All Things Miley...

I've developed a new obsession that may result in me becoming shunned from my friendship circle should they ever find out.  I'm even tempted to erase my browser history just to eliminate any possibility of being discovered.  It's bizarre, and I never thought I'd ever have this issue, but I'm currently obsessed... with Googling pictures of Miley Cyrus.

Now Miley fans may rejoice that I have joined the herd. But I assure you this isn't so. I'm not about to start reciting her discography to anyone who will listen, and I sure as hell am not prepared to watch her movie LOL ever again. However, I can't help but Google images of her on tour as I'm a little bit in love with her amazing costumes. 


How could anyone possibly not be obsessed with these?!

After a little bit of research, my obsession became self-explanatory as I discovered that her outfits were designed by fashion masterminds The Blonds.  Now, anyone who has looked through some of my past fashion work would know that I did my fair bit of research on The Blonds whilst working on my Katy Perry project. I was in love with their amazing designs five years ago and Miley has just reignited the torch I hold.

Now everyone knows that Miley is famous for (among other things) sticking her tongue out. So how perfect is this diamanté lip leotard for her?






I love the perfect form and shape, as well as how glittery it is. (Who doesn't love a bit of glitter?) And how perfect was her grand entrance on a giant tongue shaped slide?  Don't get me wrong, I'm not particularly a fan of seeing her open gob everywhere I look, but this is brilliant...


Another costume I'm obsessed with is her dollar bodysuit. Which totally reminded me of the Jean Charles De-Castelbajac dollar dress that Katy Perry wore whilst I was working on my project...




And the notes even have her face on them!!!

Mileys clearly in love with showing off in leotards. But the other one that really caught my eye was her Union Jack body that she wore whilst touring over here. Whereas in the US she embraces the American flag.



Let's face it, the Union Jack has got the classic stars and stripes beaten here...


Any fashionistas or appreciaters of awesome design and eclectic fashion should definitely check out The Blonds' work. 

And any friends of mine, don't fear - I haven't suddenly become a "Smiler". I just have a new-found appreciation for her personal stylist. Now, please excuse me whilst I ride away on my Wrecking Ball...
