FASHION TRENDS: SS11 70′S CHIC TIME WARP LOOK!!

70′S CHIC TIME WARP!

Love vintage? Why not go and get yourself lost in the gorgeous 70′s chic time warp trend for spring summer 2011!!??

Indulge your fashion appetite in camels, denim, champagne and rich khaki colours which flow in chiffon materials like Cat Deely’s hair (*whispers* in that pantene advert)!

*takes willows instruction andbegins to whip hair*

Being a vintage lover myself (as you all may know) I am completely in Love with this trend.. But what i love most is the come-back of the PALAZZO pants (below)

Palazzo Pants – ASOS – £40.00

What I REEALLY love about these pants is that ANYONE can wear them!!.. whether you got long legs to DIE for, curves or even those annoying bumps that you would LOOOVE to mask… try some palazzo pants..

I also fell in love with the synching high waist and I must admit these pants give the most wonderful illusion of supermodel legs..

ALSO.. Why not try to create more of a long-leg illusion by pairing the pants with a pair of wedges, clogs or square heel platforms!!

DO NOT FORGET!! if you ARE bottom heavy, try a darker or muted coloured palazzo pant and remember the importance of bringing colour onto your top half to take the focus away from your hips!!.

So get yourself shopping ladies.. and look out for more season must have’s!!

Jessie J: The Darling Of The Brit Awards 2011 | Look.

 

You guys know i have o forward the HOTTEST gossip to you!!

look.co.uk aka Look magazine quoted:

Last night’s Brit Awards 2011 Nominations party in London was all about one lady… Jessie J. The quirky popstrel will pick up the Critics’ Choice gong at next month’s ceremony, and wowed the crowds both on stage and off with her Goth-meets-Lady Gaga looks (anyone brave enough to rock a peek-a-boo body stocking in public gets kudos from us). Soon to be a regular feature on the style pages we say, and with Dame Vivienne Westwood behind this years Brit trophy design, we reckon that’s one award that will be taking pride of place on this rising fashionista’s mantelpiece! Other stars hotly tipped for success at the Brits include Cheryl Cole, who’s up for Best British Female Solo Artist and Best British Single, Tinie Tempah for Best British Male Solo Artist and Mastercard British Album of the Year and Katy Perry, who could bag the International Female Solo Artist award. Looks like Jessie’s got some major red carpet competition. GG

I agree… Jessie J is definitely one to look out for!! GO GIRL!!!

Here is Jessie J’s music Video for ‘Do it like a Dude’…

STYLE ICON RIHANNA TO LAUNCH NEW FRAGRANCE!!!

THE MOMENT WE HAVE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR..

As pet named by her Grandma ‘Rebelle fleur’ which means rebellious flower, PLUS which has been the newest known tattoo addition to Rihanna’s SUPER  hot bod’,  Rihanna is using this name for her First NEW Fragrance!!! After such a success after the launch of her album ‘Loud’ feeding us floor fillers such as ‘only girl int he world’ and ‘whats my name (oh na na)’ there couldnt’ be more perfect timing!!

*celebrating carnival dancers enter with band*

(I am more keen about smelling this than the long 2 minutes waiting for the kettle to boil for my super noodles on a hungry stomach*gasssp*)

Launch on the 25th OF JANUARY!!!

*SCREAMS*

Rihanna EXCLUSIVELY told INSTYLE:

“I have never been happy with just one scent…

I have always layered scents to create something just my own, but nothing was ever perfect…

So the time was right to create Reb’l Fleur, something people would recognize me by..

something that would linger deliciously and make everyone say ‘Rihanna was here.‘”

*I FAINT ON THE FLOOR OUT OF EXCITEMENT*

I am more excited because i agree.. I am sure I’m not the only one who layers scents to create that ‘perfect scent’ which reflects who you are.. so I think this would be a great insight into who Ri-Ri REALLY is..*GRIN*

So keep your eyes peeled and your debit/credit cards ready.. if you never read instyle’s article… well, then you read it here first

STYLE STALKING: STATEMENT CAMEL FASHION PIECES

I was shopping in H&M When i spotted these two trendy ladies. Wearing Vintage of course, it just makes it even harder for us to steal their style!! *GASSSP  of frustration*

But what i particularly love about these two ladies style was their colour use of camel, golds and yellow with a hint of denim… it was as if they fell out of the same wardrobe LOL.

It’s always a good idea to inject bright colours into key pieces in an outfit like coats, bags, tights etc. and they done just that!! I love everything from the trendy haircuts to the chic vintage boyfriend shoes..

They get full scores hands DOWN *jumps up and down*

Looking through the photography for the night.. it was also a pleasant surprise to see Kristen smiling A HELL OF A LOT which is a contrast to her ‘dark’ exterior which she sometimes portraits. Kristen was also onstage with Male Actors Taylor Lautner and Robert Pattinson receiving the award for Favorite Movie (Twilight: Eclipse)  WELL.. let’s be real, who wouldn’t be grinning ear to ear! *grin*

So how can we get Kristens Look?

GOSSIP: CHER LLOYD’S “COPY-CAT” NEW HAIR; HIT OR MISS? CAST YOUR VOTE

So one of this weeks biggest discussions is on Cher Lloyd’s new hair-doo.

PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE ON THE POLL AT BOTTOM OF POST!

Cher was papp’ed sporting a ‘Hip Hop’ up-doo/Mohican with cascading curls in a mouth-watering (i may speak  for myself)  plum red as seen on Cheryl Cole during the X Factor Finals.

So catching this hairstyle from all angles… I actually Like it ON HER.. Although Cher is being criticised for doing a copy cat of Rihanna (below), this hairstyle too has also been seen on young singing sensation Willow Smith..

I think the Hairstylist was doing right by going with this look it simply just GOES with Cher’s ‘Image’.. whether we like it or not.. Cher as a product/artist belongs in the R&B/Hip Hop Category. Rumoured to recently be signed by Jay Z.. We all know Jay Z will pull out ALLL the stops necessary to get her to Fit in.

I Must also comment that i Love the Jumper on her to.. Cher is on the list for #thepeopleiwouldlovetostyle she is like the perfect lil’ Dolly.. The X Factor Team must have truly had a ball when styling her.. (apart from the Diva tantrums of course *eeek*).

Rihanna Does look stunning, as always.. but i do feel sorry for cher.. Its USA. There just aint enough hairstyles for all of us.

STYLE STALKING: VINTAGE FASHION LOVERS

location?… yup, you guessed it.. CROYDON… I saw these cute vintage lovers in my hometown which is also known as ‘chav city’ I reiterate. But i must admit.. Croydon is showing to be a real hotspot for the fashion lovers!!

I liked the contrast in these two ladies.. One is styled for a more relaxed boy’ish look still keeping on trend with a wine coloured sweater, denim jacket and a gorgeous pair of washed out boyfriend/worker boots. Whereas the other is styled a lot more girly which reminds me a lot of  the girls I papp’ed for ‘English Heritage‘ I love her courage for subtly pulling of white knit tights and muted plaid print shorts. And I think she accessorized the outfit well by layering pendant necklaces making the outfit complete.

Bravo ladies…

STYLE STALKING: WINTER COAT WONDERLAND!

Croydon is DEFINITELY a good place to be to get some style inspiration… And whats best than to walk past a group of friends who had their own individual looks… I absolutely LOVED their coats and just had to stop these ladies in their tracks!!

(starting left to right) The first lovely lady was wearing a floral vintage style coat which she bought from ‘sticky fingers’. The second lovely lady was wearing a simple chic grey coat from Krisp. The third lady .. May i say which IS my fav’ is wearing a coat from Oasis. And last but not least the fourth lady was wearing a hooded number from New Look

Keep an eye out for this gorgeous coat on Oasis… but get her look in these stores:

 

 

 

To share the spotlight.. I spotted this young lady in Croydon too sporting a goooorgeous Vintage Boutique coat in the same camel colour and wrap style.. THis colour looked absolutely gorgeous on her skin complexion.. BRAVO *grin*
