Fulwood London Fashion Label
There is a new cool fashion label around and it is called Fulwood London.
Fulwood London is all about street wear inspired by tattoo art, the people who wear them and the stories behind them.The pieces are beautifully designed with tattoo arts; there is a piece for every woman and man. The brain behind the fashion label is Sarah Burgan. A graduate from Ravensbourne University, Sarah has worked in various divisions of the industry throughout her career before finally deciding it was time to start-up on her own. Here is what she had to say about her new fashion label:
We believe tattoos are more than just great art, they tell us who a person is, where they have been and where they are going. People share their entire lives with us through the art on their skin, even if each tattoo doesn’t have a particular meaning there is a feeling or a moment behind it and we want to celebrate that through our clothing.There is so much incredible tattoo talent here in Britain and we love to support our artists any way we can. Each season we showcase a different artist through print design and our social media channels to promote their work. This season we are featuring the amazing work of Hannah Von Farren of Loaded Forty Four and Bravest Kid Tattoo in Manchester; Hannah has created a set of really bold prints that also have this really sweet, naïve feel to them that we love. It perfectly represents where we are as an emerging brand and stands out from the other tattoo prints out there.
The amazing collection currently comprises of T-shirts, Sweatshirts and Denim shirts; soon to be joined by new colour ways, checked shirts, and beanies for the winter. Here are some pieces from the collection:
Deer Print Denim Shirt £60
Skull T-Shirt £30
Grey Fox Sweatshirt £50
I love them all but if I had to pick one, I will pick the denim shirt. It is so pretty. What do you think of these pieces?

Beauty Muse – Jessica Alba
I enjoy writing the Beauty Muse series because it makes me appreciate the beautiful women we have all around us. This week, the stunning Jessica Alba is the Beauty Muse of the week. Her lovely face reminds me of a new-born baby’s bum; smooth, spotless and fresh. This woman is all versions of Beautiful.
Jessica Alba has a natural beauty, her skin is so spotless and her eyes are so beautiful. This woman Glows in the dark. I love everything about her face.
She recently shared some of her beauty tips with Cosmo, here is what she had to say:
“Looking good is feeling good. Beauty reflects your inner strength and your best self, whether you have makeup and hair done or not. I take the ten minutes (true story!) of my morning makeup routine to check in and remind myself that I’ve got this—whatever “this” is. I’d also say remembering your skin is the canvas for everything, so taking care of it is important. Staying hydrated is where it starts, from drinking water to using a humidifier, and wearing moisturiser and sunscreen is definitely part of my daily ritual. Every morning and every night I do my thing. Cleanse, moisturize, and eye cream. The whole shebang. I cleanse. I use face oil. And a cream in the day. And at night, I use a night cream.”
I agree with Jessica, beauty does reflect from within. Taking care of your skin, drinking enough water and getting enough sleep does wonders. There is little you can do from the outside but a lot to be done from the inside. Do you agree?
I think I need to step up my skin care routine. When I read about routines like Jessica Alba’s, I feel like there is something I am doing wrong.
What do you think of the Beauty Muse? Sound off in the comment section? Thanks for reading.
