On the topic of perfume, I ordered the perfume parlour version of Mojave Ghost and oh man I love it. Byredo is overpriced and overhyped IMO but yeah I’ve been smelling my own wrists for a week so there you go 😂

Oh I didn’t know they did a copy of this, my favourite perfume ever. I’ll have to take a look as Byredo is just a rip off. Thank you!
In other news one post on here has led me to being blocked on twitter and Instagram.
 
She has that one high eyebrow arch thing that too much Botox gives you. Like she’s constantly giving the evil eye 😆

Bloody hell, I made a joke recently about Lauren updating her spreadsheet on us all but didn’t think she was still at it. What a life she leads.

Mojave Ghost - it’s fast becoming mine as well. So enigmatic and beautiful. I’m intrigued to know what sapodilla smells like on its own. Tempted by Rose Of No Man’s Land and La Tulipe now 😵

(Btw in case it helps - I am a convert to the perfume parlour oils over the sprays as the scents are more true without the alcohol and longer lasting too).
 
She reminds me of a high school English student doing their best to impress the teacher with overwrought language from a thesaurus.
Orwell's six rules:
  1. Never use a metaphor, simile, or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.
  2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.
  3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.
  4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.
  5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word, or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

Sali, of course, being such an iconoclast ... 💤

Big of character. Deep of pocket ..... tEaChErS oF cHiLdReN 🤪

Thanks for the advice. I can see me spending a fortune trying them out.

Oh god. So many adjectives, and alliteration to boot. This would never have got by me. Is there no subs desk on the Guardian anymore?
