I don't know what the technical term is for when you're looking for one thing on eBay and you come across something else that then leads you somewhere else again. Being bored? I dunno. That's how I came across these sexy beast shoes, anyway.

Can you say second rate Rodarte?? MAN, they're awesome. I totes want to buy these, get out my stud gun and some nails and create a pair of bitching BDSM shoes. Don't you go bidding on my shoes now I've shared this with you plz.

Once a KISS pumpkin has been achieved, you'd be forgiven for thinking you'd made it as a vegetable carver extraordinaire (wait, is a pumpkin a fruit?), but you'd be wrong. So, so, so pitifully wrong.



I mean SRSLY, how embarrassed are you? I'm like, 11 out of 10 embarrassed. How did I make it to 24.5 years of age without thinking of this? I'm appalled, frankly, at anyone who has ever told me I'm a good person, clever, or funny. I am none of those three adjectives, because I never once thought of a Chanel pumpkin. Ugh, I feel sick. CocoChic is the new black, all hail CocoChic. Arise, Sir CocoChic. FabSugar are also kinda responsible, so all hail them too.

PS I feel it's only fair to tell you that the KISS pumpkin above isn't mine. It's made by this dude. However, I did make one last year that was basically identical AND EQUALLY AMAZING.

I spent all weekend being all smug about the weather, and now the gods of nature have decided to punish me. Oh it's so humid in London! There's been no real rain for weeks! I might have a winter picnic!

Fuck you, Gibson, said the weather. Today was gross. Dark, rainy, windy. Well y'know what I say? Fuck you, rain! Fuck you right back.

Rain's eye view;



In your face, rain! Buy a Fuck The Rain umbrella here, and feel better about things.

I can't believe I forgot about this. I was so excited when I saw the pics then totes forgot about it. I blame the Fiendish Fancies.



Here's Daisy Lowe (and her hanger-on mum, who I LOVED in Powder circa 10 years ago) advertising a box of SUGAR PUFFS that she designed. Well done Daisy! Well done. I was glad to see the Honey Monster himself made an appearance, although I was sad that Getty didn't tag him with his name.

Sugar Puffs make your wee smell, that's all I'm gonna say.

HOW expensive are coats? I thought probably somewhere in the region of £60, but no. Even Topshop is charging upwards of £80 for a POLYESTER (49%) blend jacket. I really want a new winter coat, despite having something like 100, but at those prices I just can't justify it at the moment. Even Ebay is failing me, and I have no desire to go shopping IRL at the moment.

I'm going to Sheffield soon, and I am hoping and praying that two jackets I left in the garage to go to the jumble sale are still there. Things go to our garage to get sorted and sent to jumble/charity shops/those bags you leave on the doorstep, but they never seem to make it any further. Whenever I go back I have a rummage and inevitably end up taking half the stuff back with me. It's recycling, kinda. Anyway, I think I have a purple suede coat with massive fur trim (it's virtually identical to this, but better) and I also think I have a Del Boy-esque sheepskin jacket that I kind of can't stop thinking about. I seem to remember I abandoned it because it was my dad's in the 70s (lol) and he's at least a foot taller than me and about three times as wide, but we shall see.

Anyway, if you have a spare £85, this coat is from Topshop. Want.
