Glittering in the night:

Bobby, school teacher
Bobby's loose white shirt gas a distinct summery appeal, a look I am very happy to be witnessing more and more over the last few days...... The sun is returning to London town!

Denise, Social Media assistant.
My magpie eyes locked onto her Anya Hindmarch clutch, she clearly was a big fan of sparkles too judging by her costume Jewelery necklace she is wearing.

Cookie, Media assistant
I really like how Cookie has jazzed up a little black dress with bright colourful tights, an exciting twist to the standard "LBD" ensemble.

A couple of weeks ago I headed over to Campbell-Bell HQ to style and photograph a shoot for Beauchamps's of London. The theme was CoLoUR!- possibly channeling the block colour trend that is coming up strong at the moment.... wasn't intentional but i am sure it came about subconsciously.

Beauchamp's belts have the amazing ability to be reversible and interchangeable, you can mix 'em up- change the buckles around tun them inside out and back to front. There is also the potential to utilise your silk scarfs- I have a whole box of vintage silk scarfs that i never use- I think Beauchamp's may be the answer I have been looking for.

Whats more there is a bespoke service if you cant pick the colour/texture/shape that you want........

AMAZEBALLS!

The aim behind many of the designs of the Beauchamp's of London belts is to focus on flexibility, uniqueness and offer individual artistic licence to flourish. Currently the designs can be worn in a multitude of different ways. so, I have decided to use this concept over the next week and post a picture of me wearing the same belt in a different way for the next 7 days.

Shirt: Gharani Strok; Skirt: Vintage; Belt: Beauchamp's of London.

I went to Notting Hill and took some pics for ELLE.ZA whilst I was there:

Pictures by Autumn

Autumn de Wilde has taken a series of photos for Peter Jensen's Fall 2011 collection. The photographs are set in Hollywood, possibly channeling the muse for this collection, Anna Karina. Here the models are set in scenes like stills from a film rather than posing for photographs.

BTW I used to work at the Peter Jensen studio..... nice crowd!

Vivienne's party

So, to kick of London Fashion week with a bang, Dame Vivienne Westwood held a party at the beautiful building that is the Wallace Collection on Manchester square, London. As we promptly arrived at 8 (so as to ensure entry, we had a tip off from an insider that it was over RSVP'd by about 200!!! yikes!) we were front of queue. As we walked past the paparazzi, we swanned up the grand staircase to the sound of a string quartet and greeted with glasses of Perrier Jouet in beautifully branded flutes. We then proceeded to the main bar area to see the collection of the 'Get a Life' Palladium jewellery collection (a range of one-off couture pieces and ready-to-wear designs - crafted from palladium, a rare precious metal.) The pieces were in shapes of natural objects such as oak leaves and my favourite, an acorn. 
Whilst here our first celebrity spotting of Olivia Palermo sauntering towards the bar in a fabulous Temperley jacket. shortly followed by Mr Hudsen, Kele, Plan B, and an entrance from Annie Mac (omg I heart her) and Nick Grimshaw. Then George Craig enters wearing a blue Burberry coat (beautiful beautiful boy).  Fiery Haired Vivienne later turns up:

We party on, nibbling on mini cheese soufflés, scallops and a bizarre combination of venison, chocolate and beetroot canapés. As well as sipping down more Perrier Jouet! we then head down to the courtyard for the Live performance from Jessie J:

Wow wow wow, she was amazing!
