From Catwalk to Your Wardrobe

This season, designers and fashion gurus are going mad for block colours, straight cut lines and clashing shades of pink and red. Monique Lhuillier, who is prominently known her stunning bridal wear, ditched her iconic white lace fabrics in her Spring 2014 collection back in September of last year, for some bolder hues of coral and magenta in this stunning eye-popping ensemble. Paired with some orange stilettos and an orange painted lip, it’s no wonder Leslie Mann opted to work this look at The Other Woman premiere last April. Following Lhullier’s colour blocked beauty, Emma Stone splashed across the pages after appearing in a very similar ensemble at the Met Ball this year. These high-waisted, split-front wrap skirts beautifully compliment both her and Leslie’s petite frames and the bold colours provide a vibrant pop to their fair colourings.

And now high street stores have decided that this Spring/Summer look shouldn’t just be for the catwalk and the red carpet and are releasing a range of their own Lhuillier inspired skirts. They seem to be everywhere at the moment and starting from as little as £10 a pop everyone should have one in their wardrobes this summer. Dress up like Mann and Stone with a pair of strappy stilettos or down with pretty flat sandals – just don’t forget those block colours and to not over accessorise and you’ll be right on point this season.

Summer Wish List!


It may only be April but in my eyes that can only mean one thing... Summer is nearly here! Since getting back from travelling the world three weeks ago I have been getting serious withdrawal symptoms from seeing the sun and my body is not happy being wrapped in 1000 layers every time I leave the house. So, to brighten my mood and get me excited for the fast approaching summer, I decided to make a summer wish list of some of the beautiful seasonal items hitting our stores at the moment. I particularly love the Miss Guided jumpsuit and the Peter Pan Collar blouse which is a steal at just £9.00 in the Fashion Union sale!

Let's just hope we get some nice weather to wear it all now!

1) Floral Jumpsuit - Miss Guided, £29.99 2) Mac lipstick in Hoop, £15.00 3) Peter Pan Collar Blouse - Fashion Union, £9.00 4) Dolce and Gabbana - Dolce, £62.00 5) Heels - Miss Selfridge, £38.00 6) Teardrop Ring - Freedom at Topshop, £8.50 7) Sunglasses - Topshop, £16.00
