Just like a circus.

A taster of my outfit from last night for a circus themed party. I was burleque, and went out with rollers in my hair after watching a tutorial on youtube on how to create 'victory rolls', and my corset. A highlight of the evening was being introduced to the hostesses parents, and having to talk to them with my arms over my nipples, so as to hide the tassles in case they caused offence! All good fun!

Happy Two Thousand and Ten

This year I fully intend to get myself a new 'proper' job. Which will mean I will hopefully have many more pennies to spend on fabulous things. So clearly I'll be needing something to hold them in. Particularly as I managed to pull the zip off my purse about a month ago and have been searching for its replacement ever since. A harder task than you might imagine, since I'm apparently very fussy about how I want to cart around my dollar. This little coin purse looks great, as its made entirely of leather, and apparently is big enough to fit in cards, but also small enough to fit in your pocket. A must, since I've never been a full on wallet girl.

You can buy me one online at Pret a Portobello (which has a lovely little sale on now too).

RIP Brittany Murphy

Clueless is still one of my favorite films ever, so watching it will probably never quite be the same again.

'Rollin with the homies'.

Apparently 2009 just had to squeeze one more celebrideath in there. So very sad.

Noughties knickers.

It started with Carine a few weeks ago, but it seems that our beloved Vogue fashion editors can't get enough of D&G's black lace creations teamed with giant black Granny pants. Pictured above is Anna Della Russo. I think the real question is, what happens if Ms Wintour tries the look? Will that be the total end to the current trend, or will her Granny pants surpass them all? No doubt her perennial shades will be enough to protect her modesty should this fashion faux-pas ever occur!
