"Hello Daddy, hello Mum,
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb.
Hello world I'm your wild girl,
I'm your ch ch ch ch ch cherry bomb."

Sorry I couldn't resist a bit of Runaways. I actually finally got round to watching the film a couple of weeks ago, I wasn't sure about it. I think it was good if you didn't know about the band before, but having discovered them a couple of years back & read Cherie Currie's Neon Angel I think it was a pretty glossy portrayal. 

Anywho... I never really understood Esprit as a shop. It used to be limited to the rest of Europe & then one appeared in Cabot Circus in Bristol. It's always empty & I don't really know anyone who shops there, but they can afford to hire Gisele & Erin Wasson? I always thought it must be drug money. Turns out they're actually part of the La Redoute family so I guess the money's spread about. However, I'll go anywhere for a good print & when looking up for a cover up before I went to France in August I spotted this in the sale. Silk & cotton? Perfect. Not sure about the mandarin collar which makes it harder to wear, but the cherries are worth it!

PLUS I know in my hearts on hearts it's cheesy & bad but FUCK Kreayshawn's new album is awesome. Listening to this song on repeat, getting sideways looks whilst singing along to lyrics about burning/stabbing/shooting stuff. Anyway, listen. Promise it'll never leave your head. In the best of ways.

  1. i've been in them a couple of times but you're right, it's always empty. it's like a cross between a benetton and a low rent uniqlo but it does confuse me. looks cool though, nice print and stuff.

    always try get a couple of cheeky snaps of packaging that you see, i'll be interested

  2. i know what you mean, they seem like one of those places that are 'good for basics', but not as good as other basics places and kind of a waste of time? still, cool shirt x
