The new season of Gossip Girl is just days away so hands up who is more than a little bit excited! And keep those hands up if you happen to have acquired an unhealthy headband or plaid fetish since the show started. Still keep them sky high if you have considered changing your name to something really exotic like Table or Jessica with a silent ‘G’. Wow… you really are all obsessed. Which is why we thought you might appreciate a little GG inspired online shopping. Ridiculously perfect blow dry is not included.
You know you love it xoxo

Down with love

Everyone has those days. Those nobody loves me, everybody hates me, better go and eat some worms kind of days. Days where your boss yells at you, your boyfriend goes MIA, your mum calls you your sisters name, your bestie cancels girl’s night, no one comments on you Facebook status and even your dog can’t be bothered getting excited about you.
And what’s a girl to do on days like this? Well she should open her heart to the only man worth relying on, Mr Marc Jacobs. Especially with his current loved-up feel collection. And at least you know with MJ the only thing you’re going to have to pay is your Visa bill.
PS – eLuxury is the only place stocking this clutch at the moment, so you can either hold off and hope net-a-porter or yoox gets it in asap, OR you can be really impatient like us and order it through www.shopanyamericanstore.com.

Bag ladies

Ok, ok, ok. We get it. You girls really love your bags. The owl bag we featured earlier this week sold out a whole five minutes after we hit the big old send button. And for all those who have emailed us wanting to either beg, borrow or steal yourselves one, our sources tell us they will be back in stock shortly. So breathe! But in the mean time perhaps we can tempt your with this very rock ‘n’roll bag by Urban Originals… hell we’ve already tempted ourselves!

Party pieces

Everyone has their little five-too-many-chardies party piece. Some become Olga the Swedish exchange student (even long after they stopped being carded). Some like to break out the complete choreography to Hit Me Baby One More Time. And others pride themselves on doing various unspeakable things with Monte Carlo biscuits (don’t ask!).
Personally we like to be the ones with the most gorgeous accessories – it helps to cover up the fact that our top is from Target and our fly is probably undone.

What a hoot!

“It” bags are over. You heard it here first. Finally women all around the world are dumping their identical designer (or designer inspired) bags and beginning the hunt for something more unique, more affordable and much less disposable. Case in point, this adorable owl adorned bag. Although the shape is slightly Prada, the owl is nothing but divine. And you’re not about to see twenty other women sporting it in seven different colours at your next office party. That is unless half your office subscribes to our website. Hmmm…. tricky.

I was at the gym a little while ago, swearing at myself and trying not to inhale the stench of Mr Manboobs next to me, when a “news” flash on Today Tonight made me turn off my treadmill, cancel my membership and leave. And what was this amazing story? No it wasn’t anything about catching flesh-eating foot diseases from the skuzzy showers, or how jogging in unsupportive sports bras will leave you with boobs around your ankles by 40. It was about this dress. The Natasha Gan “Power Dress”, which has just come back into stock at eightthirteen.com.au. This dress has been beautifully crafted to hug, skim and cinch in all your wobbly bits – and enhance everything else. It’s already got a cult-following of curvy ladies to rival the Roland Mouret “galaxy” dress, and you don’t need a second mortgage to buy it. Fitness first who?
But it now link:

Ode to Zoe

Of all our celebrity crushes, Rachel Zoe would have to be our biggest. Not only does she have the most enviable wardrobe in the world, lots of fabulous friends and one of the best fashion eyes in the business, but thanks to her new reality TV show, we now also know she’s super-smart, hard working and just really, really lovely! We are even obsessed with her two assistants (yes, even the mean one!). So until the day that Ms Zoe and co call us up and invite us into her BFF inner-circle, we’ll just have to satisfy our unhealthy obsession with a few of her trademark pieces (and her book of course, we’ve read it five times and counting).
