Is it possible ? Have I actually gotten so back in the habit of blogging that I felt the need for a new issue of my vintage fashion zine?Or perhaps the real question is do I actually feel good enough about myself again that making a point of expressing my sense of style is once more a priority? I won't lie,I had a tough 2009 with many life changing events. My challenges perhaps deserve a post of their...

Although I hold the philosophy that comfort dressing is not just for winter, there is something very satisfying about wrapping myself up in endless fabrics when its five degree outside. Grey Uniqlo heat tech under a trusty plaid dress, fluffy cardigan topped up with a huge hooded fur parka, and I'm ready to revive the unholy combination of baggy meets twee. outfit 1: Cardigan: h&m Dress: gap Shoes:...

Wear a size 6 shoe? Unlucky. Amazon have bad news if you were in the market for a pair of Doc Marten’s. Turns out it’d be cheaper to drive there instead of walking: Thanks to Bitterwallet reader Anoop

yeah, this is one of those annoying "omg i want i need, i die, i choke, rachel zoe-isms, etc" posts commonly encountered around the blogs, but I cannot help it. The thigh- high JPG cut-out Docs and I are meant to be. At first I decided to try contacting JPG directly to find out cost, points of sale, etc., but their website doesn't have any emails listed, only a very annoying contact form....

Jacket: Vintage Skirt, top, hat: Forever 21 Bag: Mango MNG Unicorn necklace: ASOS Boots: Doctor Marten It was hard to dress "1995" without being too on the nose (1995 was a special year for me as you'll read below), but I thought Doc boots, tights, floral skirt, a beanie, a unicorn necklace, a big bag and a "Singles"-esque leather jacket was pretty good. I actually went shopping...

John Howard has a Doc Marten boot thrown at him in Cambridge and at the same time is accused of being a racist? What's going on in the world? I thought Doc's were the boot of choice for racist skinheads?
