My week with Marilyn
I’ve been a Marilyn Monroe fan for as long as I can remember. Her sheer glamour, loveable persona and that beautiful face and figure made her my key beauty icon whilst I was growing up. Add in her tumultuous love life and mysterious death and you get one of the most fascinating personalities of the 20th century. But even with all these key ingredients, making a good film about this Icon has been difficult. The best portrayal was by Catherine Hicks in the 1980 film, Marilyn – The Untold Story. She managed to portray the vulnerability of Marilyn, but the film itself was dire. But now we may just have…

Sunday saw the MTV Movie Awards, with a host of favourite style savvy stars walking the red carpet. Kristen Stewart, Emma Watson, Leighton Meester and Blake Lively were just a few of the fashion-forward stars that appeared at the event, which proved to be a bit of a fashion flop. Take a look at some of the outfits on display on the night. Good Emma Watson was the best dressed star on the night, in not one, but two fantastic dresses. Proving that white is still one of the hot shades this year, she looked beautiful in a Marchesa dress, that was both age appropriate and elegant. She then changed…

Nicole Murray – now view the collection.
I recently wrote about Fashion’s bright new hope Nicole Murray, a designer who I believe is one to watch. Today I am very pleased to be able to share Nicole’s Autumn/Winter 2011 collection. Full of Autumnal shades of heather, amethyst and rosewood, combined with rich earthy tones of bronze, this stylish and sophisticated collection illustrates perfectly why Nicole is a rising star on the British fashion scene. From the slinky backless evening dress, to the retro pencil skirts and skinny fit tops, this is a collection that salutes the Halston style glamour of the 1970s. The use of lame for trenchcoats and sexy secretary skirts is a key to the…
