LFW: Day one

I wasn't going to go, I really wasn't.  Because I'm sick... and not a very gung-ho sick person.

I should have followed my instincts and got back into bed, especially when I hit the pavement and one of my shoes was making that 'tac tac tac' I need to be re-heeled noises.

Somerset house was cold - I was fluey.  Not a righteous combination... and after missing all the morning shows (due to achey-boneage  and runny nose troubles) I met up with possibly the most glamorous sidekick/ photographer ever and we queued for the Bora Aksu show.

And we queued...

And we queued until an adorned PR strolled past and told us in her sing-song voice that the show had already started and they were not letting anybody else in*.

F*ckballs.

Totally put out by this I put the rest of my tickets on layaway I went and had coffee and cheese sandwiches at Cafe Nero down the street.

So out of 6 shows I had booked in today I went to 0.

The only fun thing about today was getting home and eating chicken wings while watching America's next top model and hearing one of the contestants declining a nude photo-shoot by saying:

'I can't get naked like that, its not lady like...especially not when there are going to be guys down there all in my private party - this is for my husband'.

It tickled me.

Anywho, some cool pictures of today to follow. Tomorrow 5 more shows and lashings of exhibitions, I will do better.

Loveness.

MM x

*really, thanks for that.

I queued for PPQ after getting an evite and being told my name would be on the list...but LO and behold after the Geldof chick came in with 100 of her "people" there was suddenly no space and PR was damn useless..
