The weather is closing in in London, I’m sorry to say. Perhaps we have one or two hotties left but my toes were decidedly chilly tonight coming home. Now that the Elaine look is well and truly ‘out there‘ I’m searching out a new winter vibe.
I know Mr G won’t appreciate the silhouette particularly but I’m feeling a little Betty Goodwin is a frontrunner…

Still working on Friday night at half past eight. I feel like pulling a fierce look with cigarette like Joan Didion and this Facehunter girl… Unfortunately I don’t smoke.

Rather dull Oscars + Corey Haim’s passing = Martha Plimpton and River Phoenix in 1989.

I mean, really. All those starlets can just go home right now and start again. Dont worry, neither of them feature in this.

Moisturise more.
And post more regularly.
2009 was a strange year of highs and lows, and I gather from facebook and my google reader that there are many many people out there very glad to put it behind them. I wonder what 2010 will hold. I hope to make headway with personal projects, and not get so lost in work. Make the moments count. Even the dread commute.
I hope my new bike will set the momentum for 2010.

Mr Mort and I share the same taste in women. I wish he’d feature them more often…
