Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

Dude, I really want to be cool enough to work a breton stripe, cropped orange trousers and leopard print sandals. Could someone just make that happen for me? Wicked!

A Leopard Can't Change Its Spots

(Via Oasis)

Do you ever think that you have seen the perfect item only to finally come to the realisation, after trawling the shops and internet, that you have probably invented it and it exists in no other place than the recesses of your mind?



But then, even worse, you realise that it does exist, this dream item, the thing that will go with everything, for every occassion, will complete you, will bring you the purest form of joy, but it is Louis Vuitton and so will never, ever be yours. I'm on a part time wage for God's sake! WHYYYYYYYY?!?

Hmmm, great start to the weekend. Gah!

The Cat's Pajamas

I am beyond excited. River Island (AKA the birthplace of 98% of my clothes) has just changed its website and now you can save pictures. Yeah!

Typically there isn't much there that I want to post about. Hey ho! So instead I decided to do some shopping for you and your approaching holiday.




Right?!



You are drooling aren't you?

OK, I agree, this is grim. But I couldn't resist posting just for pure freak value.

So all in all, I am very happy that I can now post pics from my favourite shop and your holiday wardrobe is in the bag. You are quite welcome...!

The Cat's Pajamas

It has to be said that it is a rare thing indeed to be inspired to write a CONC post while residing in the kitchen at work (I work in an investment bank, it's just a lot of ill fitting suits secured over expanding waists and yawnsomely boring ties). And while I am conscious that I am falling into a markerters trap, I found, while rummaging around in the drinks fridge, the Diet Coke/Asos pink leopard print cans and they are awesome!

Having always been a drink very definitely catering to a female audience I have never felt spoken to by their advertising.



Right?!



And the Duffy adverts were possibly the most revolting thing I have ever, ever seen.

But a little bit of pink leopard print...? And I'm in!

Not that I will drink the stuff, though, coz it still tastes like arse.

Just One Coat

How ruuuuude of me!  I didn't respond to your leopard coat post.  I did mentally.  As I read it I was like, 'Aha, yeah I reckon it's a go-er.  Ooh yes, that one is nice akshully' etc etc but I saw this picture and I realised that I hadn't passed that thought process on via the gift of the C.O.N.C.  So yes!  I think you would look great in one!  Do it!

I love a leopard coat.  I try them on all the time but they don't look right.  I think it's because of my hair and the full-eye-at-all-times approach I take to life.  You see, you posted Ashley looking lovely in that coat and now MK has nabbed it, (which Ashley looks a bit pised about if I'm not wrong?) and she's not working it quite so well is she?  I think it's because she also appears to have borrowed one of Shaun Ryder's hats for the occasion.

Hey ho, either way it just goes to prove that they work for some and not for others.  Even if you are like, almost the same person.  Hmmm.  I'm going to move on, but yeah get one, cute!

One more thing: I very much like Ashely's jewelled slippers.  Sinderella eat your heart out.

NO! You're still waiting for that? That's just too much! Yowza.

Yes! Get that bad boy out again. I love that dress! And yes to the boot, how I love that boot. Bravo bravo, j'adore!

Now I know what you mean about the boyfriend. Here is Billie Piper wearing a successful one and looking marvelous. (Talking of Billie, have you seen that Belle du Jour reveeeealed herself this week? The papers are full of it! Does anyone even care? Larks! Leave it people. Katie Price is back in the jungle, THAT'S where our attention needs to be focused! I don't have time for ex high end call girl authors right now. I'm busy trying to work out of it's the cheek fillers, the lips or the eyebrows that are the problem.)

All too often a boyfriend can go wrong though. I mean....such is life, you know? I am a fan of pincering at the back to nip in a bit, but as you HAVE an actual waist I'm not sure that you would really need to do that. I think keep looking. But if you don't find anything will it matter? I know that you'll be lovely and warm from doing the running man on the dance floor after your first sniff of shandy...no?

* I love this bag. It makes me feel sick akshully. I'm sure my life would be better, my hair more bouncy and full of volume and my skin more dewy if I were able to run around town with this slung over my shoulder. It's a 'price on application' Cavalli. Sob!

Doesn't Ashley look the very most in her coat?

Do you think I could carry off a leopard print coat? If I accessorised it with lots of black cat's eye liner, leather gloves and a touch of class?

I'll Tip My Hat

(Image via Asos)

I saw a fabulously glamourous lady yesterday. She was wearing a hat of this description, you know, a molded sort of beret. But it was leopard print. It was the coolest thing I have ever seen. She was wearing it with a cocoon camel coat. Honestly, I nearly fell into a swoon.

I wanted to ask her where she got it. But I chickened out. Now I wish I had because I fear I might never find true and lasting happiness until that hat is mine.

I don't suppose you have seen any lying about, have you?
