Winner!!

You may have read some previous posts regarding mine and my flatmates competition obsession, well its happened again. This morning I arrived at work to discover I had won a £50 bar tab at the Green Man pub round the corner!! Dropping your business cards into those goldfish bowls at the bar does actually work!!!! Roll on 5.30pm, I'm going to treat the whole office to free drinks!

Pokémon...do you remember??

Remember Pokémon from the 90's, I would have thought so everyone was obsessed...I even had a Pikachu bag for college (how cool was I!). Well the Nintendo franchise are coming back strong with the new Pokémon HeartGold and Pokémon SoulSilver versions for the Nintendo DS and DSi. To launch the new games Nintendo have asked some artists to create Pokémon themed artwork for an exclusive launch party which will have the likes of The Filthy Dukes, Friendly Fires and Real Gold performing. See told you the Pokémon guys were cool!!!

Go and have a look at the artwork on the Vice website here. Below are a few of my favorites.

We ♥ Tea

I love anything to do with tea, such as amazing tea cups or tea pots. I spotted this lady outside the Electrowerkz in Islington with a beautiful I ♥ Tea necklace with a little tea cut hanging from it! Unfortunately I can't remember this girls name or where she got her necklace from.

Pimped up converse trainers

So my first attempt at studding my Converse trainers was a little crap, this time with the correct tools I think they are pretty disco!!♥

Free People makes no sense

Go and look at www.freepeople.com and in particular the sneakers section. Am I an idiot or are they blatantly selling old, dirty trainers for £38 saying they are distressed!!!! WTF!!! They are just dirty!!




What is the world coming to?? Just get some new trainers for half the price and wear them...!

Primarnoni's amazing sandals

I have never been able to buy Primark shoes as they are crappy quality and hurt my feet, but this season they seem to have made a breakthrough and their sandals are bloody excellent! So me and my flatmate eagerly trotted down and got a couple of pairs. I love both of them as they are really comfy and were only £13 each! Bargain!

By the way the fake painting over my toe nails is to shield you from the disgusting shock that is my none existent big toes due to a bed dropping incident! And the rest of them needed the treatment or, well, they just wouldn't match!

LFW...finally!

I am the slowest person in the world, but here are a few pics from my experience at the Belle Sauvage show.
Sat on the row I felt very uncomfortable, probably because we looked opposite and everyone seemed a little too cool for school in their designer gear. But then we decided that was stupid and started to enjoy the experience. The shoes were the first thing I noticed, they were a little trying to be crazy but just looked a little ridiculous - but they are obviously just made for the show so I'll move on.
The immaculate shoulders, the winged dresses, the leggings...I can barely move my trigger finger quickly enough to get the shots!
Then as quick as it had begun it was over, phew exhausting!

-- Sorry there are loads of pics but I was excited!--

THANK YOU!!

Just wanted to say a little thank you to my new followers this week! I really appreciate it xxxxxxxx

And the winner is...

My flatmate Jade and myself are in some sort of competition winning war, which is never a bad thing but I believe that she may have outdone me with this one. She managed not only to bag us tickets to front row LFW but also she won £250 worth of mywardrobe.com vouchers! Jammy sod!
So her rewards came to her in a ribboned box and in the form of a Barbour jacket, very Farmer Giles! A beautiful pair of Ray-Ban Clubmasters and the cherry on top (mainly because I am the same shoe size as her, YES!) are the Vivienne Westwood Black Lady Dragon Wax Seal Slingbacks. And yes we did let out a little girly scream when we saw these!!! Not only are they gorgeous but they also smell of Trolls (not the warty creepy ones which live under bridges but the children's toys). If you get a chance pop into Vivienne Westwood and have a cheeky sniff.

I can hardly contain myself, how cute is all this jewellery! Thats all I need to say about it...except for I can't access paypal so can you all buy me lots and lots!!

I sometimes wish I had more talent

I really admire people who have a great imagination, and I admire more people who can actually transfer it from their mind into real life. Music videos can be so dull with just scantly clad girls dancing so I rejoiced when I saw this video of OK Go This Too Shall Pass directed by James Frost. Remember they previously did that video of them all doing a dance on running machines...which got destroyed by some crappy vitamin advert on TV!
This is sheer genius, yes I know this sort of video has been done before (in a car advert but I can't remember the make) but its still fab. Check it out below...
Another a.m.a.z.i.n.g music video is Chemical Brothers Star Guitar which is just a video of a train...boring you say! NO! The train ride matches the rhythm of the song, you really need to see it to appreciate the genius. Click here to see it!
