Fascinating approach to style

HAPPY NEW YEAR FROM THE CLOTHESHORSE.....

Just wanted to wish you all a happy new year.... I know I've not been posting like I used to but I've been down in a dark place since my mother passed away and it was not a simple death but I don't want to go into that at the moment but I'm going to be back posting shows and giving my opinions which is truthful but some say shady  ..... I'm a original blogger and that's what they wanted but now they want us to lie which I won't do but I will explain more over the next few days but if you've been really following you will know what I mean 

For now happy New Years I wish love and  light and also hope 

Hope because tomorrow is not promised to anyone of us 

I wish you peace, love and prosperity not just for the coming year but for the new decade

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL... 🎄 🎄

It's my 11th year and I'm still here through all the turmoil and other stuff I'm still here and going strong 

It's strange nearly every week at least once I get to hear what people are saying and doing when it comes to me......

I was one of the original bloggers and I'm still sort of doing ok but some of my peers are doing ok and some are doing very well 

Don't know why but I have an idea and on that note 

I would like to wish you all a very merry and special Christmas 

See you on the other side.... I'll be here I'm going nowhere

GET THE LOOK - VALENTINO ......

Going back to my previous post about Dior and buying wise and items that will be with you for season after season...... this method of shopping has not failed me and even right now pieces from Gucci and Dior which are still relevant and the brands are actually releasing them again and for a lot more money than I paid for them .... I've taken a lot of pieces out of hiding and had them tailored and a few ok a lot do not fit me anymore as I was a 28 to 30 waist but now I'm a 31 to 32 waist so I've opened a Depop shop and if I'm honest I've mainly posted accessories like Dior saddle bags etc but I don't have the time to be really on it ....

Now this Valentino piece will be relevant in years to come because the way fashion is they will definitely archive it and reproduce it again in 10 to 20 years 

Jump on it!!!  If I'm honest the only thing I'm doing wrong is buying all black but I think otherwise....  this top can be dressed up and dressed down and is a must have piece even when I went to buy this it was hard and I actually didn't go into the store to buy this piece but realised when I was there this was the one to have 

Clothing has got so expensive and guys you have to shop wise

TODAY'S SHOES ARE FROM CHRISTIAN LOUBOUTIN

There are so many shoes from Christian Louboutin I have..... and there are so many shoes from Christian Louboutin I still want (greedy) ... I remember a few years ago I was invited to the Christian Louboutin book signing and the man himself had these shoes on and at the time I could not even afford to buy the book or even a coca cola ...... things have changed a bit and I am keeping to my word which was having a pair of red soles to wear everyday non stop for a month in a row and I'm there but not there but nearly there ..... and when I saw the man himself wearing these I promised myself I would one day own a pair of these ...... they are the Tasselissimo veau Velours .... at that time they were not on sale they were his shoes and now they are available and they are on my ever growing lust list


Check them out HERE


I've put the soles of the shoes first .... because you have to own a pair to know how to treat a pair ..... They need love and need to be looked after .... with a pair of these coveted red soles .... you dress from the shoes upwards and always check the weather report .....

TODAY'S SONG IS .....

Entertain me and lap it up ..... enjoy!

The winner is - The Big Night Sainsbury's Ad Christmas 2018

For me and I know alot will disagree ..... but for me Sainsbury's wins the Christmas TV ad campaign for 2018 .... it's fun it celebrates the festive season and it's not in your face!!! I dislike in your

face ........














I don't do alot of Christmas Campaigns ..... ok not alot .... ok this was really the first one I did with substance ....  It was for TK Maxx two years ago .... It was hard to find on Youtube but I found this piece which is basically all me ... It was on the Daily Mail website which went worldwide but I can't find it now (unhappy face)

Did you get the memo???????

Did you get the memo???????

She's an understated fashion icon and superstar, I'm understated "supermodel and Top model judge, she's a baroness who I first met in the 90s ..... we all got the memo 

Shop the look at Gucci.com 

NEVER POSTED BEFORE ........

I have never posted this but its on my blog ...... it's me closing a fashion show in Chicago during the fashion week there ...... It's on my blog on the sidebars but I have never really pushed it out there ........ as a model from the 90s I'm still signed, doing campaigns etc but being taken down by the new breed who obviously see me as a threat ..... that's how I see it! as long as I'm still breathing and can walk, smile and pose bring it on!!!!
