BOB

stands for Back Off Bra! (which is actually the name for this new backless bra)


When I first saw this bra on TV - I thought it was a load of crap, until I heard it was designed by the same person who designed the U Bra! I would seriously marry my U Bra if I could, so I knew that the Back Off Bra would be amazing.

Vist the website to find out more www.backoffbra.com

I'm going out this weekend to get one, I will let you know if BOB and The Girls get along!

RETAIL SHOPPING PEEVES

Online shopping is becoming more and more appealing with each trip I make to a shopping center.

After 5 hours of shopping over the weekend, which included 2 shopping centers (both around 30 minuets apart, browsing in over 20 stores, trying on approximately 10 items and purchasing only 2... I can confidently say, I hate shopping in stores!!!

This is my list of pet peeves when it comes to shopping

1. CHANGE ROOMS, especially the ones without doors. Curtains just don't cut it... I don't want to try on jeans when there is a gap of around 5cm each side of the curtain meeting the wall. I don't want to be flashing my booty to shoppers anymore than they want to be looking at it! I also hate change rooms that are painfully small, or have no hooks to hang the clothing.

2. ANNOYING SHOP ASSISTANTS. I know they have a job to do... I work in a sales based job - so I know about targets and all that jazz, but seriously, some of these girls need to take a Valium. One chain store in particular is notorious for having the girl at the checkout trying to 'up sell' at least 3 times before even starting the transaction. Or the shop assistant who will follow you around and within half a second of me putting something back on the shelf or rack, she will readjust it. Or the one who pops her head in the change room 5 times to ask how everything is going... the list is endless

3. CRAMPED STORES, whether its the actual racks that have so much on them that you can not pull out one coat hanger without 20 falling off, or those stores that have the racks so close together that you can not walk through in single file, let alone when someone else is standing in your way. Fashion store designers should know that most ladies have handbags the size of a small child, not to mention the fact that we are probably carrying another 2 or 3 shopping bags as well. If I cannot even fit through, how are all my bags going to?

4. DISCOUNTS. Sure, I love discounts... but I want the tag to clearly say the final price. I don't want to have to try and work out what 30% off is.

5. OTHER SHOPPERS. Maybe I'm just really anti-social, but please do not ask me if I think something looks good on you. And don't wait for me to come out of the change room, to ask me if you can try on that skirt that I'm still holding in my hands. And do not judge when you see me pick up something that you may think is hideous.

So with that, here are a few of my favourite online stores that I have personally purchased things from;


ASOS

BLONDETTE

PINK MASCARA

SHOP ROBERTSON

SHOPBOP

EZIBUY

THISNEXT INTERVIEW

It's no secret that I am crazy about This Next. To be honest, I probably spend way too much time 'shopcasting'

I recently did an interview with one of the very cool This Next staffers. You can read it here.

DEAR...

Dear Kate,
Not only did you get to have pretend sex with Ben Afflect AND Josh Harnett, but you are also amazingly gorgeous. Sigh


Dear Kristen,
Once you make all of the books into movies, will you please just fuck off!!!



Dear Lily,
Oh dear! I know I should like you better before you went of coke head skinny - but you do look good these days. However, I do think you should lay off the rack!




Dear Paris,
I would love for nothing more, than to punch you in the face!




Dear Rachel.
You look incredible! I want to cut off your skin and wear it!




Dear Kim,
I know it probably took you 17 hours to look like this - but seriously I think you super hot



Dear Mischa,
Love the new dark locks. Much better than your skanky old rehab hair



Dear Miranda,
Aussie girls (in particular you...) are known for amazing curves. Time for a Big Mac perhaps?




Dear Mariah,
You dead set look like a tranny!!!


Dear Hil,
I've said it once before, and I'll say it again. You have the most Ah-maz-ing chin!



Dear Drew,
Hate the hair. La La Love the dress! x

Go and do something useful, and stop wasting time looking through www.theskinnywebsite.com

DATE DRINK

Question: What is the perfect drink to order on a first date???

EZIBUY

Any Aussie girl would've heard of EziBuy.

To be honest - up until 12 months ago, I thought the only people who shopped at EziBuy where ladies over the age of 40! That is until I was flicking through a catalog in the lunch room one day, dog tagging all the pages I liked! There ended up being more pages marked then those unmarked!

Here are a few of my favourties from the Spring 09 collection (including a few which I recently snapped up!)

HAIR TREND

Anyone who has seen my facebook photos from the last few months, would know how much I've been rocking braids (probably a little too much!)

I started with the side part 'fringe' braid, and then my friend managed to do a full 'headband' braid (the pictures with the blonde hair - current hair colour).




I love that I can dance the night away and not have to worry about fixing my hair (things would have to get pretty crazy to mess up a braid)
