Guest Blog: Spring Style For Your Big Day

Guest Blog: Spring Style For Your Big Day
Spring is here! Well, almost. At least the snow has melted and we’ve finally got temperatures in the double figures. Not quite t-shirt weather, but it’s getting there! Spring Style For Your Big Day Spring is always a busy time as brides step up their planning and start thinking about ‘the one’ – no, not their future husband (hopefully they’ve found him!), but their dress. I went along to the Designer Wedding Show to see the new trends...

Sponsored Video: Selfridges Womens Designer Galleries
It’s no secret that Selfridges is probably my favourite department store in the world. It’s not just the fact that I can spend hours navigating shelves of exciting tea and buying Pinkberry frozen yogurt in their Food Hall, or even losing myself in choosing Moleskine notebooks in the deliciously ginormous stationery department. No, it’s also their ongoing curation of some of the best fashion brands, and the ongoing development of their clothing...

Guest Blog: Glasses in Film 2012
Glasses have long been used as props in movies to create special effects such as ageing. At other times, actors and actresses have simply preferred to wear their glasses on the set when it’s been compatible to their characters. Glasses in Film 2012 Woody Allen is famous for his glasses but often shuns them when away from the set – just as he does with his latest cinematic effort, Nero Fiddled. Whether the characters have been a part of a big...

London Fashion Week A/W12 – House of Holland

London Fashion Week A/W12 – House of Holland
I thought I knew what to expect from House of Holland. The name ‘Henry Holland’ instantly conjures up neon t-shirts, logo print tights, and an endless array of fun but ultimately not especially sophisticated clothing. Easy to wear, enjoyable to look at, with perhaps not a great deal of artistry behind it, or any ‘concept’. Surrounded by a crew of models, DJs and general ‘faces of the moment’, the clothes got a little lost behind House... 

Menswear: Suits you Sir!

Menswear: Suits you Sir!
“Suits you sir” is definitely a phrase that can be attached to next season’s menswear. Being British I personally have a long standing love affair with the suit. This started around the time I began to appreciate everything that is ‘fashion’ in my life. So you can only imagine my delight when I heard such phrases being bounced around such as ‘the season of the suit’, I couldn’t wait to see what was in store. I can assure you I was...

And about time too. Fashion: Prints Vs Pastel Princess Yes, we’ve had the colour blocking but get that wrong and you end up looking more carrot than super hot and that’s never good. This time around, you’ll be pleased to hear it’s... 

Bourjois at Beach Blanket Babylon

Bourjois at Beach Blanket Babylon
Earlier in the week, Lady M posted about an event that Bourjois were putting on at Beach Blanket Babylon, Shoreditch (that’s quite a mouthful, by the way!) Being the Beauty Ed, I decided I definitely needed to pop down and investigate. The event itself was very pleasant – a whole room at Beach Blanket Babylon set up as a Bourjois pop-up shop. White walls and floors offset shelf after shelf of jewel bright eyeshadows and nail varnishes. Manicures,...
