Tis wedding season

June 30, 2008 · 1 Comment

Are you like me with a fair few weddings to go to this summer? It’s a total nightmare, I am loving all the beautiful summery evening gowns in Coast, Monsoon etc but my wee purse can’t really afford any of it… therefore this year I am gonna have to go high street.

I have to say, although I started off a bit disheartened I am very excited about a few dresses available on the High Street, all worthy of a fancy wedding or two.

My first style choice has to be the one shouldered ruffled dress seen in River Island and Miss Selfridge- very cute but can be wore formal with a pair of metallic strappy sandals.

Navy Dress from Miss Selfrdige, Yellow Polka Dot Dress from River Island

My other favourite wedding worthy dress has to be this little number from River Island, a strong combination of cutesy and sexy…

Keira Knightley does ruffles

June 24, 2008 · 1 Comment

Keira KnightleyI really love this Erdem dress; I like the colour and I like the flouncy ball gown side it has, courtesy of the ruffles and pleating, what I don’t like however, is that although Keira looks ravishing in it, I very much doubt anyone else would…

American Apparel release jewellery range

June 24, 2008 · Leave a Comment

As much as I want to buy into the American Apparel look that has been going on for a while I have really been struggling… for starters should lycra cycling shorts, leotards or all-in-ones, be worn by anyone over a size 10??

I heart denim flares

June 18, 2008 · Leave a Comment

I love skinny jeans, so much so that I have even went to the extreme of buying a bleached denim pair, but recently I have started to become irritated by them. For starters you cannot (well I can’t anyway) sit down without your top riding up and arse hanging out, not being a complete rake I also become increasingly conscious of my little muffin top that likes to occasionally pop out and say hello prompting me to only wear long tops that fall to my hips eliminating any chance of flab spillages.

I have put up with all these issues for two/three years now since the skinny jean became my staple denim diet; however I have had enough, I am making a stand, I have went out and bought myself the most non skinny jeans possible! The denim flares! I am not completely ridding myself of the skinny jean, I still love them like a fat kid love Krispy Kremes, but I am venturing out, I am trying new things and breaking my mould.

June 18, 2008 · Leave a Comment

So the rumour is that Daisy Lowe is set to become the star of the British version of The Hills… I’m not sure what my thoughts are on this… hmmm… watching a half hour long episode of Daisy Lowe and Peaches Geldolf prance around thinking they are too cool for school and name dropping their ‘rock star’ boyfriends… I think not!
