# 1 – on the 15A
I get on, a little bleary-eyed, unsure of the fare. You’d swear I’d never got the bus before. A young woman gets on before me; she is Asian, with a headscarf, a long dress, a backpack. An older gentleman gets up out of his seat and gestures for her to [...]

A ha ha. I’ve never been so amused. I’m talking about serious fashion stuff over on Fash Mob, but right here I’m talking about how cute this thing is in its jumper (what is it? is it a dog? is it a plane?!!):

I always love when other people do these, so I thought I’d give it a go and give you some random information to digest over lunch. . . (I also submitted five facts to Conor Pope’s post a few days back.)
1. I was named after my mother’s sister, who died during the second World War. [...]

More than a feeling

I was sick and tired of everything. . . sometimes you listen to a song, over and over, for a week, or two, or three, and it makes you feel everything that you’re already feeling, but more – amplified.
Sometimes I dream about meeting a person who could do that, but then I imagine it might [...]

In the world of Web 2.0, LOLing at oneself is surely the first sign of madness

I’ve never been a huge fan of the acronym. Even as a child, it struck me as a lazy way of avoiding that extra syllable or two. Given my family’s penchant for post-dinner games, the word “syllable” has been as firmly engrained in my psyche as the words “Mum” and “Dad”.
“No, Rosemary, that’s two syllables [...]

That has to be the classiest line in any song, ever. Now I confess: I love this song. I may be losing my mind. I just did something totally crazy, and I’m feeling slightly unhinged. Not that crazy, like. Nobody’s dead. You’ll hear all about it over on Twitter. Go there, hang around, make some [...]

The fashion business of rosemarymaccabe.com has jumped ship – to Fash Mob. From this day forth, rosemarymaccabe.com will deal with, eh, Rosemary Mac Cabe (oh the joys!) while Fash Mob will deal with the rest of my ramblings, incorporating photographic inspiration, label news, style advice, new line launches, and so on.
Got feedback about the new [...]

When does a novelty become a nuisance?

On day 10 of my mandatory imprisonment, that’s why. Okay, I know; I could go out if I really wanted, but the other day I skidded all the way around a blind bend and, on New Year’s Day, my Dad came to collect me from the local village and we slid the whole way home, [...]
