Just thought I would let you all know that I’m hosting the Fabulous! Festival blog carnival next week. If you’ve written a great piece on fashion, style, aesthetics, beauty or shopping that you’d like other people to know about, submit it to me here! The best ones will be featured here on Monday.

Have you got a theme? (Give me a clue . . . )
It’s OK; I’m gonna go with “aesthetics” . . . Oooh!
No theme… um, write about wearing colour?!
less of a comment more of a question…when is to soon? I have just ended a dreadful relationship – great guy /terrible boyfriend truely awful until it ended now he is back to being normal which is great and we make good friends. thats not the issue the issue is ive met this great guy – we knew each other as kids and recently met again through myspace – he is lovely and gentle and romantic and sweet but it feels to soon even though he makes my heart smile – but i dont want to miss the right guy bc im still squashed but by the same token i dont want to take on something new before I find myself and re-inflate. we are both freelancers and both work silly hours and his job means I would still get lots of alone time and lots of with my friends time – anyone have any good reasoned advice…thanks Sarah
Sarah — That’s tough, & no one can really tell you the answer. Sounds cheesy, but you’ll know when you’re ready. However, my advice would be to stay in contact with him but let him know in no uncertain terms that you’re not ready. He shouldn’t feel like he is waiting around for you, because a) it could take months & b) by the time you’re ready for a relationship, you might not be so keen on him anymore.
I always think that if it’s meant to be, it will happen, so don’t worry that he’s your only chance at love. If you hurry it now out of fear that otherwise it’ll never happen, it will be an ugly scene. Might as well have a proper shot at it once you’ve pulled yourself together, yeah?
