The brows are not what they seem...

I'm 14 episodes into a serious Twin Peaks addiction. Despite the resultant nightmares (it's the most terrifying TV I've ever seen), I can't enough. Especially when it comes to the fantastic Audrey Horne, and in particular, her majestic eyebrows.


Sherilyn Fenn is a fox - I love Audrey's iconic brogues/pout/cigarette combo. But back to the brows. I'm beginning to think David Lynch has a brow fetish - check out the tweezer-work of his three leading ladies.

We had a time...



The greatest tv program ever made. I know I'm not the first to say it, or see it as fashion inspiration, but I can say with hand on heart that since I watched this with my sister more than a decade ago, I knew that was how I wanted to dress.
I made my Mum buy me some cork-heeled logger boots from the market, a lumberjack shirt from C&A, and counted the days until I was 16 and allowed to die my hair red. Oh how I loved Angela...
Then, around 2005 I noticed Mary-Kate Olsen start to wear clothes I'd only ever seen before on Rayanne Graff - the checked shirt, the maxis, the clothes that would become ubiquitous four years later.
From autumn to winter 2009 I scoured ebay for a pair of those loggers. I tried to pluck up the courage to ask the awesome girl at my train station how the hell she tracked hers down, and I failed on both counts.
And now, as the high street starts to stock it's autumn lines (how already? It's not even August!) I'm starting to think once more about the boots that will complete my life. This year you will be mine!

Teen TV has never been as good as this, so I can't wait to see creator Winnie Holtzman's new show Huge. The fat-camp-based pilot was picked up, and if the series is as honest, accurate and well-acted as MSCL, I know I'll be totally hooked!

Give me those bright lights, all night...

 Reasons I love The City:
  • Whitney's style (although perhaps not in the pic above)
  • Olivia's glossy, glossy hair
  • Erin's "bitch please" facial expressions
  • Kelly Cutrone's no nonsense ways. The woman's amazing.
Watched the first episode of season two last night and found it genuinely moving when Kell shed a small tear... I need to get a life.

When will Kell on Earth come to the UK people?!

PS - Can't believe Whitney blogged about her work-out style just two days after me. That would have made my picture research much easier! I'd love to think she read my blog and copied me. Dream on.
