Love:Eds Fleece









Ok, so the winter has hit us! Yes we've had no summer, no sunshine, no sizzling evenings spent sitting with friends on the pavement in our local pub, no bikini bathers basking in victoria park, no kids swimming in the heath, no running around in a carefree manner in flip flops or gladiators greeting people randomly, no frisbees, no footballs, no rugby , no cricket, no nothing. After being trapped indoors for nearly eight months we have nothing to show for it. Absolutely nothing. No summer quotes, no memory books, no greeting cards or letters, no nothing. So Ed W, came in wearing a fleece waistee last night, inspiring this post. Love the featured denim waistee with a fleece lining.

Happy Birthday Michael





To the greatest star of his time. Thank you Michael, for the fashion, the moves, the music. Lala kahle Umkhonto.

Whether they're highwaisted or studded, a pair of denim shorts are a wardrobe essential.

Love: Who's BAD?









Michael Jackon and Agyness Deyn. I am still to do my Michael tribute, but only once the man is "completely" buried. So till then, we can enjoy the wonderful sights of a great muse styled onto a hopeful-new-blood-oh -so -sweet-english- eccentric-fashion muse. Agyness for President!

New Heights: I got my eyes on you







My latest shoe obsession is definitively these leather Kurt Geiger platform ankle boots. With a Bauhaus-esque quality, these shoes look like they were designed by an architect. Also available in plum, which is so very winter .

Two birds, One Stone : Daryl van Wouw




Another cloudy day in London, another day spent in front of the a screen. Feeling very sorry for myself today. Maybe because Ed has gone to Dorset and I'm all alone with the hermit who lives downstairs. Anyways shoes always cheer me up, here's Shoe maker Daryl van Wouw at The Vitual Shoe Museum.

Love the grey converse trainers.

AW09 H&M





Can someone tell me where I can find this collection. I went traipsing round the highstreet last Thursday and couldn't find it. Please note the styling of the leather bandeau dress with a Tshirt. Bandeau dresses need an edge otherwise you'll end up looking like Cheryl Cole.

Love: Leather Biker Jackets


I've been looking for the ultimate leather jacket for some years now and I think I may have found it in Whistles AW09 collection. My flatmate, ever so stylish Rebecca , introduced me to THE ULTIMATE biker jacket. It's a soft, snug, cropped biker style jacket, with a lived in quality to it. My obsession for leather bikers arises from their versatility and multiseasonal nature. Investing £250 on a jacket isn't cheap from the onset but if you divide it into how long you will own the jacket:


£250 / 24 months ( at its bear minimum)

The jacket works out at £10.40 a month. What a steal!!!

Go on and empty that piggy bank, its all about cost per wear at the end of the day.

Where are all the Shoreditch Twats.... in hackney!








Yes, we've moved. The shoreditch twat is now the hackney twat. Still gorgeous, still creative and living for the sun. We don't wait for the summer, we are the summer!
