Old Skool Style...


Master Shortie is bringing it back! He's one of the hot new kids on the block and not only is he a fresh injection of talent into the British Urban music scene but boy oh boy can he dress! I'm lucky enough to have seen him in action a few times and let me tell you, HE IS AWESOME! His songs are a vibrant mixture of rap with electro beats and a retro-licious 80's twist, his style is yet again a reflection of 80's NYC streetstyle and his incredible energy levels are that of a 4 year old on crack! He is already the next big thing and his wicked sense of style makes us love him even more. Think rope chains together with geek-chic glasses, plaid shirts with puffa jackets in contrasting colours and retro Nike kicks in the most delicious shades!







His debut album ADHD is out in July and I already know it's going to be one of my "most listened to" this summer.


FYI you can pre-order his album ADHD now. DO IT.

Bewitching Knits!


Who knew knitting could be so darn cool?! Topshop's latest drop of witchcraft inspired sweaters has had me in a total tizzy these past few weeks! -You know you're in trouble when you don't buy something (TWICE!!!!), fall in love with it all over again on the internet, once more when u spot it featured in Look magazine and then spend the next week obsessively thinking about whether you should've bought it or not! Lucky for me I managed to get the last one of these bead embellished sweaters in my size (and in the black colourway). They're also doing them in a beautiful bold orange which will look fabulous with a tan!

I'm also LOVING this Rodarte inspired sweater which my favourite Olsen twin, MK, has already been snapped in!

Zim-Zimmer!


When it comes to stylish swimwear you won't be shocked to hear that the Aussie's know a thing or two... after all they have a year round climate of sun sun sun that anyone living in England would kill for, not to mention a million miles of sandy beach and quality surf. Sydney-based label Zimmermann (launched in 1991 by sisters Nicky and Simone) is the hottest label to sport by the sea this summer. Each piece oozes sophistication with it's striking prints and retro shapes.

She's SO HOT right now...


I have forever been a Duran Duran fan (after all I am a child of the 80's) & have forever thought that Yasmin Le Bon is one of THE hottest models to have ever graced our planet, (-plus she's Persian... Me biased? As if!). So you can only imagine how totally ridiculous their beautiful daughter Amber must be?!

She started modelling at the tender age of just 20 months old, joining her mother on the Chanel catwalk...


She's currently the face of River Island's summer campaign...


And is snapped below in these exclusive pics, promoting Graduate Fashion Week:




Amber Le Bon... we salute you!

Take it to the MAX-I


They've been a holiday staple for the past 3 seasons but the maxi-dress is very much here to stay for Summer 09. What's not to love about it?! -It exudes effortless summer style, keeps you cool whilst your looking hot, suits all shapes and sizes plus no one will ever have to know if you're in between leg waxes!

French Connection are doing some amazing ones this season in bold colours and eye-catching prints:

Fiona Paxton


I first encountered these beautiful beaded necklaces during a PR internship. It wasn't hard to promote them as I fell so in love with the designs and beautiful beading that being passionate about my product became second-nature.

They've already been spotted on Drew, Isla and the Duffmeister...







And the high-street knock-offs are out now so you know it's gonna be a big hit with the kids! - As they say... immitation is the biggest form of flattery... (still... i'd fork out & go for the real deal!)
