So basically I was one of the excited/sad/desperate* few to queue up at the Bullring, Birmingham for the launch of the Versace x H&M collection. I had to get on the bus from Stourbridge, just outside of Birmingham for 5:09am just be in the city centre for 6 where I joined about 30 excitable fashion people (fashionistas sounds like such a desperate and cliche term). I must say, it was worth it....

After my (little?) splurge in H&M (it was surreal dropping those kind of dollars in my favourite basics store) a man took my photo infront of the Bull (Birminghams icon metal statue thing), which I initially thought was for a fashion blog or something to document the hysteria around the collection.
That was until the man in my local Tesco announced he saw me in the paper and recognised my glasses....


What did people buy from the collection then? Almost a week on are there any buyers remorse situations coming in? I mean the shoulder pads floral dress doesn't really scream practical and classic or even Christmas party dress does it...

What do people blog about?

What do people like to read about?
Why do people follow certain blogs?
What tone and style of language is the most effective?

I am going to read, read, read, watch Simpsons, read and probably get back to you with the most interesting post ever. Or at least a solution or some sort equation that equals interesting and engaging posts....
