At the moment I am
looking like a Riot Grrrl
reading Baldassare Castiglione's Book Of The Courtier
absolutely LOVIN my new flat!!
listening to The Goodfellas Movie soundtrack
drinking coffee from a cafetiere because no Starbucks local
watching Incredible Hulk!!!
smelling of Comme Des Garcons 2
eating tuna and avocado
dreaming of a particular special boy who won't return my advances...!??!
wearing floral dresses
walking in Jordans and Doc Martens
singing fun gay happy songs
trying to find a cleaner for my house
wanting to keep my lose my dirty Florence tan

MORE 90S RUDEGIRL VIDEOS
These outfits are insane... I need to get my army gear out...and practice that dance routine! This video is pretty much exactly how I used to dress when I was 12 or so. Hmmmm, and if I think about it, its pretty much how I dress now!! Hahahaa! I cant embed the Jermaine Dupree remix, unfortunately....
This was Monica's amazing debut. About the same time as Brandy's debut (see below). I fancied the boys in both the videos. i used to dream that I would move to America and wear a silly hat like Tia and Tamera and find some fine American boy.
I remember my big cousin Racheal (who I looked up to when I was a kid for music and style) brought this record home from HMV along with Total - Can't You See. It was soooo good!!! Then the video came on Yo MTV Raps and we were just in RnB heaven!! I love that stupid dance Brandy does with her hands on the swing...
Remix with Latifah, Lyte and Yoyo
I love these leather outfits in this classic SWV video!!!
OH MY GOOOOODD THIS BOY IS SOOO FIT IT MAKES ME WANNA THROW UP!! I had a crush on him back then and I still am creaming myself about him now!!!

SHOPPING
I like my job. i can take 5 hours lunches and stroll around Soho in the sun. had to go to the Vintage Mag store to find some pictures of Johnny Depp. Ended up buying more magazines for myself, including a PLAYBOY SPRING BREAK SPECIAL!!!! Its soooo dope.
VINTAGE MAG STORE ON BREWER ST. One of my favourite stores ever.
THEN TO HAMLEYS - GIRLS FLOOR
I love Hamleys, its so cool. everyone is happy and smiling and its like entering a parallel world. You can always find crazy stuff in there too, like the random Pharoah Pen. I wanted one so bad but my card got frauded in Ireland so i dont have a bank card and i only had enough money for the badge making machine I needed. So annoying. Now I have to queue everyday to get money out. Cuntbags. Anyway, Hamleys on Regent St - Check it out.

TWO THINGS I REALISED THIS AFTERNOON
1 - The Shangri-La's are the best girl band ever.
2 - The way to be a perfect wife.
WIVES AND LOVERS
Hey! Little Girl
Comb your hair, fix your makeup
Soon he will open the door
Don't think because there's a ring on your finger
You needn't try anymore
For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
I'm warning you...
Day after day
There are girls at the office
And men will always be men
Don't send him off with your hair still in curlers
You may not see him again
For wives should always be lovers too
Run to his arms the moment he comes home to you
He's almost here...
Hey! Little girl
Better wear something pretty
Something you'd wear to go to the city and
Dim all the lights, pour the wine, start the music
Time to get ready for love
Time to get ready
Time to get ready for love

TEEN WITCH
Yesterday me, Charly, Flo and a few others were hanging out in London Fields (AKA Fashion Hills E84DT) when the conversation turned to TEEN WITCH!!! Now if anyone hasn't seen this 80s gem, go buy it NOW!
Heres the trailer...
Its a classic story of geeky girl wanting to be popular so she meets this psychic who tells her she was born with witch powers and she should use them to become cooler. She leaves her old geeky mates behind, gets TOO popular and it all goes a bit tits up...Its also a musical with some AMAZINGGGGGG tunes...
Then this morning I was checking my new favourite blog VOODOO VILLAGE (Like literally this is the best blog I've seen ever) and Pete mentions another brilliant blog TROPICAL TITS by a girl called Polly (one of the best names ever) and lo and behold Polly has posted one of the most memorable scenes from Teen Witch. I'm not a big Youtube user to be honest, but I've spent the last hour watching Teen Witch clips with goosebumps, its so fucking goood!!!!! I've shared it round the Homme + office and even they (without all my nostalgic memories of it) love it!!!
For some reason, even though we grew up with no money, we had cable since I was about 5 years old. My Mom used to make me and my brother film tapes recorded from Sky Movie channels and she was cool enough to put similar films on the same tape. We had one tape of Teen Witch and Uncle Buck which we watched over and over until the tape fucked up. Those were the days...
Anyway, Check out one of my fave teen 80s flicks ever!!!!
I've said "most", "fave", "amazing" and "ever" like a millions times in this post. thats the extent of my excitement!
