Gold Sequin Top
Declaring Indigo Totally Blue Me Away
New for Autumn 2009 is the Lancôme Declaring Indigo Collection created by famed and funky makeup artist Aaron De Mey. It consists of fifteen new colours and two brushes with a definitive, bold and courageous yet wearable palettes of electric blues, golds and reds. It was inspired by Brigitte Bardot and Simpone de Beauvior, French women with a spirited and sexy, unconventional style.
Celebrity Style: Sequinned Blazer
I have spotted a new trend emerging on the London party scene as girls reach for the sequins to jazz up a simple ensemble. Last week both Little Boots and Liz McLaron supported the style which was spotted on the catwalks at D&G and Stella McCartney. It looks best over a simple plain dress or with tailored trousers and a pair of killer heels.
Matthew Williamson For H&M Burns Through Foggy San Fran
Breathe in, breathe out. This was me last night when trying to fall asleep. You know when you're so excited for something insomnia ensues and obsession overpowers?
Come Party With Me: Mardi Gras Bash - Invitations
Lately I've been hosting dinner after dinner and I've been dying to have a reason to host a big blowout bash. And I've just found my reason: Mardi Gras! Mardi Gras is typically celebrated the last five days leading up to Lent with the biggest day of partying on Fat Tuesday, the night before Ash Wednesday.
Celebrity Style: Whitney Port
Diane von Furstenberg celebrated International Women's Month by throwing a bash at her West Hollywood boutique last night. Of course, Whitney Port attended to show support for her boss. The reality starlet balanced fancy and casual by wearing a DvF gold-sequined blazer up top, but downplaying it with Charley 5.0 denim leggings and ballet flats.
Get the Look: Oscar Party Lounge
Considering that the Oscars are less than a week away, it's about time to start prepping your house for your own Sunday night Oscar party. Since YumSugar shared images with me of her preview tour of the Governors Ball, I figured I'd put 'em to use and show you how to get the look of an Oscar party lounge, making your digs worthy of an award — or at the very least, a nomination.
While I'll never endorse this color scheme, I do appreciate its inspiration.
London Fashion Week, Spring 2009: Vivienne Westwood
It is pleasing to note that Vivienne Westwood's Red Label show now seems to be a permanent fixture of London Fashion Week. After her Berlin clubland-inspired Anglomania collection at Berlin Fashion Week this summer, Westwood's Red Label girl has taken on a more sophisticated approach for Spring/Summer 2009. With a front row that included Kate Moss, Dita von Teese, Daisy Lowe and rather bizarrely, Pamela Anderson, this was one of the most hotly anticipated shows of the week.
Trend Alert: Boho Gilet
When I saw this image from the latest Warehouse ad campaign I realised how small the fashion trends cycle has gotten. It reminded me of the Sienna Miller boho look from 2002 when we were all wearing low slung long gypsy skirts with big Moroccan belts and layering faux-fur gilets over paisley tops. Minus the maxi-skirt, that's exactly the trend for this Autumn.
Fab Finding Follow Up: A Night at Studio 54
Last week, we had a fun reader request come through: she was invited to a big 70s disco-themed party, and wants to wear something fashionable with a disco twist. She's at loose ends about where to start, but as soon as she said "fashionable" as one of her requirements, I knew we could be all over this like spots on dice!
I started you off with this Urban Outfitters Sequin Beret, $24, because it will catch those disco ball reflections like no other.
Grammys Red Carpet Trend: Glitterati
I had a feeling that since it was the Grammys we would be treated to some over the top fashions and I was right! The first trend I noticed off the bat was glitterati. Everyone was sparkling!
