Hurry Up Student Loan - River Island.

Oh how this is my favourite time of year :))))))

As Britain’s High Street becomes a second home for millions of fashionistas at this time of year, I’ve decided to do a wee bit of retail evaluations and don’t worry, I won’t hold back. Not like me to sugar coat stuff anyway is it?

RIVER ISLAND

'Must-Haves'

Safe to say that River Island has been one of my faveys for the last three seasons, and impeccably, they have some beautiful pieces for this A/W. I particularly like the very chic, antique-style tea dresses, rich autumnal colours and laid back daywear.

These are my ‘must-haves’

I WANT I WANT I WANT.

For all of the above and many many more, check out River Island’s new, less appealing website

I can see that many fashion retailer’s interweb pages are trying to specialise their choices, colours and styles a la the mighty ASOS.com, but for me, RI’s just does not work. It’s a bit like when Facebook just decides to change and you feel all wrong. Surely it was easier to use before non? I did prefer the cleaner, smoother flow of the previous look. I’m fed up of seeing unimaginative websites when theres so much that you can work with. Get it sorted.

Kissy Perry. My new girl crush.

I am now obsessed with Katy Perry. Didn't get it at first, mind you. Thought she was this scatty wierdo that MTV had created again to host all their shows.
Cynical as I am, Katy Perry has quite literally taken over my life this summer.
With what can only be described as an uber figure Katy has been all up in our grills with her own sugary sweet style. Looking cute and summery in Chanel, YSL and her ever expanding Topshop wardrobe, I am getting greener and greener by the minute.
And she has the coolest shoes now a la Alberto Guardiani.






Here's some of my favourite outfits. I hate being a civilian sometimes.

Sweet Dreams Are Made of Tali.

Watch out Lourdes, there's a new teen celeb princess amongst Fashion's Brit pack.
Presenting Tali Lennox (daughter of 80's diva Annie Lennox and Israli music and film producer Uri Fruchtmann)






Tali (right) the 16 year old(????) 5"9 babe has been signed by Select models a la Alexa Chung and has quite an astonishing portfolio already. Some of these shots are pristine.
She is so striking isn't she? The masculinity of her facial features compliment some of these lovely shots, highlighting lots of movement and exciting in some daring forms. Something tells me this ones a keeper.













































Tali and her sister Lola (18) have modelled Freedom at Topshop S/S10 collections.

Right where was I? Oh yes, eating some celery and TONNES of cardio :(

Zoppini Me.

Take a look at this GORGEOUS Zoppini ring I got as a present from Sardinia.












Isn't it amazing? It's like a piece of art. It consists of 4 steel plates held together by three double ended screws.
Zoppini, a family business launched a unique jewellery and watch business. One of the three Zoppini brothers in Milan worked as a sports and leisure architect and I can really see how this amazing creation came to life.

I am in love with it. It's very minimalist and I can see it in keeping with the functional, simple trends of a/w.
Go on have a nose http://www.zoppini.com/

Pure, 1-3 August 2010

As this joyous British Summer is in full swing (not), it is that time that I went to Pure. And let me say that Olympia had no trouble in hosting an as ever fascinating showcase of chic and boldly emerging brands for buyers to have a gander at. And probably spending a HUGE amount of bucks as we're coming up to A/W (huge smiley to be back in my chunky knit btw)
Very very insightful for any fashion fan in that all under one roof are an array of beautiful fashion creations and just by asking the right questions can find out some very useful insights into the buying selection process.





However this time it was round was alot more fun. I went to Pure to check out my competitors......

I am happy to announce that I am launching a my own online business selling purses and wallets. That is all I can divulge to you at this point. Mouth schtum.
