MISS OOPS FIXES ALL YOUR STYLE BOO BOOS


I have just discovered the wonder that is Miss Oops. This clever company has created products to make beauty and fashion blunders a thing of the past!

They really have thought of everything, from the deodorant mark removing Rescue Sponge to knickerless knickers (i swear!) and even a cotton boob tube to make low v necks office friendly.

BENEFIT = MAKE UP HEAVEN




I've been a huge Benefit fan for years now but I never cease to be amazed by their latest additions.

My two absolute staple make up items are both by Benefit - Dandelion blusher (perfect for pale girls like me) and BADgal lash for long, flirty lashes.

My lovely friends recently bought me the Realness of Concealness set. The kit contains lemon-aid to correct discolouration, boi-ing to cover under eye circles, ooh la lift to brighten the skin around the eyes, lip plump for a gorgeous pout and high beam for dewy skin.

At £22.50 this is well worth snapping up for summer for a natural and easy to wear look. Even better, it means you have all your make up essentials in one little box on a night out, easy to find in any bag, even after one too many cocktails...

I lo.v.e everything about this brand - from the retro packaging to the super fun product names. Long may Benefit's innovation continue!

PROPS TO CIARA

I was lucky enough to see The Circus starring Britney Spears at the o2 Arena this week.
When my pals and I arrived we were unexpectedly upgraded to VIP ringside which was incredible! Much squealing and jumping on the spot later, Ciara (BritBrit's support act) came on stage and danced her booty off.

With a great voice, killer bod, and wicked style - not to mention ridiculous flexibility - Ciara blew the o2 away.

Check out the back of her dress at the Met Ball earlier this year. That back! That hair! That silk and lace! LUSH.

So props to you Ciara, I am officially a massive fan.

MY BEAUTIFUL NEW DRESS


I snapped up an absolutely gorgeous block colour summer dress from AX Paris today.

Coral is one of the hottest colours of the season and teamed with muted colour blocks (cream and grey) the dress is going to be easy to dress up or down.

Even better, it was a bargain at only £22!

I'm planning on wearing it to a summer party and teaming with gold gladiators or coral wedges.

I'm loving their dresses so much I may also purchase this gorgeous coral dress with lace neckline: http://www.axparis.co.uk/index.php?_a=viewProd&productId=798 - yummy!

Pixie Lott - A fashionista in the making?

Yay, a brand new UK homegrown talented girl whose fashion off duty is just as fab as that when working.

The 18 year old singer shows off some serious pins in her video for the fantastic 'Mama Do' (link below) and doesnt dissapoint on a stroll around town either.


A classic blazer updated with youthful accessories, turn ups and pumps keeps her looking young and fresh without losing any style points.


Bravo Pixie, looking forward to seeing more of your wardrobe!


STELLA McCARTNEY TO DESIGN GAP CHILDRENSWEAR

This is going to be amazing. Fact.

I officially have another reason to be broody - Stella is going to turn her hand to creating a kids collection for the Gap!

The range is due to hit stores in November, so not long to wait. Stella says: "For years now I’ve wanted to create a collection for kids... I believe that this one-off collaboration will be a great way for customers to be able to participate in the Stella McCartney brand."

In the past, the lovely Miss McCartney has designed for H&M (who sold out of her creations in a matter of hours) and of course Adidas, on a more longterm basis.

So, so excited to see her miniature fashionistas when the campaign photos are done.

Pringle to show at LFW


Pringle of Scotland have announced today that they will be returning to show at London Fashion Week in September.


This season's LFW is set to go down in history as the best ever, with reams of fashion houses due to celebrate the 25th anniversary of every fashionista's favourite diary date.


'We are unbelievably excited about our move back to London, especially as this year our own anniversary coincides with the British Fashion Council’s 25th celebrations', said Pringle's Creative Director Clare Waight Keller today.


Looking forward to seeing their latest creations!
