“I remember when metal was something you really had to search out, and now I hear it on car commercials.” – Trevor Dunn. When I was a kid I loved Heavy Metal music. It spoke to me, both musically and lyrically. Much of what revolved around my turn table on the early and mid 80s was created by kids close to my own age who understood, accepted and amplified my teen angst. Loving Heavy...

This outfit feels very Sub Pop circa 1992 to me. I know that buffalo plaid is pretty much the lamest thing ever (except in this instance), but flannel is warm and I am chilly! Plus, these pants have miraculously managed to pick up a new stain every time I wear them, which just makes me feel that much more gruuuunge. Long live the Croc Docs! (Cuffed pants + Doc Martens = skinhead? Here's hoping that...

I'm a bit in love with my brown ankle boots, they have a small heel and a gold buckle more than that they are perfect for this horrid weather. I can't help noticing that there are tonnes of gorgeous flatty boots on the high street, so for anyone who is interested here's a few I have picked out whilst internet window shopping over the weekend: Topshop - Ambrose boots, £65 Urban Outfitters - Lace...

Last week I got to go to the Rare Press Day at the swish Groucho Club in Soho, avec Fiona , Ozzy and Reena to see their offerings for next Spring. Rare is stocked in Topshop amongst the numerous concession brands that are continuing to improve their stock and severely tempt my wallet. I'd always associated the brand with glitzy party dresses and lot's of glamour but being a scruff, I was quite delighted...

Went to the Mashup Social Media event this afternoon, what followed was a "Pecha Kucha" Session for 4 hours as the presentations came thick and fast - there was a LOT of Media, the Twitterwall made it Social (after a fashion) and boy were we mashed up - it was full! I made some notes on my trusty iPhone as things kept coming, so here are the things that resonated from each talk. Apologies...

yeah, this is one of those annoying "omg i want i need, i die, i choke, rachel zoe-isms, etc" posts commonly encountered around the blogs, but I cannot help it. The thigh- high JPG cut-out Docs and I are meant to be. At first I decided to try contacting JPG directly to find out cost, points of sale, etc., but their website doesn't have any emails listed, only a very annoying contact form....

A short moment ago, while out for an Internet stroll, my head exploded. I received a link via @susiebubble to the Doc Martens shoes and boots designed by Raf Simons and instantly, my worlds collided. Sigh. My thoughts flashed back to the boys in Docs we used to gush over in school (never wore them myself – [...]

Jacket: Vintage Skirt, top, hat: Forever 21 Bag: Mango MNG Unicorn necklace: ASOS Boots: Doctor Marten It was hard to dress "1995" without being too on the nose (1995 was a special year for me as you'll read below), but I thought Doc boots, tights, floral skirt, a beanie, a unicorn necklace, a big bag and a "Singles"-esque leather jacket was pretty good. I actually went shopping...

John Howard has a Doc Marten boot thrown at him in Cambridge and at the same time is accused of being a racist? What's going on in the world? I thought Doc's were the boot of choice for racist skinheads?
