It's 00:54 on Tuesday morning, I've just got home from working my last day for On/Off at London Fashion Week and I'm absolutely zonked. Over the next week the video team at On/Off will be posting the videos of the shows they hosted which I shall post on here, most of them were absolutely fantastic. I worked Pam Hogg's show today and can safely say it was nothing short of a nightmare, not enough shoes for the models and most of them were arrogant as hell. One was so rude to me that I was tempted to either smash the kettle I was holding into his skull or start to cry. Thankfully I did neither and smiled politely instead, after all, it was Nick Cave's son. Absolute :
P.S. I saw Siouxie's fanny today too! Just to brighten the mood...

I want! Buckle shoes from Bona Drag..and £98. Ah, may have to start my 21st wish list pretty soon.
Every Thursday at Punk on Soho Street, my lovely friend Scott (or Mariella Whippy if you prefer his alter ego) hosts a club night called Your Mums House. Last week he asked me to warm the place up with some cheeky beats so my friend Lauren and I did just that for the dear fee of six beers. By 11pm the place was absolutely rammed, it's well worth going to central to check it out.

Alexander McQueen SS10 & The Armadillo... Can you spot the difference?
'I entered Hypatia one morning, a mangolia garden was reflected in blue lagoons, I walked among the hedges, sure I would discover beautiful ladies bathing; but at the bottom of the water, crabs were biting the eyes of the suicides, stones tied around their necks, their hair green with seaweed.' - Invisible Cities, pg 40
