Watch Simon's Cat


Take a gander at this great little cartoon I stumbled onto on YouTube. 'Simon's Cat' by Simon Tofield are short film about the workings of Simon's mischievous feline...despite there being only a few (7 exactly) it doesn't water down the concentration of humour and quality of his work. Take a look. Je l'aime

Judging A Book By Its Cover...

thegoldbook.png

                   

Last Friday it so happens I was in John Lewis, only to accompany my sister in her 'what to wear to Nancy's wedding' shopping. While she was paying for whatever it was she had come there for, I (like an ADHD toddler) began perusing for distractions to amuse myself. Not by luck I believe, I was standing by a book stand and not long after realising I saw this beauty of a book pulling at my heart things (shiny, pretty, hummingbird and blossom tree things) I didn't bother looking inside. Instead, impulsively, I picked it up and strode to the cashiers counter knowing full well I was going to buy it regardless of whether it was a cleverly disguised book of Quantum Physics or a Book of Uglies (whatever that may be).

Sandals and Sunglasses

TO ACCOMPANY THE RADIO SHOW
If you happened to listen to my show this morning (on BANG Radio) then you wouldn't need to guess that these are the sandals that I was enthusiastically going, around, up and down about. I'm patiently waiting for it to hit the shops or online so I can acquire them but at the moment they seem to hiding from me. I believe they could make even the most busted of toes look attractive! They are £44.99 c'est magnifique.
 
And if you never quite understood why you could never get stunners (or sunglasses to the non slang user) that made you look amazing then it could quite possibly be because you were not shopping for your face shape:

Bambi Earrings

   

Oui, that is Bambi on my ears appearing as if whispering sweet little nothings to me, they could not be more cute and fantastical. You will notice my ears are not pierced, they weren't when I was a baby, not until my latter teens, then something bad happened and now, well no more holes. It's a blessing though, I wouldn't have had to customise and make my own earrings were it not for my tradegy (the sunny of a problem). In anyway the best reaction to my Bam Bams (from what can only be described as a fire starter) is: 'You look like you've run through a forest'. ha ha ha I laugh (at you). What if I had? What great fun that would be.

Look At Me Me

               

Not much to tell madams and monsieurs apart from this is my slow and cautious transition into spring time. Unlike some, I am fully loaded with the know that spring brings sun and chills hence the scarf and the very compromising preforated boots (that, by the by, I've been longing to wear since Autumn 2009: oui I stock clothes that long!).

Dealing With My Androgyny

     

...It's probably the most powerful and attention seeking look I've had. I've been thinking about it *I also think La Roux, Agyness Deyne, Grace Jones, David Bowie, Prince, Tilda Swinton and despite not trying, they all exude some sort of coolness without expecting to. This of course is when I question my choice, they help to remind me it is fitting....I'm hoping my exuding is doing the same (fingers crossed). It seems to me the ultimate principle of androgyny is Samsonite, in other words
