Real Fashion

Is anyone else a little bored of fashion week(s) by now? For weeks, its been photo after photo after photo of silent mannequins and i feel that a real fashion show, with real people and real expressions would make me more interested. I may love Marc Jabobs, but aspirational fashion gets dull after a while. Whereas looking at Primark's winter collection is fun and easy! I can almost see the hoards fighting for the black coat!

Award Show do's and don'ts

They have millions of dollars and top stylists at their disposal and yet stars still turn up
in outfits like this:

Paula, Paula, Paula. Chest looks funny, it looks like you had a Judy Finnigan moment and didn't realise.

I don't even know who Phoebe is, but i hate this outfit. It looks cheap, her skin looks greasy, the sheer panels....ergh.

I may not really hate this, but i don't love it. It makes her look huge and it looks like
she would give passers by a huge dose of static.

Jaime is gorgeous, so why oh why did she chose a boring black dress which does little for her?

Hayden is even more gorgeous, and i love the colour and neckline but the huge expanse of creased fabric just ruins it all.

Now - Yay!- Outfits i loved!:

Love it, the colour, shape, the black outline. Bravo Gracie!

I will forgive her the belt, for the gorgeous colour and fit

The dress is so pretty, with the colour and the bow matching her hair, eyes and lipstick.

Although she looks a little thin to me, Sarah's look is really pretty, all lilac flounces and curls.

Aspirational Shopping - Good?

Although i live in Primark and Peacocks, a girl can dream and Net-A-Porter offers beautiful designer clothes. Personally, i think browsing the site allows me to see the gorgeous designs without actually spending £400 on a Chloe white long-sleeved jumper.

Besides, i may love Marc Jacobs but does this look dirty to anyone else?
http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/21624. Its like Alice in Wonderland
got dirty when she was down the rabbit hole and someone has slapped a £280 price
tag on it.


http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/23370 this i love
and this is darling http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/24232 but god its pricey!

I think i'll just face reality, and covet this instead

What I bought this week!

Well, technically on Friday but that lacks flair. In Primark i found my dream coat, in Teal with big buttons and a snuggly feel to it - if i could marry a coat it would be this one (£15!) i also brought a pair of metallic sheen tights (£2.50) and buy rummaging through the piles of sale smock-tops i found this cute mustard cardie for only £2. I took some photos, to show of my new favourite things:
