Uniqlo UT Music Icons Range: Should Fashion Stores Sell Band T-Shirts?


As Uniqlo's UT project launches its new 'Music Icons' range of t-shirts, it once again brings up the question Urban Outfitters, ASOS and countless others have provoked in recent years: should fashion retailers sell band t-shirts?

Jaw-Dropping Jewellery - The Kinetic Collection by Ruifier



Honest to God, I could stare at this incredible jewellery all day. The Kinetic Collection by designer fine jewellery brand, Ruifier, is utterly captivating. They've used technology to create a mechanism that keeps a semi-precious stone in constant movement, creating a magical aura and what's basically a mini light show thanks to the refractions from the gorgeous gems.

The Fashion World of Jean Paul Gaultier From the Sidewalk to the Catwalk exhibition finally hits the UK on 9th April at London's Barbican centre.

Tour the New Karl Lagerfeld London Store



As anyone who reads my Huffington Post blog will know, I recently had the pleasure of a tour of the brand spanking new European flagship store for Karl Lagerfeld on London's Regent Street, and I'm pleased to report that it didn't disappoint.

United Colours of Supreme?


90s Benetton, much?

Moschino x McDonald's

Jeremy Scott is a proper little troublemaker, in the best sense of the word. Regular readers of this blog will know I'm a total fangirl. His fast food inspired creations for the Moschino FW14 collection may have some of the old guard clutching at their pearls but

Siouxsie Sioux x Supreme


Supreme is going old school punk on hipster skate kids' asses this Spring with their Siouxsie Sioux print pieces, including this classic black t-shirt. I wonder how many of them will know who she is?

adidas Originals Streetball Platform Wedge Shoes


OK so these happened.

New Ashish x Topshop Collaboration Announced


Ashish is one of my absolute favourite fashion designers but his heavily embellished, exquisitely crafted work is mostly outside my price range, so I'm a HUGE fan of his more affordable Topshop collaborations.

Underground Fashion from Roundel



Love or loathe the tube, there's no denying the fact that London Underground has a truly iconic aesthetic. The world's first city subway is awash with classic design, from Harry Beck's topological Tube Map to the station signage and typography.

Fascinators be gone. The coolest headgear around right now comes from Piers Atkinson.

Rodnik x Peanuts for Selfridges


A couple of years back I wrote about "fashion rogues" the Rodnik Band and their wearable art pieces. Since then, they've produced a much more commercial collection for ASOS and now they're injecting their warmth and humour into this exclusive Rodnik x Peanuts collection for Selfridges.

Couture Kicks from Chanel


The recent Chanel Couture Spring 2014 collection showed that, whilst Karl Lagerfeld may have an aversion to sweatpants, he's not above jumping on the high fashion sneaker trend.

Saint Bustier - Designer Busty Girl Fashion Site - Launches


I'M SORRY. I know I've been gone a long time so I figured I owed you an explanation, and here it is: Saint Bustier

For the past few months I've been part of the Saint Bustier team, working on bringing you the first ever designer fashion boutique to cater for women who wear regular clothes sizes (UK 8-18) but have large cup sizes (D-H). As the fantastique Mademoiselle Robot described it, Saint Bustier is "a real game changer... the Net A Porter of boobies".

SaintBustier.com has just launched and is proving hugely popular already - it seems there are a lot of us out there who find it hard to buy clothes that don't gape, strain or cause wholly indecent wardrobe malfunctions without having to go up a size or two to accommodate our ample chests. 

I'm a firm believer that fashion is for everyone and should be accessible so - given the majority of fashion is cut to a B cup regardless of clothing size - I'm delighted to be involved with Saint Bustier. We're bringing gorgeous, well fitting, D-H cup fashion and awesome outfits, other than your bog standard wrap dresses and v-neck t-shirts, from great brands (scandi-cool to American starlet and Brit chic) to the booby masses. 

Everything's pictured on 30E-32GG models too, along with detailed Fit Notes, so you can get a better idea of what to expect depending on your particular shape.

As most of you know, I'm a sucker for a sequin so here's a couple of my fav picks from the site, above is the Emma dress with embellished shoulders in Cream, £350, by Bastyan from Saint Bustier, worn with some exquisite Jasmine Citrine Smokey chandelier earrings, £120, from Sushilla.co.uk, by our fabulous 32GG model. 

Below, Deluxe Sequinned Blazer, £110 (which is pictured here on a 30FF model but fits to an H cup), and matching Deluxe Sequinned Pant, £89, both by Second Female from Saint Bustier.

Katie Grand x Hogan 'Gang' Collection - I *Heart* Hi-Tops


Katie Grand is AWESOME. Editor of LOVE magazine, super stylist, Central St. Martins grad and fellow North London resident. Do I want to be in her gang? HELL YEAH. And, after working with her for years now, the smarty pants over at Hogan - sister label to the Italian leather brand Tod's (you know, the loafer people) - obviously realise I'm not the only one.  In a very smart move that brings them some serious street cred, Hogan have just revealed the Katie Grand x Hogan 'Gang' accessories collection which drops in January. 

The youthful, Harajuku style collection includes some fun bags, ballet flats and great sunglasses but - obviously - my favs are these amazing hi top trainers and wedge sneakers.  The heart detail on the heels is straight off the Nike 2002 Valentine's Series Air Force 1s but, whatever, it's super cute and I absolutely LOVE it.
