Could I Per-Suede you?

I love Suede boots,there is something about them that are ultimately chic. After looking around at the new boots online here are 3 faves!
Uggs, $130, are a must have in winter, they are great for stomping round the house, walking the dog ( when its not muddy!) and shopping. Trust me once you have worn them you never go without, kinda ugly ish but super warm and snuggly.
Minnetonkas! So cute and fun but go with everything. $98 but there is always a 10% discount floating around from UO! Nicole Richie and Lauren conrad are huge fans!
I also love these by Steve Madden "arizonaa" boots$109!

Little J!
My how you have transformed since the first season of gossip girl. Poor little jenny Humphrey has turned into a rocker chic.
When taylor momsen came on to the tv screen, people liked little j's Innocent kind of annoying character but over the season jenny shed this look.
circa 2006- Taylor with brown hair! Well this concludes that she looks so much better blond.
Then came the rise of not so little J, stealing Blair's crow. She cut her hair, stole her friend's moms dress, made enemies with Blair, dated a gay guy! not bad for little j!?
Flash foward to this month! You can just picture it!
" Ha have you seen Taylor's new hair" -Jessica Szohr " Stop it your making me giggle"- Leighton Meester
" Sorry but i couldnt help but laugh"- Jessica Szohr
" Stop it you guys, im trying to keep a straight face "-Nicole Fiscella
" Can you hurry up and take the picture, i cant stand to listen to cackles any longer" Taylor momsen
5 secs Later.....
Taylor storms off, to the loo to look in the mirror, while reassuring herself this is a good look for her.
Ok so a little bitchy, but the new look is so BAD!
xoxo
P.S sorry about the lack of updates, to put it mildly i had severe writers block! but I'm back, bad and ready to blog!

You gotta be joking!

Either mary kate and ashley are playing with the world or they are screwed up! Simple basics for crazy prices, its even worse that lauren conrads overpriced line

Cotton Peter Shirt $490!

"Saddle-shoulder" Tee, cotton/cashmere blend, $450

Modal Tee $275 - modal = rayon!!!

Cotton Pants $700

Now maybe these prices are more fitting for gucci or chanel, not some celebrity line.

So today i decided to try out some perfume in my local Boots, damn i love that store. I tried Juicy Couture's perfume and Rock n Rose by Valentino. I didnt like the juicy couture perfume as it smelled of old lady on me which is suprising as you would think juicy couture would channel a fresh and young demopgraphic? I loved Rock n Rose by Valentino, its fun and fresh with an air of sophistication!
I still dont think its the right perfume im looking for, i want a sweet, warm smelling perfume like Britney's Fantasy, miss dior cherie or Escada sunset heat.
Any recs?

Fashion Books i adore

Fabulosity:What it is and How to get it- Kimora Lee Simmons
This book gives an insight into the fabulous world of Kimora Lee Simmons, it's not just a style guide infact most of the book is either biography of her in the modeling world, all about how to get fabulously, Finance , self confidence and how to dress like her. The book is a wonderful insight into "Chinky Giraffe"'s ( read the book and you will get the chinky giraffe comment) life and diva and outlandish fashion is a light and fun read which will give simple tips like how to walk like a supermodel, always send thank you notes and not to spend frivilousy.
Personally this is a favourite of mine, which i always refer back to when feeling sick ( Guess why this book came up, yup that's right i have a cold) and is a fun staple that every girl should have in her wardrobe,Whoops! i mean bookcase.
That extra half an inch, Hair Heels and Everything In Between- Victoria Beckham This book is another personal favourite of mine, with tips on where to buy the best tank top, on dressing for special occasions, everyday wear, accessorizing, make up and making the most of your wardrobe. Its not a book to be taken too seriously and even the fashion goddess admits she still loves uggs and applies fake tan when David's away.The Book is friendly and witty, which makes the book easy to read and hard to put down, with fabulous illustration, fun pictures and if a little shallow but i think its a fun book to have. Next on my list to buy: Fashion Babylon The Goddess Guide A to Zoe!

first mani/pedi

After many years of painting my nails myself, I decided to get my first manicure/ Pedicure? Usually I do it myself on a Sunday night, with a little bit of pampering, removing and swishing on nail polish then applying Clingfilm to my feet after slathering Body lotion. I loved the whole pampering thing, the lady doing my manicure and pedicure at the same time was fabulous, it’s not as simple as painting your nails and shaping. It’s the little things that make the cost worth it, the foot spa which massages your feet while the lady is massaging your toes with your best girl friend next to you gabbling away.

After the shaping, filing and cutting of the cuticles, it was finally time for the painting of the nails. I chose a bright orange polish for my feet ( OPI Brights Power) and a lovely soft but rosy pink for my nails ( OPI dozen rosas). I instantly fell in love with the orange pop of colour. Overall the manicure lasted 3 days before chipping which is not a great amount of time but nail varnish doesn’t tend to stay on my nails for a long period. I think I will get manicures in the future, occasionally say around Christmas and Birthdays and maybe parties but it’s definitely a treat.

I adore OPI anyway so I would recommend it to everyone who does home mani/ pedis!! I will do a tutorial in the future about my clingfilm feet!

Teen choice awards.....

If i was going to the teen choice awards, i would wear this on the red carpet!
