Space Odyssey

What has happened to fashion in the lastfew seasons? Everything has been revivals of old trends thatwe are becoming oh to familiar with, so it was a complete breath of fresh air to see the spring/summer collections of Dolce and Gabbana, Fendi, Gucci and Balenciaga to name a few. It looks like fashion is heading towards a twenty-first-century space odyssey. Gleaming fabrics, sculpted metal and glamorous sci-fi creations point to a brave new design direction. Designs were like nothing we've seen before and were simply breathtaking. How wearable this new trend actually is, is another matter entirely. Forget wearable, I'm still swooning over it all......

Back to '94

The year 1994 is back and glourescent mini dresses, UFO overalls, and lime goggles are hitting the fashion scene. Leading the charge is Donatella Versace’s protégé, Christopher Kane. This trend, known as New Rave, is hitting everywhere from East London to New York’s Lower East Side. Anyone worth their loboutin's will be sporting new rave this summer......Coming in different variations, what will be your new rave summer staple?

Burning up a sweat

Despite the warm weather outside,celebs ahve been sporting rather 'hot' leather jackets.I know I should be using my money to start stocking up on cute summer dresses but one cute jacket won't hurt. I can't help it.....

What do you think about leather jackets? Bin 'em or keep them?

Everyones fallen for House of Holand

Holland is making headlines with his catchy wordplay T-shirts that both celebrate and poke fun at the fashion crowd. The tongue-in-cheek tees hark back to the eighties with their bold-lettered graphics (think Frankie Goes to Hollywood), but the rhymes have a fresh, insider tone.
This season, the 23-year-old riffed on designers, from U.K. darlings to Miuccia Prada. His Uhu Gareth Pugh and Get yer freak on Giles Deacon T-shirts landed on the London runway when each designer wore the other's to take his post-show bow. For fall, look for homages to his favorite catwalkers. I'll show you who's boss Kate Moss is bound to be a best-seller, but it was the chance to do a tongue twister for his muse, model Agyness Deyn, that really got Holland worked up.

Swimwear

Summer's approaching and this is that scary time of year when we're all searching around for that perfect piece of swimwear that flatters us in all the right places whilst being forgiving in others. I've been searchign for my summer staple and have fell in love with the Topshop cut-outs, which are a great balance between a bare all bikini and a reassuring swimsuit. Here's my fave cossies around....

The purple swimsuit is from Cia Martima and costs £95. I'm absolutely lovin' the warm purple tone that screams elegance and beachside glamour and work wonders to hide some deadly sins. The tones remind me of the tones shown at Lanvin and Bottega Venetta. The warm plum purple is the perfect colour to accentuate a golden tan. Team with gold jewellery for summer glamour.

The Black and green bikini is by Huit, Havanna Club Bikini and is a £69. Good for those with curves, the halterneck accentuates the bust, keeping everything in place regardless of how activeyou are on the beach. The green draws attention to the hips and the curves. This is an absolute fave of mine because it's so similar to the hite halterneck bikini Halle Berry wore in James Bond.

The black cutout bikini is a steal at only £28 from Topshop

The black cutout swimsuit is from Lisa Ho at £115. Cutouts are definately at the forefront in terms of beachwear. Perfect for tall girls, this style is great for tanning. Wear with large oversized sunnies and wedges and a cocktail in hand

Which cover do you prefer?

I'm lovin' the Vogue covers right now and even the older ones but I'm still torn as to whcih one I like best. What do you think?

Summer finally here

Summer's finally here, which means I can start stocking up on all the spring/summer goodies we all saw gracing runways worldwide last September. The show that I absolutely love and still am not getting bored of is the Chloe spring/summer 2007 show. Chloe's collection included lots of dresses inspired by the shift shapes which dominated the swinging sixties decade. It was a bit of a move away from the boho look we saw everywhere a few summers ago but still had that sixties element. Think Sienna Miller in Factory girl as Andy Warhol's muse Edie Sedgwick

Return of the Wayfarers

Ray-Ban Wayfarers are back. Since the company began reissuing the original shades late last year, young Hollywood -- from Ashley Olsen to The Killers' Brandon Flowers and Nicole Richie-- has embraced the classic chunky glasses.
Wayfarers were first manufactured in 1952 and championed by Audrey Hepburn (pictured), James Dean, and other hip tastemakers. The shades were also a fashion staple in the '80s, alongside big bangs and shoulderpads.

I don't know what colour looks best. I've seent the white ones on Drew Barrymore and Kirsten Dunst but the black are classic. Oh decisions decisions decisions!

Oops she did it again

I must confess that I am a devout fan of our Posh and I'm a self confesed follower of her every stylish move so I was disappointed to see her in this outfit as she went shopping around LA. I mean, who goes out in this for a stint of shopping? The top and the shoes are good but the skirt is not my cup of tea and the whole combo is too OTT and scream 'I'm trying to look on trend'. She gets it so right sometimes, but instances like this leave me thinking, Victoria why? Hopefully this was a little blip and not an outfit that will repeat itself in any other shape or form. What do you think; understated or high fashion druing the day?

Pap horse

The ever ready papparazi horse, Lindsay Lohan just 'happen' to be doing her daily gymin on the balcony in full view of the paps. How suprising! Like her gym stuff though
