Like I Give a Frock: Fashion Forecasts and Meaningless Misguidance
Authors: Michi Girl   

Meet Michi. She's sometimes stylish and sometimes tragic, but she always knows best. She's sharp and funny. (And maybe just a tiny bit opinionated.) She's just a shopping queen, weather-watcher and quite possibly the best advice-giver you've ever met.

Do you ever wonder when a baguette became a bag and and not just a piece of bread? (Fendi, 1998.) Or when it became acceptable to wear a tracksuit to the supermarket? (It didn't.) Fishnets at work? Evil sales assistants? The plague of the fat ankle? Michi has all the answers. And if you were thinking of buying a playsuit, just don't.
