If anybody is interested I have started a Pinterest page. I love it now! Slightly addictive... If you like, here is my page. And if you have a page let me know, I would love to follow you all.

This is gonna be a bigg'n... Style @ Set

So I was at Style @ Set over the weekend, all ran of course by the superb Blanaid Hennessy. Second year running and I was not disappointed! Brought my cousins to the Film Friday and it was unanimous that the films were great, The Annie Leibovitz one being everyone's particular favourite. Saturday I hit the stands with my two best friends. The whole thing was way bigger than last year and we had a lot to feast our eyes on!

We tried on dresses, hats and shoes, threatened each other with eye brow threading, stroked the furs, ate delicious food, had plenty of chats, drooled (a lot), watched a very interesting style panel with Brendan Courtney and spent all of our money!

Saturday night was filled with free vodka, making horrendous faces for the camera, getting insulted by artists drawing our delightful faces, busting a move to Salt 'n' Pepa, trying to think of the most awkward things to draw and eating chocolate (I was off it for Lent.)

Blanaid Hennessy you truly out did yourself! Fair play... Roll on year 3!

Whip it...

I finally got to watch Whip It on Sunday. Oh I loved it! Not only does it have Drew Barrymore (my favourite actress) but it also stars young Ellen Page. I love Ellen because she (or her characters) remind me of one of my best friends. The movie is a seriously good watch and now I really wanna be in a roller derby!

What I wanted to talk about are the clothes in this movie. Most people never realise that I love old rock band tees! I seriously do! I don't know whether I have an alter ego or am I that eclectic/insane to like tea dresses and band tees. When I watched the movie I was getting flashbacks of myself in faded jeans and long chain earrings, in cheese-cloth vests, smelly doodled cons and in my DIY "The Who" tee. Could I be a closet "alternative" em... person?

Anyway these band tees are something I love, this whole look is something I love! It can be done in such an understated way that it isn't too in your face. Who ever styled this movie and some great taste in tops! I even loved some of the mens tops, especially the numbered one shown above.

And those roller skates and gym shorts! I want...

Also is it wrong to be such a "playa" when it comes to styles? Should I just pick one? Most people say I'm girly and that head banging doesn't suit me, but what if I enjoy that kind of music (well some of it- thanks to the boyfriend) but also love petticoats? Do I have to choose?

I should find a happy medium.
