Where has all the Glamour gone?

Whilst we sit curled up on the sofa, typing to you at Glitterditch HQ, Audrey Hepburn is in the corner, talking to Fred about Cat and the 'Mean Reds'.

It's got us thinking about where all of those wonderful women gone. Instead of Audrey Hepburn, Marilyn and Grace Kelly, you're left with... Amy Winehouse, Posh Spice and Britney.

Instead of Cary Grant and James Stewart you're left with Russell Brand and Pete Doherty. How inspiring.

Does this scare anyone else? Is Glitterditch being too nostalgic and old-fashioned? Maybe, but wouldn't you much rather get dolled up and be all glam like Holly Golightly, instead of looking like a stripper who forgot to put her underwear on? You see our point.

Something changed and we don't know what it was. But we do miss the days when Tiffany's was a classy jewellers. Now it just appeals to chavs and their bling.

So instead of shaving all of our hair off, getting arrested and looking like a trussed up chicken, we're always going to try and be classy. We're going to dress up whenever we can. We're going to have fun without leaving a train wreck behind us. (Most of the time.)

And if we can do it with one of those long cigarette holders, even better.
