Mercury Music To My Ears

The Mercury Music Awards took place last night. In with a shot was the lovely Corinne Bailey Rae but even though she didn't win thought I'd post how amazing she looked...


I love Stella McCartney, she always produces clothes that women really want to wear and this dress was a real favourite of mine and I think Corinne looks sensational. I'm currently looking to make a bridesmaid dress for my sisters wedding and I feel really inspired by this one.


I really like the idea for someone not very tall wearing a long dress with a shorter lining or having a short front like this Stella dress. I think the concept of this dress is something to really consider as a short (5ft3) lady.

Sale of the day

Must be a mothers influence, cool mother and daughter duo Pearl and Daisy Lowe both names on the fashion circuit. Pearl is known for her lace interior furnishings and glam goth style. Daisy is known for that body and her concoction of rock and pretty styling. She bares an obvious influence to her mother yet brings something new and fresh.

 
Pearl Lowe's collaborated with Peacocks for the British high street and produced a pretty, girly, vintage inspired collection and was modelled by daughter Daisy. I'm selling a great item from the collection.

Would look great as an easy summer top or great for pretty sleepwear. Take inspiration from the model as muse herself...


Lusting for Leopard

A big trend this season (but one that always seems to be there) has to be Leopard Print. I like to think of this print as a classic; just more of a trend particularly this season. I've always been a fan ever since the, dare I say it, Spice Girl days, when Mel B sported anything leopard print. I went out with that inspiration and brought my very first leopard print flared!!! leggings. Whilst it may not have been my finest moment my love for leopard prints stuck, and this season is a real treat.






Available in almost every shade,  varying sizes and on almost everything.  I'm currently lusting after literally anything leopard print....


 Mango Jewellery


Topshop Handbags


Hanky Panky Underwear









Skirts from Asos, Whistles and Mango.

Quite frankly I'll take it all. Let the Leopard print obsession commence.
