Shiny Fashion TV

January 25th 2007 13:23
It seems fashion advice is even more readily available these days, with YouTube afficionados offering answers to all your styling questions. My favourite of them all is William Sledd, who has revolutionised the role of the fashion advice columnist by video logging his style tips in a series of "Ask a Gay Man" clips. Following in his footsteps are Kim (a lovely Aussie sheila) and Gemma (aka the Catwalk Queen), who started Shiny Fashion TV a couple of months ago.

Kim and Gemma have created their very own Style Council, a two-woman team who answers questions sent in by members to Shiny Fashion Forums:



They also have a great segment called the £25 High St Challenge, where they attempt to create an outfit with just £25 (around AU$60):



They may not have William Sledd's pizzazz, but they do offer some helpful tips so they're worth a look!

Sisi,

I'm thinking of becoming a Fashion Advisor myself, and starting my own TV show. I just thought I'd let you know in advance, so you jump in first and review it. Here's a sneak preview of episode 1.

Oh, I wanted to call it 'The Almost Naked Fashion Advisor' ... (but had a few copyright problems, so I've called it 'Bent over the Kitchen Bench' ...

The presenter/host (that's me by the way) comes on, looking resplendent in his underpants, carrying a shitload of women's cosmetics, using his chin to prevent the pile of lippy's, blushes, foundations, lippy removers, blush removers, foundation erasors, etc, from toppling.

"Ladies? All those expensive cosmetics? Follow me into the kitchen (this is whispered to get the Ladies aroused, I guess).

I open the garbage bin, and drop the whole pile in.

"Yes Ladies just chuck them all out. I'm going to show you how to save money, and look sexy as, at the same time. I've prepared some lovely bolognese sauce. If you eat this erotically, in lip-smacking fashion? (I give a sensual demonstration of this. Lots of orgasmic tongue lolling and eye-rolling going on here).

CU of my lips. They fill the TV screen as I talk. It's obvious they are stained bright bolognese red.

"Seeeee? Ladiessss?" (I talk very sensually during the close up)... "See how it stains the lips, even better than lippy? "

There's an advert here (to let Ladies do their thing, I guess) ...

After the advert? I show them how to plunge their heads, face-first into a large bowl full of self-raising flour, and how, if you sprinkle a bit of water on your face first, it makes a great foundation substitute, and sticks to your face for days .. I've called it the Bobbing-Head Foundation *

That's all I can tell you at this stage ... I don't want to spoil the first show for you ... ***

Sisi,

How many times have I tried to convince you I know nothing about women? ... *

I wouldn't know the difference between a hairsrpray can and a vibrator ...

The last time I ran out of deodorant? I was at a woman's place ... so I snuck into her bathroom (ensuite too! YUM) ... and grabbed one of her femmy type aerosol cans ... anyway ... nothing came out ... how was i supposed to know she's used it all on me to make herself smell beautiful to entrap me (Yeah, it worked ... she trapped me alright ... in her female Venus Fly Trap ... and a scissor-hold around my back ... (I guess she liked World Championship Wrestling and was just showing me the moves ... It was hard to tell ... because she was screaming at the time and moaning and thrusting and groaning ... (anyway it doesn't matter ... I so loved the sound of her voice when she did this ... it didn't really matter to me that she was a bit incoherent at the time ... I got over it (and in it? ... ***

Fuck, where was I ... ? ... More scrolling up and down (and not just on the computer mouse either ... *** ...





Okay, finished scrolling now ... phew ...

Fuck, forgot again ...

Bloody compulsive scrolling disorder ... (LOVE IT!!!!!! ...

Oh, that's right ... so her spray on deodorant wouldn't work ... So I snuk out of her house ... went down to the Chemist and said, "Can you tell me if the batteries in this are flat?"

See, I told you I know nothing about women ...

Thank you David, I'm now thoroughly convinced! Oh and you could have saved yourself a lot of trouble just by sneaking out of her house, going down to the Chemist, and getting some of your own deodorant..

Sisi,

That's one of my other problems.

Not only don't I know anything about women ... I know nothing about life ...

If I ever get lucky enough again to be in a woman's bedroom? I'll bring a spare can of deodorant ... so I never have to leave her side ... and I just just lie there all night listening to her breathe as she sleeps ... (cos I love doing that ...

That's a nice thing to love to do David as for whether you know anything about life, you seem to be doing really well!
