[Two days later *ahem*]
This is what a homeless lady said to me at 5.45pm the Sunday before last while I was sat on the platform waiting for my tube home.

This is what a homeless lady said to me at 5.45pm the Sunday before last while I was sat on the platform waiting for my tube home.
I had been out all night
and I was ashamed.
The previous day we, (myself Blondie et al) had taken ourselves to the lovebox festival.
As festivals go in the UK, the overall atmosphere at Lovebox was tame - not a puking reveller in sight...
However as days out with me go, it was pretty wild.
It was destined to be:
I was wearing my super-tight, super-hot, super-shiny-slut dress (for the sexual), my GAP biker boots (for staying power) my biker jacket (which I'm getting a little tired of, but wore it y'kno for warmth) and the D&G aviators (for the yes-I-am-someone-as I-am-wearing-designer-sunglasses factor).
I was dressed to kill... and when I am there is only one victim in sight...
Myself.
Florence + the machine merged into vodka merged into Horse meat Disco merged into Friendly Fires merged into more vodka merged into Duran Duran, merged into a 6foot4 rugby player, merged into his apartment, merged into... well being a Shiny Slut until approximately 4pm the next day.
Then I had to make my way home with ripped tights, curiously rigid upright hair, an unshowered body & unwashed face, panda eyes and alcohol breath. I'd spent all my money on, well booze, and so I had to take public transport rather than the desired face-saving taxi ride. ...
Where the soundtrack to the previous day had been Charmer [Kings of Leon] - damn that song for making me feel so sexual - the homeward journey's accompanying soundtrack was Everyboy Hurts (R.E.M.)... On repeat.
Again, this story lends itself to the shiny slut category (thanks for pointing that out you know who you are).
I know. I should get a new tac, but the shiny in me does not seem to want to die.
I was obviously in no fit state to take pictures of the day myself - but thankfully Elle.com was on top form...

See you there!
my love, this sounds like a day right out of my life.
I feel like I can't handle going out well.
I always think 'this better be worth it' in an attempt of getting the best of the night.
fact is, the night seems to get the best out of me - figuratively and.. not- mostly.
also, I´m THE most ridiculous being right now. wandering around the apartment with a glass of wine, staring at my notebook once a minute to see.. nothing.
I am waiting for an email, how pathetic can I get?
<3
Very entertaining read. Brings back memories of my own walk of shame, I believe we should never let the sun catch us unless we take that cab ride home :D
Hahaha, very cute :P
Love the photos...
These outfits are great and your story made me laugh! xoxox
SEXually hilarious.
Good to hear from you MM, but where is PP and MMP?
We miss you!
HAHAHA now this is a situation we all know well... working ruby red slippers would be nice to own rather than public transport, but if i had ruby red slippers ill probably take trains anyway to show them off!
gosh remi
wish i could have been your sidekick for this one.
@Alice - such a sweet comment thank you!
@ Isa - Lady we clearly have to talk!
@ Anon 23:45 - MMP is currently spending the summer on a little island off the SW of France (to which I'm supposed to be joining her) which has dial-up connection therefore no posts till she gets back to Milan. :-( , PP erm yeah... you tell me!
@ Trigg - come to NY and be my wing man...

just discovered this blog - brilliant!! Er, yes, the Walk of Shame is always bad for me because I live above a newsagents and the crew of Turkish dudes who work there never, ever forget when I come home the next day in full slap. It then gets brought up daily, and they nudge, nudge, my two male housemates....
