This Month’s Fashion Events: in the North.

April 8, 2013

And many more!

Fashion events in the North, as you know if you’re unfortunate enough to live here too, are usually so few and far between that they sneak up like a good buy in a Topshop sale. They’re also inexplicably difficult to discover, unless you’re in the Fashion/PR/Marketing industry, generally due to a lack of coverage and a lack of an obvious ‘HELLO WE POST NORTHERN FASHION EVENTS’ Twitter page. This narks me off, no end, as I always seem to miss out on stuff and end up finding it popping up all over the Twittersphere weeks later so, before we all start emigrating to London – I’ve done a little research and here’s a compilation of events (generally in the Manchester area) that I’ve spotted coming up this month:

New Look/Grazia Denim Styling Event – Manchester Arndale.

September 12, 2012

Yesterday I braved the rain and hopped a few trains to Manchester to check out the New Look/Grazia Denim Styling event in the Arndale – with the hope of having a couple of minutes to speak to the Grazia Fashion Editor Sophie Ferguson Jones – which I did! There was a little talk from Sophie, where she gave some hints and tips regarding the new trends for Autumn/Winter 2012 and what we should be wearing these next coming months.

Accessing any interesting websites on the Internet whilst at work is risky business. A bit like stealing the last chocolate from the box, or having sex in a public place – except the gratification is nowhere near matched, unfortunately. Recently, I’ve been doing the odd few days a week where my boyfriend’s mum works; gathering a bit of cash during my holidays from university. This aspect is brilliant but, alas, the work I’m ‘set’ isn’t exactly enthralling or all that time-consuming, meaning that I have a ridiculous amount of spare time to kill during the day…

Here’s a list of websites to keep you going during your ‘working’ day:

www.reddit.com/r/askreddit – plethora of random questions, more often than not, hilarious
www.reddit.com/r/sex – similar to the first, gives insight into how hopeless guys are and how secretly horny us ladies are
www.reddit.com/r/twoxchromosones – page where women talk about women things
www.reddit.com/r/indiefolk – if you’re lucky enough to be able to listen to music at work
www.look.co.uk – website that corresponds to the UK magazine (my favourite magazine)
www.cosmopolitan.com or uk – I prefer .com, strangely
www.wordpress.com – perfect time to write away

What websites do you frequent when you’re bored?

Cosmopolitan’s 31 Days of Hot Sex.

January 10, 2012

Check this out.

Let’s get a little background here. I like sex, like everyone should, but I love adventurous sex. Be it in a public place, in the back of my boyfriend’s car or something a little strange – I’ll try anything once. So, finding this article was a bit of a goldmine. I’m thinking of doing each day’s ‘tip’ and posting a brief rating system for each one – I don’t want to be too descriptive, haha.

Watch this space…
