Looks I Spotted in London (Take Two- Dots and Denim)



Dublin Street Style- Scanger Me Banger

Scanger me Banger!
Otherwise known as your "Going Out" pyjamas they are an essential part of the ensemble of a lot of Dublin girls. While most people would think these girls are lazy and just get out of bed and walk out the door this is actually incorrect. From asking a classmate of mine when I was in school she told me she had sets of pjs for sleeping in and others for wearing out. What infact happens is that these lassies wake up in a pair of pjs and change into a different pair before heading out the door. I myself would not be able to head out in my jim jams but to each their own. We all say we'd love to wear our jammies all they, it just so happens that some of us do.

What do you think? Would you head into town in your jammies?

The Doctor's girls

As the newest episode of Dr.Who has just begun airing I figured I do a piece on two of my favourite models of the moment who both happen to be connected with current Doctor Matt Smith. I'm a girl and even I'm jealous of him XD


Karen Gillan
You can not think Dr.Who at the moment without the leggy Amy Pond aka Gillan coming to mind. This cute Scottish red head has been professionally acting since she was 16 and even appeared in Dr.Who during Tennant's reign ( see sometimes good things do happen to extras). At 5.11 she was made to be a model and has been seen storming runway after runway these past few years. She's also got a wardrobe that I would love to steal. If I could style anyone it would be her.



Daisy Lowe
In case envying who he gets to co-star alongside wasn't enough here's Daisy Lowe, super model and Matt Smith's girlfriend, yeah ya hate him now don't ya? Famous from birth (her mother is Pearl Lowe singer & designer and her father is Gavin Rossdale musician and husband to Gwen Stefani) Pearl has been modelling since the age of two. 20 years later and she's one of the most sought after models and has appeared multiple times in Italian Vogue. With her huge doughy brown eyes and baby doll face it's easy to see why the Doctor forgot about Rose Tyler.

Trending hair colours this season

Is She Ginger?
That "Is it red?" shade is huge at the moment, there's hardly a fashion magazine or girl in the street you can pass without seeing it. Most likely set off by British Model/Actress of the moment Karen Gillan (above) this fiery shade is trailing a blaze through the fashion industry this Summer 2011.

Dark Side of Sunny
The 70s are back and with it natural hair. One shade that is hitting the runways hard this season is dark blonde. This is a great shade if you're naturally fair and can throw a box of dye or some highlights on as it's minimal up keep. Unlike red which is hard to pull off with most complexions even dark skinned girls like Beyonce and Tyra Banks have gone dark blonde in their time and it looks great with some sun kissed skin (like above). Perfect if you're a beach lover.

Orange You Jealous?

I never thought I would consider orange my friend, I always thought as a teenager it looked awful on me and I'm not entirely sure what convinced me otherwise but here I am singing it's praises. I think it is most definitely the shade of summer '11, if you don't already own a fab orange crop top or summer dress what are you thinking? Run down to the high street before your fashion cred is in ruins! I spent ages the past month looking for an affordable orange crop top that I could throw on over a bikini or vest top and Penneys are a god send. 7euro for the must have of this season, bargain! It's the colour to invest in and it suits all complexions. I once thought it didn't suit my pale ass but I hold my hands up to being wrong. Why are you still here, run, there's shopping to be done!

Or equally you could go to Penneys


Pictured hair band 132 pounds sterling. Now don't hold me to this but I'm pretty sure I saw this in Penneys yesterday for under a fiver. Something as delicate as this will be broken so don't break your heart by buying an expensive one. This is a case were the knock off is a better option.
