Sigh Alber Elbaz this post is for you.
How I anticipated your collection for H&M, I longed for the chance to get my hands on something from one of my favourite designers; can you guess how disappointed I was when I saw this collection?? VERY DISAPPOINTED
I’m in tears as I write this as I feel I am betraying Lanvin but I will be avoiding H&M for a while, seriously folks I can’t believe I’m going to say this but this collection is as disappointing as the Sonia Rykiel collection?! I mean when I heard that news break I was upset with H&M for that collaboration. (My memory is awash with striped madness, bleugh)
Alber I still love your work dearly, I just choose to ignore this collection. Readers in thy blogosphere am I being too harsh? I’ve shown you the best of the bunch below, share your thoughts (or shed your tears here all is welcome)

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGH its O-fricking-ffically winter in London. As you can tell I'm not too pleased but my little ray of sunshine for today is that i won something for the very first time in my life!!!! It came in the post today oh the excitement of ripping the packaging away, then like something out of a Indiana jones movie the prize glowed just enough to highlight my eyes. And there it was my prize………………………..
6 delicious bars of chocolate! Ok you may smile thinking it was something else but I have never won anything in my life and i won the best prize ever by topping up credit on my mobile.
Ok to go on to other matters that may benefit your lives (although i feel a win for me is a win for us all, don’t you?) is my new found wonder mascara.
It’s the Maybelline colossal volume express one, all i can say is WOOWZER! My lashes are naturally thick but short and with no curl, this really lengthens and kinda curls them too in one coat, two coats seriously defines them. I'm no fan of mascara that looks to full on(you know the spidery spiked lashes) so it’s perfect for me and the times i really want to make my eyes pop I’ll just use two/three coats. Now granted I don’t always use mascara, but i have tried L'oreal, MAC, Bobbi brown, Clarins, Revlon and Benefit so i do know what I'm talking about and it works for me.
Try it out for yourselves i think it was £7. Go on your worth it (hahahaha so cheesy)

Hello fashion junkies, just a quick post today.
I simply adore the fact people are really trying out new things, pushing their own style boundaries and I wanted to share my new found love for mix and matching different textures and materials.
I was walking through the high street yesterday, as i passed the window displays I noticed all the different styles we were being offered, from ruffles to shag pile carpet jumpers, literally fashion for three of our senses, sight, sound and touch. I found myself picking up things that don't initially match but somehow they work well together. You know it shouldn't stop in your clothing try it with makeup too! I've given my example and i really think it works, try it out yourselves lemme know how it goes.
Much luv

Issue 1
Welcome to the very first C look!
I will review every trend out there, give you hints on shopping guides and tips on how to wear the latest fashion.
Today its:
Fall work wear is all about texture and proportions but the main thing here is keeping it simple. Play with different trouser styles from wide-leg to tapered and skinny. The length of skirt is also a key trend, try maxi or midi skirts in tweeds/wool. Layers are very on trend try a smart jumper, with a blouse and a belt worn at the waist.
Accessories: It is winter after all so the obvious scarves and belts apply. But the important thing here is the type of textile. I say leather gloves are important here try gloves in browns/black. In terms of scarves think granddad/gran type scarves rather than chunky scarves, think argyles, silk/satin or even fur works well. Belts can either be super slim worn at the waist or chunky man belts worn at the hips. Bags are either inspired by menswear (satchels) or they are very lady like, rather than going for the standard black bag, try charcoal grey, navy or dark green.
Footwear: Heels are chunkier (amen we have comfortable heels), brogues are still in season, clog sandal have become clog boots. Avoid stilettoes think comfortable/androgynous smart footwear.
Colours include: pale and dark blues, greys, rust, maroon and deep shades of red.
Shopping guide: ZARA rules here, they really know how to rock work wear. For cheap/simple knitwear try PRIMARK or H&M (Try h&m for tops and blazers), COS are also offering a good range of well-tailored coats and simple tops. ASOS are also offering a good range of trousers and skirts. Best place for shoes is TOPSHOP and ALDO. I’m not a personal fan of Next but they do offer a wide range of work wear I’d say it’s best to shop there if you’re 35+(yrs old).
