What exactly is fashion etc with ellie?  It is honestly a question I ask myself a lot.  Sometimes when I struggle to think of what to write I think 'Well, what would I want to read?' and that is how I try to see my blog.  A real teenager writing for real teenagers.

Not a real crisis.  This is still me.  

As much as I love bloggers who review the latest YSL Lipstick, or admire Chanel's last ready-to-wear line it is a reality that although teenagers arguably have a lot of disposable income (we don't pay rent etc) how many of us will go and buy a Chanel shirt for next season?  Not many, that is how many.  Now I am not saying I don't sometimes wish I could. Merely that right now, why would I write about things I am not wearing when I could much more easily do an OOTD with the chance of inspiring someone else's outfit, by the same token I don't think I'm outrageously fashionable but I know the first thing I do when I don't know what to wear is check the blogs I follow.

But now, I am not even sure if fashion is where I want to be.  In future do I really see myself writing about fashion for a living?  Not really.  Fashion will always have a fond place in my heart but I would much rather write about current affairs and things that are on the forefront of the world's news.  It's strange, for as long as I can remember I thought I knew where I wanted to be so I stuck at it.

I'm not sure what this post was trying to achieve, but it's been a while since I wrote on here.  And that's why.

Anyone heading to Westminster Open Day this Saturday?  I'll see you there!

 So, this is the first of three posts relating the Clothes Show Live that I attended yesterday.  Today's post  features some of the stylish people I spotted, tomorrow's will be my photos of the catwalks etc, and Friday's will be my haul (I didn't buy a lot).  I though by putting all of the photos in one post it would become a little photo heavy.
