The sun has got his hat on!

So with the warmer weather on it's way and a daily reminder from my bestest bud that we have just under 4 months until our holiday to Miami, I thought I better stock up on some stylish summer clothes! I love the short suits and wedges out at the minute. I intend to fit in with the super stylish beach babes of Miami!
Yesterday, I came across a small range of Chelsea girl collection in river island, I spotted this dress and couldn't resist! Perfect shopping outfit with  flip flops and shades :-)

 Anything the Saturday's girlie's are wearing at the mo is deffo getting the thumbs up from me!
Rochelle is definitely winning in the style stakes for me!

Matthew Williamson at London Fashion Week


The man himself!

Matthew Williamson showed his latest designs on the catwalk this week and I must say they are absolutely stunning! Each outfit bursting with colour and style- perfect for summer time. With all those bright and bold colours on display it makes me want a holiday more than ever! Hurry up sunshine and come out to play so we can bin the boring blacks and take some inspiration from MW and wear the colours of the rainbow!
What a dreamy dress!













If only I had a red carpet
event to go to!

This one  is my fave!

Perfect for cocktails and
a boogie with the girls!

Love this one!

Fashion and Textile Museum-London


SJP and Matthew Broderick
Entrance to the exhibition













My niece and I ventured south of the river yesterday to the Fashion and Textile Museum in Bermondsey to see the catwalk to cover exhibition- we wasn't disappointed! As you take a self guided tour through the exhibition, you see how the process takes place, from make up to dressing the models. There is a selection of pictures showing stars and famous faces from the fashion industry eagerly awaiting a catwalk show to begin. There is also a selection of dresses on display, which were all stunning. Here are a few pics from the exhibition. Get yourself down there to see for yourself. The exhibition is on until 25th Feb.

Are you lucky enough to be in the frow?


Louise Roe @ DVF
Today I'm looking at who is lucky enough (and stylish enough) to get a front row seat at the fashion shows taking place at the mo. My favourite style star is Olivia Palermo- always so stylish and looks great in anything and boy does she know how to accessorise! That girl would look great in a bin bag! Other regulars on the front row are the Olsen twins- although their style is not everyone's cup of tea, I think they look great (most of the time anyway). Here a few piccies for you to see who else is lucky enough to get a frow seat!!
