Camilla Skovgaard – Accessory Designer of the Year
Camilla Skovgaard has been announced as the Accessory Designer of the Year at the Danish Fashion Awards. The award was created in 2008 by jewellery designer Georg Jensen. Skovgaard was born in Denmark and of her connection with it said: “As much as I am British educated and my business is established in London, in certain ways the Camilla Skovgaard shoe business does have a Danish heart – we operate on a Denmark bank and the team in London office sit on Arne Jacobsen chairs and table lamps from Louis Poulsen.”

Some Sunday Editorial Inspiration…
My Sunday inspiration came in the form of a glamorous sun-filled editorial for Vogue Italia – ‘Summer Glam’. Featuring the beautiful Michaela Kocianova and lensed by Greg Kadel, the editorial celebrates oversized accessories, gorgeous white bikinis and Kocianova’s divine flowing locks! For all those in the Northern Hemisphere, a seriously chic summer is just around the corner… sigh!

Fashion Feature
Chanel Resort 2012
I heart Chanel…
Taking place at the legendary Hôtel du Cap along the coast in Antibes, the Chanel Resort 2012 collection was a master class in elegant sophistication.
Dresses and fits evoked a twenties / thirties aesthetic – reminiscent of Coco Chanel’s own Riviera style. Chanel herself attended parties at Hôtel du Cap with icons Picasso, Dalí and among many others.
Jacket seams were styled close to the body while pristine white evening gowns cut flatteringly to the body creating a ‘pure innocent seduction’. Each style of clothing was represented within the collection – from swimwear to evening – making it practical and indulgent.
In attendance at the presentation, style icons and Chanel favourites – Blake Lively, Clémence Poésy, Caroline Sieber and Alexa Chung.
Seductive, Elegant and Timeless Chic… A Chanel Enchantment Of Course
