and it was nice. Most of the clothing came from the actress' own closet as well.



Oh my, the gold shoes. Confession: After watching the show about a year ago, my obsession with them began, and it hasn't ended since! It all started with a mad internet hunt for the perfect gold tap shoes (which they spray painted for her on the set), of which I found a pretty good vintage version...and since I have retrieved 2 other pairs off of ebay. I need to be stopped.


When I backordered some issues of Lula a few months ago, I was so happy to find this editorial with Hannah in it. She is hard to find these days, as Skins has since moved on to a second generation of characters (strangest thing ever!), and are now moving onto a third. Anyways, this is one of my favorite editorials, and I never tire of looking at it. I love the mix of prints and styles along with her crazy hair, it just suits her so well. Oh, and I want that hat, haha!
