“I found out recently that a lot of the girls I went to school with have had nervous breakdowns. I was so shocked because I can understand it. When I hear about the things they have to go through, I get it – the day-to-day pressures that make you go crazy. I have so much shit put on me.” -- Peaches Geldof, From London Times.
We've all placed bids on Ebay for what we thought was some ridiculously amazing high fashion article of clothing only to find out when the creptic package came that it was probably purchased from Forever21 and couldn't be anymore fake.
Yeah, it sucks. Yeah, it can make someone temporarily bitter. And yes, it could cause someone to seriously consider buying from Peaches Geldof the next time they want to make a safe sartorial purchase.
The British socialite is hawking a couple of pieces from her wardrobe on the auction site. Apparently, she is moving to a new flat with a couple of buddies and has way too many clothes to take to her new digs. Bummer, for sure.
She says a "percentage of the proceeds will go to charity" but I think the money will probably just go to buying more new clothes.
The items in Peaches' stores are pretty much all from Topshop or vintage. She has styled each photo of the garment she is trying to sell with accessories, intense stares, and model poses. Basically, it resembles a kind of bootleg look book. Charming but cheesy.
Meanwhile, those itching for a Topshop fix should check out the stores mega sale. It has everything you wish you would have bought a few months ago. Happy shopping.
I love your shop they call Top and several of the fashion trends that somehow make their way stateside every season. Kate Moss is cool, too.
And I value this little relationship we've slowly built together over the past few years.
