Alright, so its not a massively fashion orientated start to the new year, but I was utterly shocked to see the pictures of the young girls in The Daily Mail this morning (take a look at the url if you dare http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1242198/Youre-going-dressed-like-Snow-joke-did-.html).

It's been minus temperatures outside of late and these lasses are still running around in their micro-minis!? Not to mention the skyscraper heels they are using to tread pavements which may as well double up as the local skating rink.

Thank heavens none of our Brighton babes are this silly - we will remain wrapped up to the eyeballs in thick coats, hats, scarves and furry boots until the cold-snap passes thank you very much.
