Rant over, I have been pretty busy as of late. It was my birthday over the weekend and I had held the annual Austin BBQ. It was lovely but required a lot of effort before and after (and not all of mine). So now I'm winding down, de-cluttering my life. anxiously waiting news of my interview for my dream job and adjusting to turning 23, wah!

Is it just me?
I'm not too sure how alone I am in my opinion of this certain famous person, but I for one, cannot stand Beth Ditto. Reading the London Paper yesterday, I come across yet another editorial about her and Evans and the apparent 'genius' range. It's not genius, it's not even particularly nice. I find the whole fascination with her slightly pathetic, to be brutally honest. She doesn't fly the flag for curvy people, she flies the flag for morbidly obese people, and that is one flag that should not be flown. I am all for curvy woman gracing the catwalk/magazines/billboards, promoting a healthy body image for young girls but she isn't. Nothing about what she stands for is healthy, she is just as bad as the size zero debacle that caused such outrage over the last couple of years. I know she would probably lose a lot of her fanbase if she lost weight and sorted herself out, but its disgusting the way she is now lauded by the fashion industry - Katie Grand putting her naked on the front of Love? Please, its been done.
