Subtle Ruffles.

A pretty vest and a high-waisted skirt . . . Eughh! How boring! WE NEED SOME DETAIL HERE!! Okay, not sure I want to go out looking like Lady Gaga, but a few ruffles will do!! I know what you're thinking- 'Isn't it always better to be extravagant and different?' The answer is: Yes, it is good to be different but sometimes, people can get bored of that. Subtle is good. Ever heard the expression: Less is More? As you can see, (above) some of these pieces of clothing don't have as subtle ruffles as I'm making it sound like they should have, but what I want you to do is imagine these clothes without ruffles on them. You don't even have to say what your thinking. PLAIN, SIMPLE, BORING. Now, I want you to take these ruffles, and enlarge them ten times. This is what you could call NON-subtle. Ruffles: Summery, Pretty, Feminine and Lovely.

Matt = Heath?

As you already know, Matt Smith and Heath Ledger are both on my 'WANTED' List. (To be honest, what's not to want?) I was watching Doctor Who earlier this evening, as you do, and I was thinking 'Gosh, he's so hot!' and then i thought . . . 'Hmm, he looks like someone hot!' Then, it came to me. HEATH!! THEY LOOK SO ALIKE!!! And yes, this post has nothing to do with this entire blog, but it has to be said.

The Mulberry Alexa Clutch

On my previous post, I mentioned the Mulberry Alexa, after writing about this, I decided I would take a gander at the Mulberry Online Store. Little did I know that this would be a huge mistake. Mulberry have just released a new clutch, the Alexa Clutch. Did I just spend two minutes gazing into her shiny gold padlocks? Yes. I think I am head over heels in love with her!! I will try and erase her from my mind, however impossible it may be. I blame Mulberry for making peoples lives a misery. Although, as soon as I purchase my first (and trust me it will NOT be my last) Mulberry purse, clutch, or satchel, I will no longer think of Mulberry as a life ruiner, but until then . . . Sniff, sniff.

Secret Pointless Obsessions.

Every single one of us has a Secret Pointless Obsession, and what makes it pointless is that we know that we can never have it or we can't afford it, like my sister for example: The Mulberry Alexa. Yes, she can afford it, but she'd have to use up her entire student loan to buy it and just live off Cheese and Crackers, but to be honest, hers isn't really a Secret Pointless Obsession, its just an obsession. It's not Secret or Pointless in any way whatsoever. It's perfectly reasonable and the world know that she wants the Alexa, but to be fair, she is only human, and it is pretty much Heaven squeezed into 23x33x17cm. A Sectret Pointless Obsession is something you think about more than three times a day but you don't really tell anyone about it because it's just so pointless, like me and Sienna Miller's tattoo. Sometimes you just want to cry because you can't have it but hey, life goes on . . . for some! WANTED: Sienna Millers tattoo. WANTED: A £35 bag from Topshop that I just recently realised I have fallen in love with. WANTED: Valentino Smoke Effect shoes. WANTED: Beyonce's body. WANTED: A Ukulele. WANTED: Heath Ledger. WANTED: The new Doctor. WANTED: A Chanel bike.

Clogs . . .

Don't lie, you love them, you always have done, but you've also always thought: "How can I wear them without looking like I just spent half an hour in a workshop sticking a wooden block to my foot?" Well, if you have the courage to dislike one single thing in Alexa Chungs wardrobe, then go ahead, hate them! I wish I could, but if Alexa can wear them on the front cover of VOGUE, then I can certainly add a pair of them to my 'Wanted List'.(Hers are Chanel . . . but I can still dream?)
