Loving Marios Schwab at Debenhams
Debenhams continues to add to its impressive roster of A-List designers with Marios Schwab the latest addition to the Editions range. Marios is a real a-list favourite, Emily Blunt being a key star who loves his designs, and the collection got a major boost this week, when the gorgeous new Bond girl, Naomie Harris, wore a stunning and revealing Marios Schwab design to the Skyfall premiere. Naomie’s dress bares a striking resemblance to the Black Sheer sequinned dress in the Editions collection, albeit with a less revealing undergarment. There are other great dresses in the collection, slinky cocktail style gowns that flatter and fit the body and enhance those curves.…

Spartoo and the Spooky shoes
When I was a little girl, I was always fascinated with witches shoes, after all, in the Wizard of Oz the witch was wearing the Ruby Red slippers so what was not to love? Even as a child I understood that witches, good or bad, were rather stylish, often wearing shiny black heels, with decidedly pointed toes, or in the occasional Mary Jane style. Even the fabulously bad Meg, of Meg and Mog fame, had some cute heels with shiny gold buckles. Witches shoes were most definitely cool. This month Spartoo is celebrating the coming of Halloween with a selection of shoes that will shock, delight and spook in equal…

I love to blog about the sort of clothes that I personally love to wear, especially those from one of my most visited High Street stores. I decided to take up the challenge to show Fashion-Mommy readers what I would choose as the five key pieces for A/W 2012 from the current Next collection. My picks were influenced by the most eagerly awaited film of the season – the Carey Mulligan/Leonardo Di Caprio vehicle ‘The Great Gatsby’. The latest Great Gatsby movie is released on Boxing day…

Cannes – Daytime Classics
The Cannes film festival is always a super glamorous event, and that means for daytime photocalls as well as evening Red Carpet events. This is not an occasion for jeans and t-shirts, the celebrities are never less than dressed up at Cannes. And this gives fashion watchers the perfect opportunity to check out some fabulous looks for daytime. From lace to florals, to Freida Pinto in the cutest two piece, there have been some highly covetable looks that could translate to glamorous daytime occasions like the races, the tennis and weddings. These are my favourite daytime looks so far from Cannes. Kirsten Dunst shows that white can be the perfect shade for both porcelain…
