Just because it’s a Sunday doesn’t mean you have to slouch around all day in your sweats. Lauren Conrad shows us all how to do Sunday Brunch in style.
She has kept her look relaxed with hair swept into a low loose ponytail, a comfy boyfriend shirt and she’s remembered to [...]

Calvin Klein, Group Sex and Pedalling Jeans.

Now, where is the link between group sex and buying a new pair of jeans? I just don’t see the connection. I do however see an obvious marketing ploy to bring the Calvin Klein label back into the social consciousness.
A new Calvin Klein commercial shot by Steven Meisel shows a group of [...]

Only boys who save their pennies, make my rainy day…

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

One of the first music videos I can remember watching as a child was the Material Girl video. Madonna was going through her Marilyn Monroe phase and was inspired by the brilliant film Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.

Madonna has had many incarnations since, but the Material Girl is my favourite. I remember the pink dress and arm [...]

How can such an ugly sport inspire such a beautiful bag?

Wednesday, January 28th, 2009

The Fashion world has welcomed back the bowling bag with open arms. It has been wandering around in the fashion wilderness for some time but its new incarnation is bigger and slouchier than its predecessors. I found this beauty at Warehouse for £35. It’s the perfect day bag.

Grecian Dresses: Goddess Draping Grecian Style.

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

Grecian dresses are a thing of beauty; the way they hang, the reams of fabric, the way they make their wearer look so statuesque. They were also a key look at the 2009 Spring/Summer shows and we are now seeing Grecian style dresses filter their way through on to the celebrity circuit and the high [...]

The making of the Madonna / Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2009 Campaign

Saturday, January 24th, 2009

I just came across this interesting video on youtube, it’s the making of Madonna/Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2009 campaign
I think Madonna looks amazing for a woman who has just hit her fifties, but then she works damn hard at it. In the video she’s seen wearing the green feather dress that she wore to a Gucci [...]

Get the look: Megan Fox.

Friday, January 23rd, 2009

Megan Fox has Airport chic down; looking super comfy yet stylish as she gets ready to board her plane. I especially like the Norwegian, folksy style cardigan she’s rocking. Though it’s probably not so much of a hit with her male fans.

Holiday Fashion Sites: Looking hot in Winter.

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

For those lucky enough to be getting away for some winter sun, I thought I would share with you some of my favourite online holiday fashion sites.
It can be difficult finding a summer wardrobe on the high street at this time of year as the majority of retailers are preoccupied with winter sales. If you [...]

Beckham V Cole

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

Get a load of Victoria Beckham modeling for this month’s issue of Russian Vogue. Donning a military cap and gazing provocatively at the camera, Posh Spice looks every inch the high fashion, editorial model. Granted you can’t make out a lot of her face but it does make for a very striking shot.
Personally, I think [...]

The couple that models together stays together.

Brand Beckham is at it again, looking impossibly glamorous in this new Armani Underwear advert released today in Milan. Mr and Mrs Beckham have both done separate high profiled Armani underwear shots but this is the first time we have seen them pose together.
Victoria Beckham more than holds her [...]
