Underage Drinking- wait until your 18!







It seems that the common place for teens of today is hanging around local corner shops attempting to use their older brothers i.d to purchase some smirnoff ice for them and their gang of mates.
It's plain obvious to me today who is and isn't 18 years of age. By growing what they call a beard or more commonly to us 'bum fluff' on their chin, they immediatly consider themselves to be a mature adult, usually 19 years of age (18 being too risky if questioned and 20 being a major push for them to pull off) and therefore clearly allowed to be able to buy alcohol without questioning.
With the amount of fake i.d going about today, it's almost as if cards are now available like postcards in corner shops for kids to go in and pick similar to how they would with pick n mix the year before. 'This guys got long, shabby brown hair, i can pass of as Robert Dungy'. The worrying fact is that most dodgey, corner shops are now not glancing once at these i.d's and children are getting away with buying alcohol at the age of 16, at a push maybe 17.



Shoes- love them or hate them






Shoes. Shoes. Shoes. OMG shoes.
You either love them or hate them, usually in this order too.
Appearing the most beautiful things you have ever clapped eyes on before, sat innocently with a halo shining above them on the Topshop shelves, there is no other option but to buy them, right there, no messing about.

However, these beauties soon turn in to what you would feel appropriate to call your worst nightmare when it comes to putting them to their intended use; wearing them.
Whilst some shoes prove impossible to even waddle out fo your bedroom door, others are always bound to cause embarrassing situations and accidents later on in the evening, after a few cheeky cocktails, when the alcohol tells your conscience it's fine to stride in your stilettos to the next bar.

Already causing such injuries and world famous stacks on the catwalks already, including the infamous fall of Naomi Campbell in THEM platforms, shoes are causing injuries all over the world.
