Mean Girls.

Who says girls can't fight? If they happen to have this McQueen knuckle-duster clutch, i sure wouldn't take any chances...





With leather lining, Swarovski crystals and pearls, this little shiner will punch your bank balance back by $1895.

Now, thats meeeeean.

"And I'll huff, and i'll puff..."

I just spotted this 'She-wolf' ring from the independant Australian label, None The Richer and fell sooooooooo in love with instantly!
it's just so ridiculously cute!



It features enamel painting as well as gold, white and amber rhinestones.
It's the perfect antidote to all the boringly ordinary rings out there, don'tcha think?
Who else is fed up and completely bored by predictable rings without a hint of character?!
Hands up, please!
I'd wear this wicked wolf ring anyday. In fact, i'd wear it everyday!

You can pick up this baby for $75 over on FredFlare.com
Unfortunately, the don't ship internationally which leaves me a bit miffed, but makes my poor student bank balance, very, very happy indeed.

Wise words.

Found this whilst scouring the internet for nothing in particular.
I quite like it.
I hope you do too.

Wanna be startin' somethin'.

So, the recent untimely death of the King of Pop has inevitabely led to a maaaaassive increase in the sales of his records and seen a surge in MJ memorabilia: Micheal Jackson dolls, mugs, commemorative plates, air fresheners?! Yep, it's the whole 'Princess Diana' shebang.

The prime of Jackomania, almost 3 decades ago made him a total fashion icon.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we all know the iconic white crystal glove, the diamante-studded shoes, the famous fedora, the too-tight gold trousers, all the staples of MJ's wardrobe and what every hip kid was wearing in the 80's.
But now the MJ look is back with a vengeance and looking fiercer than ever.

This 'MJ chic' look has me completely transfixed at the moment.

I want that shirt.
I need those jackets.
I will kill for those gloves.



It's official, Michael Jackson has never been cooler.

Girls CAN play ball.

Time for another rhetorical question:
How completely super-duper amazing is this Barbie table football game?!




It was designed by Chloe Ruchon, and there's only 9 of them in the whole wide world! I want one so bad! I'm just not sure i can fork out 10,000 euros for it. I may have to stage a bank heist. I'll keep you posted.

Hey, wouldn't it be just hil-ar-i-ous if the Barbies could hit the ball with their boobs?
I can already sense a future of broken fingernails and pulled hair in the Barbie league.

As if the hot pink table and the dolls didn't do a good enough job of telling the boys to clear off and let the girls get down to business, then the rhinestones definately will. This table has got plenty of 'em, giving it that extra 'girly' edge. Cos everyone knows that us girls love a bit of bling.

Check out this one-of-a-kind game on display at Colette, in Paris. Im sure it looks ever more amazing (and sparkly) up close.

Dance, dance, dance to the songs on the radio.

How HOT are the Plastiscines?
Wait, i'll answer that myself. They're pretty much a pheonix set on fire and sent to live on the mass of blazing hot deadly gas that we like to call the Sun. Metaphorically speaking, of course.

The Plastiscines, for anyone who for some insane reason most probably related to them living under a BOULDER, has not heard of them, are an amazingly hip French all-girl 4-piece indie rock band, inspired by The Libertines and The Strokes (yet another reason to love them, not that you needed any more!)

They released their first album, 'LP1' (with all but one of the songs performed in French) in 2007 and it was an instant hit with the fashion-loving indie kids, who probably couldn't understand a word of it.

Their second album, 'About Love' is out now, on Nylon records and features the hit song, 'Barcelona' which is performed in English for all you folks out there who aren't too hot on a bit of the ol' Francais. And it's a teriffic album, if i must say so myself. It makes you wanna dance around the garden barefeet in the sun, and any album that puts you in the mood for barefeet dancing is all right by my standards.

Oh, and another reason to love the Plastiscines?
Their killer fashion sense!

These girls deffo know how to rock it!

Clever tricks.

So, the Neurotica collection is arriving at Topshop this month and i am amongst the posse of eager fashionistas sharpening their claws and practising elbow-shoves in preparation for the launch. The collection will be available throughout the country, and even in the lonesome US branch of Topshop, in New York City.
The London-based label is all about creepy but cute illustrations and prints and their Topshop collection is no exception. Featuring bodysuits, shift dresses and my personal favourite pick - the boyfriend jumper with the sooooper cute print of a girl holding balloons.
Seeing how the 'Horror girl' collection was a recent hit for everyones favourite High-Street store, it looks like scary-but-sweet Halloween chic is totally in, and I, for one, am loving it!
