Writing blog posts in list format since 2011, was before anyone else cottoned on. Favoured listicles include 90s nostalgia and general life observations.
Nostalgia hit me this week when I stumbled across my old crimpers in my parents house, and I started to have dreamy flash backs on all the crazes (and now cringes) I went through with my beauty ‘regime’ as a kid-turned-angry-teen in the 80s slash 90s. Any of these trends ring any bells? 1. The […]
Oh, the 90s gave good summer song. Maybe it was the wave of head swaying, fringe-flopping-in-face, bouncy Britpop (we’re looking at YOU, Alex from Blur) or maybe it was the chav-tastic RnB choons or the anthemic RAWK songs or the fact that it seemed to be sunny FOREVER back then, but they just don’t make […]
Hello, music fans. This is the follow-up to my ground-breaking Top 10 music videos where they walk down the street post, which was about ten music videos in which they walk down the street. Similarly, this post will showcase ten music videos in which they drive a car, which is why I’ve decided to entitle […]
If the Mayans are right, the world is going to end tomorrow. So as we approach our date with destiny spend all your and everyone else’s money, leave the dishes, tell everyone you love you love them and punch everyone you hate. Most importantly, build a fort using your duvet and two chairs and spend […]
They don’t make Christmas hits like they used to, eh? With boybands and snow and jingle bells and… Brian Harvey. Behold five of the best Christmas songs from the nineties – and we left Mariah Carey out ON PURPOSE. 1. New Kids On The Block – Merry, Merry Christmas (1989) God, I used to LOVE […]
Sporting a festive knit from now until January is the sartorial equivalent of brussels sprouts; of dubious taste but seasonal necessity. To avoid looking like a friggin’ fun sponge YOU HAVE TO WEAR ONE. Like a painful Christmas cracker joke, festive knits make an instant impression no one thinks they will forget (but they generally […]
As Creative Director at US Vogue since the late 80s, Grace reminds us again of her creative genius, career tenacity and serious hair with the release of her memoirs. Why is she the bomb? See just a few reasons below… 1. Former model Grace, 71, mostly attends the office without make-up wearing practical black. This […]
So that’s it then. It’s Christmas. WELL IT MAY AS WELL BE *shivers, eats soup. Puts fire on. Plays Slade. AGAIN.* So instead of roasting chestnuts, stuffing gooses etc (ERM, I totally stuff gooses. Geese. What?) and dreaming about merry white Christmases (ahem), I’m MOSTLY dreaming about my winter wardrobe. And here’s my top five […]
Action, sci-fi or horror is what you’ll usually find in my film bag, baby, but I do occasionally love me a good sports movie. Sadly, for the most part films about football are complete cheese-fests; there have been a couple that stand out, stand the test of time, stand up to criticism, stand by me. […]
The British Summer has been working part time, hasn’t it? Just when we think it’s finally starting to sort it’s life out for the home stretch, it throws out another day where we need to cover up our ankles. I think it needs a bit of a helping hand. Cue a special Le Blow Hip […]
