Donna Karan brings back the trends that she first help create in the 80s, mainly draping and exaggerated shoulders. It’s a collection that you could imagine the designer wearing herself, and that is something that makes me love the collection even more. The main highlights were statement jewellery, fierce shoes, draping, shoulders, studs and belts. [...]

The sheer trend has actually been around for quite a while now, and it’s interesting to see that sheer pieces were still present in many S/S 09 Collections. The difference being that last year the fabrics were completely transparent, whereas now there seems to be a move towards layers and the use of alternative fabrics [...]

So since im in need of new clothes, and i seem to have a new addiction to dresses, i decided to place my first order with Net-A-Porter! I won’t even attempt in trying to photograph the dresses since my camera is so rubbish, so i will just post the site pics instead (sorry!).
Both the dresses [...]

I never actually knew that Pringle did bags until i came across this Pringle of Scotland Izzy Courier Satchel over at Net-a-Porter. I love the fact that it is logo-less and very simple in design. The satchel is made of patent leather with silver-tone stud detailing, and comes with adjustable straps to be worn on [...]

Out of all the collections which i have seen so far, this has to be my favourite. Luella’s S/S 09 Collection is fun, colourful and youthful. When i first saw the first few pieces, the following words came to my mind (and they are perhaps the best way to descibe the collection)………..candyfloss, ladylike, granny chic, sweets, [...]
Topshop Short Lace Glove

Lace is a huge trend for this F/W (think Prada), but if your not too confident in wearing a lace dress, skirt or shirt, why not start with something small like this Topshop Short Lace Glove.
They don’t seem to photograph that well, and since they are £25, it would be best to check the quality [...]

According to the reviews of this show, it’s supposed to be ’sporty’, but i don’t understand quite why (or maybe i’ve just seen too much chav sportswear recently).
Anyway the latest Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti collection, certainly looks comfy, and i can imagine myself floating about in these pretty earthly pieces.
It’s nice to see a change [...]
