My Picks For The New Season

I know. No puns, no lame one-liners. Just a simple blog title. But don't be fooled- this is no simple post.

Oh no, there is salivating akimbo at my end. 

Granted, it may be August. The sun may be shining. My Sure Maximum Protect anti-perspirant may be tested to the limit. I may be using fake tan like there's no tomorrow......

And yet I am SO excited for autumn already!

Maybe it's because the whale flesh can be covered up more easily in the chilly months?.....But personally I think it's because I get to go SHOPPING!

And unlike those idiot looters over the last couple of days- I like to actually pay honestly for things. And as for the buffoon who burnt down Miss Selfridge?! Well, sacrilige should be punished with a burning of his own! He was sporting a JD bag for pete's sake, he wouldn't know style if Anna Wintour punched him in the face.

Not that I can imagine Anna Wintour punching anyone.
......................I imagine her as a Medusa type character-------- if ever she removes those sunnies and looks you in the eyes....well....you're in the shit.

Anwyay, back to what we came here to do.

Here are my (fashion- I will do beauty later) picks of the A/W season. Some of them are dreams. Mere dreams. Some of them, however, I've already bagged. Because I'm that frickin' smooth, baby.


How Mad Men. A beaut from River Island. And ALREADY in my closet.
£50......

Imagine if River Island was an actual place. I mean, I know it is a place; it's a shop. But imagine if it was an actual island. Imagine the Amazonian models prancing around in the latest get-up.....Then again, maybe not.

These are FABULOUS. And not just if you're a well dressed robber. RI, £24.99


And now we enter New Look.......


I love love LOVE these shoes! As soon as pay day comes, I'm getting them. Provided I can shove my sausage feet in to them....I usually have to go for the wide fit in New Look...there was an unfortunate incident with some cut out peep toes in the 'normal' section last week......it was not pretty and it did involve a certain someone being escorted away. £29.99





And these. £19.99. Now, I did try these on, and I know they feet. 1-0 to me.


£27.99. I like this.


£24.99. Very Frankie Sandford.



I know it's autumn, but I still think colours are a must, £34.99

These booties are from Very, £40.00.......and just between me and you, they're REALLY easy to walk in. .....Not that *cough* I have them already....*cough*

Now Boohoo....No I'm not crying, I'm talking the fashion label....


£20.00. I wish I had the figure to pull this off....but then I'm sure I've seen Joan Holloway in a similar number and she has both front luggage AND junk in the trunk....sooooooooooooooo.................


Accessorize. Yes, they're £16.00- but they've got the word 'Queen' in the name! SOLD!

  1. Oh your blog posts do make me giggle! Especially the bit about Anna Wintour. I can't imagine her ever hitting some-one, I agree that she's probably quite like Medusa, and can reduce anyone to a puddle of quivering jelly with a sharp look!
    I lovelovelove basically everything here. In fact, I picked up this bag in RI last week...but it was caught on something and loads of things fell over so I left, very quickly. I still want the bag though!
    And the shirt dress! Oh I love me a shirt dress! xx
