The large black letter "L" could represent love as a lot of Lily Allen's songs are about love and the title suggests it is about love, "It's not me, it's you". The boldness of the letter and the fact that it is black perhaps suggests that she isn't in favour of love and has maybe had some bad experiences. The pale pink dress she is wearing presents her as very girly and evokes a contrast to the title, "It's not me, it's you". These words reflect a breakup and the fact that she is blaming the other person emphasises that she has a fierce and powerful side to her. Furthermore, the song title is in italic pink writing which connects with her pink dress and makes it more eye catching and the candy coloured pink dress and writing suggests that she may have a bubbly and fun side to her and the brightly coloured pink dress could be a signifier for her personality. Furthermore, Lily Allen is presented as having her eyes closed and she looks calm as if she is meditating. Perhaps she is emphasising that she has moved on and is calmly content without her ex partner? Furthermore, the way she is seated with her arms pushing the big letter away from her could perhaps be emphasising that she is pushing love away and her eyes being closed could be emphasising that she is closing herself or even protecting herself from being hurt? Overall, the black netting she is wearing in her hair is associated with death therefore it arouses a contrast between it and her pink dress and perhaps it represents the death of love and her eyes being closed could be her reflecting on her past relationship.
