Geek Chic

I'm a huge fan of sunglasses, all different shapes, colours and sizes. But it's not exactly sunny in winter, is it!? Disaster! Or not, as the case maybe. Such a simple answer, I don't know why no-one thought of it before - glasses! Well, yes I do realise glasses aren't a new invention, but they haven't exactly been a fashion statement until lately. I'm not talking about reading glasses, though - it's all about the "oh the lenses fell out of my sunnies" look.

See, all the fashionistas are all ready on the ball with this trend, so pick up these beauties and you're set to go! Only problem I can see is they don't hide "I haven't slept in 48hours" eyes, we might have to revert to the "I'm a child star who wears sunglasses 24/7" look for those hungover days!

Topshop on top of the pattern craze!

Day: Wednesday. Activity: Photographing Funfairs (art) ad being stupidly ill. (V bad, can't be ill, must work, must go to party on Saturday, must, must, must!) Fags: 1. (Very good, don't like smoking when I'm ill.) Alcohol intake: None. Money spent: £30ish (Broach I couldn't resist, plus fayre entry, plus medicine, plus lunch and three coffees) Indulgence: Hoige piece of cake at lunch.

Prints are everywhere atm, with the floral look fading out, it's all about less girly patterns and more punky patterns! Here are some of my faves!

Topshops Tartan Trends:

tips from Aggy, Alice and Behati and go for the Lumberjack meets Highland fling look!

Simple Stripes:

Made a stripey statement like Georgia and Aggy!

Animal Antics:

Get out your wild-side like Kate, Aggy and Georgia. Don't forget to add some animal attitude ;]!

Agy's Bag-y!

That's right, admit it, we are all going CRAZY for the new Chanel Union Jack quilted bag. Not only is it deliously Great Brittania, but it also appears to be permnently attached to our favourite girlies arm!

Yep, Agy certainly loves her new arm candy, and who can lame her! If we had a gem like this, it wouldn't leave our sight!

The Beginning of Wisdom...

Day: Saturday. Activity: Recovering from the hangover from hell, and starting this blog! Fags: 4. (not bad at all) Alcohol intake: Lastnight, about 6 units. Today, none (but I'm due to leave for a house party in a couple of hours, so that won't be true by tomorrow morning.) Money spent: £15 (pretty good going - fags, Vogue and credit.) Indulgence: Vogue (as much as it is a nescesitiy, I also cannot afford it, so from now on it's going on my indulgence list!) Listening to: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqM6oLM63YE

AS my first post on the new blog, I could spend a few paragraphs introducing myself and what I'm all about. But I won't - for one it's not necessary, secondly it would just bore you and thirdly, I'm more excited about actually starting it than writing this nonsense.(Although, I suppose in writing all of the above, this included, I have bored you just about as much - and wasted as much time - as if I had written an introduction. So, for the record I do know I'm off to a badly thought out start!).Anyway, just to make it clear, my intentions for this blog are to tingle your taste buds, not only with the latest on the fashion scene, but also to chuck in a bit of music, literature and art for seasoning. Enjoy.
