great, and anyone that disagrees just doesn’t understand fashion. True style has no rules! Who is your style icon? David Bowie. But then again, he is my icon for everything. I just adore his style, and how he was never afraid to just change and do something completely different. I also admire Vivienne Westwood as she never fails to wear and make the most amazing garments...and of course Iris Apfel, and all of the amazing women on Advanced Style. What has been your all time best Judy’s fair buy? That’s a hard one! I think the last one was definitely a pair of wooden frames with cute watercolour drawings inside. They look great on my wall. Where are your favourite hang out spots in London? Brick Lane is THE place for vintage, and there is always a kooky and cool market on in 18 Spitalfield’s. I also adore Covent Garden, Berwick Street and Carnaby Street, and Camden Market too! What are your plans for the summer? Work on my blog! I finally have time to put my all into it, and will hopefully be able to visit some lovely places (and some Judy’s fairs!) and take some good photographs. I also am intending to take a trip to France with the family, and am leaving all technology behind (except something that plays music) as I just really need a break! What fashion item would you never be seen dead in? Oooh. I break a lot of rules, especially those I set myself. I guess right now it would have to be a pair of Crocs. I have nothing against them - they are really comfy and great for kids but I feel the relationship must end once you hit your teens. I’m sorry Crocs. You’ve just won Company magazines Best Teen Style Blogger award, does this feel surreal? It is! I can’t really believe people read my blog! I adore all of the other girls blogs...they are all really talented and I should not have been in the same category, let alone winning. I am sure I’m not as good as they are. Does it feel odd to think that so many people are fans of your style? It must put some pressure on you to dress quirkily all the time... It’s a bit strange, as I feel I can’t repeat outfits as much (such a guilty pleasure of mine). It’s also hard sometimes as I don’t want to drastically change but I want to let my style develop - I’m sure I’ll manage somehow! Visit Ellie’s blog at www. roseandvintage.blogspot. co.uk
