I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

I’m 18. And, ok, I may look like a 12 years old, but I’m so NOT 12!
But in the other hand I really like pretty things and ponys, what makes me wonder if I’m not secretly a 5 years old girl.

Graphic design by Wei.

Hi there,

I came across your magazine one day whilst waiting for my yoga class at an obscure newsagency.

I’m a graphic design student here in Melbourne, and I will admit I haphazardly chanced upon your magazine when I was browsing for art/design material at the disheveled store. Luckily I was in a rummagin’ mood because I decided to look behind a fishing magazine that day and saw the beautifully designed masthead: “Pigeons and Peacocks”. I flipped through it quite aloof at the time but I was very impressed with the design of the publication.

I went around later on that week to the bigger stores here (Borders, and magazine specialty shops) and couldn’t find it, (I do wonder still where will I be able to get future issues?)

Anyway, maybe it was the purple, or the non-coated stock, maybe it was the beautiful fat didoni used in the headings but I went back and bought it!

When I finally sat down and started reading the magazine, I was astonished! I thought this was no ordinary fashion publication, apart from the complete lack of advertising and commercial intentions, it seemed so sincere. I really felt the passion you guys have, even from the opening address from the editor. It’s lovely that you guys have made such an accessible magazine too – I feel like people with little fashion interest could pick it up and read it. It would be amazing if you guys had more editorial content too.

Well that’s my 2c, and I wish you guys luck and hope you keep up the fantastic work you guys are doing!

p.s.
When I actually started reading I thought I HAVE to write to them and tell them how good of a job they are doing haha, and that I would want to be part of it or help somehow – apart from quite happily volunteering my design services, I’m not sure what I can contribute other than my feedback…

best regards,

Wei

I would absolutely love to be featured on on Pigeons&Peacocks, it’s fascinating to see other peoples work on here and would love to see my own along side theirs.

I’m tearing my hair out!!!! applying for photography BA at LCF, I’m at LCC doing foundation right now, I’m spending at least 3 days a week at LCF library trying to soak up inspiration, I’ve worked in the fashion industry as a photgraphic assistant and I’m photographing fashion week, YET still my tutor here is telling me I’ve got no chance, oh please please please God give me a sign, before I give up fashion completely, move back to my home land of cornwall and be a surfer bum!
