Kate Moss is Getting Married
So tomorrow is the day that Miss Moss becomes a Mrs and this is the dress I’ve been waiting for. I mean I was beyond exited for the royal wedding, but isn’t this a royal wedding of some sorts? mossy is most defiantly fashion royalty in my eyes. I can’t wait to see what she wears! There are rumours that the designer is still Galliano but it will be his boyfriend who is oversees the...
Paris, Fashion, Couture, Oh My!
So this morning on the tube was a little better than others, today is stylist magazine day and their theme/inspiration this week is Paris! What an amazing read, this week there is an interview from Mr. Fashion, Karl Lagerfeld. There’s tips on shopping, eating, sightseeing and the most amazing spread of couture gowns, I just about nearly missed my stop. I’ve only been to pairs once but I’m in...
Ibiza!
So this year’s Ibiza trip is going to be a lot different from last years for one, no men are allowed, and I’m going with the GLAM SQUAD! My sister and the girls, we usually have our yearly holiday in the super glam resort of Marbella, where lip gloss and high heels to the beach isn’t out of the ordinary! But Ibiza is different, any look goes on the white isle, and Saturday this year is going...
Lilly Wore Chanel
Lilly Allen did wear Chanel on her wedding day! She did hint that Lagerfeld would be designing her Wedding gown at Chanel’s Paris Fashion Week show but ended up wearing a Delphine Manivet dress instead. She revealed all after Lagerfeld uploaded an image of Lily wearing the dress he had designed, along with a sketch. The dress is absolutely beautiful and I’m secretly very happy Lilly ended...
A Day Out On The Bikes.
Summer is here and that means me and my trusty little Roadrunner is back on the road. My bike is ace, it’s a small fold away bike, the wheels are tiny, it weighs a ton and I’ve to peddle ten times faster than the Swede just to keep up with him on his super fancy fixed gear bike, but I love it. My bike is called Roadrunner I got her (yes her) from Portobello Market for 45 quid, She was designed by...
From Brixton to Portobello and back.
So Saturday night was a bit unplanned, me and the Swede didn’t know if we were going to end up going out or slobbing on the sofa all night. But at last minute we decided to get up, get ready, and hit west London. So I had to find an outfit sharpish, and what found was my black, bat winged, Abba style dress that still had the tags on it from when I bought it five months ago, but felt too fat to...
Royal Ascot 2011.
Each year, well for the last two that I’ve been working at my company we have had a summer trip/day out to the Royal Ascot Races, last year I made the mistake of wearing the most stupidly high heels that are easily the most horrible heels to wear, so this year I went for comfort and style, with a maxi dress, wedges and a floppy hat…..very 70’s, very easy, very comfy. I also for once tried...

Twilight: Bella Swans Wedding Dress.
Twilight, my new obsession, well not new really it’s been my obsession since the first film came out and I fell in love with Edward Cullen played by Robert Pattinson. So being a book worm I had to read every book, and when I did I couldn’t put them down and found myself staying up all hours trying to get to the end! As all twilight fans know Bella is to marry Edward in the next film and it has...

On Sunday after visiting family over at Hampton Court in Surrey, me and the Swede decided to go for a little explore of the village and were very surprised at what we found, two of the most amazing vintage/antique shops just there on the high street. An unknown little treasure trove of trinkets to explore, and explore we did!

Could This Be The Bag!
Recently I’ve been searching high and low for a new work bag. My Mulberry Hobo is old, my Alexander Wang bucket bag gets very heavy and is not really big enough I spied a lovely marc Jacobs bag but didn’t like the dark colours, so it became a toss up between the Mulberry Alexa and the Mulberry Tillie, the only thing knocking me off, is that almost everyone I see going to work in the morning has...

In July this year I’m hitting the white isle again! But this time it’s not with my big Swedish raver, I’m going with the girls! and this lot are my group of GLAM SQUAD GIRLS! So although ill be sticking to my own more laid back, style throughout the day, I’m most certainly going to have to crank it up a notch come sun set to keep up with these this group of ladies!!… For me one of the things...
Style: Kirsten Dunst
Kirsten Dunst is one of my favourite actress’s, she hasn’t really been around lately, but seeing pictures of her in Cannes reminded me of how much I really do like her as an actress and how much I LOVE her style. I’ve been reading and found some comments about her while she was in Cannes, that all you ever see her in are fluffy pink girly dresses, not in my opinion, yes she wears floaty...
