Flash a Hungry Smile

New title of Mystery Jets new song. I am loving it, in time for summer tunes. Reminds me of frolicking in the fields of the my home town Buckinghamshire. How I miss the countryside and your imagination going wild. With ideas of making a little forest den covered in fairy lights with butterflies whizzing around.



Love the imagery below, I want dress lights in my den!

Oh Master Bates!

Sorry for the slight pun here but any British kids in their twenties will remember the children programme Captain Pugwash with Master Bates and Seaman Staines. All very delightful British puns aimed at 6 year olds. Nice!

Shamefully my weekend was not filled with these puns, one may say a rather dull weekend then. However, me and some friends decided to rent a pedal boat in Hyde Park (girls and boys half an hour is suffice, as one hour you really will be doing laps around the lake). My friends brought cake and coffee, I gauged myself in sushi. Wanker snob much? I think so, all I needed is to drink straight from a bottle of champers darlin' and we will be all set for some wanker posh toff marlkey.


Ship Ahoy! (My friend's breasts are about the size of my head...)



Badly attempting Lady GaGa Bad Romance dance here...



Outfit: Sunglasses - H&M, Breton Striped Top - Uniqlo, Shorts - Cut off an old pair of Topshop Jeans, Blazer - Charity Shop, Fur Collar - Paris Vintage Shop, Tights - H&M, Brown Bag - Car Boot Sale and Floral Head Band - Spitafield's Market.

Have a beautiful week lovelies!

An Single Lady and Her Tom Ford Foolery

Following my vieiwng of An Single Man, which I highly recommend to watch if not to see Colin Firth beautiful acting, but the gorgeous cinematography and the fact Nicholas Hoult looks absolutely lovely in the film even if he is slightly tango-ed.

Here is my attempt to gain geek chic. I am also apparently advocating Koppaberg as well as some Tom Ford Geek Sheek Glasses. All I need is beautiful boy brushing my hair to have vice versa photo to Nicholas Hoult advert.



p.s. Velvet Leotards are totally hot hot hot!!!


p.p.s. Big thank you to my friend who has taken a lot of my intoxicated antics this week. I am on massive detox now and not in good time with St Patrick's day. :(

Classic Smokin'





Last year I wrote about some photography containing their muses smoking on the sticks of cancer. I do not promote the act of smoking, its your own personal choice. I have experimental with my shit camera and basic skills to form some smokin' pictures myself...



Yer massive fail kids.

Just look at my cheesy grin.

Oh I wish I was a Punk Rocker with Flowers in my Hair

The crappy pop song by Sandi Thom - I wish I was Punk Rocker reminded me of JW Anderson A/W 10 collection showcased today at LFW. Though unlike Sandi Thom song which has no resemblance to any real Punk Rocker inner self and more of annoying stage school girl pretending she is being unique, JW Anderson has a nice soft touch of Punk. His collections resonates with my own personal taste of things to be a bit more edger and dark colours but the love of vintage and floral patterns.

There was a lot of tartan picnic trousers, military/softer version of Doc Martens Lace up boots, some gorgeous Scottish cream knitwear, neck buckles, and some tailored peg leg turn up trousers. Some highlights for me are the flowers intertwined with his lace up boots. Gives me ideas to dress up my own lace up boots collection. If I was a Boy I will probably be kitted out in his clothes. Future men please take note in a class of good taste to dazzle my good self. Very much like the Vampire squid/fish mentioned on QI last week. BEDAZZLE! (I shamefully love Oxbridge comedians too much)


Floral Punk Shoes. Fuck you Sandi Thom, I want flowers in my Doc Martens.









p.s. Last boy model in this collection of pictures is my lovely good friend of mine, my original first skanky friend in London. Well done for managing to get on the catwalk love and please do not get all Kate Moss on us!!!

Vision 20/20... I wish!

I have always loved geeky glasses, but there is something about these geek chick eye wear which is getting me rather hot under the collar. Maybe it is the geeky but retro feel about these glasses. They speak to me of knowledge, understanding, slyness, mystery, book smarts and self confidence. Pretty much everything I adore in the opposite sex. Plus it does help al my favourite men wears them.





Invest in Tom Ford boys and you get woman to do this to you... Now that is what I call advertising.



If not, I probably buy some for myself though I believe my co workers will think I am massive weirdo as I am not conforming to office sexy look or the WAG look. The appreciation of my clothes in my office is -36 points.

Oh on the note of Colin Firth role in Single Man, Nicholas Hoult is looking an absolute babe in it. Brunettes and Blue eyes are just a killer in my books.

McQueen and not Forgotten

Alexander Mcqueen.

You were a treasure in the fashion industry and how the world will wonder what was the A/W 10 collection to be shown in Paris and only days before London Fashion Week. We may never know. I hope you are now in peace with your mother. British Fashion, correction the Global Fashion Industry, has lost one of their bright designers showcasing the true wonders of graduate young talent to look outside the box.

You created the 'bumster' jeans where the jeans were so low cut he had evidently named his 1996 collection the "Highland Rape". You were risky and theatrical in your design. Heck, you got Lady GaGa wearing your Armadillo Shoes! Still baffled how on earth you can walk in them, let alone run for my 55 Bus to Oxford Circus.

My personal favourite was his Spring Summer Collection in 2007, the eerie Tudor music and the classic but feminine clothes juts hits the mood perfectly.





RIP Alexander McQueen.
