All That Glitters

Are you a Glitter Bug? Bring some glistening light into your wardrobe with sparkling sequins.

Like shimmering iridescent mermaids or twinkling disco dancers, sequins add an unmistakable sparkle to your style.

Seen on the Spring / Summer runways of Elie Saab, Christopher Kane, Givenchy, and more; this is a classic embellishment too pretty to sprinkle. Embrace these delicate metallic plates from head-to-toe. From this season’s must-have accessory – Miu Miu’s glittery heels (pictured top) to Elie Saab’s glamorously chic bejewelled evening gowns (pictured above); sequins are a timeless feel-go fashion favourite.

And sequins needn’t only come out at night. Case in point: Anna Dello Russo’s extraordinary emerald green Dolce and Gabbana Dress (pictured top).

Some Like it Hot

This Week’s Editorial Love…

Channelling Marilyn Monroe’s classic style for Madame Germany’s February 2012 issue, Annabella Barber is every bit the darling 50’s vixen.

Set against the picturesque backdrop of Hollywood, California; Barber wears divine looks by Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Miu Miu, Hermès and more. Love Barber’s dishevelled hair and bright red lip –  perfectly complementing the bold mix of prints and block colour. Charming accessories and some seriously gorgeous shoes complete the looks…

Enjoy some California dreaming! Happy Monday! xx

A Luxe Moment

Grandeur, Decadence & Impeccable Beauty… embrace a luxe new style- one befitting a golden Renaissance Queen

Entricate workings of sparking gold detail will make a striking statement for Spring / Summer 2012. Heavenly gowns with elaborate detailing, silk tulles and metallic brocades appeared on the catwalks of Alexander McQueen, Valentino and at Rodarte’s Cruise presentation in Florence.

Inspired by ancient Italian Religious Artworks, Rodarte sisters – Kate and Laura Mulleavy – created a collection which conjured ethereal beauty. The ten gowns each featured a sculpted torso and a long columnar skirt falling straight to the ground. The most spectacular of which was topped with a golden sunburst crown inspired by Bernini’s Ecstasy of Saint Teresa (pictured below centre). Strong, powerful and enchantingly beautiful.

For an ever-so-slightly more modest sprinkling of golden lustre, embrace bejewelled jewellery or glistening heels.
