Wino

The A/W Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry collection was confirmed on Monday. I'm still obsessed with my twin tipped vest from her last collection, but this season the lady came up cute, its hounds-tooth crazy but the fit and attention to retro is what attracts me. Fred Perry's idea to collaborate with the singer, although short lived, was completely worth it. Something tells me this time the 'Amy Winehouse' labelled pieces won't make the sale rail.

Bear dank

It's a Kidder-minster saying; " 'dank' pretty much means good so like 'bear dank' means really good I guess", is what my flatmate Harrison said to me (his best friend Dan Jordan is the brains behind this brand). From the place between Birmingham and Liverpool, I think it might be Worcestershire? These Logo and graphic images are brought to life in T-shirts, hoodies and the like.  I purchased this 'YES LAD!' one from Black Alter Apparel a month or so ago.
Frankie Sandford from The Saturday's
Sure.


Like my obsession with T-shirts, I am ab it obsessed with this effect on my friends iphone camera. Need refrain from doing two posts next to each other with the same image effect in future!

Dr Martens et al

So recently I went a bit online mad. Here is the mish mash I came up with. no rules. no sense.













The Winehouse for Fred Perry vest is foundation stained, the HH Star tights already have a couple of holes in and the white sandals acquired some scuffs today. 
Happy days xx

My Royal Opinion...3 months too late


So you saw the dress, heard the vows, witnessed the first kiss, and you say you weren’t actually at the wedding exactly… Who needs an invite when you can see it better on an HD TV? Whichever way you chose to broadcast the big day, there was no denying the feel good factor it held in everyone’s mood. Even the paparazzi lay off; loyalty has appeared and the nosy buggers paid more respect. Mid Wales went British crazy and everything went well on the day? Right up to the sickly sweet weather; I don’t know about the element of surprise but the positively perfect event quite plainly knocked me off my feet!
What happened to the days of a disaffected youth? Our younger generation quite literally sat up and took note. This unnerving turn of events has put the world on its head; economic hardship, what does that mean? Diamond Jubilee, that isn’t for another few years yet, is it? Olympics, you can wait. Quibble at No. 10 why does that matter again?
Now that it’s over? With the hype has gone optimism, and your last bit of holiday this year. Christmas came early and now it is gone, so lets get back to work and oh well, there is always 60 year old Aunt Flora’s third wedding to look forward to?
Finally, peace is restored and the cynics can go back to being cynical again.
