Babelcute: Sick Chic

A family is a unit composed not only of children but of men, women, an occasional animal, and the common cold.

And you thought your cold had gone with the winter?
The sniffles are back with a vengeance. The constant flicking between wet-an'-windy Spring, and almost Summer sunny days means most of us have caught a cold (me included...sniff, cough, curl up and die). Of course, only the most fashionable of the elite can pull of this trend with panache.
So here's how to work Sick Chic.

Please note: if you aren't fashion forward enough to have caught a cold, drinking too much tequila or eating questionable shellfish will also do the trick.

How I do It:
A better way of doing it:


Work your inner Marilyn, and look gorgeous without your make up.










Make like a catwalk queen and venture out in public in your fabulous pyjamas (Ashish AW10)






Time for a cat nap! (Find it here)









You need sleep! I don't think you'd need telling twice with these adorable Tokidoki pillow cases...







If all else fails and you're still feeling miserable, deny all knowledge of attempting to be chic, assume the foetal position under the covers and hibernate until you feel better.
