White on White



Been a while since my last post as I have broken my back. So instead of spending my summer shopping and wearing all my new clothes I have to stick to a much simplier life and wardrobe for a while and make a long wish list for when I am better in a few months :D Anyway..... 

My favourite this season trend is white on white I may live in Scotland and the weather might not always be perfect to go out in all white but who cares you have to just get over it when it comes to living in Britian and wear what you want, (and make the most of the few sunny days) 

Here are a few of my favourite white looks from Spring/Summer 13 catwalks....

Chloe


Valentino

Vera Wang

Victoria Beckham

Moschino

Temperley London

The range of box shapes, calf skirts, lazer cut, mesh and collars how could I not love the look and my 3 favourite items I own for this summer are all in white!



Topshop 

Paired with a crop top and sandal heels (to add a wee bit of Carrie Bradshaw to your look)...or a casual top, socks and brogues! I just love this skirt! 
Office

Truthfully I wasn't a big fan of the 'flatforms' but I love theses, slipped on with casual trousers and a t-shirt adds a little edginess to such a simple casual outfit!
Zara

I have wanted a white pair of cigarette pants for ages! I love them with a grey t-shirt with collar and some statement heels! And I have found they are perfect for when I just don't know what to wear!


I'm sure there will be much more to come with my new found obsession for white :)

FINLAY&CO.

 
 
Ok so in my first ever blog I mentioned that I had an amazing oppourtunity in the horizon which I can now announce! I am now an official Brand Ambassador for FINLAY&CO.

FINLAY&CO are a wooden sunglasses company based in London! All their glasses are handmade from a selection of 4 different woods and these are avaliable in two shapes!


Ledbury Rosewood

If you haven't heard of the brand before then you are missing out! They have been featured in Grazia, GQ, Vogue and much more, along side brands like Prada and Versace! Their celebrity clientele is forever growing, (My favourite being David Gandy) recently Francis Boulle became a new client as he was seen wearing his FINLAY&CO glasses on the Made In Chelsea finale this season.

They have recently been called 'The quickest way to look cool' They now have stockists in London, Edinburgh, California, Dubai, Australia and many more! Howeve this opportunity means I can now sell the glasses to you to make your purchase more personal (as sadly we don't all live in London or Dubai). I also got an email including comapny photos which included ones of David Gandy wearing his amazing glasses, which I have kindly shared with you all!

I got my first pair a few weeks ago after days of deciding between the different woods and shapes! I love mine! They are the perfect summer accessory and look so cute with any outfit!

Met Gala 2013



I could hardly contain my excitement to see the amazing outfits from a night where fashion is key! The Met Gala of 2013 was sure to be interesting with the theme of Punk and I did begin to question how celebrities such as Katie Holmes and Anne Hathaway were going to pull off such an out there theme when they usual go for simple elegance! Some guests completely embraced the punk look from their dress, hair, makeup and whatever else and other touched on the theme! But wow did they all do an amazing job! It was tough but i managed to choose a few favourites!

Ok so they aren't in order....


Blake Lively stepped on in a Gucci Premiere Gown specially designed for her. She looks amazing! The light green bodice followed by the outstanding tiered black train was perfect for the striking blonde. The train hinted at the theme while the dress showed elegance and attitude. 



Jessica Biel, (as much as I dislike her for marrying the lovely Justin Timberlake) perfectly pulled this off her look on the night! I love the dress itself, which is Giambattista Valli Haute Couture. Its gorgeous and she adds to it (to fit the theme) by adding macrame and tulle leggings. The detail ok it all is amazing and so elegant.

I absolutely love this! Sienna Miller's white open back Burberry dress is perfect for just now with white being such an on trend colour this summer!  The Jacket hits the theme on the head, its amazing, and he little touches with studs in her hair and ears, I think she has the perfect mix of punk and elegance for the event.

And my favourite.....



It may just be because I have discovered a love for her after watching Sex And The City from the start but every time I see her i just think WOW! The Dress itself is gorgeous the range of colours and the gathered look, the things just seems to work! However I think everyones attention is more on her Philip Treacy Mohican headpiece while embraces the punk looks in a strange but elegant way! And the Tartan Boots! I just think anyone else trying this would of been labelled as a random fashion mishap but she just pulls it off, god knows how but she looks amazing!


I probably repeated words several times but anyway I think all the celebrities looked amazing and honestly I wasn't appalled by that many celebrities, considering the risque theme it was a great fashion success!
