PS. Obviously I don't mean all Bristol students, so no offence...

SLUMP
Weirdly enough, considering fashion week's just happened, I am feeling shockingly uninspired. I don't really know what's wrong with me, but I know I don't like it. A large part of it I think is down to location, like when I'm in London/Paris/NYC, I nearly always put in more of an effort. Unfortunately for moi, fashion-speaking anyway, I am in Bristol, which I personally do not find the most fashionably inspirational place in the world. This is largely because I would say 75% of all Bristol students would just love to be alternative, but this desire to be alternative has resulted in them all being alternative in the same way. Kind of defeats the point non? Not that I don't love the look of high tops, weird vintage jumpers, skinny jeans, barbours and weird cloths tied into people's hair......ok I actually hate it, so sue me. The monotony of seeing all these people who a few years ago were dressed in ra-ra skirts, Ralph Lauren polo shirts and pashminas, is making me fashionably-depressed. So here are some fashion-spirit lifters. I feel sooo much better now.

IN THE COUNTRY
As much as I love cities, I'm a country girl at heart and I miss stomping through fields and woods in the rain with my dogs, fresh air and coming home to my mamma's roast lunch...mmm

POLKA FACE
Considering I'm semi-vegetarian, love puppies and am generally not a fan of real fur, this statement may come as a shock to some of you: I f***king love Cruella de Vil. What spurred this declaration? This fabulous shoot from Lula Magazine that's what. Ok, I know there is little or no puppy dalmation fur involved, but there are spots and they are black and white so whatevs. Leaving out the animal cruelty issues, Cruella was so on to a good thing: I swear polka-dots are adorable. And before you think 'NO WAY - they're adorable in a 5 year old way', look at the pictures below, my friends. They look chic and understated in a 50s pin-up kind of way. So whether you want to look like Betty Boop, or the magnificent puppy-slayer, give polka-dots a whirl. And leave the puppies alone...
And sorry I've been AWOL for the past week, I've been 'busy'...ish...
