Lunchtime buy: Dress Up Topshop embellished one shoulder dress

Monday mornings are often dreary and dull – this one particularly so – and the thought of 9-5 can be enough to make you crave the glitz and glamour of the weekend. We hear ya, so don this deliciously decadent embellished dress to make you feel on top of the world. Of course, it’s probably not entirely appropriate for the office or an afternoon in the park with all that heavily sequinned embellishment, but that’s no reason to avoid an indulgence ready to dance the night away. The dress is part of Topshop’s new Dress Up collection, and definitely oozes overstated elegance with a fluttering one shoulder and lightening bolt mesh detail – we love the contrasting midnight blue and black. Pull out all the stops and team this dazzling dress with a pair of matching midnight booties and you’re ready to hit the town on Friday. Dress Up Topshop embellished one shoulder dress, £150, available at Topshop. BUY NOW!

Deal of the day: Topshop facet wrap ring

Royal wedding fever may be over, but we’re still inspired by the crown jewels. Although we can’t always get our hands on the real diamonds, we do know that some serious bling can make any outfit shine, and we reckon that picking up a new accessory is a high impact way to change an outfit, without the price tag of a whole new look. We’re totally loving this Topshop facet wrap ring for its glamorous style and fashion wow. In a bright, punchy pink, the large stone is a real statement piece, and though it may look good enough to eat, it’s the perfect guilt-free treat. Plus, the never ending gold metal wrap around the stone gives this ring a cool designer feel for a fraction of the cost. Who knew brightening your summer style was so easy?  Topshop facet wrap ring, £12.50, available at Topshop. BUY NOW!

Topshop takes over at the Met Ball

The prestigious Met Ball took place last night, and the fashion elite were out in full force to showcase their style talents on the red carpet.

Deal of the day: Dress Up Topshop apricot lace dress

This summer it’s all about playing peek-a-boo with a hint of midriff. Seen on the catwalk and on celebs, it’s not about the stomach flashing crop tops of the 90s, but a more reserved flash of flesh. This apricot lace dress from Topshop will allow you to try out the trend without showing all. In a form-fitting bodycon style, it’ll hug your curves and create a slim silhouette, but don’t let that put you off – it’s a great tangy base for adding layers if you’re a little less brave. Lace is also key for summer, and we love the cute lace panelling to offer a playful twist on the trend. In a soft apricot shade, this is an ideal everyday dress for summer. Wear with ballerina hair – a topknot will add cool-girl edge – and zesty accessories to keep it feeling fresh (tomato-red lipstick is perfect for this look).  Dress Up apricot stripe lace bodycon dress, £45, available at Topshop. BUY NOW!

Deal of the day: Topshop yellow vintage look leather satchel

We love finding a new bag. We know that you know we can never have too many, and with each season comes a glorious wave of new styles, so we did a little dance of happiness when we found this yellow vintage look leather satchel. Satchels are the go-to bag for summer with their geek chic style and practicality, and we love the bright yellow of this Topshop version to bring some sunshine into our days when the sun dips down. The boxy shape and structured style make this a great staple, and the cross body strap and flap front side pocket are perfect for keeping all our essentials at hand. Think like Alexa Chung and Fearne Cotton when you channel schoolyard style – pair with brogues or heels (chunky, never stiletto) and ankle socks, if you’re feeling brave. For just £38, this satchel will refresh your summer look, and best of all, no one will know the cost was just a fraction of its designer counterparts. So go ahead and treat yourself… we won’t tell anyone. Topshop yellow vintage look leather satchel, £38, available at Topshop. BUY NOW!

Deal of the day: Topshop Sense cut out platforms

It’s a fashion jungle out there, and sometimes you need a stand out piece to make sure you’re not lost in the camouflage. Step forward in these Topshop Sense platforms in nude leather snakeskin and you’ll be well ahead of the pack. Ticking more trend boxes than we can count, these lovely skyscrapers with a statement metallic heel are fashion with a capital F.

The slightly raised platform will add comfort to the extra high heels, and the nude suede platforms complement the snakeskin print perfectly. But if all that’s a tad too much for you, Topshop also offers this stylish shoe in patent purple or turquoise suede to keep you on trend. Best worn as an evening statement piece, keep your accessories minimal because these heels pack enough of a punch on their own.

Lunchtime buy: Topshop Perrin premium platforms

We love a tongue twister when it comes to fashion and these Topshop platforms aren’t half a mouthful! But that doesn’t stop us from lusting over them in all their peachy perfection. We all enjoy strutting onto the dancefloor in a pair of cigarette thin heels, but sometimes we yearn for a little bit of support in the ankle area. Topshop has given us two lots of safety features in these platforms – first there’s the chunky heel, which will prevent us from falling face first in front of that cute guy at the bar, and secondly, it’s cleverly added in an ankle strap to keep us extra secure. But if the stiletto equivalent of air bags isn’t enough to sway you to flex your cash card, take a closer look at the beautiful detailing. Studs line the inner heel adding a rock chic vibe and the peep-toe will highlight your perfect pedicure (note to self: get a pedicure).

Lunchtime buy: David Koma for Topshop halter dress

A few years ago on the X Factor, Cheryl Cole wore a very unusual dress with metal-pipe detailing by new designer David Koma and it made front page news.

Since then, he’s become one of London’s hottest tickets, and now, luckily for us, we can have a piece of that attention-grabbing style via his collaboration with Topshop. Amongst four others, Koma has cleverly recreated the dress that first shot him to fame but in a far more wearable way – a simple black bodycon halter dress with statement metal piping.

David Koma designs for Topshop

You know when Topshop seals the deal with yet another designer collaboration it’s going to be an absolute corker, and their latest coup, the young, fresh and talented David Koma, is no exception. The collection, due to hit stores in a few weeks, reflects Koma’s signature structured designs, and inspired by the metal sculptures of William Pye, a technically-crafted cylindrical silver trimmed body-con dress accompanied by a backless metal tube waist belt are just a taster of what’s to come. “David epitomises the directional but feminine look that appeals to our Topshop girl,” the store’s senior buying director, Rachel Proud, tells Vogue UK. “It was important for the collection to stay true to the luxe element of his work, and to do this we needed to use premium fabrics and his signature shapes and metalwork. Fans of David’s work will not be disappointed.” The Central Saint Martins graduate got his first stylistic recognition after having won the college’s Best Womenswear Collection in 2007, followed by the Fashion Scout Merit Award and, this season, receiving NEWGEN sponsorship; it looks like Toppers are onto a winner again. ”Topshop signifies youth and modernity and its spirit evokes ‘cool London,’” says Koma. “It was really exciting to work with the Topshop team as I felt they understood me as a designer and appreciated my need to make a high quality product without compromising the design aesthetic, quality of fabric or finishing. They helped make my vision a reality and I’m thrilled with the result.” But if you want to grab a slick slice of Koma we suggest getting your skates on – the collection consists of five unique pieces, with just thirty of each available in stores and online.

Kate Moss in Topshop

It’s sad but true – Kate Moss has launched her last ever collection for high street favourite Topshop, and hosting a preview for shoppers on Monday night at the Oxford Circus flagship, she made it one to remember. In true fashion icon style, the 36-year-old supermodel certainly didn’t disappoint in the wardrobe department. Wearing a custom-designed silver Lurex jumpsuit – complements of the Topshop design studio – the mum-of-one went her separate ways with Toppers in a blaze of nostalgic glory. The plunging neckline, flared tailoring and glitter embellishment on the jumpsuit paid homage to the disco diva era of the Seventies – heck, even the King himself would be jealous of this ensemble – much like her final offering for the store. The British super dressed the look with black strappy sandals and patent clutch – all together a very vamp and ultra stylish outfit. After all, would you expect anything less? Let’s just hope Kate doesn’t veer to far from the British high street… we’re waiting on her collab with Uncle Phil’s daughter.
