Trade My Wardrobe With… Molly in Uptown Girls

It is with a lot of fondness and great sadness that I spent time going through Brittany Murphy’s outfits in Uptown Girls today.

Fashion: Why Rihanna Is The Perfect Cure To Coachella Fatigue

Say what you will about Rihanna’s personal style, at least she’s got bags of it. Personally, I feel like she looks like a hot mess most of the time, but I also rate her for it. She breaks down fashion cliches every chance she gets, sporting tops, bottoms and dresses that barely fit the human form on the regular. It’s been a journey watching her … Continue reading Fashion: Why Rihanna Is The Perfect Cure To Coachella Fatigue

San Francisco: 41 Things You Should Know

Before moving to San Francisco, I had this Hollywood-fed image of the city – a Fullhouse-Mrs-Doubtfire fueled ocean of cute, colourful houses on hills.

Fashion: Trade My Wardrobe With… Courtney Love

Not to obsess over the 90s but it seems it’s one of the eras that really stuck with me style-wise. Funnily enough my style isn’t particularly 90s inspired at all, nevertheless I can’t help but look back on that decade and think that the grimy grunge style they had going is how I’d like to dress most days. The staple destroyed-rag-doll outfit is one of … Continue reading Fashion: Trade My Wardrobe With… Courtney Love

If I were lucky enough to ever meet the stylist who turned Rachel Green from Friends into a fashion icon, it would probably turn into a horrible groupie-style incident for which I’d get slapped with a restraining order. Fair enough. Like many fashion fanatics out there, Rachel always stood out of the Friends cast to me for having the absolute best outfits – 5 years, … Continue reading Fashion: Trade My Wardrobe With… Rachel Green

Fashion: Trade My Wardrobe With… Fearne Cotton

If one were to venture a wild guess, it wouldn’t be incongruous to assume that Fearne Cotton has a wardrobe the size of a football pitch. Celebrities seldom wear the same outfit twice in a row, granted, but Ms Cotton being a radio presenter, doesn’t exactly hold the same notoriety as say, Jennifer Lawrence, nor the same bank account. Nevertheless, aside from a few select … Continue reading Fashion: Trade My Wardrobe With… Fearne Cotton
