"It's vintage" - "don't you mean second hand,...
I know I know, the high street isn’t cool…. but……
For the past few years the high street as been looked down on, as young hipsters opted for vintage boutiques and charity shop finds. When someone asks “where did you find that amazing cardigan?”, more and more people would respond with “in my granny’s attic” rather than, “at French...
High Street retail turning heads!
Yesterday at Graduate Fashion Week, I witnessed something wonderful.
High street retailer, River Island (official sponsor of GFW) showed just how much they’re embracing the new possiblities for marketing strategies in fashion retail.
Already heavily and succesfully using online social media, such as Twitter, blogs and video broadcasts - River Island have shown their dedication to the new...

The "toy twins"? - not cool Mary. Not cool at all.
Last night saw the first episode of Mary Portas show, ‘Mary Queen of Charity Shops’ aired by the BBC.
This retail witchy fairy godmother descended on a Save the Children charity shop in Orpington, dismounted her broomstick and began her quest to change the face of Britain’s charity shops.
While I’m fully supportive of this idea - It’s the perfect time, as more...

Jourdan Dunn - Snoop Dog's long lost daughter?
Miggy: Oh look, there's Jourdan Dunn again
The Boyfriend: Who?
Miggy: You know, the model I kept pointing out to you at all the Fashion Week shows
The Boyfriend: The black one or the one with the walk?
Miggy: The black one
(The boyfriend glances at the magazine on my lap)
The Boyfriend: Yeah - I don't get what all the fuss is about. She looks like Snoop Dog.
Miggy: What?!
The Boyfriend: She could easily be his daughter
Miggy: Snoop Dog?
The Boyfriend: Seriously
Vintage dress up box in N8
I found a lovely little vintage shop in my local area.
Unfortunately they’re keeping it really vintage and haven’t got any web presence at all (yes, i gave them a smack on the back of the hand for that!) but you should definitely vist them. They’re lovely and you’ll feel as though you’ve walked into a little private dressing up box.

Teens like to party...
There are so many different corners of the internet that contribute to the world of fashion - even when they didn’t intend to go that way.
A prime example of this is photography site The Cobrasnake, started by Mark Hunter (the photographer).
I actually met him back in 2006, when he photographed me at a Mickey Avalon gig in Camden.
Mark began The cobrasnake site as a photoblog. Archiving...
The cutest nose...
….and the winner is…..
Suzanne Strutt.
This 23 year old model from Profile Model Management is just adorable.
I called her in to cast for a fashion show at The Rouundhouse last month and just loved her face.
Here’s the snap I took of her on the day of the casting:
She has that gorgeous elfin look down to perfection and had such a lovely energy about her too.
So If you...

Another Martini please..
Last Friday I made use of my complimentary ticket for Clothes Show London. Of course my first stop was at the stall belonging to my good friend and fantastic jewellery designer, Zoe Jones.
Zoe alerted me to the fact that there was alcohol being handed out - free. I quickly went in search of this benevolent Martini bar and once I found it, almost hung about all day! :)
I did spot that fantastic...

Shoreditch Pout.
At my recent POUT. event which was sponsored by the lovely SIP and Fashion Targets, My co-organiser Lewis Webb and I were pulled aside and asked a few questions by superstar entrepreneur and citizen journalist, Hermione Way.
The response was a little garbled from me, as I had already managed to drink a few vodka sodas but luckily Lewis was still compos mentos! ;)
Here’s what we had to...

Not only boys have web dreams....
Say it loud and proud: ” I HAD A WEB DREAM”
The other night I had the most graphic web dream of all time. I awoke suddenly, thoughts of exciting new media possibilities running through my head and sure enough, my laptop just beside me, on the bedside table.
Hungry for my breakfast portion of social media interaction , I rubbed my sleepy eyes, and woke up the computer.
Just a few seconds and I...
fashion heads and new media geeks - Shoreditch Pout was a huge success. Thanks to all - see pics here : http://snurl.com/j5b7y
