Trend Shoes

I have been veggie for a few months now. So no more rare steak for me. But I do like Rare dresses. I attended the press day last week with Reena, Ozzy and Kristabel for some Fashion blogger frolicks.
Let's talk dresses first.
I will admit, I was sceptical first of Rare dresses, after the collaboration with The Saturdays. I did enjoy seeing the band live, but I wouldn't exactly go out in one of their dresses. However, I went in with an open mind and clean nails. This press day did not disappoint. The gang from ThinkPublicity were very welcoming, handed me a cocktail of my choice and were very friendly.
What I liked about the collection was...
The use of lace panelling...




Neurotica-esque shapes and prints...


Frills and such...


Floral print...

Minnie mouse dress...

Not only did I enjoy the collection, I got to get my nails done, courtesy of London Nails. Check out mine and Christabel's nails..I left merrier, with a goody bag in my freshly painted nails and ready to chitchat with the world. UPDATE: Me being the klutz that I am, have already chipped my nails.

Well you guys, my technology jinx continues to plague me wherever I go. My housemates have been in London for almost two whole months and we are STILL WAITING for broadband.
But c'est la vie.
But I'm making my americano last while I use wifi in a famous coffee establishment and will blog until the last dregs of cold coffee is taken out of my hands.
Let me tell you some news.
-I have not bought one thing in London yet, due to the terribly cruel thing that is paying rent/council tax in Central London.
-I walk past this window in an office for some graffic designers on the appropriately named "Fashion Street" on my way to work every morning. It says a lot to me.

-I made some great new people from the blogosphere.
-SaveOurShoes will be having a competition soon, so keep your eyes peeled.
-I am currently listening to a lot of Waaves, Theoretical Girl, The Flaming Lips, Sonny and the Sunsets and The Girls at Dawn.
-The Sophie Calle exhibition in WhiteChapel Gallery is very good. Bit pretentious, but I enjoy hipsterrunoff as much as the next indie art student kid.
-I am really good at making plum cobbler.Enjoy your weekends kids, pack the umbrellas as the forecast is bad.
Peace, fi xx

This post has been a long time coming. It has been on the back burner for a while (mainly as I have been waiting for a picture from a friend but it has yet to arrive... he knows what I am talking about). Anyway, during my fun-filled summer, I spent occasional stints in my hometown of Midleton, Co. Cork, Ireland. If you know me, you will know I am NOT a massive fan of this little town. I have been mildly homesick for homecomforts, like family and friends, here in London, but if I could move a group them to London, this niggling feeling would be gone.
