Look magazine – oh my lawd!

by Karen Blanchard
20 August 2010

My mouth literally fell open when I saw this double page spread in Look magazine, Britain’s biggest selling weekly fashion mag.
Thanks to everyone who emailed me when I asked for a copy in this post. To say I’m well chuffed is an understatement, but when I saw this note taped to a big box that arrived from blog reader Donna, I lost it. She packed inside two dresses, jewellery and packets of Wotsits and Monster Munch (roast beef!!). Without wanting to sound a bit soft, a lot of you are not only readers, but really really cool friends to find.
ps. A huge thank you to Look magazine for this blogger feature.
pps. Thank you Kimmer for sending me a copy too. It’s my back up!
Mum – your copy will be with you soon.

    Congratulations..credit is due to those who deserve it, and I have to say you do. I like the way you shop, love that your wardrobe is compiled from different places and you put them together with such creativity and flare. Some people can spend so much money yet lack the imagination and sense to create a visually pleasing attire. Your blog is inspirational and very informative. （＾ｕ＾）
