My Fashion Life

Name: Victoria Haynes

Occupation: Fashion journalism student, wannabe writer and travel addict.

Favourite designers:

Matthew Williamson, Anna Sui and Alice Temperley. I love embellished, embroidered, floaty designs. I’m a bit of a hippy really.

Which trends do you think will dominate fashion this spring?

I think there’ll be a lot of white around, it’s a summer classic that keeps rearing its head. And I think shorts will still be hanging around from Winter, but they’ll be teamed with flip flops instead of boots. I think accessories are going to be big and bold.

Who would have thought it but singer Avril Lavigne has decided she wants to try her hand at modelling. Avril has signed up with top modelling agency Ford and told Harper’s Bazaar,

“I want to do those really beautiful ads with the high-end products.

I look through magazines and stare at ads and think: ‘I’m not six feet tall, but I know I can do that.’”

Her look has slowly changed from punk princess, to lady like chic and Avril claims she’s starting to feel more feminine. Apparently this transformation all began when she received a Prada Handbag as a gift.

Could there be a major contract on the way…

Been spending your days wondering why, Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan have gradually started to look like each other? Well wonder no more, their “look” is the work of celebrity stylist of the moment Rachel Zoe.

With a long list of celebrity clients including Kate Hudson, Mischa Barton, Enrique Iglesias and Salma Hayek, Zoe commands up to approx. $6000 a day for her work and is notably more fashion obsessed than most.

Her look is very glam boho, (think 1970’s, Kate Moss and Tom Ford), and in response to her critics who claim she’s simply creating clones of herself, Zoe says,

“I’m not trying to make people look like me. But when you spend a lot of time with someone, you rub off on each other. I think I’m kind of an older sister to Lindsay and Nicole.”
