Wrap up!

So if the other night is anything to go by, temperatures are reaching an all time low. I was on my way out for some festive drinks and was informed that later we would be experiencing temperatures of -27 degrees. Great news for the polar bears, not so great news for us!
So in keeping with the spirit of comfort and warmth I came across these delicious vintage fur wraps and coats to throw on when braving the cold winter nights
1950s Mink Wrap
1970s Rabbit Fur Jacket
While real fur may not be everyone’s cup of tea, vintage furs are the most eco friendly way of wrapping up without the price tag of guilt!
Having been around for decades and passed down through generations, thrift shops and vintage fairs; these mink and rabbit furs are more of a piece of history than a throwaway piece of fashion that suggests any animal indiscretions... So worry not, just wrap up with these gorgeous one-of-a-kind furs; nature’s way of keeping us toasty during the hibernation season!

Love,

Is it a girl... is it a boy??

Androgny is here is a new form... the form of Andrej Pejic - new IT boy of the top modelling world and my new personal fascination.

  

 Androgynous muses in the form of Agyness Deyn have taken a back seat and the new faces of beauty and everything that is innovative and fresh have emerged onto the top catwalks for menswear AND womenswear this season. As seen on catwalks such as Jean Paul Gaultier, John Galliano and Raf Simons to name a few...

When asked if he minded being the only male on an all female catwalk Andrej replied the "I don't mind really, as long as it's creative" - spoken  like a true lover of the arts and creativity.

He also admitted that the reason for his new found success was probably due to the fact that "people in the industry get bored easily..., and every so often they need a new toy to play with".

People have been trying to come up with pronouns to describe this new form of fe/male crossbreed of person.... such as 'hir', 'zhe', 'zher', 'zhim' ( none of which have really caught on with the general english speaking population) since the 19th century, but who knows, we may now see a revival of these phrases to describe this new crossbreed of male and female that i predict will become the new 'in' thing to be/do....

Watch this space boys/girls
(how about b-irls?/ g-oys? - doesnt have the best ring to it!)
