Neglected already, tsk tsk

Hmm, with a measly two posts, this poor page is already feeling neglect.  I think the reason I update so infrequently is not that I don't have a whole lot to blog, but it's the filtering of material and self-censorship (yes, I am THAT controversial) that occurs before the words have a chance to get banged out.  That, laziness and the secret hope that the blog will somehow write itself.  I could ask myself, why am I bothering to keep a blog if it's such a chore?  Why does anyone keep a blog?  I suppose for some it's a daily journal, a means of self promotion, a way to keep friends in the loop, or a platform to share your passions with others who have the same.   The purpose of my blog probably encompasses all of the aforementioned, but since my followers currently consist of one person, who coincidently is married to me, I might just stop typing and have a face to face conversation (about blogging or something else, not quite sure yet) with him.

Neurotica ASOS Marketplace Shoot

Today was spent out and about in Bethnal Green with the lovely ladies from fashion label, Neurotica, shooting for their ASOS Marketplace launch.  Cold though it was, we managed to keep our spirits up with layers of vintage capes and knitwear, cafe stops and Quavers.

A bit slow on the uptake in the world of of blogging, but hopefully not too late to join the party (and on a Saturday night, no less)! Here's to more equally exciting posts *clinks glasses*.
