Im a fashion student at Middlesex University. I am mainly into street wear and this can be adapted to high end fashion and influenced by lots of different subcultures and areas within the fashion scene. One thing you must know about me is.. I love sneakers and anything with a bit of colour!

This video is such a great example of the Old School Hip-hop scene. The use of vinyls at the beginning, the music, the colourful patterns in the background all the way through to the clothing! It strongly demonstrates the 'boyfriend' look that females adopted in the 1980's - 1990'S Hip-hop scene. Regardless of the baggy clothes they still looked feminine.
Neneh Cherry - Buffalo Stance
Another Video which she has been influenced by is 'Sky is the Limit' by Biggie Smalls & 112. Biggie Smalls was an extremely influential Hiphop Artist. This video shows the glam dress of Old School hiphop fashion; Gold chunky jewellery. Lots of it!
