The 21st century celebrity unmasked

Frank Sinatra: A musical legend with
an extraordinary talent

I was having a long conversation with somebody today about fame and fortune and both of their meanings and It's got me thinking about how we define and view celebrities. 
It's now become so ridiculously easy to become famous that the word 'celebrity' can no longer be defined as simply 'being celebrated', instead it's a term which every other person is for no apparent reason. 
    It seriously winds me up when the modern celebrity claim on their reality tv shows  "I've got to keep working to look after my kids" but their idea of work is doing a 5 minute interview on daytime television alongside a camera crew following them around their everyday lives, earning a fortune yet still complaining about there workload! - when people work 24/7 and earn next to nothing but they're still hardworking individuals with a kind and humble heart. If I honestly wanted, I could parade around central London naked tomorrow protesting, gain press attention through doing a few interviews for national television and the next day I'd be recognised as 'a celebrity'.

Mark who? 

   Fame is no longer valued like it used to be. It was once defined through success but it's now given on a plate to certain people and even then they take it for granted. Particularly, these reality tv stars who now walze around with faux Birkin bags thinking they have the world at their fingertips awaiting for their next little fan to run along and make them feel that little bit more famous. and what have they done to deserve such power in society?


Answer: Nothing.



Under no circumstances am I generalising all 21st century celebrities as ungrateful and immodest as I know for a fact that many will be quite the opposite but I just wish that we'd stop the mass production of celebrities that have no reason to be celebrated.

^What I'm wearing:
Zara monochrome blouse,
Mango black jeans, Topshop
booties, Monsoon clutch

For those of you who know me,

you’ll understand that I’m not the

greatest fan of Topshop.  Thats not to

say I won’t shop there because 

don’t get me wrong, they have some 

beautiful pieces. I occasionally find

it all a bit ‘copycat’. You’ll walk down 

the street and one girl will be wearing a

peter pan collar jersey in green and 

then the next girl you see will be wearing the exact same one.

Regardless, I was pondering around the Oxford St. store last week and these babies caught my eye. They had no price tag and  no shoe size, they were just staring right at me awaiting their new home. The first words that came to mind were OMG OLIVIA PALERMO CHARLOTTE OLYMPIA BOOTIES WITHOUT THE HUGE PRICE TAG. Then when I got home to my friends apartment that evening to show her my purchases, she said the exact same words.


Safe to say, these shoes were made for me.

Welcome, again.

I've attempted to blog before and it's never worked out. I've either forgot to do it, lost inspiration and interest or simply just forgot my password and my username (what can I say, I'm forgetful) - So after many attempts you'd perhaps think I'd take a hint and  just give up right? - Wrong. 
I'm going to make myself useful and give it one last shot to start a fresh new one based upon the happenings in my life and to share my views and style to the world. Even if only one person reads this, I'll honestly be happy. I just vow to not give in this time. So here I go...


watch this space.
