Winter White



Living in London, it is often hard to find the inspiration to dress in an interesting manner throughout the winder. The constant grey days and getting up and coming home in the dark, combined with my work wardrobe being soley made up of black separates make for fairly dull times. I've always felt that winter whites were best confined to the apres ski pages in vogue, or the Gap shop windows, but the look above is wearable and cute. I completely adore the mink tights with the grey boots too, and makes me think I need to pop back into New Look to pick up these cuties. Although i should probably start wearing my authotics to work at all times, to avoid the hideous numbness I'm currently crippled with. Flat feet, what a treat!

It was Miss Scarlet in the bedroom...


If ever there was a photo to show the haters what for, then this has to be it. I gawked at it no less than five minutes after prodding at my own rapidly ginger-ing mane, worrying when I would find the time to dye it back to dark brown again. Scarlet looks beyond sumptous here; I love the eye makeup and the matte but still there lips. Definitely one to try and copy once I've popped into Boots and picked up my two boxes of dye for a fiver. Bless these credit crunch times. A statement which immediately takes all the glamour out of everything. Oh well, for this mere mortal it will just have to do.

Phwoar ScarJo. Phwoar.

Daphne Guiness is fierce. This is just the latest addition to a long list of proof of that fierceness. A well deserved thanks to Tommy for capturing her prowling around town in these specially customised House of Harlot platforms.

Daria looking simply stunning. If this isn't inspiration to get myself down the gym I don't know what is. I feel a diy coming on with that vest as well...

Two timing touch and broken bones.

Faux mohawk perfection. Reminiscent of Gwen Stefani back in the day. Loving the braids. Loving the backcombing. Loving it all.

So after work on Friday, I slinked over to Jo Cliche's where I applied a generous amount of Russian Red to my lips, while trying not to let her tigercats too close to my newly shredded tee, inspiration courtesty of Childhood Flames. She has a great tutorial on how to make your own up on her blog.

We braved the cold to go and watch Peaches dj at Circus, held at Last Days of Decadence, Shoreditch. It was a great night, just the right number of fashion fags, drag queens and the cutest indie boys. Dancing with Peaches while holding her hand over the dj booth was probably the biggest highlight for me!

Even though its edging ever closer to the end of the weekend now, I find myself strangely looking forward to next week. I have an interview at an agency tomorrow which specialises in creative jobs, and have sent off cv's for two potential gallery assistant roles. Fingers crossed!
