DO IT LIKE A STARMAN

I'm not really one to jump on a pop star bandwagon (GAGA*ahem*) however I have to confess a bit of a random style-crush on Jessie J. I've totally sickened myself with that song, Do It Like a Dude, but I can most definitely still appreciate a hot outfit on Miss J, and this is no exception:

The rest of the outfit is OK but I am crushing HARD on those House of Holland star-print tights. Very Miu Miu SS11, no?

Uh-oh I predict another tights-buying frenzy... Mind the super suspenders from last year? Mark my words, these badboys will be the next of Henry's kitsch hosiery to sell out...

OH AAAAND for those of you who commented on my LEATHER DILEMMA post, I picked up my ACNE Rita leather jacket today and will most definitely be keeping it! I loved the other one too, but in the end the textured effect, boxy shape and silver zips/studs combine in this piece to give a timeless rock n roll look - something I know I'll never tire of.

Thanks for your feedback though, it was a hard decision!

FINALLY!! I am now 9th in the voting lineup to win the Elle internship, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE vote - yes, I'm begging - if you have a spare few seconds, as it would seriously make my entire life. Voting closes on Friday.

Not to be dramatic or nothing...

LEATHER DILEMA

One of the first things I knew I wanted to get with my AWESOME Net-a-Porter prize was a smokin hot leather jacket... As soon as I saw the Burberry quilted beauty I fell HARD for it. Alas it wasn't to be - production issues mean it's not going to be re-stocked in a size 10. Gutted doesn't even begin cover it...

However, I'd like to think I've moved on from my grief and I feel ready to love again...

But I need your help. I can't decide between these two contenders:

First up we have the classic style of the ACNE Rita leather biker jacket - the aviator version was seen everywhere this winter (Cheryl Cole and Alexa Chung being two of its biggest fans) and for SS11 ACNE have re-released it sans shearling collar.

You can't really beat a classic biker style can you? The whole point about an expensive leather jacket is that it'll last forever, and I can't ever imagine not digging this look.

HOWEVER....

Consider, if you will, contender number two - Zadig and Voltaire perfia leather jacket with awesome studded collar and removable sleeves... sigh! Sold out on the website but I have it on reserve.

I love that this is a bit different, and the studded collar is totally hot to trot, no?

HELP! What one do you like better??

PS only one week to go to VOTE FOR ME to win the internship at ELLEuk.com. Yet again I'ma plead for your votes sistas... I hate myself a little bit every time I ask people to vote for me but I'ma still do it cos THAT'S HOW MUCH I WANT IT. Read my application and if you like it click the little Pick Me link.

(Click me! Click me! Click me!)

Over and out.

HELP!

"I need somebody..." *ahem* OK, seriously bloggies, I need some serious help here:

Vote for me, vote for me, vote for me, vote for me, vote for me, vote for me, vote for me!

No doubt you'll all have heard about ELLEuk.com's competition to win a paid internship... Amazing opportunity, right? RIGHT!

I wanted to enter from the beginning but I doubted myself more and more as the volume of entries increased almost hourly. But two days ago I threw caution to the wind and entered. I tried to answer the questions truthfully and confidently with as much personality as I could muster without sounding corny.

I'd love it if you could read my entry and if you like what I've said then please vote for me.

I'm WELL AWARE I'm a complete and utter outsider and total underdog compared to the big blogging names who have entered and already ammassed loads of votes... But I'd honestly rather people voted for me because they geniunely think I have a nice style of writing or know I would value the opportunity or believe in me or whatevs...

SO yeah, please have a read and vote/comment  if you would like to see me win :)

Thanks, self-promotion over.
