I’m beyond skint and REALLY need the new iPhone 4 when it comes out on Thursday. My old iPhone is caput to be honest! SO buy all my lovely new, used and vintage items from my eBay. Seriously, every little helps! All items start at 99p, so grab a bargain and help me out in the process! BOOM!

Watch It Mate.
I’ve been looking for a new watch; something a bit more unique than my run-of-the-mill gold Casio (which incidently, every man and his dog now wears!)
Just seen this canny unique looking, fully functioning Topshop Vintage watch bangle. A new bangle and a new watch, all in one. Pretty thrifty.

Long Live McQueen.
Alexander (The Great) McQueen CBE
16 March 1969 – 11 February 2010.
I am actually devastated by the news that Alexander (LEE) McQueen passed away today, aged just 40. It’s an absolute shock.
His death was announced this afternoon, 11 February 2010. McQueen was found dead at his London home and paramedics pronounced him dead at the scene. A statement released by his office on 11 February 2010 – referring to the designer by his given first name, Lee, read: “On behalf of Lee McQueen’s family, Alexander McQueen today announces the tragic news that Lee McQueen, the founder and designer of the Alexander McQueen brand, has been found dead at his home.”
McQueen’s death comes days before London Fashion Week, although McQueen was not scheduled to show in the British capital.
On 3 February 2010, he wrote on his Twitter page that his mother had died the day before, adding: “RIP mumxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.” Four days later he wrote that he had had an “awful week” but said “friends have been great“, adding: “now i have to some how pull myself together“.
Fashion has lost a legend today and the fashion world will be a less pretty world for it.
Long live McQueen.
To follow on my superstitious education…
Unfortunately, my Touch Wood necklace by Vivienne Westwood is sitting in my purse, instead of around my neck. I’ve been much too superstitious whilst wearing it. I’ve actually worn the wood and the link out so much that it fell of the chain 😦
So to carry my superstitiousness on, I’ve finally found the perfect horse shoe necklace 😀 I just hope it doesn’t turn upside down!
BOOM!
