Uh Oh the Sun's out again!

28 degrees celcius does not a working day make! So as usual I decided to rebel and be fashion’s very own  Che Guevara. Dress down Friday? Try and stop me!

Here I am with my very own copy of the Law Gazette quite a riveting read I must say!

I have slightly fallen in love with this waistcoat and really must just STOP wearing it! 

 

Here I am getting my Naomi Campbell on....no? She didn't do a shoot just like this?

I'm 'smising'/the bin men were taking the bins away....

I am so elusive and mysterious even the camera can't catch me properly!

In fact it seems I have a waistcoat obsession generally as you can see here and here.

Oh well ‘waist not want not’ HA!

Moving on...

My lovely and wonderful sister (LOVE YOU!) and I went shopping last week and picked up a few choice pieces...this cool New York top being one. Although it also serves as a devastating taunt as I have actually never been to New York (although every other member of my family has) so why would they write it twice on my top? TWICE!!

Oh well Donna and I (My Donna Karen bag) console each other. She makes me look good and I fill her with goodies.

Much like an ugly footballer and a glamour model

On the subject of my sister who lives in Portsmouth....It is always good when non Londoners shop in London....I imagine it to be the same as when Victoria Beckham sees a buffet when there are no cameras around, unadulterated joy.

Much like Bruce and Sheila here!

#Justthinking#

A few days ago I was having  a conversation with one of my very wise friends. T’was quite deep, although I am not sure to what extent the fruity rosé that he brought round contributed to that depth...I am willing to bet quite a lot, particularly as I had survived on ice cream and a prayer for the whole day...but it really was bursting with the flavours of summer...mmmmm, strawberries....

Ahem...sorry about that, as I was saying we got to talking about fashion (obviously) and he put forward an extremely valid point. In these modern times in the advent of celebrity, internet and just general outrage fashion seems to have turned into just another medium with which to build notoriety, to shock just for the sake of it. 

An obvious example would be lady gaga to whom I attribute 200% of the blame however, unfortunately we have less obvious examples- Rihanna nobody is saying don’t sing just put your coochie coo away and Christina...I think your genie might have escaped, put it back in the bottle or we will have to give it an asbo! 

Estelle unfortunately does not have ANY excuses....

Unfortunately for people who love fashion as an art-form it has become less about beautiful creativity and more about things like this

 Splash holy water here

Insert therapist here

Dad issues? What dad issues?

Here we have some old school attention seeking from Liz Hurley!

This is not to be confused with hating, just genuine astonishment. Unfortunately however the nature of life is such that these acts of indecency are applauded and even celebrated!

So for all of you original lovers of clothes...you know those things that make you feel pretty and look good here is a small selection of true fashion icons/designers who prove that fashion is fleeting but style is forever...We salute you! Put that in your suspender and smoke it!!!

Maximum Impact

Maximum Dressing

There are lots of good things that are done to the maximum for example Pepsi max, Maxi Priest, Max from Eastenders... those cool Max crisps by Walkers, but then there are also very BAD things that come in maxi size..Always maxi pads, a maximum spend on your debit card and Fatman Scoop.

 It is with this same caution that I implore the women of the UK to treat the humble maxi dress. Such a beautiful creation, it was made for long hot summer days spent picking strawberries and riding bikes in meadows with loved ones. (when was the last time you actually saw a meadow though?) That is of course before shops like ATLANTIC and RISKY (For goodness sake guys the warning is in the name!) got wind of it! Now we just have eyesores offending my iris’ on a daily basis.

Where is the law that says you have to wear the purple flip flops with the purple maxi dress and purple bangles and a purple nipple piercing, which I could just about stomach if it wasn’t topped with a purple weave    worn by a woman eating a purple beetroot! 

Ok so the last bit was a lie but you get my drift?

 THERE

IS

SUCH

A.

THING

AS

.EDITING.

I just wish people would bear this in mind before this simplest of pleasures is ripped scornfully from the hands of fashion loving individuals like you and I!

SO..this is how you do it....

http://blazerwhore.blogspot.com/ cheating on her blazer

  

Me on the hunt for some car parts...

A wonderful example of effortless chic.

And THIS is why you do NOT by clothes from Atlantic Clothing...

EVER!

Aaaah, now that is out of my system I can continue telling you about the fabulous people I found out and about in the streets of London making me proud!

Here is just a selection of the finest...

Obviously has FABULOUS taste in shoes...and in life generally!

More gorgeousness

I don't know who this mystery lady is but she does look cool....and very familiar....

and here she is again just scoping out some fruit.....

I hope we have learned an important lesson here folks...

Just say no to drugs....oh and don't abuse your maxi dress privileges!

Shoe'd I or Shoe'd I not?!?

Shoe’d I or Shoe’d I not?

Guys...I have had my eye on these little puppies for a while and then pay day hit! Boom! Had to have them. Got them home and started to question my new summer boots -a concept which to this day baffles...it is less a juxtaposition of interesting ideas and more just kinda stupid!

However I must say, these boots have me just as prepared to take on the Al Queda insurgents as it does to take me to the shops on a fairly warm day and I do like to push the envelope.

SO.....

Is it a yes to floral military chic?

That is a really interesting building that I have suddenly noticed behind me...

All hay-fever sufferers look away now! 

What ever happened to lifts?

Or do you prefer things short and sweet?

Before the shoe-down...HA!

 Bzzzzzzz bzzzzzz

Expectation

September  4^th 1999...Bishop Walsh RC School....House Period!

‘So what do you want to be when you grow up?’

Over eager hand flies up.... “I want to be a LAWyer Miss!

I get to dress like this.....

Go here....

And help these....

Maybe before I am thirty I will have one of these....

And at the weekend I will definitely have time to do this....

And maybe even eat some of these....

27^th June 2010....

So you are saying that I actually have to wear this....

And even if it reaches 70 degrees celcius there is still no way I will be allowed to wear this?

But I will have to do this.....

 With God’s grace I shall succeed...!

Until then you will catch me doing things like this.....

But don't worry...I am still working on this!

In the hope that one day I will change this...

Sometimes expectation changes but DO NOT give up your dreams....take it all in your stride....and make sure you've got these on!

They go REALLY well  with a plain black suit.......almost!
