British Heritage Trends A/W 2010


I'm head-over-heels in love with Michael Herz's A/W 2010 collection at Aquascutum. The clever boy has managed to retain the traditional virtues of the fashion house (think camel coats and tailoring), while mixing in modern elements such as fit-and-flare belted jackets, long fluted skirts and a golden maxi day dress to die for.
Jaeger, Paul Smith Women (and even the blinging Julien MacDonald), were all bashing out classic looks that fused simplistic shapes with soft tailoring.
Belt up in an embroidered coat; slip on chunky roll-necks teamed with ankle gazing skirts and sherling-lined boots... Hmmm, AND there’s no need to wait till Autumn - it's bloody freezing outside!

Bag some grey socks from John Lewis (a pack of 3 for £4) and wear with jeans and heels, bare-legged with flirty frocks and city shorts, with Converse pumps and MORE for instant cool-girl style credentials.

Alexa Chung's daily fashion hit...


I'm seriously digging Alexa Chung's 'Today I'm Wearing' blog: every day the stylish model/presenter/cover girl and SO ON treats us to a run down of her daily outfits by sending Vogue.com a picture from her phone.
I strongly advise checking out Chung's fashionable pics AFTER you've left the house or you'll find yourself changing your outfit again and again and AGAIN; missing your bus/train and totally pis**** your boss off (yes, even if you do work in the fashion industry).

Listen up boys, Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and if you plan on impressing the girl of your dreams then some seriously fashionable and loveable jewellery is in order. Wait, don’t fret – I’ve taken the trouble to put together a failsafe guide for you - just call me Cupid.

Could this golden heart ring by Annina Vogel be any sweeter? Slip this onto your girl’s finger and I guarantee a smile or three; or what about these Zoe & Morgan ‘My Darling’ heart earrings... sometimes it’s worth spelling it out. Finally, give your girl the key to your heart (how am I doing on clichés?) with this Key charm bangle – all of which are available NOW at Matchesfashion.com – go on, what are you waiting for!
