RANT!

We all need them once in a while and today I need one in a big way....

My weekend was filled with so much excitement and fun that it is difficult to need to rant but my Sunday was frustrating and clumsy and I hope that by venting my terrible day I will get rid of whatever malevolent cloud it was that seemed to follow me around yesterday!

Soooooo  here goes!

Firstly, my best buddy cancelled our day trip to Bluewater, this was no biggy but what it meant was that I ventured there alone!  I know what your thinking .. I spent money I did not have and now regret it..  WRONG!  It took me 20mins to get to the shopping Mecca and then 30 minutes trying to find a space!  Yes I said 30 minutes of driving in and out and up and down various car parks only to be greeted by other shoppers driving in aggressive manners stalking other shoppers who had bags back to their cars!  I felt I was above this option and instead drove in and out a total of 4 car parks before actually finding a spot!
I then ventured inside the shopping centre only to be run over 4 times by various buggy's and in fact fall over not once but twice in House of Fraser!  This however did not perterb me I went to H&M and did the shopping that I needed to do well about 1/3rd of the shopping I needed but hey!

I then venture home and begin to put some tester colours on our bedroom wall (we are thinking about re-decorating)  All of the colours are disgusting and it was a total waist of time so i decide to take the testers out to our shed!  But on route I drop them and my Uggs, Sweaty Betty trackys and my car wheel now resemble a Jackson Pollock painting.  Defeated I retreat to the comfort of my basement to snuggle up with a glass of vino and a hobnob to watch Strictly and X Factor results....

What a travesty that was, rather than cheering me up, my eyes and ears where offended by the reality that the big bird impersonator is going to be returning to my screens once again.  This means that next Saturday I will be glued to the TV with morbid curiosity, just so I can see what terrible outfit they come up with to top the BIG BIRD look of this week!

Then I switch to X Factor hoping that tonight will be the night that we finally see the back of Wagner and his talk singing and hideous style but instead Paije who I thought was a real cutey is out!  
ARRRrrrrrrrggggghhhhh 
Outraged and hormonal I ask could this day get any worse! 
Then like the answer to my prayers the aromas of cooked apple pie waft down the stairs from the oven.
Suddenly the Jackson Pollock uggs seem bang on trend, the fall in House of Fraser earlier feels like it could have popped my back in rather than out, the drive round the car parks gave my car good turn over!  I smile, I relax, I take the pie from the oven in an excited frenzy and..  it drops from my hands and lands upside down SPLATTERED all over the clean kitchen floor!

I hate full moons.  RANT OVER!

Grammy Awards 2010

I adore red carpet events! There are always fashion mistakes.. fashion fabulous moments and those blah dresses that say nothing!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE Lady Gaga's crazy fashion moments, the Armarni Privi dress was otherworldly and so impractical but exquisite and the second outfit was just so cheeky!!!! This lady will go down in Fashion History and I can't wait to see what she pulls out of the hat next!


Rihanna also kept to her edgy fashion look embracing her trade mark shoulders but this time it seemed much more feminine and delicate with the frothy feathers on her Ellie Saab gown! Full marks from me as it mixed glamour, femininity and edgy in one look!






I also have to mention how gorgeous Nicole Kidman looked... thank god she has ditched the pale frilly numbers we have been seeing her in of late. She looked every inch the superstar in the Prada gown.


Jennifer Hudson also looked fab in a Victoria Beckham gown, it hugs her curves in all the right places!! I want me this dress...


Fashion Blah moment...

Keri Hilson wore the fab Dolce and Gabbana mermaid dress but having seen the same dress on Gary Barlows wife Dawn in the OK photos of there marriage renewal, it seemed a bit.. well.. Blah.




I also felt very underwhelmed by Fergie's cobalt Blue Emilio Pucci dress... sexy it was exciting it was not!


Then we have the what were you thinking's... Guess who, yes Britney! Why is she so capable of turning a fab outfit into something slightly trashy? and why does her stylist let her? This Dolce and Gabbana outfit is not for the faint hearted it being sheer and all, but Britney wearing it makes it seem cheep! They need to glam her up in a much more subtle way! That way people might stop thinking she is crazy.. but as it stands I am still not convinced!
