Sale Time . . .

With the high street going mental with numerous shoppers hitting the sale rails the safest way to do your shopping at the moment is the online way. This also helps dodge the 'why are you in the mens/kids/maternity sections going through the sale bins?!' look. The online way gives you the ease and self assurance that you will 'look good in this'. It also lets you find some bits and bobs that you would never have found or looked for whilst in the shops.
Take for example these cheeky Tee's from Topman sale and Topshop, perfect for the festival season and lounging out in the park with pims!
The Horse never fails to inspire

Burlesque is all the rage at the moment

Always an Eastender fan

Channeling the This Is England Look,
the classic DILAD 


The New Look online sale is always a great time to buy up the basics for the upcoming Autumn, especially in the Teenage section, (with 14-15 years being of a size 8-10 in adult) with their hoodies and sweats selection in the style of Abercrombie, its a steal with prices starting at £4.00

''when i see fans with my boy hair, its amazing, so flattering . . . go on girls lets chop it off''

HANNA

From the moment the film begins you can feel this will be memorable. 'I just missed your heart' the opening and closing lines of the film, set the tone for this action packed, thrilling ride of a movie. Saoirse Ronan delivers a immaculate and impressive interpretation of her character and completely commands the attention of the audience throughout the entire film. Her naturally innocent face and elf like features make her flawless and brutal character all the more endearing. The soft central scenes of the film and her friendships with the traveling family show she is a product of her environment and not innately dangerous. There are touches of humor as well, 'Hanna how did your mother die?' '3 bullets' that made the audience uproar with laughter. These moments contrasts with the dark and evil character that Tom Hollander plays for example. Summing up the plot, this film should (in stereotypical conventions of film character) have cast a male to play the main protagonist, and maybe an older one at that. But they didn't and it works. The film would have lost its appeal and its rarity if this had happened. With truly breathtaking pieces of cinematography (deer/snow/her) fluttering through its pace against one of the most current sound tracks for years, Hanna (Ronan) keeps it real and believable and truly kicks arse (for once) doing it like a girl!

Royal Dudes

The country/world have been going Royal Wedding crazy pre and post last weekends big event, with fashionistas bursting with excitement with anticipation of Kate's dress. Absolutely stunning. However lets not forget the boys! Prince William and Prince Harry, who did not disappoint in their attire, William with his striking red and Harry's regal and mature style, had me inspired! In honor of them and all are soldier boys around the world I have found these military gems on ASOS.com ( and even better some are in the sale! YAY! )
