THe hunt is on and the prey has been spotted...ok thats rubbish! I am on a mission to find a killer outfit to wear to the Curves of Couture fashion show I have been invited to. This is a huge event with the UK's first plus size only catwalk show organised in conjunction with the British Sciene Council and Models of Diversity. Being a plus side woman I wanted to be a part of it and hey presto was invited as a guest (VIP!). But dilemma...CAN I FIND A DRESS? nope! I want a vintage number that doesnt make me look like a frumpy dumpy. God I'd even wear a new dress as long as it was my style and size...
The hunt continues. suggestions greatly welcome as are donations.
A woman with the fashion sense of a magpie who likes to mix it up but with a hint of rockabilly vintage and her tongue firmly in her cheek. An experienced stylist, model and burlesque performer not to mention a dabbler in DJing and event management. Oh get her! All lardee dah!

Fashion Fix
Every now and then I like to post pictures of myself on my twitter: http://twitter.com/BlahFashion. As some people have asked me where I get my outfits from I thought from time to time I would post some here occasionally.
Having recently tweeted about how I never find playsuits that fit me due to my 2 inches longer than standard torso (Thanks Lynn for measuring) I always end up with camel toe! Not sexy! Or comfortable. So imagine my surprise when I found one that is both vintage inspired, cheap and doesnt cut my vagina in half! WHOOP!
Can I also give a huge shout out to the company behind my faux hair bun. Annabelle's Wigs are my go-to people for hair pieces. Perfection in follicles or should I say in faux-licles? Go check them out!

La Perla Ding Dong
Wow! La Perla seem to have swallowed some of Lady Gaga's sense of 'style' and created some glamorous sophisticated takes on it.There are a lot of new arrivals but its the JP Gaultier collection that is by far and away the best. Very much a 40s take on some futurist styled lingerie...makes me think of the that famous film Metropolis. I can see the likes of Katherine Hepburn swanning about her boudoir in some of this snazzy numbers.

Linens and Bedding
Whilst not strictly fashion in the sense of clothing it is fashion for the house.
Sin in the Linen offers some pretty fabulous items for the home and yes I am lusting for it all. I have added some to my Amazon wishlist. I love the pinup collection the best as the skulls are a little too over done but all in all some nice items for the house.
