The Man Repeller

I have just discovered the magnificent blog that is The Man Repeller.  This fantastic blog has put into words exactly how I (and my boyfriend) feel! Some fashion just down right scares men away! And not crazy fashion, simple things like clogs, harem pants, turbans and feathers! When I read my favourite fashion blogs my boyfriend will often point out how ridiculous, weird or just down right mingin' some (usually most) of the outfits are, yet I think they look lovely and want to emulate the girls/outfits/both! I have several outfits I deem inappropriate for wearing with the boyfriend as he'll just take the piss all night/day. I too man repel with out even knowing it, maybe even thinking I'm man attracting when really I'm most definitely not (blue satin-y overalls from Zara anyone?)! I love this blog as it's put a name to me and many of my clothes! And it also brings up the question, do we knowingly change our style when we're dressing to hang out with the girls as opposed to the lads?  I know I do!

Haha, my boyfriend just came and sat down next to me and when I explained about The Man Repeller he said 'ah so just like all the clothes you wear then?' I rest my case.

Right I'm off to help my boyfriend get his contacts out (spent most of the evening trying to get them in as it's his first time...the things we do for the ones we love hey?). Have a good Monday night / Tuesday morning.

 
Now these pants I personally love, my boyfriend is currently telling my just how hideous they are. Hehe!

Who Needs Sleep?

Due to messed up sleeping patterns (heat, late nights/early mornings, no work and no man) I'm awake at strange hours. Am currently cleaning my boyfriends apartment inside and out, then moving round to mine to do the same! Although have some teaching to do tomorrow so I should probably get to bed before I have to go in to work, haha! Anyway, due to being up late and needing a break between mad cleaning sprees I've discovered 2 new blogs (new to me that is) and I now have blog crushes! They are Christeric and Where Did U Get That.

Here's some gorgeous pics of the gorgeous girlies!

Both girls find amazing vintage pieces and are awesome at DIY projects. If I had time and more knowledge of where to get stuff like that in Japan I'd be just like them (hahaha, slightly creepy phrase there but you know what I mean, right? ;p)
OK, think I'm gonna clean the stove now...then bed...although the grill looks greasy, as do the worktops...oh dear...
