Sales + Shoppin
OK so I’m obsessed with clothes and shopping! It can either be online (ASOS + Fashion Union are the common outlets for my madness) or going, going shopping.
I mean, I could indeed list all of my favourite shops but rather than do that, I shall name a few and then point out whyyyyyyy I love the shop.... oh and what I last bought from there........
so much fun :D
1.This has to be ZARA!!!! I love this shop because it’s so European chic (Zara Woman) but playful (TFL) at the same time. For example, I bought a floaty waist skirt but I also bought a really cool pattern tee. One of my friends bought a David Bowie tee(she didn’t want the Ziggy Stardust one coz she’s a real fan) from the men’s section and it looks great! They also have an amazing selection, when the season calls for it, of trench-coats and macs! So every time I enter a Zara shop about 95% of the time I will buy something.
2. It’s DP (Dorothy Perkins) of course. Now I love this shop because they have an amazing denim section. I think this because I have odd shaped legs (quite muscley thighs with skinny ankles) so they kinda cater for the English version of an ‘Apple Bottom’ :D
The shoes are also affordable, not too wear-and-tear and never look cheap! About a couple of months ago I bought some really cute cut-out purple platforms for about £35, they are uber comfy and still look great.
Also the store tends have a sale every 3 months or so, so you can literally go nuts….Ive done it, this is acceptable.
3. Now this one is a new one for me and it’s New Look. Now it did step into the realm of cheap shit that no one wanted but New Look’s comeback is ma-hooosive. They have nice affordable (maybe sometimes cheap) clothes with even cheaper shoes. Its like an up-market version of Primark. It would be good if you were in tight squeeze for an outfit, so e.g. when trying to find something different to wear for a night out, i.e. Dresses, shorts, shirts and shoes (whatever you wear out) you can find it quickly.
4.H&M (or Hennies(spelling???) if your from Canadia) I like this shop coz it’s a mixture of boho/indie + chic/scruffy…..nuff said.
5. Primani… dah!!! I dnt think I need to explain this, other than the fact that the clothes are cheap so dnt expect longevity!.
Read it, like it, love it

Urban Tales
Sometimes, I look at men and think ‘My God, I just wanna slap you in the face!’
So I was on the train this morning and this typical chubby beer-gut of an English man sits next to me ( yes, indeed I do know this is England, I shouldn’t have been perturbed but I just freakin’ was) All I see is this man sit down and then flip straight to the sports pages of the Metro and well my blood just boiled!!! I was like that’s all you want to read/ look at pictures of!!! All I could see was a foolish looking Lampard (maybe Gerrard) on a bike looking like a t**t. This is why people are stupid!
( This reminds me of Dawn Porter's Lemon Story! – want to read it look here - http://dawnporter.wordpress.com/ )

I thought I'd help out some of you men, bag some women folk!!!
Hey Guys and Dolls, I'm gonna start posting some of the dating advice I wrote for an online dating website based 'down-under' - lemme know what you think Enjoy:D
Subject: To date or not to date (Tips for before you even get to number closing.)
So this long legged beauty walks into a bar and you wanna go up to her and go in for that first hello and land yourself a date – well stop! Before you do, size her up, she’s already done the same to you! Want to save yourself the hassle of trying to fend off the ‘bunny boiler’ or try wrestle away from the crazy clingy pony obsessed librarian, well boys listen up, all its take is a few easy steps to help you land, pun intended, the girl-next-door!
Be observant, what is your potential date wearing? Now wait, I get it, most of you are like, ‘who cares, if I play my cards right she won’t be wearing anything,’... wrong!!!! For instance in a hotel or airport lounge, notice the women with the tan trench coat, killer heels and silky looking legs – your alert buttons should be going off. Why? It’s coz this lady is what you’d call Euro Class. She’s a beauty and she knows it, she likes the classy expensive stuff, so no cute dates talking a walk down the pier!!! No way, this type of woman, the Euro Class is high maintenance and unless you’re Clooney himself, like a challenge or don’t mind getting kneed then stay far away.
Next you and your mates go out for drinks to a bar and then you come across this super cute chick, she’s by the bar, nervously playing with her hair and smiling.... stop... what is she doing? If she’s simply texting on her phone or patiently waiting at the bar while chatting to one of her girlfriends then she could actually be your typical girl-next-door. Confused? Well you shouldn’t be, the Bunny Boiler is always very composed, super sexy not geeky or cute and always always confident, never shy! She’ll be the one sat in a sexy little black dress, smouldering gaze and a glass of champagne in her hand waiting for her next prey like the Black Widow. If you do have the balls to approach her, be warned things may not be so pretty afterwards.
So its lunch time on a Saturday and your talking your dog/friend’s baby (definitely a good number closing prop!) for a walk and you clock a hottie. You’re just about ready to muster up the courage and go in for the number close when she comes in first. The convo is going great, you know the, ‘Hi how are you? Great! Is that your dog? Yep his name is...uh?’ You’ve just had to stop because your target is sobbing!?!?! She’s busy mumbling about her dog Toto that died . . . hit by a car? What? This far too emotive target is classed as an Over Emo. Now this has nothing to do with black make-up or Goths, your target is a very sensitive emotional person and needs constant reassurance, love, care and attention. It’s almost like looking after a five yr old, so unless you’re ready with a box of Kleenex instead getting your phone – steer clear of this one.

Six Degrees of Separation ( or something to that effect)
Ok so I graduated a year today and it was well.... memorable for the good and bad. Anyway this week my uni are holding this year’s graduation ceremonies and someone I work with, went to his brother’s one yesterday at my old uni! Who knows maybe I met/saw/ bumped into his brother (probably not, but it’s nice to think that you we can all be linked – lol – like those crappy celeb diagrams in magazines, that join whose dated who, with whose made a film with who) I think that that’s kinda cool.
P.S – Want to know which uni it was? Well Orlando Bloom got some random honourary degree there too!

Barber Shop
I was on my way to work this morning and I was on a bus and the bus stopped at a traffic light and I was just looking around and I notice this barber shop – this guy has just gotten up and then taken his shirt off and I was like ‘huh? but hmmmm!’ and then the barber proceeded to shave….. yes shave, this shirtless guy’s chest… is this the done thing??? I thought like women, men either did this in the sanctuary of their bathroom or at a salon? So I am now waiting for proof that this guy was not a one-off weirdo/exhibitionist (as his body was quite nice but the shaving thing just flat-out trumped that fact) …… so please lemme know!

Being someone's MUSE!!!!
Ok so a few weeks ago I was out in Soho Square with friends at the Edge bar right on the corner and we were laughing and talking and just generally having a good time. So there's us talking about our lives and being older as well as 'being an adult' (we're all in denial about it!) and I was talking about being a journalist and writing and how I felt really inspired to 'grab life by the balls'when i noticed this drunk guy. So he comes up to me and starts talking really and I mean really close to my face (all up in my George Foreman basically) and he told me how he'd heard me talking( if you know me this will come as no surprise, I'm one loud bitch!) So yeah he told me that I had inspired him in the 'heat-of-the-moment' (at this point I was well freeked!!!!) but I was gracious (you neva know who is gonna be a nutter, so always be nice!!!) Anyway short story short he wrote me this poem, I shit you not this is what he wrote (with pen and paper and everything...)
You
You are the sky,
You are the dawn,
You are the moment -
I was born.
You are the pain,
You are the sky,
You are the rain,
You are....the I.
enjoy (i think,lol)
:D
