Where have all the wild boys gone?

I love Liz Hurley. In fact, she is the only person on earth who I can tolerate wearing white ‘regular rise’ jeans. But must she do this to her men?

Is it me, or are her and Shame Warne beginning to look the same?

Now, I know I used to love nothing better than taking the piss out of him at Newlands, but I have to admit I’d rather he looked like the good ol’ Lizard of Oz than this creepy permatanned Cliff Richard wannabe...Please Liz, pretty (boy) please!

Long time, no see

It's been a while, I know. Since I spoke to you last, I've failed a Classics exam, aced an archaeology one, and launched a new lifestyle website: www.beautopia.co.za

The process of building a website is not an easy one - I have discovered that I really don't like Wordpress, and that many people are not online inclined.

But I will get there, and when I do, I will happily show all those who said I couldn't 2 very manicured fingers!

Whinging over, I have some exciting news for coffee lovers out there.
The Neighbourgoods market will host the I Love Coffee festival on 30 July.
You'll find all the deets at ilovecoffee.co.za

The importance of being Bieber?

Apparently it’s not just me who thinks he sounds like a 12 year old girl, and in fact, I know 12 year old girls with deeper voices.

Below is a ‘funny coz it’s true’ piece from www.fashionista.com – hysterical!!

Despite his ability to attract a crowd of a zillion screeching tweens, to sell perfumed dog tags and nail polish, and to generally wreak havoc wherever he goes, there’s something the Biebs can’t do: sell magazines.

WWD reports this morning that his February 2011 Vanity Fair cover was the worst-selling issue for the glossy in 12 years. Selling just 246,000 copies, which is almost 100,000 copies less than Vanity Fair‘s average, the issue was a massive flop for the magazine. While this is perhaps not surprising (because what 11-year-old seeks out Vanity Fair?), the superstar’s mug can’t sell more age-appropriate magazines either.

Apparently even Teen Vogue‘s readers aren’t into the Biebs. Bieber’s’ October 2010 Teen Vogue cover was also a dud, WWD reports, selling just 121,054 issues, which is 12% less than its average sales that year.

Even the tabs are having a problem. People‘s April 2010, which featured Bieber on the cover, sold 25% less than its average sales. Rolling Stone and US Weekly also recently featured the crooner, but those stats aren’t available yet. We’re thinking that editors may start avoiding Bieber–at least for covers–like the plague.

East meets West for LV

East meets West in an 'oh so stylish' way for Louis Vuitton this season.
I just adore the fan - not sure you could justify R36 500, but I really love it!
