She Said "Gucci This and Gucci That but, Can You Spot A Fake"?!

There's a luxury designer item which us females all NEED. Ok, ok, ok we admit it, we don't need them as such, we just WANT them badly. The Gucci flat has been seen everywhere from PTA Mum's to the girl at the Coles Deli standing next to us with her red basket slung over her Country Road loose knit as she taps her designer foot in waiting.  A post shared by Gucci (@gucci) on May 9, 2017 at 5:46am PDT These coveted iconic slides have our hearts besting with some serious fashion lust whilst the logical side of our brain is trying to rationalise how we can afford to eat for the month and still, treat ourselves?! It seems the Gucci slide is quite the addictive loafer, with die hard Gucci fans often sporting a pair in every colour and at around $700 a pair, it's quite the expensive fetish. But let's not forget the limit editions, those babies will set you back a cool $1200, but hey Carrie Bradshaw once said " Sometimes i would buy Vogue instead ...

Jeffree  went on a Snapchat rant where he concluded; "I'm just saying y'all, I'm so disappointed as a fan of makeup and I'm just done supporting people who are gonna treat people like that,"  Jeffree   continued. "I don't care who did unicorn what, when, where. I have a unicorn blood lipstick, should I start suing? Girl, spare me, it's makeup." It would seem that all is not fair in love and lipstick..

In recent years Cara's career has skyrocketed after show became the Chanel muse for none-other than Karl Lagerfeld . However, in recent weeks we have seen Cara transform in a different way. It would appear that Cara is almost regressing in a bid to show the industry in which she has grown in, that it is no longer living up to her expectations. Just recently Cara took to Instagram to unleash her opinion in two powerful photos. In the first photo she is dressed head-to-toe in Chanel for the Met Gala and in the second, she is dressed down in a sweatshirt and without makeup.
