pretty pastel jeans

What do you think of the current pastel jeans trend? I think I like them. On other people. Those lucky enough to be blessed with slender thighs... So far, I have tried on a few pairs, and they have looked ridiculous on me. Okay I’ll admit I have been looking in the cheap end of the high street, mainly because, if I buy a pair or two, I won’t be wearing them for long. Not once the warm Spring weather is here, and they’ll be a new style next year.

The last time I owned jeans in a spectrum of colours was in the early 90s. In those days they had to be special dye Levi 501s (with the second button left undone, for some weird reason...), with crop tops and tiny t-shirts or mesh bodies. I loved my red pair and white pair the best.

I do love the pastel colours though, but a word of warning, if you are treating yourself to a pair, make sure you get a shade to suit your skin tone.
 


Just Jeans have a good range of colours, as shown below, but everywhere sells them.

It gets flippin worse!

What's with the new mothers of Hollywood? I thought I'd heard it all with the placenta eating, and silent birthing, but on no, it gets worse...Alicia Silverstone is feeding her son a healthy, organic, vegan diet. Very commendable. I'd love to go veggie (vegan's taking it a bit far) but I can't give up bacon... Anyway, I'm getting side tracked. But feeding your ten month old son, wait for it, mouth-to-mouth, like a regurgitating bird - no!!! That's just sicko, ugh, makes me gag just to think about it!

Alicia writes (on her blog), "Just had a delicious breakfast of miso soup, collards and radish steamed and drizzled with flax oil, cast iron mochi with nori wrapped outside, and some grated daikon. Yum!" Okay, so far so good (I'd rather have Special K, but each to their own), then she adds... "I fed Bear the mochi and a tiny bit of veggies from the soup… from my mouth to his. 'It’s his favourite...and mine." 

Sorry but this is SO WRONG! And as for posting a video of you both 'enjoying' this bizarre breakfast - gross! And you look so chuffed with yourself! 

Please someone tell me this an early April Fools Day joke...!

too long trouser trend...hot or not?

Umm... I'm not convinced about the current trend (lead by Vic Beckham) of wearing your trousers/jeans too long, so they reach the floor... Not even a hint of heel or what sexy shoe hides beneath. It makes you look like you have hooves instead of feet... and it must be annoying getting the fabric caught under your heel when you walk. It might be trendy, but I don't think I'll be donning this look.
