Clogsession!


Clogs are fast becoming everyone's new fave obsession - all it takes is for fashion's current darling, The Chungmeister to sport a pair of Chanel lovelies and the whole world goes stark raving mad for them! Now I recall a time, at the age of 12 when I really wanted some - patent orange one's to be precise... This of course passed after a month or two and then I looked at this genre of footwear as something that only dentists and nurses would wear - not to mention, with the advent of CROCS (ewwww) - unfashionable obese mothers who insist on wearing bright pink ones to match their 4 year old daughters whilst holidaying in the south of Spain - eeeek!

Having said that I now desperately want to get my feet into a pair for this summer. Here are a selection of my absolute favourites:

Fringed leather - Zara:


White buckle - Carvela:


Peep-toe buckle clog boot - ASOS:

Cute as a Clog!

Scholl for Fashionistas is a cool and quirky collaboration showcasing a most fabulicious range of clogs:




Hot foot it down to your nearest Kurt Geiger store to pick up a pair and be sure to check out their gorgeous windows...









How very summer of love and kitsch. Reminds me of my fave LA one-stop-shop Kitson! Peace and love man.

Hello Jell-O!
The sun has been shining all week long and I am in the mood for a HOLIDAY!!!!

As everyone in England knows the second the sun pokes it's little head out from behind the clouds we all go BBQ crazy, start living in flip-flops and hit the parks for the hope of catching a little bit of colour! As previously mentioned flip-flops are a true summer staple so here's my pick of the Top 3 Jellies:
Office - £10

French Connection - £18
Nine West - £45

The Outnet Sale
Booooooo I was not a happy bunny when I remembered that I forgot to register for the £1 sale! Just think of the bargains! Then again... maybe it was a blessing in disguise as the much-anticipated sale in celebration of The Outnet's first birthday caused the whole site to crash and left many an angry internet-shopper. Now that would have been tres disappointing!


Hell... The weekend's here and you can still find some fabulous buys so who's complaining?! www.theoutnet.com

Countdown to Coachella!
If I had it my way I'd be on a plane right now so that I could join those pretty young things who are making a mass exodus to the Californian desert. Minor details include having a ticket and getting time off work, so don't sweat the small stuff. Here's the real checklist from head-to-toe:

Headband - check.



Feather Headband - Accessorize - £8

You can also pick up a great selection from H&M, Miss Selfridge or Forever 21 if you're already on the other side of the pond.

Ensemble - check.

Romper - Hollister - £34

Basically anything goes... I'm a fan of the fringed waistcoat over white vest top with denim shorts look.

Boots / Glads - check.

Double-buckle ankle boots - KG - £150
Lace-up sandals - Carvela - £95

And the piece-de-resistance - get yo' stunna shades on!

Two-tone sunglasses - Balenciaga - 150


Multi-colour shades - ASOS - £15

Simples.


I WILL be there next year.

The Leah Collection...

After the much sought after "Alexa" Mulberry have now launched the "Leah" which is totally my new lust-have piece of arm candy.

These totally capture preppy school-girl style with a chic edge. Choose from either duffle or satchel styles in classic hazlenut, striking fuchsia and subtle mushroom.


The small duffle in mushroom is my absolute favourite and it's the perfect complement to this seasons nudey trend.

My mum wants one just as much as I do so maybe I can persuade her to get one & then just nick it?!

My life in Fashion - Re-Cap.

Spring is ONG!


A charming evening hosted by Beatrix Ong at Liberty's. Eat cupcakes, YUM. YUM. YUM.




Find the white rabbits and win a pair of shoes. YES PLEASE. YES PLEASE. YES PLEASE.



Her designs are not only gorgeous to look at but oh-so-comfortable to wear - it would've been rude not to buy a pair or two...


Nicholas in Wonderland
These have to be the most whimsical shoes on the face of the planet and I am one lucky girl as I actually got to pop them on my feet! Inspired by Alice in Wonderland - Nicholas Kirkwood's done it again. A true work of art.




Lilo hearts Carvela

Lindsay Lohan was spotted buying a mammoth 9 pairs of shoes in Kurt Geiger Westfield. Later that week she was spotted strutting her stuff in them at various events:

BRIT AWARD's after-party in London


Cavalli Fashion Show in Milan


RIP Alexander McQueen


You will be missed l'enfant terible.


It's all about the Figaro - when I grow up...
I was traipsing down Walton St SW3 on Boxing Day and what a beautiful sight beheld my big blue/green eyes?! Alas...


This is what I want when I grow up please... to live in this house & drive this car. Thanks. Bye.

Kurt Geiger SS10 press day



This truly had to be one of the finest press days of the season. The Royal Suite at Claridges was transformed into luxury shoe heaven showcasing the season's finest footwear. Each room seduced you with a different trend story including Tropical, Ballerinas, Utility Chic, Nudity, Modernism and Stiletto.





VOGUE Fashion's Night Out

Henry Holland at Browns...



Hanging out with Pixie Geldof and Verity Parker from Vogue



It was a huge success and a great night was had by all - roll on next year's soiree!
