Desire for Public Desire

Desire for Public Desire


I'm currently buzzing over a new website called Public Desire, it's got fresh new  interesting styles at super low prices. I'm feeling the thigh high boot trend at the moment, and Public desire have some cool ones. I love the laced boots above ! I also really like the whole laced up high heel trend. Everyone from Kylie Jenner to Gigi Hadid is wearing them, I have my eye on some Balmain ones (in my dreams) but for now I'm investing in the Public desire equivalent!

A Crush On Tartan

tartan


A little crush for tartan
 
Tartan
Tartan Trend
 
This season Tartan is Back : Carpe Diem . Above are some outfits I put together . Whilst browsing through many a Topshop outfit I found this truly inspirational and hilarious sequence of Tartan rules . Here it is ....




Cast your mind back to 1995 – in a time when Valley girls were Californian, (not like, Welsh) – Cher, Dionne and Tai introduced us to ‘makeovers’, ‘buyer’s remorse’ and ‘Baldwins’.
So much more than just your A typical teen drama, Clueless made a totally important cultural impact for decades to come – changing our vocabulary and the way we dress.
Adapted from Jane Austen’s Emma –  it made Brittany Murphy and Alicia Silverstone household names and gave us all the
tartan we’ve ever dreamed of. The Scots may have invented the fabric, but it was the girls of Beverley Hills High who made it their own. Mis matched, colourful, co-ordinated – bliss.
Now as fashion short circuits back to the ‘90s and there’s more plaid,
tartan and check on the streets than you can shake a stick at, let’s re-visit what Cher & co taught us about how to wear it:
1: Be fearless, tartan is not to be worn sporadically

2: Think matchy matchy, i.e. tartan on tartan on tartan.


 
3: Coordinate head-to-toe tartan with your best friend’s head-to-toe tartan.
 
4. Work out in tartan.
 
 
5: Tartan is acceptable for both AM and PM.
 

New Year , New Nike's New You



So its New Year .... new diet , new fitness regime , new you , new boyfriend , new clothes , new, new , new , new . EVERY YEAR . Anyway this new year I am actually embracing the whole New Year Nonsense after a highly calorific Christmas .

Nike Air Max
 
Christmas cake , Christmas cookies , Christmas calories - Horrifying !

 I am starting a Sugar Detox - you can eat anything and everything that doesn't contain added sugar . Fruit is allowed of course but all the other stuff is strictly off limits . There is such a thing called sugar withdrawal symptoms that can lead to craving , fatigue and depression but its only for a week and you can kill all the supposed symptoms with eating many other natural delicious foods . After all is it really good for you to have all those chemicals in your body ?  See you in a week with these results !
What is the point of killing the calories if your lounging about on sofa all day doing no exercise . You don't get off that easy . Above are my favourite Nike Air Max's . They are great to power walk in and are super stylish . Did I mention how unbelievably comfy they are ? They might even give you some inspiration to get fit .  Below is an outfit I have paired them with for a casual look after the gym or going out .

Best of luck and Happy New Year !

eos

eos!!

They are organic , they are flavoured and keep your pout ever so soft , they smell amazing and they are all that a girl could ever ask for .
The packaging is sleek , the scent is sweet however the American prices really good  (I have seen them for $2.99, which I is about £1.80). However, since they are hard to come by in the United Kingdom, prices are a little crazy. However if you are willing to pay £14 on amazon for one of these beauty's you won't regret it !

Cow Print Shirt

This Cow Print Top from Topshop <3 I was so fond of it I had to put it in an outfit !
I saw this Micheal Kors Bag in Miami and just fell in love . IT IS PERFECT (and also £995) .

Lavander Sky

lavender sky.
There's no denying it: Arresting shades of bright orchid, mauve, plum and eggplant are delivering purple power to us . It's definitely a bold, get-you-noticed look, but it's also a super-fresh take on the requisite browns and berries we all see eeeeevery autumn. So, if there's one trend on its way to luring you in, this is it!

Eyes: Whether you go with shimmery lavender effect or a dramatic pigmented plum, try any of these tools for casting a purple gaze.

Betsey Johnson SS/14 NYFW

Recap: Betsey Johnson SS/14
Getting a daily dose of Pretty, Hip Hop, Rock and Roll is a must for Spring 2014 because Betsey Johnson advised it .

The models walked down with cotton candy pink hair to the soundtrack of "Pretty in Pink". Ice blue, grey lipstick with matching eyeshadows. All the models wore large hoop earrings, chains and two finger rings with a simple "Betsey" going across.

Key style points:

Dose of Pretty: soft pale pink, ruffles, floral dresses and fluffy tulle dresses in white or pink.

Dose of Hip Hop: white on white , leopard prints, fingerless gloves, tulle

Dose of Rock n' Roll: attitude, black on black, encrusted sunnies with some bling.
 

I LOVED watching this show It was pure Over The Top Fashion fabulousity  .

London Fashion Week - Burberry Prorsum Spring 2014

London Fashion Week - Burberry Prorsum Spring 2014

 
 
 
 
 
I loved Burberry at London Fashion show . The 'macaron colors' made  for a sweet collection with no hard edges . The English lace was everywhere and it worked well.
Burberrys outerwear featured beautiful lilac and mint lace coatdresses, some of them cinched with thick bejeweled belts or adorned here and there with sparkling rosettes.

After a few seasons of studs, buckles, and the rest .... this soft sugary collection is much welcomed !

Above is my outfit inspiration

How To Mix Highstreet And Designer

Version

Today I went for a smart ,chic ,simple sophisticated outfit that looks expensive but with the T-Shirt for £22 and the skirt for £18 - BARGIN . However this outfit looks like it does because the expense is invested in the accessories (CELINE BAG) as well as the big shades and statement necklace paired  with a matching iphone . I love a bit of mix and match because if you mix high street and designer you will never know if it is high street as long as you get the pairings right .

The key point to mixing high street and designer is that you buy one highlight designer piece like this Celine bag . Make sure that it is so beautiful it's worth every penny . Many High street shops are basically producing fabulous versions of the designer looks we see on catwalks and can be produced in  less than 2 weeks . When I go into shops I very often see Prada and Gucci repeated a lot !

With such a beautiful REAL bag and an equally as beautiful take on the real runway stuff you will look a million dollars .

And that is how to Mix High street and designer .



White tee / Maxi skirt, £22 , £18/ Christian Louboutin black satin pumps / CÉLINE bag, £3025 / Curb chain necklace / £16 Hermès hat / Victoria Beckham glasses / Iphone case / Calvin Klein foundation, £15 / L'Oréal Paris voluminous mascara, £13

After a while away , I'm back blogging ! With a new name and new Fashion Angle .

This week I am loving 'Feline Meow' Jumpers . They are a take on 'Celine Paris ' Jumpers but personally I think these are much cuter !

The weather this weekend is a little bit rubbish for Summer so this lightweight jumper paired with jeans and some bright wedge Flatforms = perfect chilled but stylish weekend outfit .

This Summer I think that the pastelly colours are creeping back in and I particularly like these ones from Butter London.
