GET GLOSSY ASAP.

Just to let you lovely people know, Glossy Magazine is now available on Zinio.com for the bargain price of £6.00 a year. It is completely worth it, the magazines are fantastic and through Zinio can be read on your iphone and ipad's.

Clogish.

After swearing that I will never ever own a clog (I figured that the awkward shoe shuffle just does not suit me) I dipped my toes into the pond of clog this week with the purchase of these beauties. By far my favourite shoes of the summer and dare I say it... comfortable.

Beauty Binge.

Last time I introduced you to Lisa Eldridge's fantastic video's. Well I am now going to reveal the consequences of what happens when you watch them... Beauty Binges. Last week, after eyeing up her fabulous nail colours forked out for a Chanel nail polish, Illamasqua bronzer and am now looking at new foundation.

Nevertheless I have to say I love the nail polish and cannot wait to lap up the bronzer in Espana soon.

Midi...NO

The glossy's over the past few weeks have been raving about the midi-skirt being back in fashion; 'the figure flattering skirt that will make you look like Sandy from Grease is back.' Big Woop. Personally the shape is far too grandma for me, unless cut just at the knee this is. The midi-skirts I am referring to is the one's cut at the calf, you know the ones that allow women to pile on a few pounds and not shave their legs. The style should be left in the fifties or at least made a little more controversial, perhaps a thigh high split (Christopher Kane this is aimed at you, I am hoping for a leather, floral embroidered, thigh high split midi please!)

NOT A FAN.

Who wears the trousers?

FINALLY the season of skinny legs is almost over, as I have far from nice legs I could not be more overjoyed. Trousers are here and as with the previous season they are the way to make this season's style statement. Whether pegleg, wide leg, hareem, cigarette, sport luxe, cropped, straight or ultra skinny it is time to find your trouser style. I advise starting with Gap's new trouser range 'Premium Pant' and ASOS's trouser devoted shop, it is time to get in control and find your power pants!
