  • Trends: Back Strap, Cut-out Dresses
    Young celebs have been spotted around town baring their backs in cut out or back-strap frocks recently. Something about the allusion to undergarments makes the look daring and very sexy.

  • Shopping: Summer Tank Supply
    I basically live in tank tops in the summer. Because of this, I have to replenish my supply every year (I tend to wear them down pretty good and then they enter my gym wear rotation). My go-to places for affordable basic solid tanks where I can grab a few in different colours without having to spend too much and that I can just throw on and layer are Target.

  • Most Wanted: My new skirt
    There is no greater joy than the discovery of one item of clothing which combines everything you have been lusting after into one beautiful little package. What makes my thrifty little magpie eyes even wider is when said item is found like a needle in a haystack, somewhere you wouldn’t usually look and, icing on the fashion cake, for only £25.

  • Aminaka Wilmont Mannequin Dress: I Don’t Get it!
    I was shopping around online today and came across this Aminaka Wilmont dress and was absolutely baffled. At initial glance, I only saw the dress-form outline and thought that there might have been a mistake on the website.

  • Shopping: See by Chloé Printed collar t-shirt
    This spring and summer are going to be all about citrus bright tones, but these attention-grabbing colours aren’t for everyone. Whether you feel you can’t pull off a fuschia top or a lemon yellow dress, or you simply don’t enjoy such flashy colours, there are still ways to incorporate these hues into your wardrobe in subtle ways.

  • Editors Picks: Kate Moss for Topshop Spring 08
    The fifth collection from the Kate Moss for Topshop line hits stores today. As with previous collections, the design team at Topshop have taken their cue from Kate’s wardrobe. The result? 50’s inspired dresses, floral and star prints, hints of lace, vintage inspired pieces, skinny jeans (no surprise), a couple of micro hotpants, and a confusing, fringed suede waistcoat....

  • Distinctive Dresses: Vintage Couture by Karen Zambos
    Call me crazy, but I just love finding clothes that make me go ‘huh?’ when I see them for the first time on a hanger. The pieces could have intricate straps that criss-cross, be draped in ways that are tough to figure out, or have interesting design elements that don’t seem to go together at initial glance, but might just work when worn with confidence.
