Flirting With The Fauxhawk





Anyone that follows me on Twitter might have realised that I spent most of Wednesday night hunting down YouTube videos of young Scene kids back-coming their to an inch of its life. I eventually came across Miss Chievous' Fawkhawk tutorial. I can do that! I yelped. I had already mentally planned a kick-ass outfit for Friday night's jaunt to House of Honey in the Wild, but what I really needed was a new 'do. Bring on the Fawhawk! My inspiration for this look? Why, none other than the UK's number 2 topless 'media personality', Jodie Marsh. This is the look she went for after she decided to become a lesbian - for a while. I think she looks nasty - in a good way.

Friday's outfit was inspired my new darling Vivienne Westwood for Melissa shoes. A few weeks ago I got a rather lovely email from the wondrous Suzanne over at Idee Fixe offering to pop into the NY sample sale and pick me up a wee bargain. Didn't she do well?! I'm totally delighted with these babies and they helped to add a feminine edge to my otherwise quite masculine look.

And here's the full ensemble...

  3. The shoulderpiece and your fauxhawk go so well together! And I'm desperate for a pair of cherry melissas!

  4. Holy crap that is AMAZING! It suits you so much, it should definitely become a regular 'do of yours. Plus, you look way better than Jodie Marsh (although that kind of goes without saying, obv).

  7. I would probably mug an old lady for those shoulder pieces. You look so good I could vomit with jealousy. So trying that hairdo as well.

  8. I'm sorry to inform you that you are in no way "masculine", you're a BABE! The faux hawk looks amazing, wish I didn't just cut off about 6 inches of hair ): or I'd be trying it out myself! Back in olden times (you know when dinosaurs roamed the earth?) I had quite a lovely giant backcombed mess of a green Mohawk. I kept it for quite some time doing odd things to it in order to keep myself amused. I absolutely love the outfit, and your tootsie birdies look stunning peeking out of your VW Melissa's! I'm so glad you love them -- I'll be sure to let you know of the next big sale too! (I think in the autumn.)

  12. You NEED to keep this hairdo! It's perfect on you! I had an actual mohawk for a while, in my early 20's, and looked quite terrifying.
