Ugg is for Ugly Boots

Photo by 'colros' on FlickrSeriously ladies what is the obsession with these boots. I have now read a few articles on other fashion sites that seem to praise these horrible inventions. When I am out and about, nights out, shopping or having a meal with friends and see someone wearing Ugg boots they don’t even get a second glance from me! Yes! I know I have something against them! They are the biggest fashion mistake of my generation.

Woman’s fashion is all about curves and lines. A good friend of mine believes that the female form looks at its most beautiful when all these lines lead closer and closer together ending at the point of the toes, or heal of the shoe (depends if you are wearing high heals) I tend to agree with him on this, it really does complete the look.

Fluff around the tops just multiplies the issue and throwing a pom pom on there…seriously what were the designers thinking.. and if you bought a pair of Ugg boots like this… what were you thinking?!  Seriously, leave a comment because I would love to know!

If you must wear Ugg boots… please ladies don’t tuck you jeans into them, that is one of my worst! Secondly Ugg boots and Denim Skirts do not work together… and don’t go giving me that they’re great coz they keep your feet warm, if you are wearing a skirt you’re asking to be cold in the first place! So don’t make up for it with horrible boots!

Since you have read all the way to here… you’re obviously hoping to know what I would recommend! Okay! If you really do love your boots, go out and buy some proper cowboy boots.. pointy toes, flames in the leather. They’re still boots but trust me a good pair of cowboy boots can go along way! Seriously though, its hard to make boots look good. Period!

Otherwise live on the flipside.. and be daring and get some leather or vinyl thigh high boots. :) Ps. in my searches I couldn’t find a single pic where I thought the boots looked good! Teehee!

Super Skinny Me

So we have all heard about the film Super Size Me! Sadly I have not seen it… I know… I know… I do live on the other side of life remember!!

But when I heard about a film called Super Skinny Me it caught my attention! Getting and staying thin is something on just about every bodies mind these days. This BBC documentary follows the life of two women who attempt to drop 5 dress sizes and get down to Size Zero in just 5 Weeks. The world of crash dieting is actually quiet shocking!

Upside:- They definitely both lost weight!

Downside:- There are some serious dangers, not only physically but mentally! Seriously ladies if you are going to diet do it carefully and get some medical advise before you do!

Blanka Vlašic takes Gold!!

Blanka Vlasic by Adifans on FlickrIn my opinion High Jump is one of the sadly ignored sports by most of the world! People seem to over look it and sure enough local South African Television networks don’t prioritise it! During the Beijing Olympics I had to get up at 3am one morning simply to watch the high jump (which was interspersed with 400m running) It will go as always, South Africa will suddenly put out a great high jumper and voila suddenly the networks will think it worthy!

What was totally awesome though, during the 2009 Athletics World Championships, Blanka Vlaši? took Gold! You gotta love and support a girl who can jump over just about everyone on this planet… including me, and I stand at 1.93m tall! It redefines… ‘High Five!’

Upside:- It is well deserved after her second place at the Olympics!

Downside:- We don’t see enough High Jump on TV networks in SA!
