There’s nothing like a spot of tea. And what better to complete the occasion than a good old-fashioned tea dress? If you’re the dressy type, you may have some interest in Pearl Lowe’s new collection of charming little tea dresses for high street budget fashion fave Peacocks. Need a little something to sweeten the deal? Modelling the collection is none other than the aforementioned rockstar/designer’s lovely daughter, the very Miss Daisy Lowe. … Continue Reading

This photo shoot doesn’t need much of an introduction. So many fashion mags’ representations of lesbians are either clichéd, over-sexualised or … Continue Reading

It’s time to separate the style from the sleaze, the women from the teens. Yes. The highly anticipated sister of men’s magazine Fantastic Man, The Gentlewoman has finally arrived. From ‘Ga-Ga Ooh la la’ to kick ass ‘Kathryn Bigelow’, it’s been a great start to the decade for super stylish female talent in the media – and so, the time is now for The Gentlewoman to represent this breed of female style intelligentsia. Read TMC’s exclusive interview with self-made editor-in-chief Penny Martin … Continue Reading
What did you do last weekend? On a cross-London sojourn with my girlfriend, I saw lots of things that made me happy – fountains, sunshine, Tilda Swinton…. If your heart didn’t stop when you read that last one, I’d be surprised. … Continue Reading

If you’re a member of the iGeneration, your shopping patterns will generally consist of a combination of choreographed high street experiences, online obsessing (asos, eBay…) and trips to retro stores. The latter always seems more appealing: a brief respite from the usual glut of new trends and identikit shop layouts. … Continue Reading
Spring! I love spring. The sunshine, the grass, the only slightly freezing water at Hampstead Heath’s lady pond… there are a lot of reasons to love warm weather, but my favourite by far has to do with cleavage. Yours, yes – I can’t say that I don’t love the sight of a lady taking her puppies out for a walk. But mainly – and more selfishly – my own. … Continue Reading

If Facehunter‘s the king of street style sites, Jak and Jil is its tempestuous son, all slick and shiny: if you haven’t seen it before, have a gander. Packed full of landscape snapshots of hats, jackets and shoes, the site’s founder Tommy Ton has perfected the art of people – and obsessive fashion – watching. … Continue Reading

I really like this song, but that’s not strictly the reason why I’ve chosen this video for today. There are only two members of The Big Pink; Robbie Furze and Milo Cordell. However, it’s not them I’m interested in. My attention centres around the drummer they employ who goes by the name of Akiko “exceedingly good Keex” Matsuura, a little Japanese punk rock girl. I wanted to introduce you to her, if you didn’t know about her before, because she is just COOL! … Continue Reading
Power dykes, break-up chat, gay politics, thrilling tunes, inebriation liberation and sexual encounters with Lady Gaga – you’d be forgiven if you thought I was at some random, amazing party, but you’d not be far off. In reality, I was getting my hair did at the fabulous Shambo Chateau, where the music is marvellous, the company quite spectacular and 2 pm is never too early for a drink. … Continue Reading
Oh leather. Normally, the idea of wearing an animal’s skin makes me cringe and die a little. But there’s just something about good leather. Black, brown, tan, white – whatever. There’s just something about the stuff that makes me swoon a little inside. And no wonder. Is there really anything sexier than a girl in a good leather jacket?
So by now, everyone must have heard about Nick Griffin on Question Time. For those of you who have not heard about this debacle, I could try to explain, but my brain and fingers find him rather revolting, and also are sick of writing/thinking about him. Hence, I tried to write a short explanation, but it all came out rather like this: … Continue Reading
