Do ya wanna see Shamoo with me?

I just love this video for "Sophisticated Side Ponytail" by the band Brite Futures (formally know as Natalie Portman's Shaved Head or NPSH, apparently Natalie Portman wasn't so keen on their name, what a faeces brain.) var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-26550619-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src...

Have fun with Faux Fur

Fur coats always look so warm and cosy, it's like hibernating whilst walking around. And although I'd prefer the hibernating in bed idea, it's not always an option.I love the look and feel of real fur, but I can't help feel it probably looks and feels much nicer on the animal itself. So I'm all for a bit of faux fur.Here are some lovely faux fur coats I've found for this Autumn/Winter:Colour Blocking Coat: $66...

Wedges!

Wedges seem to be pretty popular on the catwalk this Autumn/Winter. I'm especially in love with sand coloured wedges! They're earthy enough to team with the aubergine, teal and mustard tones of an Autumn/Winter outfit but light enough to wear into spring.I love these Oxford wedges by Seychelles, $130.00.But at £55, I think I love these Dr Martens wedges even more! (PonyChops Ginge has a pair of these and they are stunning!)I think I need...

The Big Knit 2011

Smoothies are a good way of getting a few of your 5 a day, and in winter especially, it is important we take care of ourselves inside and out, in particular all the oldies out there.It's a horrible thought that in times as developed as they are now, some elderly people cant afford to keep themselves warm on these cold winter nights due to ever increasing heating bills.However, there is hope at the end of the tunnel, the people at Innocent Smoothie...
