Hey!

Welcome to The Very Simon G. My blog has been going for nearly a decade, but there ain’t getting away from me just yet! Come in for fashion, fun and everything in between. Enjoy!

The 'Very' best bits from The Big Chill festival with Cocosa...



When I was invited by Cocosa to attend the Big Chill festival to get snappy happy on some well turned out party goers I was dubious. As mentioned in my Cocosa festival styling post, I'm not much of a festival person, but attending the Big Chill last Friday opened my eyes some what. For starters, I've never seen so many straw hats in my life, secondly the amount of boys with tops off who quite frankly shouldn't oblige was startling, and thirdly, and most importantly, the fashion spotting was VERY FUN!!

So that's what I did. My friend Nik and I headed down...sorry up to Herefordshire to (try and) join in the festival festivities. Or rather take pictures of people. Well dressed people, and not so well dressed people. I love Cocosa for sending me, I wouldn't have stumbled across these lovely revelers if not.

Be sure to check out Cocosa's Facebook page for more fab festival updates...

*Meet Jack, the first person who caught my eye. Loved how he
matched his very Oxford boating look with Hunters*


*Meet Madeline. She LOVES vintage, and every piece she wears here
is from thrift shops up Norf! The cardi and necklace are amaze!*






*Meet Rochelle. She was the most bubbly of the lot and had
"sooo much fun getting ready"... can't you tell??*


*Meet Emma and her Urban Outfitters leopard print cross tee
and those earrings and that necklace! One of my favourites!*



*Sarah's flying the flag for the plus size ladies in a fringed All Saints top
and Chloe rocks the spots in her H&M dress*


*Marina wears a dress made by her mum and a "cheap crappy jacket
from the States; and Mike goes a tad OTT in Pat Butcher style
coat, contrast stripe trews and bad hair!*


*Meet Maddy. It was her head gear and bumbag that caught my eye...
her waistcoat is from Portobello and was actually a Pakistani
work boy's jacket!*





*Meet Nik in his finest festival getup. Shorts from Vivienne Westwood,
shirt is vintage All Saints, scarf Alexander McQueen and light-weight
parka from All Saints. Finally a well dressed boy!!!*




Some more from the day...










*Dude... where's my car??*
