Style crush crush crush: On the fringe

 The last time I wore a garment with fringing attached, I was 10, dressed as a Squaw and was waiting in the wings of a fancy dress competition. My costume, lovingly made by my mother, was complete with feathers, braids and a cuddly bunny wrapped in a tea-towel. I strode up on to the stage, proud to be in the final group. I had the best costume, but they'd seen it a thousand times before. The kid dressed as a box of cigarettes won. Apparently it was...unique. I never got over it. I scorned fringing through out my teen years, so imagine my shock when I was looking at British Vogue earlier today, to see bags and shoes covered in the stuff and worse still...I liked it.


Marc Jacobs

The whole country and western trend has come and gone for years and all of those times I hated it, so why is it different this time?

The thing is that it's simple and unfussy. I don't need to wear hefty suede jacket with tassles swinging to and fro; neither do I need to don a cowboy hat. I can go about wearing my normal clothes and sling on a pair of fringed heels and wam: super fashionista at your service! Now we all know that I'm not one for heels in the day, mainly because i'm giantly tall...

but a pair of sandals and a fringed bag, I can cope with.

Get out your bleached denim, girls! Okay...so maaaaybe we can't all get away with top to toe denim IRL, but it's a cute idea right? What i'm really loving are Hayley's accessories. Nerd glasses? Errrr, yes please! (Although I am yet to wear mine out in public. I will... Eventually... I think.)

nerdpocket with self knitted hat!

I am so in <3 with my mister right now. My laptop charger pack pegged it the other day and he's bought me a new one and he surprised me with tickets to the XFactor auditions next week! (If you're on twitter you'll already know that little nugget) Ages ago I said I wanted to apply for XFactor, but then didn't. Obviously I am meant to be in the same room as Mr Cowell once in my life even if I'm not the one singing :P

Toodle pip, babypockets.

Now, I admit I don't know much about this girl, she's in Gossip Girl, right? But I keep seeing pics of her and everytime I do a little part of me wishes that I had her wardrobe, then I remember that I don't and a little part of my fashion heart dies! It would be quite easy to put this look together though; all black... red lips?!...hell, if they didn't know me better my friends probably wouldn't recognise me!

Can you imagine dying your hair super bleach blonde? I'm tempted. Too much of a wuss to actually do it though :D

Do you watch Gossip Girl? I kind of want to get into it. Worth it or no???
