Champions League Final

The best and most stylish manager in the world. There is nothing else to say...

P.S. My friend informed me of a recent Mourinho sighting at the Sloane Street Chanel store. He apparently spent thousands of pounds on his amazingly lucky wife... How I wish I had been there. Arrogance, Looks, Brains, Loyalty- he has it all and in like 4 languages.

World Cup ball skills

Now this is the year of the World Cup and as an avid football fan I am excited. There is always a World Cup fashion spread in one of the fashion magazine. They try to create more female interest in the players' bodies rather than the sport so they have at least one reason to watch the World Cup. Vanity Fair seems to have done the main one this year and have Dider Drogba and Cristiano Ronaldo on their cover.

I am estatic that Dider Drogba is finally getting the plaudits he deserves (I am a Chelsea supporter) and he is kinda hot. Ronaldo is... well hot it you cover his face at the moment. He used to look waayyy better. Maybe its because he's cheapened himself by appearing in the tabloids too often.

The shoot bascially shows several footballers representing their countries in tight flag underwear showing off their ball skills in more ways than one. I was dismayed to see that for England they chose Carlton Cole. WTF?!?! He isn't even that good and might not even be going. They should have put Rooney or Lampard or Joe Cole; Bent even. Anyone but him, but I suppose that Americans don't know much about football so it doesn't really matter. Kaka was there for Brazil but no Messi- the best player in the world. Some of the choices were bizarre- Muntari? Why? No Torres or anyone from Spain or France or Holland.

I was happy to see another Chelsea player i.e. Ballack and I rate Donovan more now he played so well for Everton.

P.S I am supporting England (until they get knocked), Portugal, Holland, Nigeria and of course Spain

I love Jose Mourinho

The 'Special one' really shone tonight with his 3-2 aggregate win over the best team in the world. Barcelona were beaten and I feel that karma has delivered justice. Last year Chelsea were denied by dubious refereeing by that madman, and so they had a harsh Bojan goal ruled out tonight. Oh well. I don't care. I'm ecstatic that Mourinho won and will be rightly described later today as a 'tactical genius'. However he did exactly what Chelsea did last year- parking the bus and keeping compact to stop Messi and co playing. His celebration was emotional. He courts attention and controversy but although he talks the talk, he can definitely walk the walk. Now he has the chance to win his 2nd Champions League. I, for one, really hoped Roman A watched this and questions why Jose wasn't given much time at Chelsea. This trophy would have surely been ours this year  if he had stayed. He came back to haunt us and destroyed us in the Champions League; he might do it again if he joins Man United or Man City which scares me. He built the Chelsea team playing today. That FA cup we won in his absence belongs to him. The Premier League we might win is his too. Inter will win the Champions League- they and him deserve it after playing and beating Barcelona over 4 games in this Champions League. This is why, whilst I am delighted for Mourinho's success, I rue the day we let him go...

NB Didn't he look fabulous tonight?

Wah Nails

For ages now I've been hearing  about Wah Nails. It's popped up in the glossies, on blogs and even a pop-up store in Topshop. So, when gazing out of the bus window on my way to Dalston market, I saw this:

I got really excited.

Later we all went in and it was fantastic. Quirky, intricate and incredibly detailed works of art on each nail with as much bling (nail gems) as one could desire. [Excuse my photos]

My personal favourites were the Diet Coke bottles, the flags (useful for the World Cup?) and the £90 gold studded nails. I think I might go back and get Chelsea lions on my nails if they win a domestic double.
