Christmas Special: For The Girl Who (thinks she) Has It All

Well put your FOMO on hold and read on, […]
MoreMen of Ireland: It’s time to stop committing this crime against fashion
Post by TM I only judge people on their style privately. Or in a specifically designated WhatsApp group with my fellow bitches. But never out loud in public and never in comments on t’internet. I believe that people should wear whatever the hell they like, but sometimes I wish they would like something else. Some […]

Post by CM This post was originally posted in September 2017 and updated on 06.12.18 to reflect the shimmery sequin trends of Christmas 2018!
