Made In Chelsea Go Crazy For Zara
May 16, 2012For a moment, I’m going to shelve any music musings going on in my head, and finally promulgate my obsession with Made In Chelsea (E4′s poshest and most popular programme), or #MIC if you’re high-fiving with the blue birds. Besides juicy plotlines and tongue-in-cheek chatter, Made In Chelsea showcases the most killer fashion on television right now. I’m telling you, these girls know how to dress. Or their stylists are very good at their jobs. … Continue reading

VIDEO: I went shopping…
May 14, 2012I’d quite like to make videos a regular feature for my blog, but time just slips through my hands these days. I’d also quite like to do some more shopping, but alas, money seems to be a bit of an obstacle to get my grubby mits on shiny, pretty things. This roster of things should keep me going for a good while though, I hope… (most links are clickable, feel free to hover!) ‘Little Love … Continue reading

This Week’s Music Video Crushes
May 2, 2012I just love when a whole surge of music videos are released in a close time-span. If you read my blog post on my adoration for the music vid medium, and my favourites during December, you’ll understand I have a serious fascination with music video production and the creativity behind coming up with a story for the song. This week, one music video after another seemed to be surfacing on my online hemisphere, so I … Continue reading

Radio 1 Live Lounge: Lana Del Rey Kills It Again
April 20, 2012Things had become a little too quiet for my liking on the Lana landscape, and for some time I had been anticipating her next appearance that wasn’t at all sartorially-inclined, wondering which move she would make next. Finally, Radio 1 delivered a Friday morning treat in the shape of a live lounge session with my Americana idol. Earlier this year, Lana Del Rey recorded a cover of Kasabian’s Goodbye Kiss in Radio 1′s Maida Vale studios, … Continue reading

The Voice
April 16, 2012Undoubtedly, avant-garde anything is where I’m most comfortable. I have some strong opinions on mainstream, but in this instance, I can’t help myself. This may be a strange post to write about on my blog, and it’s certainly unfamiliar territory for me to sing my praises for a television programme as I am a bit of a TV transient, floating fickly in and out of dramas, one-offs and whole seasons as I please. New BBC … Continue reading

The April Playlist
April 11, 2012I come bearing an armful of new tunes for you all to blare for the month of April! This month, something strange has started happening to my ears. All of a sudden, they seem to be enjoying very mellow dubstep. And when I say mellow, I mean barely-there, taunting, teasing and tantalising. I am not your typical Creamfields, let’s-get-off-our-faces, dance-like-a-mofo kind of girl, as my readers are well aware of. So I’m starting off slow, … Continue reading

Dreamlands by ChloBo
April 6, 2012Faithful fans of Romeo will be well aware of my love for ChloBo jewellery, but I realised that it had been a while since I last professed my love for a brand born in my adopted hometown of Chester, and with a new collection out last Monday, I decided there was no better time than now. A dangerous time for a new collection, now that the not-so-steely #marchspendingban is dead and gone! What initially drew … Continue reading

April Wishlist
March 31, 2012(Topshop Boutique knitted vest, OPI Gouda Gouda Two Shoes nail polish, All Saints Petrel Brodie Jeans, ASOS Bitten heels, Fashionology Cross bangle, Zara bowling bag) I’m definitely having a knitwear moment. Only until recently have I been favouring knitted pieces over the usual plain and printed jerseys in my favourite high-street haunts. They are the perfect transitional piece from winter to spring (minus the hasty heatwave we’ve just been treated to). This vest from … Continue reading

#GoslingisGod
March 23, 2012For his incredible filmography and super-cool steeze, Ryan Gosling has become somewhat of an internet phenomenon at 30 years old. His handsome looks might have played a small part in his modest rise, too, but the more movies I watch and interviews I read, the more I am absolutely determined that one human being can finally be labelled ‘perfect’. And I am allowed to make statements as mawkish as that, as we are after all … Continue reading

The March Playlist
March 13, 2012I don’t usually write a lowdown of my monthly playlists, but I am in love with every single song I have chosen this month. This may make me sound like a music floozy, but I seriously don’t give a damn! Here are the songs that I think are pitch-perfect for the month of March: 1. Friends – I’m His Girl Played on many a catwalk at this season’s London Fashion Week, this track has a … Continue reading
