the dirty 30's . . . what have you accomplished?

it is inevitable that most women dread turning 30. but it is important that you look back and appreciate the journey you have taken (hopefully it has been a good one). the fashion spot recently published a list of 10 things things every woman should have by the time the big 3. 0. comes around.


here they are:



1. a decent piece of furniture :a piece of furniture  that was not bought off gumtree or handed down by some relative. as you leave the "student" lifestyle and begin building your own home, it is important that you own something that is apart of you.




2. a small circle of friends you can trust with anything  : by the time 30 is here, you have figured out who you  are and have witnessed first hand who your true and close friends are.
3. the knowledge of whether you want to have children or not : this is important in general. no further explanation needed.
4. something impractical and expensive that you bought yourself just because you wanted it : i think we all know what i mean here. you deserve that designer handbag or those Prada shoes that you have always admired but never owned. if you heading for 30, then you better act quick (or eveb Christian Louboutin red sole shoes are an option too!)

Yves Saint-Laurent

i found this image early this morning. it made me smile so i thought i would share it with you too.  
it is an old quote by my friend Yves Saint Laurent, but this graphic is just superb.

"The most beautiful makeup of a woman is passion. But cosmetics are easier to buy."

"FASHIONS FADE, STYLE IS ETERNAL" 

"I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: the most spectacular, the most practical, the most relaxed and nonchalant. They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity - all I hope for in my clothes" 

- Yves Saint-Laurent



before posting this, i did a bit of research into my friend Yves Saint-Laurent. and wow, what an influential man within the fashion industry. i will definitely be posting something more on him in the near future. watch this space. 
have a lovely long weekend. xx
