New trends, keeping them checked!

Hey guys,

The sun has decided to grace us with its presence today in London - I am still wearing a cardi as the wind is chilly but the gloves have gone at last!

I'm just off to the high street to get some clothes for work experience next week! I've got minimal make up on and am wearing a smile - it's amazing what the vitamin D in the sunshine can do to a person.

So I have been taking a couple of days R&R as per my head of college's advice and so have been flicking through the fashion magazines. Within the pages I see a very interesting time ahead for fashion (metallics at Burberry and check board patterns at Louis Vuitton are just two standouts) which will certainly shake things up and spring us into action.

My question is how well these trends will enter the high street? Sport luxe is still the measure of how well the designers can achieve a catwalk trend and even then only a few stores have got it spot on.


It is very hard for instance, to wear an entire brown checkered dress unless you are a model or a shiny mac unless you are a mini Beckham. I have a terrible fear that a highly radical set of trends will look awkward against the safe pastels and nautical looks that traditionally live on the high street in Spring/Summer.

So here's to hoping for success and a shake up around here, because blimey do we need it!

Lots of luv,

Sorry Its been a while!

Hey guys,

I can only apologise for being really late in updating this blog! I have had lots of illness recently and spent a lot of last week in bed. However, now I have some minutes free I can update this blog. So a little summary:

• Alexander McQueen's last show took place in France this week. Apparently he was 80% of the way through completing this show at the time of his death. It was a fitting tribute to an icon. The dresses were stunning and very vintage. Definitely bang on trend!
• Fashion weeks globally are ending. What a shame but now we can go and buy all the latest trends when they filter down into the shops! YAY =>
• The Oscars happened. Lots of blogs about them. My highlights - Diane Kruger, Miley Cyrus and Penelope Cruz all dressed amazingly. Couture and a Oscar always looks good.
• Alice in Wonderland has taken over. Any Jewellery must be vintage and eccentric

Now fully recovered I have been going shopping and this is my latest buy >>>
It is from H&M and cost £20. I love it because its quirky with that punk studded look that is on everything now from Fiorelli Bags to Rihanna's Gloves. It's grey which is a staple colour for any girls wardrobe and will go with most colours! I will team it with a tee from my extensive collection and my grey skinny flares for the classic rock chic look we all love!
Love you guys,
