Brightly does it

Flicking through interior blogs and online magazines for some colour-popping inspiration, I came across an issue of Elle Decor from January 2009 featuring Matthew Williamson's apartment. What else can be expected from the former creative director of the always colourful and bold Pucci.

Runway Faces

Catwalk observations generally surround the draping creations of designers sported down the runways of the world. Without speaking for others, my attention rarely falls onto the detail designers have adorned their models with other than their clothing. Enter make-up - something us window shoppers can actually emulate. 

Does any one know where I can find this nail polish shade?

The sound of church bells

I came across these beautiful Jeremy Scott fashion week photos via burntbutter (great blog to check out). The collection boasted body con, dog-tagged biker jackets and beautiful colours resembling cathedral windows. 

Scott's after party in New York saw cross dressers, costumes and dangling beaded glasses that tug on my 'I want to be there!' strings... To next year in New York...

Monochrome Lusting

I've fallen quite in love with Gareth Pugh's two-tone wedges. Granted, I fall for most wedged heals, but this time its different...

Spike my crown

The headband entered our radar as a boho accessory introduced by the likes of Nicole Richie and Mischa Barton. The headband has evolved past this as most do when they grow up, and has adopted a more edgy stance that the catwalks demand. What better way to do so than by covering itself with the undying craze: spikes.

Comfortable Comfort

Stolen from Vogue's blog, I am in love with US Marie Claire style and accessories director Taylor Tomasi's multi-buckle boots and trousers that I still can't quite work out. Perhaps black shorts over tracksuit bottoms would do the trick? Any attempt to dress in comfort.

Can any beauty bloggers out there think what shade this could be?

Bloted Footwear

Clogs seem to be taunting me with every magazine turn I have made in the last few months as they are pictured on almost every page waiting for me to give in to them. When making their first appearance on the Chanel summer catwalks, I figured there could be no way this trend would filter down to the high street, best keep them in the barn.

Yet, the power of super-brands stand laughing as we the trend followers give in. Like a backpack, I am pretty hesitant towards this wooden shoe, yet in standard high-street manner, clogs have been transformed in various ways, and I am ashamed to say I have been sucked in...


I have a feeling the Kurt Geiger Hadassah's will soon be covering my feet

Shadows

I've completely fallen for Shawn Brackbill's photography. I came across his work via Susie Bubble's blog where he photographed her in her wonderfully whimsical way, directing me onto his website, and into his wonderful world of shaddows, blurrs and light. The photographs are from his New York Fashion Week collection...
