Mom-Repellent: S&%! my Mom says about How I Dress

Ever wonder how your mom feels about how you dress? Fear not, my mother is happy to let me know and I will blog about it for our enjoyment.

DISCLAIMER: she is aware that I am doing this and her inner Kris Jenner is pretty excited. 

On my Zara leather shoes, as I walk out of the house on my way to work. 

Mom- "When did you get those shoes?" 

Lucy- "in London in April. I've worn them at least 12 times"

Mom- "they're so... Clunky" 

Lucy- "what does that even mean? They're from Zara" 

Mom- "Zara makes clunky shoes..." 

I still wore them even though I am fully aware of the fact that she thinks they are "clunky". 

Stay tuned for more mom-repellent posts! Please share any funny stories you may have!

Friday Fun: Can you spell Gabbana?

We laughed as the adorably clueless Andy Sachs takes her first message as Miranda Priestly's assistant in the fashion classic "The Devil Wears Prada" as she asks the person on the phone how to spell Gabbana, and although its comical the truth is a lot of us have no idea how to actually pronounce some of our favourite designers names.

Luckily i-D, the fashion magazine, has come to our rescue with this amazing video of fashion house pronunciations.
