TGI Payday: Get some nuts!

Leather studded motorbike jacket We are not going to yell, stamp or throw a Snickers at you. But we do really think you need to toughen up!!

Now there are several ways you can do this ;

 1 – You can buy this very studly jacket, it’s a bit on the exxy side, but you know you’ll feel a million bucks when you wear it.

2 – You can do what our very frugal forum friend ShoeGal did and buy some cheapo studs off eBay (click here for her link!) and DIY one up for yourself.

Now if you’ll excuse us we need to go and get our foreheads pierced before heading to the park to scream obscenities at the pigeons.

Pretty things: Layer cake

 Red Lucette dress

With more assorted layers than that crazy mousse cake they made on Masterchef, this dress is super sweet, goes well with coffee and better yet it’s calorie-free.

Channelling: Smells like teen spirit

Channelling Nirvana style

It’s been quite a while since being called one of the great unwashed was seen as a compliment, rather than a fairly outdated class-based slur. But apparently greasy hair, ripped jeans and holey sweaters are the new black, so who are we to argue.

…big necklaces are back… again! So if you can’t quite afford the Prada felt ‘bib’ necklace (yep, that’s right we’ve come full circle and are all wearing bibs again), and your DIY bedazzling days are long gone. Never fear there are just so sooo many options avaible, like these three from Forever21, none of which come close to breaking even the strictest of budgets.

Store crush: I don’t like Mondays

Something Else capeI feel a bit sorry for Monday’s, they really do get the shabby end of the stick. I mean it’s hardly their fault where they sit in the weekly line up, and it’s not like they can just decide to up and swap with Thursday’s or any other nonsense. So anyway, poor old Mondays. Get out your violins.

Luckily there is an online store out their doing their bit for positive Monday slanted PR, cheekily named I don’t like Monday’s, this is possibly our new favourite site. With loads of great labels like Maurie & Eve, Something Else, Cheap Monday and Alexander Wang.  We actually love this site so much that waking up this morning was definitely a tiny bit less painful.

So we apologise, for everyone else it’s just pretty exciting to find out about the circus inspired limited edition range which will be hitting Forever21 on July 29th.
