STYLING: BELLA

I'm totally obsessed with masculine dressing. I don't mean, slightly androgynous, simple and clean, head to toe Acne, like you see so much these days (thanks Sweden). Hey, I totes love that look despite the fact it is becoming more common than  the completely saturated East London creepers & a beenie grunge look (thanks Ri Ri). I mean ACTUALLY DRESSING LIKE A MAN. Like, Annie Hall, like Kristin Scott Thomas in Gosford Park... google them, bitches! (I can't be arsed to post a pic. Tut tut! Lazy blogger.)

So I've been collecting these super, dapper, slim, silk ties on my buying travels. I have four, and I'm still working up the courage to wear one. I'm worried I'll look like a Pizza Express waitress. NOT. A. GOOD. LOOK.

I DIGRESS! I thought it was about time we did a photoshoot for my store, The Vintage Store, that went for a classic vintage vibe without being too twee and DA-DA! Here's a preview...

P.S. How bloody beautiful is Bella?! Totes well jel of that pout.

FUCK OFF MASSIVE RAVE: THE VINTAGE STORE PARTY

I'VE BEEN BUSY ALRIGHT! Planning and preparing and pulling my hair out over this...
(dun dun dun deeeeeer!)

come.

or else.

THE VINTAGE STORE PARTY! WOOOOO!

STREETSTYLE: 90s FRESH

When you see a trend reach some suburban nightmare highstreet store you know it's officially over (hello creepers! Oh if only you weren't bastardised by Rihanna!) But you know what? The whole 90s grunge look may look fucking awful when sported by some irritating, jumped up 17yr old who bought it straight off a Topshop mannequin (meow), but when it's done right it is SO FUN! Also I am just well jel and well bitter that I'm too old to pull it off anymore (I'm fodder for the over 25s category in X-Factor, like, jeesh, when did this happen?) So when I see kids (meant in non-patronising way, but maternal whimsical way) like Danny and Bryony respectively rocking the 1993 acid house and Babes in Toyland Barbie look I bloody love it. 

PS. I'm fully aware I just used the word rocking. Just like when your mum tries to be cool. Cringe.
