I was stressing out about writing a snazzy, well-versed, achingly cool and oh-so informative intro for this piece… but at the end of the blaaady day, the title kinda manages your expectations, no? ~throws out all the old skool SEO training from circa 2010 because no Google, I don’t GAF if I’ve stuffed 32942875 key […]
Things that will only make sense if you attended school in the UK in the golden years of the 80s and 90s.
Christmas gift guide for the girl who will mostly be watching Home Alone on repeat this festive season, while dressed like Cher Horowitz and listening to E17’s Stay (that’s all of us here at Le Blow, then…) Disco trainers Because heels are for losers (or people who have learnt to walk in them in adverse […]
I felt pretty pleased with myself over the summer when I (cue #humblebrag) got snapped street style at a few festivals and, when asked to ‘sum up my style in three words, came up with: 60s meets 90s But pondering this sartorial scenario post season, it has occured to me that there was a HUGE […]
