They're CLOGTASTIC!!

As you can tell from my first post, I am totally obsessed with Clogs! So it is only fitting they should be featured in my first real blog.

We first seen Clogs come back at the end of last year but it wasn't till the March cover of Vogue, that we seen the official come back of the clog! God bless you Alexa Chung, your Chanel halo is glistening.

Since that cover and countless celebs parading round in their serious tidy clogs, I have literally been salivating over my computer screen, shop windows and high streets in Manchester!

Who knew that the shoe traditionally made to protect ones feet, whilst working on the farms and in the factories and mines. Would be gracing the cover of Vogue with a serious luscious  revamp.

REAL VS STEAL

REAL: Everyone should be obsessing over these drop dead gorgeous Chanel clogs that Alexa sported back in the March edition of Vogue.

STEAL: Jeffrey Campbell has to be laughing all the way to the bank with their almost identical Charlie C Clogs, at £85 or around $125 it is a fantastic steal, with the only big noticeable difference being the buckle on the instep strap that can be worn at the front and round the back of your heel.

Now I hate to sway away from anything Karl Largerfeld, but I really do prefer the extra versatility the Jeffrey Campbell Clog offers with the strap, and the fact that I could buy all the variations of the collection for the price of one pair of Clogs may have something to do with it, Let me know what you think?

Of course the luxury of having Chanel on your feet is an unbelievable feeling- well literally as I don't have any Chanel, but I can imagine it is pretty good!-and strolling around town with these beauties on your feet is a real omg look at me moment. But the steal is such a fantastic copy unless you are completely loaded  and can afford both then luck you, but how could you not go for the best steal I've seen for a while and purchase a bloody lovely pair of Jeffrey Campbells, I know I will be next Tuesday, when payday comes around again :)

Brits can purchase Jeffrey Campbell at office http://www.office.com/

My first blog

Ive never written a blog before so I'm just guessing you're supposed to treat it as a diary?

My names Charlie, I'm 19 and from England.

As you will see throughout this blog my English is awful and unfortunately I cant structure sentences for a pair of YSL pumps or Chanel clogs that I am totally obsessiong over! (Its a sad world) How I got an A in English I don't know. I'm in my last year at college; where I study business and will hopefully be attending uni next September should anyone let me in :/

I live at home with my Mother and Brothers, my lovely yet paranoid fluffy Chinese Crested and a very cool Tom Cat. And as you might guess with the Primarni budget my family except my little brother have other things to obsess about than fashion. My little brother on the other hand is some what of a genius, on countless times he has helped me organise my wardrobe, put together outfits and give me advice,(although sometimes unwanted, but usually bang on.)  on all the new trends he sees on E news. All whilst singing show tunes or the soundtrack of Glee. A perfect pocket stylist :) It is nice to have someone in the family who won't say yes automatically, when you ask them about your outfit or for their opinion on the new must haves.

I have a boyfriend of two years, who really is a knight in shining armour aaaand almost perfect in every single way ;) And absolutely gorgeous! He's a great cook, I wish he'd cook for me more often but I did say almost perfect! I'm a bit of a nightmare girlfriend although he'd disagree as I suffer pretty bad anxieties but he's good at keeping me sane-ish and out of a mental institute, I'd like to say I'm kidding. Love love love :)

In terms of Uni I have my eye on LCF in London, just the thought of sifting through all the amazing finds in little vintage boutiques makes me skip a heart beat. I'm applying for BA Fashion management and should I get accepted I'll be moving across country and settling down in the big smoke; which really does and mind my french SHIT me up! But in a good exciting kind of way :p

Which brings me to the point of this blog, although I have been toying with the idea for a while and am completely unqualified to do so it has been recommended as a req. for the course so I thought I best give it a shot and if no one reads it at least I've saved my self some embarrassment.

So yeah I had to create a clog I mean blog- I really need some clogs baaad, has anyone seen the Jeffrey Campbell Charlie clog, they are a pretty smart match to the Chanel ones and £85 I think primarni girl can stump up the cash for those bad boys!! Anyway I had to create a BLOG to comment on fashion, so to say the least this should be interesting. And hopefully I can learn a lot more whilst I blog... sounds so American, I love it!

I know people can comment on this so if anyone ever sees this and has any advice on the whole blogging shabang or inspiration please give me the heads up cos I am sure I am batting way above my average.

Anyway If you have read this then cheers and hope at least some of the stuff I put on here is at least half decent to help me in to UNI.. ARGHHHHHHHH!!
