I WANT ALL OF IT!

I could start most of my posts with 'I want...'

But this time I really mean it. Like it hurts my organs a bit every time I think about it. I break into a hot sweat and my mind races, scheming ways to covet every single piece from Balmain AW09.

Does anyone have the phone number for those Scooter Boutique Robbers that terrorise Mayfair? I want to be friends with them!

Clever Cat

After whining about the Report Signature boots for ages I have found a cheaper alternative without a silly dollar to sterling exchange.

Meh! Behold...

the 'Leona' black leather boots £80!

Best in Show

Marc by Marc Jacobs AW09.

I've already ordered this dress from Paris, yay! Can I order one of him in my size too?

New Shoes


The Wall

DIY Charms

Made a headband/necklace out of a broken bag strap.

Why? Because I have exactly £4.44 in my bank account until pay day, that's why.

Miu Miu

Fashion Week is not the time for your only designer bag to break. Merde bitches!

Off it goes to Milan for an 8 week holiday at the Miu Miu rehab. I pushed my bag over the edge and now I'm paying for it.

Model Casting

Today I casted the models for the Olanic show, or at least that was the plan. Saw about 200 girls, have about 5000 model cards and no final edit. Saw a few familiar faces which was nice.

It's gonna be a long night...


Mentally Offended

I hate MBT shoes with a passion. I glare at anyone stupid enough to wear these. So when I saw these I could only see red for about 2 hours. I give you... the MBT brogue. (imagine these but brogued)



The picture is shit but so is the guy who was sat opposite me on the bus wearing them.

LFW Video Shoot

Today we shot and filmed some footage that will be part of the Olanic AW09 show at LFW. Really excited about the show which will be an collaborative installation developed by Niki Taylor and Kim Coleman.

It was such a great team to work with, really brilliant people and a lot of fun. It's going to be a really interesting performance at fashion week.


When it Rains it Pours

The weather may be rubbish but the birthday has been non stop.






Thank you to Craig, Rebecca, Kellyann, Gemini, Liz and Maureen.

Marc by Marc Jacobs

The lovely people at Marc by Marc Jacobs sent me these on Thursday from the new SS09 collection. Thank you!

I love this jacket so much! The leather is so soft and it almost looks mauve. I need new shoes to go with it though.



This one is a doubled up jersey blazer. A bit over sized but it'll be good for summer evenings I hope.

Olanic

I met up with Niki Taylor to discuss her label Olanic's AW09 show at Vauxhall Fashion Scout this season, where I'll be helping out stylist Mhairi Gibb. I love working with on Olanic. It's always quirky and beautiful. I mentioned a while ago that I'd fallen in love with her white fringed leotard and Niki gave me the sample as a gift! Thank you I love it!! I'm buying acid wash high waisted jeans just to wear with it.



But sadly on me it looks like this...

Mariah Carey

I love this more than I should...



"Maybe when you're cursing me
You don't feel so incomplete
But we've all made mistakes
Felt the guilt and self-hate

I know you've been there
For me plenty
Maybe still got love for me
But let him without sin cast
The first stone brethren"

Yee Haw!

I think I am 90% tacky. For example I love...

white leather anything
leather and lots of it
PVC
sequins
stone wash denim
clothing from sex shops
stocking tops on show
perms
slogan tees
thigh high boots
studs
fringing
chipped nail vanish...

this list could go on for weeks. But this is only to help you understand why I have fallen in love with...

Jakcet Chaps






Riccardo Tisci

i love him...

Cheap shoes... Yes they hurt, yes you get blisters, yes they fall apart, yes you'll get bunions, yes they're not real leather but I - don't - care!

Amen



These earrings were a present from my amazing and talented friend, Vince. They did come in a pair but I've been wearing one while the other is on my wall.
