Florence is that you?!!



Florence Welch is on the cover of Vogue Japan's October Issue... And I hardly recognised her!! I think she looks fabulous in this androgynous styling. It's so different from her usual look of long, flowing, wavy hair with feminine, floaty dresses, but it gets a big thumbs up from me! What do you think?


The Florence we're more used to seeing..

Official Kate Moss and Jamie Hince Wedding Pictures!!

It was one of the most highly anticipated wedding's of the year, on the 1st July 2011 the marriage of Kate Moss and Jamie Hince took place. With Kate being the world-famous stylish supermodel that she is, and Jamie being the rock 'n' roll frontman of band The Kills, this wedding was bound to be a fashionable affair. And it certainly didn't disappoint! Of course I'm sure by now we've all seen sneaky pictures of the wedding in numerous magazines, but the official photographs (taken by Mario Testino - friend to the bride) are being showcased in the September issue of US Vogue. In the accompanying interview Kate talks about her beautiful dress which she worked on together with designer John Galliano.
After reading snippets of the interview it makes for a great read and the photos are truely gorgeous! I'm off to get my copy A.S.A.P!!!

"Let them eat cake!"

I've just spent a very lazy afternoon (no change from any other but hey! It's the holidays!) watching one of my favourite films, Marie Antoinette. I love everything about the film from the gorgeous fashion, beautiful French scenery, fabulous hair and yummy cakes to the amazing soundtrack. Kirsten Dunst plays the ill-fated queen brilliantly and I think Sofia Coppola's directing makes for a stunning film. It portrays the lavish, decadent and luxurious lifestyle that Marie Antoinette lead which ultimately lead to the demise of Versailles, but I find it hard not to like this sweet naive Queen!

Wish I was here...


Ahhhh... How gorgeous is that?! Santorini in Greece is somewhere I would love to go. I love the stunning white, blue-domed-topped buildings and that amazing deep blue sea. Bliss.
Instead, I'm stuck in Yorkshire. Now don't get me wrong I love my home county, but when everyone else is jetting off to exotic and exciting places it does get kinda depressing being stuck at home. But hey, a girl can dream! So this is a bit of an 'escapist' post for me, the fashion I'd wear if I was a glamorous globetrotter! (I've also found a few high street items for budget not-so-glamorous me, sigh!).


I love the floppy hats that are everywhere at the moment (as seen big and bold on the Prada catwalk). I also like the idea of just casually throwing a light knit over a bikini, it looks very chic I think!


Gorgeous. I love the beautiful shade of blue used in the outfits above, and when combined with the white... Stunning!! (And dontcha think I'd coordinate with the landscape of Santorini?). Top the look off with gold cuffs and bangles and a pair of gold strappy sandals and voila! A glamorous chic holiday look. (FYI, the photos used were featured in Vogue Paris editorial 'Paradis Bleu' photographed by  Cedric Buchet). 


Diane Von Furstenberg's Resort 2011 collection had some great looks for a holiday. I love the retro feel of the stripy bikini teamed with dark denim shorts and the knotted shirt with patterned shorts. And I want need the abstract print shirt that is teamed with a gorgeous white swimsuit. Hot pink lips, beachy waves and highlights finish off the look.


Etro Spring 2011 Ready-To-Wear


Missoni Spring 2011 Ready-To-Wear

Some lovely prints from Etro and Missoni that would look gorgeous in the hot sun.


These photos from Elle Mexico's July's issue are beautiful! I love the bright colours used and the luxurious look of the outfits. The ethnic and tribal hints just make it all the more gorgeous! Love love love!!

Oh and going back to my dream holiday, fantasy Me is dating David Gandy (yes I know he's going out with Mollie from The Saturdays but don't ruin my dream!). So yeh, this is what I'm holidaying with.. (I wish!!).


Mmmmmmmmm.
