Spanky Pants

My constant wailing “put some pants on” has finally sunken into the teenagers head!

No one should suffer hypothermia with the amount of choice that’s around at the moment. Neons are still hanging in there, pastels have crept in and prints are massive.

While B and I both have alot going on up top we are blessed with legs like sticks so we can carry pretty much anything, hence our tug of war over the most stunning pair of leopard leggings I found earlier in the year from Revolution.

The only thing I found I can’t get away with is the wet look legging. When did my knees start to resemble two small bulldogs with way too much skin?. But I have not been defeated I have taken to wearing them under my knee length 50’s style Cue dress, take that gravity.

And the award for best range, best prints, and ridiculously low prices ... Kmart of all places.

Hey Sailor

I knew lurking around the M.A.C  store would pay off! I just happened to be there on Monday while they were unpacking their new range “Hey Sailor” so I got to have a little nosey.

Can’t wait to get my Pinup face on with “Racer Red” lipstick which has already sold out in other countries, “Touch of Red” nail lacquer and the “Fleet Fast” powder blush. It's all so vamp camp 80's and just when I'd mastered the art of perfect blended contouring, back comes the blush stripe!

I also couldn’t help eyeing up the new bags (I have a bag fixation this week).

Me Undies

Not actually mine but www.meundies.com.

I wouldn’t normally be a pro monthly subscription kinda girl (we’ve all been tied into a contract receiving fruit of the month or a gym membership we couldn’t get out of!) but this sounds like a brilliant idea

I like the idea of choosing a new pair every month, I like the idea even more of not having to go into a shop to do it, and I love the idea that I will always have at least 1 pair of non faded undies with fully functioning elastic at any given moment.

Donna Summer 1948 - 2012

It takes me right back to when I was 6 singing and dancing along to Mum's records  in our lounge (yeah thats vinyl people). I was probably wearing my cherry printed boob tube with matching skirt and knee high brown leather boots (I loved that outfit must try and find a photo). Good times. I truly pity those of you who missed the 80’s!
