My Mother’s wardrobe is almost like a mini vintage/retro shop. Her interest in fashion began in the late 60s-early 70s when she was just a teenager, and one of the best things is that you can find a mixture of western and indian fashion i.e Sari’s and traditional indian gold jewellery along with mini-skirts, pumps, [...]

Blog note: Blogging on about Fashion Week(s)
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Fashion, london fashion week, new york fashion week on February 4, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
I have decided that i probably won’t be blogging about New York or London Fashion Week, simply because i don’t have enough time to be doing it. Also, the majority of fashion blog’s will be blogging about both weeks anyway, as well as the usual editiorials.
If something cataches my eye though, i probably will give [...]

Gossip Girl may be on hold due to the writers strike, but the fashion from the show is definately influencing the world! The latest trend (has it ever gone away?) is headbands, as seen worn by the shows character Blair Waldorf. Thin or thick, with bows, with flowers, with gemstones or just plain, this girl [...]

Yay or nay?
This Square neck dress from the Lavender collection by Vera Wang can easily be worn as a simple day dress, or dressed up for the night with jewellery…….which in theory would make it a wardrobe essential right?

Further to my ‘back to school at Topshop’ post, i’ve managed to find even more of a school type blazer.
This Burgundy Stripe Blazer from Peacocks is certainly inspired from Balenciaga but without the price tag!
I can’t really make my mind up about it at the moment in regards to its quality and if it is [...]
Romantic Prep trend at Dorothy Perkins

The romantic prep trend has actually been around for quite a while (some call it the school girl look) but the news is it’s set to take off in a big way for 2008. Since it’s the new year im guessing quite a few us are short of cash, but do not despair Dorothy Perkins [...]

Ok so they may not be as glamorous as Dorothy’s red ruby slippers in ‘The Wizard of Oz’, but i seem to be lusting after Cinders in red from Ted Baker. Now i must admit that i already have this pair in black and they are very comfortable to wear. Would it be wrong to [...]

The January sales are well on there way, so why not pick up a few bargins that can be carried into next season?
First up is this Jersey t-shirt with ribbon by Hanii Y, it seems as if bows are the lastest trend ever since ‘Gossip Girl’ started, so if your feeling inspired by Blair Waldorf [...]
