British Fashion Awards 2008: The Winners
This evening the British Fashion Awards took place at Lawrence Hall, in Westminster hosted by journalist Mariella Frostup. The awards supported by the British Fashion Council and sponsored by Swarovski celebrated the biggest names in British fashion from designers to models.
The nominees were revealed back in August but you guys predicted correctly that Luella Bartley was the big winner.
Trend Alert: Bows
Pretty bows are adorning everything this season from dresses and handbags, to shoes and alice bands, as fashion returns to ladylike elegance. Big dramatic bows appeared on party dresses at Sonia Rykiel and D&G with metallic detailing finishing at the knee for a classy look. Brighter colours were used at Luella where neon pastels brought a modern feel to old lady chic.
Look of the Day: Luella Girl
Oxymoron is a Luella girl minus the Luella price tag. She loved the designer's floral tiered mini skirts, but since she didn't want to pay the high price, she found a look for less! Smart girl for wearing a simple black tee and allowing the cutesy skirt to shine.
Love it or Hate it: Alexa Chung at 2008 Glamour Awards
Alexa Chung attended last night's Glamour Awards having been nominated for Best Presenter (sadly she lost out to Fearne Cotton). She looked stylish wearing a strapless dress from Luella A/W (she also wore Luella to the Elle Style Awards in February). She teamed it with cute patent shoe-boots and a little black bag.

2008 Elle Style Awards: Alexa Chung
Seems like Alexa Chung is quickly making a name for herself as a style icon in the UK. The Popworld presenter sported a new season Luella pink prom dress to the event with black shoots (shoe-boots). Do you think she pulls off the dress?

Milk still does a body good, if you ask me. The online store of this one-year-old West Hollywood boutique, is fun and colorful, with a funky collage on its welcoming home page. This shop leans towards retro-inspired clothes from such lines as Christopher Deane, Diane von Furstenberg, Luella and Sue Stemp.
Hot Color: Deep Purple
Jewel-tones are very big for Fall and Winter 2006, and you really can't go wrong with deep purple. This deep amethyst shade was all over the runways, and now it's making its way into stores in the form of dresses, tops, handbags, and shoes. Splashes of rich purple look great paired with basic black or even with earthy brown ensembles.
