My favourite bits from AW12/13

Wed, 22 Feb 2012 20:30:54 +0000

Here are a few of my highlights from AW12/13 London and New York Fashion weeks, as you can tell Mary Katranzou was a big fave of mine!

Brighton Rocks

Thu, 05 Jan 2012 15:00:06 +0000

Being a student living in the heart of Brighton for 3 years I don’t know how I missed the SS12 Mulberry campaign shot by Tim Walker.

So far this is most definitely my favourite SS12 campaign, with a quintessentially British feel but still representing key SS12 trends Mulberry have really done it this time! These photographs are truly stunning. The oversized candy coloured sweeties against the Brighton pier create a modern yet retro feel to the campaign.

The Concrete Jungle

Thu, 05 Jan 2012 12:11:33 +0000

This is my one and only New Years resolution, to start blogging again. What better way to start the year by showing you a little of what I got up to in New York last week. I whizzed off on Boxing day for 5 days of shopping and being a tourist with the boy, staying in the amazing Hudson Hotel just off Central Park.

Today I almost bought...

Sat, 03 Sep 2011 20:22:13 +0100

Today I have had a lovely day celebrating 24 years of my parents being married…. god knows how they have put up with each other for that long. We went for an amazing lunch at the Harvey Nichols Fifth Floor cafe and for Watermelon Martinis at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, then a spot of “window” shopping. This was my hit list…

Topshop £20

Zara £29.99

Thank fully…. I resisted all of this (until tomorrow!)

Topshop £40

Save vs. Spree Wedge Boots

Sun, 07 Aug 2011 19:45:38 +0100

These are my wonderful, comfortable, stylish AND affordable ankle wedge boots from George @ Asda. They only cost me £16 (ok, they are not real leather/suede) but I love them, perfect with a summer skirt bare legs or with jeans and a heavy knit cardi.

I got these on Friday as an end of week treat, however if you are looking for something more expensive (not sure why you would as they are exactly copies!) you could have a look at Office or Kurt Geiger.

Kurt Geiger Francesco ankle boots
Also come in chocolate brown

£85 (ASOS& Kurt Geiger)

Obsessed

Sat, 06 Aug 2011 18:34:42 +0100

So everyone at work keeps telling me that I am obsessed with “lurex” at the moment. I think I can blame that on the stunning vintage, worn back to front and stiched up at the back cardigan Ellie Goulding glistened in at Somerset House in July.

Here is my fav, pitty its so much money. After splurging out on a House of Holland jumper a couple of months ago… and the small case of the Alexa handbag I can’t justify this purchase just yet!

Markus Lupfer £190

Lust List

Sat, 06 Aug 2011 16:56:20 +0100

Today’s lust list definitely includes these INSANE slipper shoes by Sam Edelman. Already widely recognised for his beautifully studded heels, Edelman has come out with these slipper shoes right on trend for AW11 ( £145 available from Asos)

Alternatively for a cheaper less intimidating slipper shoe there is H! by Henry Holland for Debenhams this AW11. For £25 you can have stylish feel whilst being comfortable at the same time, H! by Henry Holland always has brilliant designs and on trend ideas for each season available at Debenhams stores and online.

Fresh Start...

Sat, 06 Aug 2011 16:17:53 +0100

After focusing on music for a while I have decided to use this space to document new happenings in my world of fashion as a Fashion PR assistant it makes more sense and I have more to talk about…

Enjoy

ADELE... Shepherds Bush Empire

Fri, 22 Apr 2011 10:13:00 +0100

So… this is a difficult, can’t really find the words to describe Adele’s gig last night. From start to finish it was pretty mind blowing (as expected) Starting out in complete darkness and singing Hometown Glory and bursting on to stage with that famous cackle! Something was different though, she was sporting a whole head of curls, comparing herself to someone in Eastenders she assured everyone that it was her…

So she opened with Hometown Glory and went on to do an array of old and new songs. Favs included; Make You Feel My Love, Turning Tables and Set Fire to The Rain… at which point she described her inspiration for the song, something along the lines of rain in her lighter…

Anyways to round this off what a truly, absolutely FANTASTIC gig, shame about the chavs who decided to talk over half of it then thought it would be funny to throw drinks everywhere!

Never Fully Dressed...

Tue, 19 Apr 2011 18:29:13 +0100

So I know I have been using this to document my gig and festival going but I couldn’t resist a post on Never Fully Dressed! A lovely boutique hidden away on the internet and a stall at Spittlefields in East London, is full of wonderful surprises and exciting treats for every fashionista!

Newley released this morning on the NFD website and on ASOS marketplace were these beauties: pleated skirt £36 (comes in mint green, watermelon and soon leopard and nude) Emerald button shirt £38.

Skirt here : https://marketplace.asos.com/listing/skirts/watermelon-pleat-mini/117510

Perfect for work or festivals this beaut, Crochet trim poncho £45.

No need to get rid of the knits yet! It may be nearing 25 degrees in the sun this week but it is only April and it’s bound to get a bit chilly soon. Instead of going for drab dark colours grab a NFD cream cardigan £28 to keep warm on spring evenings!!

Nobody's Perfect...? seems Jessie J is to most people

Sat, 16 Apr 2011 15:10:00 +0100

Mad Hatters Tea Party

So Thursday saw the first official showing of BBC Sound of 2011 sensation Jessie J! With an Alice in Wonderland inspired video recreating scenes which resemble the mad hatter’s tea party and issues with time and clocks, the Nobodys Perfect video is certainly a production to be proud of!

It seems as though faux fur will be in style again this winter…Ahead of the fashion trends, Jessie J wears a Topshop Unique AW11 dalmatian inspired coat with is the striped down to a candy cane-esque red and white jacket from Moschino. Jessie’s high-waisted black hotpants are from Millie Cockton which go perfectly with the elongating vertical stripped tights which she wears are from Jonathan Aston. (Buy them at MyTights.com here http://tinyurl.com/6ywudu2)

Topshop AW11 Unique Dalmatian faux fur coat

From red “doll” hair in Price Tag, Jessie J has moved on to trying a bit of blonde in Nobody’s Perfect! Experimenting with a statue of Liberty-esque look which strangely works well in the video!

But she’s back to black in the scenes which appear as though she is frolicking around in oil in a bikini. Since Jessie J has taken on the music scene in the UK and now is doing even better in America, there are a stream of girls who would admit to having a “girl crush” on her…. this video definitely won’t put them off!

Thumbs up to you Jessie! Brilliant video and powerful song!

ALMOST pee-d my pants... uncontrollable excitement

Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:17:54 +0100

Stomp stomp I've arrived... Shepherd's Bush o2

Wed, 06 Apr 2011 17:02:38 +0100

I first saw Jessie J when she appeared on Jools Holland and was NOT a fan…. hypocritically I have done a full circle and would now go and see her when ever I have the opportunity. Last night was that opportunity, Shepherd’s Bush Empire was packed out, completely sold out! As usual Jessie J put on a fantastic show, interacting with the crowd and singing exceptionally! Was surprised/sad to see that her usual guitarist Ben was not part of it all but her band were amazing! It is clear to see that when it comes to fashion Jessie J likes funky tights, catsuits and last night was no exception!! Opting for high waisted shorts and a mesh corset top she wowed the crowd for the entire set! It must be such a good feeling for the 23 year old to finally be recognised and doing what she loves… not to mention her name in lights!

Can’t wait for iTunes festival, Lovebox, Glastonbury and V festival this summer promises to be a good’un!
