X Factor Live Show – Week 2 Fashion
Week 2, and the X Factor is still seriously underwhelming us on the question of musical talent. With the exceptions of Hannah, Sam Bailey and the knockout and eventual winner that has to be Tamera, the show is woefully under-represented when it comes to real talent. Thank goodness then, for the fashion watch, which at least adds another element of interest to the story. And this week it was most definitely honours even, with Nicole being the undeniable winner of Saturday night, and Sharon taking the plaudits on Sunday’s results show. Saturday Night Nicole always looks amazing when she wears bright colours, and Saturday was no exception. Her halter styled…

Pride of Britain Awards – Get the Celebrity look
One of the most heartfelt and moving awards ceremonies of the year are the Pride of Britain awards. These took place on Monday night, and saw the bravest and best of British receive awards from a range of celebrity faces. Many of the small screen stars opted for looks from the High Street. These included breakfast TV presenters Lorraine Kelly and Ranvir Singh, who looked elegant in Coast and Monsoon respectively. Laura Tobin, on the other hand, wore a Catherine Deane number in gold and black that looked super sophisticated, and was most definitely designer. This dress is currently available from mywardrobe. Lorraine Kelly and Ranvir Singh wear High…

Friday Shopping – Dress special
Friday shopping has been absent for a few weeks, as I have been enjoying Summer holidays and weekend breaks away. But now it is back and I’ve turned once again to a subject close to my heart – pretty dresses. Whilst some people live in jeans, or are never out of trousers, I always instinctively turn to a dress when I need something failsafe. As we start to head towards Autumn, it is nice to know that colour is still a big story. Coast have a fabulous range of £95 dresses that are destined to be wardrobe classics. I love the jewelled emerald shade, as well as the zesty colour…

Kiera Knightley’s wedding – Rock and Roll Prom Style
Kiera Knightley got married this weekend, and I have to say how much I loved her whole look. Apparently recycling a Rodarte dress that she first wore a few years ago, and adding a Chanel jacket, pretty ballerina pumps and a chain of delicate flowers to her hair, she epitomised the cool and casual, low-key bride – and looked just wonderful. I love so much about Kiera’s wedding style. In the days when excess is the norm (Kardashian’s anyone?), to see a bride looking so fresh and pretty is just so refreshing. Add in the fact that Kiera recycled an admittedly beautiful dress, and then slipped on a pair of…

V&A Ballgowns collection at Coast.
Coast has launched the most exquisite collection of dresses on the High Street of this, or any year. Inspired by the sumptuous archive collection of the V&A costume department, and more specifically by the Ballgowns Exhibition that was a true celebration of Vintage glamour, this collection is truly beautiful. Made up of 6 dresses, both full length and prom style, the dresses have names that call to mind society beauties of years past, Cecily and Daphne, Blanche and Lottie, Phoebe and Patience. And although Coast is a high Street name, albeit a higher end one, these dresses are more attuned to couture designs than to mass-produced pieces. The Blanche has…
