Yes ladies, Velvet is well and truely back on the fashion radar, who'd have thought it!
Are you all spent out already ladies, after all of the dreaded gift buying? and still need a killer festive party outfit (or two)?
Animal Print is really big again this season girls, and Giraffe print is a much classier alternative to usual leopard print, which can also be classy but more often than not, look a little bet lynch!
This gorgeous glitzy, shoulder embellished top £35, from Dorothy Perkins is a perfect festive after work drinks top, or for a Sat night in your local.
French Connection gets a little oh la la with this flirty little party dress!
Apologies for adding a little doom and gloom to your day ladies, but if any of you watched the awful BBC documentary on 'Bulgaria's abandoned children' by Kate Blewett that was first shown back in 2007 then you will have surely felt as saddened as i did watching those awful images of the extremely neglected children, i felt compelled to help by donating what i could to the charity http://www.tbact.org/ which has done wonders since 2007 in helping these children, but now there's an even better way that you can help, by purchasing this gorgeous Tabitha bag from http://www.helpinghandbags.co.uk/, set up by Melora Johnson after reading a report in Grazia (Bulgaria's forgotten children), she says that she was so distressed at the images that she saw, that she had to help, so she came up with the idea of designing a bag along with her friend Emma Ganderton, head of accessories design at Jigsaw.
Well, it's coming up to that time of year ladies, yes party season..whoo hoo!! and i say it's a good idea to start thinking about your party outfits now because in a month or so you'll have to start forking out for Christmas presents and nights out and if you get paid monthly then it's only 2 more paydays before Christmas! but don't panic girls, start your outfit shopping now and you'll be feeling all smug come December when you have all your party looks and cash to spare.
I've tried in vain to find a cheaper lookalike of the Balmain jacket worn by Cheryl Cole in her new video, but this was the closest i came ladies, this black tassle Military jacket is £55 from good old Dorothy Perkins, and it's fab, but if only it was red!
This jersey mesh top is so sexy and bang on trend, the structured centre pattern creates curves for those that are lacking and accentuates curves of those who already have them.
These Vivienne Westood for Melissa heart sling back shoes are soooo cute!
I love this on trend pure 80's glam star embellished jumper dress, can be dressed up or dressed down if worn with skinny jeans and flats, and at £35 it's not a bad price either, embellishment will be seen everywhere this ladies (and i really do mean everywhere) so this is a great piece to have for the season and it'll keep you snug and warm as well as looking super stylish!
I was so disappointed that i couldn't attend the YLB for Wallis launch party at the Sanderson a couple of weeks ago, (was holidaying in Jamaica, so can't really complain) as i've been looking forward to the Yasmin range for months now, But the lovely Nicola over at Acardia kindly sent me some pics from the night, Yasmin wore items from her own collection and looked gorgeous. guests included, Amber Le Bon (pictured above), Simon Le Bon, Tania Bryer, Lisa B, Alan Carr Duncan James, Gary Kemp, Lisa Eldridge & Robin Derrick, Tim & Malin Jeffries, Kelly Hoppen, Gerry De Veux , Pat Mc Grath, Sir Philip Green, Chloe Green, Yasmin & Simon Mills.
The long awaited Dita Von Teese second collection for Wonderbra, the 'Party Edition' is now in stores ladies, but you'll have to be quick if you want to get your hands on the gorgeous vintage inspired undies as they sold out so quickly last time.
Be a part of history and get yourself down to the special Gap store this September......
I am loving this soft jersey jumpsuit from ASOS, in one of AW09 biggest colour trends, Grey and the hugely trendy one shoulder style, this is so figure flattering and the soft movement of the fabric against your skin should make you feel extremely sexy and comfortable.
This knit dress is so cheeky, i love it!
Ok, we're all different shapes and sizes girls, which is why sometimes a generic bikini style just won't do. If your a AA cup your going to want a boob boosting style to give you that extra confidence on the beach, and if your a DD+ cup then your going to want support for those puppies and it's actually quite difficult to find DD+ styles, particularly if your small everywhere else. If you were to go into a highstreet store and try on, say a basic string bikini, you'd have to get a much larger size to accommodate your bust which would leave you with huge baggy bottoms, so you need to go for mix and match styles that you can often find in catalogues and online where you can pick say, a size 14 top and size 10 bottoms or go for a specialist DD+ style and brand like Bravissimo, figleaves are great for stocking DD+ bikinis, and probably the best place online to find DD+ bras too as they have a huge selection to choose from. http://www.figleaves.com
Wallis has become more and more trendy over the last couple of years, but the thing i really like about it, is that it's grown up trendy with a really sophisticated feel. The AW09 collection features lots of leathers, like this really classy leather dress (yes i did just say classy and leather dress in the same sentence), and lots of bling in the form of sequined tops, jackets, leggings and dresses, like this gorgeous silver slinky dress in the pic above.
