The "thigh high boots" trend

Thigh high boots are my new thing these days. They seem to be making a come back and with all this crappy weather i am honestly relieved! I found these boots as well as the little Topshop mini skirt in a charity shop in Kentish Town where i used to volunteer when i was in my teens. These boots combine two of my great loves - Tanned leather and keeping my feet dry and warm in the rain - and for £18.99 i really couldn't resist. They're real leather and all!

I guess leather t-shirts is another one of my obsessions this season, i seem to have started to grow a quite a collection. This one has lazer cut outs and mesh inserts and an exposed silver zip at he back. I bought it from a little indie store on Albert road in Pompey and i happened to wander in during their 25% off RRP sale! SCORE! So i bagged myself a steal for £9.

Guinness goes out in style - Sapologie is blowing up!

So i'm BEAMING with patriotic pride after i saw this advert for Guinness today!

This is the last television ad campaign that Guinness will ever do and in my opinion they couldn't have chosen a better set or cast. The advert features a group of Congolese men slogging away at their respectively difficult and laborious day jobs then, at the end of the work day they all head home and transform into the slickest-O.G-looking-mother-f****rs i've ever seen. La Sapologie is something i've grown up with and it's more than just a fashion movement in Bacongo. It is a sub-culture that has been around for years and is almost regarded as a tradition for some.

"Through their attitude and style they demonstrate that no matter the circumstance you can always choose who you are," - Stephen O'Kelly

One of the funnier moments in my life was when i brought my irish boyfriend to my sisters wedding. He looked around at all the guests and said

"Why are there so many bright shiny suits?!"

Next time i'll just show him this video and say it's in our blood!
