Peacocks to release a royal wedding dress for just £60!
Fab High Street store Peacocks were one of the stores who had success with a copy of the Reiss engagement dress, and now they have launched what must be the most reasonably priced copy of the Sarah Burton wedding dress, priced at just £60. This dress is going to be launched as part of the Editions range as an online exclusive on August 6th, and is expected to be an instant sell-out. This is the first time that Peacocks has sold a wedding dress, and I think this is a very clever move, as this retains the spirit of the royal wedding dress, if not being an identical copy.

Style icon of the month June -Lily Allen
There was only one choice for style icon of the month for June – beautiful bride and glowing bride-to-be Lily Allen. I have been a fan of Lily’s style since I saw her at Glastonbury wearing a multi-coloured ball gown and hi-top trainers. She had that eclectic mix of vintage and street style that made her look totally original. I was a fan of her Lily Loves collection for New Look (Still have two dresses in my wardrobe), and just thought she was a total one-off, an English eccentric. Lily’s style has grown over the years, she has developed a penchant for Chanel and for vintage dresses and pieces. She…

Kate Moss’s amazing Rock n Roll wedding!
She finally did it..and she did it her way! Kate Moss, the eternal bachelor girl, finally tied the knot yesterday with her rocker, and she looked absolutely amazing. Kate wore a beautiful vintage style dress by her troubled friend John Galliano for the wedding. This had a real 1920s feel, which tied in with Kate’s obsession with all things ‘beautiful and damned’. It was sleeveless and bias cut, rather like a decadent evening dress, and the hemline shimmered with rhinestones and gold leaves. There was a small train, and the veil and headpiece was reminiscent of that worn by The Queen Mother for her wedding to The Duke of Young…

The growing trend for two wedding dresses.
There seems to be a new trend amongst stylish brides for more than one white dress on their big day.It used to be traditional for brides to have that one super special dress for their wedding day, and to revel in wearing it all day long, unless they left early to go on honeymoon. But now brides seem to be making the most of the chance to really dress up and are investing in two, and even three dresses for their big day. Kate Middleton swapped her lace and satin Amanda Burton creation for an ivory strapless McQueen gown with a lovely angora shrug cardigan over the top. This seemed…

Why even Kate Moss couldn´t make a Hen Party Stylish!
I have mused before about whether it could be possible to have a truly stylish, non cheesy hen night. One that didn´t involve deeley boppers, feather boas, slogan t-shirts, sashes or any other paraphernalia associated with that most girlie of celebrations. Last weekend, my ultimate style icon took a group of her female friends to the cool confines of the Isle of Wight music festival, to celebrate her upcoming nuptials. Kate Moss, the ultimate fashionista, a legendary fashion icon, friend of Alexander McQueen and the women with the most deeply coveted wardrobe in the world, celebrated with her friends a weekend of pure girlie abandon before her July 2nd wedding to Jamie…
