10th, June; Alexander Mcqueen Fashion Show and The National History Museum.

10th, June; Alexander Mcqueen Fashion Show and The National History Museum.

So We actually went to London... Like a few weeks ago now, but i`ve been pretty busy just recently so i haven`t quite had time to upload anything on my three blogs. So in the next few days there might be a random surge in uploads all of a sudden... sorry!


I`m not actually that into fashion, but seeing as this is bloody Alexander Mcqueen; i felt almost honored to get into the Exhibition for £3 per person! The tickets are actually quite expensive, but we managed to get in for this much due to an Art teacher having connections with with people in London. So it was definitely worth going down there for the day.
So it took us almost five hours to get down there, again. Then it turned out was our Bus drivers first day on the Job, so when we got near the V&A (Victoria and Albert) we got kind of lost because most of the roads where closed on that day. We Where also a bit late, but we where aloud straight o through into the Exhibition which was awesome!

No pictures where aloud to be taken in the Exhibition and i even got shouted at for having my Backpack on my back... I thought it was called a Back pack for a reason, but yeah, strange. Also, there where security guards on every single door and every single corner watching your every single move as we walked around, so i couldn`t even take any sneaky pics whilst in there... damnnn.
So Some of the areas that you`ll see in the first video will be different to what i saw because it was in a different Museum/Gallery. But it was seriously amazing and i felt like crying in one of the rooms... It`s so sad to think that this amazing man committed suicide due to the depression he felt after his mum died, so much talent just gone due to such a thing; it`s such a terrible thing to even comprehend!
But it as amazing, but obviously i don`t have any pictures that i took myself, so hopefully these two videos that i came across on youtube can show you a bit more about the show. If you want to look it up yourself, then the full exhibition name is; Alexander Mcqueen, Savage beauty.

But the exhibition really was great and i would love to go to it again, or at least another exhibition like the Alexander Mcqueen one. It wasn`t all girly dresses and things that would normally see... It played creepy and disturbing music as you walked around it and the dresses where stunningly disgusting at some points.. One was made of pony skin, alligator heads, real feathers, real bird wings and dead stuff like that. then some where elegant with pearls, gold, diamonds and just looked plain awesome!




The National History Museum was just across Exhibition road aswell, so for me because i`m lazy... Nice and easy!
But i hardly got any pictures of the place because it was so busy, i mainly got blurs of people walking in front of dinosaurs or gems that where on display. so i grabbed some off of the internet to show you guys what it`s actually like in there when it`s just a littleeee bit calmer than when we went.
So we got to walk around the whole place which was better than just being cut off after an hour or so; the Earth`s natural treasures bit had to b the best... There where just gems and shiny things everywhere, so sparkley :3
I really wish it wasn`t as busy though so i could of at last attempted to take some really cool photos, but it was impossible for me to even pull out my phone because i`m small and i was being crushed by a lot of people. But yeah, the day was awesome; i wish i could tell you guys some more but it was just mainly walking around and looking at pretty, dead, huge and terrifying animals.

Hopefully we get to go down to London again soon, if we don`t then i think i`m gonna get a little bit bored down in Art doing the same old thing day in, day out again.
I`m sorry that this one was only a short update, i`m just very tired and worn out right now... ehhh.
