Norma Kamali Ski Pants

Tuesday, October 16th, 2007

Norma Kamali Ski PantsThe ski holiday season is approaching and I am on the look out for some flattering ski wear. Heading to the Alps, the Andes or the Rockies? Find an outfit that will ooze glamour because deciding where to ski is just a small matter as oppose to deciding what to wear on those white slopes that make your skin glow.

I’ve found some great ski pants by Norma Kamali For Everlast. These charcoal cotton blend pants with a roll down waistband are comfortable, slimming and look rather warm. But the best part, they are down from £120 to £48 … Bargain! Get your Norma Kamali for Everlast Cotton ski pants before they sell out or go back to full price from Net-a-porter.


Celeb Fashion Fix

Leather & Swarovski Choker DressA-list style at high street prices; what more could you ask for? This stunning dress was worn by Kym Ryder at TV Quick Awards, and Gorgeous Couture has just come up with a new and improved version. This Leather & Swarovski Choker Dress looks amazing, it has a leather based choker that is encrusted with Swarovski diamantes.

It is a backless dress which really gives it sex appeal and it is available in a variety of colours including baby pink, champagne, red and coral. It is on sale for £165 at the moment so girls you need to get in quick before it’s too late.

£165 for a dress is a bit out of my price range so I’m just going to have to put it on my wish list. Visit gorgeouscouture.com to purchase this stunning creation.


Herve Leger’s ‘Bandage’ Dress

Sunday, September 16th, 2007

Herve LegerHerve Leger introduced the ‘bandage’ dress to the fashion world; this style of dress celebrates the female form by smoothing and shaping the female silhouette to create a glamorous and seductive look.

River Island Bandage DressThe Leger label was at his best in the 1980’s, however fall 2007 sees the return of the label and I can’t wait to see his new collection! Leger definitely designs for the more confident woman who loves her curves and is not afraid of flaunting them. So if you fit into this category be sure to check out his collection at Net a Porter and check out the Herve Leger Bandage dress.

If you love the ‘bandage’ dress look but can’t quite stretch to the designer price tag, I’ve spotted a cheeky bargain that might interest you from River Island! For £29.99 this metallic grey dress could be yours! Good hey?!

Esprit Leather BootsEspirit has recently brought in a whole new stock of clothes and shoes, and they’re really worth taking a look at. This pair of elegant leather ankle boots are just the start of what is on offer. In a gorgeous lipstick red they are real eye catchers; a great style boot to be worn under trousers or over a pair of skinny jeans.

They have a wide brim that sits just above your ankle, a bow at the back and a cute tartan interior. They are available from Esprit for £59.99 or you can visit their website and browse all of their latest fashion statements. I’m sure I will be seeing you at the tills.

All Saints Are Online!

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

Goth CardiganFinally All Saints have their very own website! This means we no longer have to traipse around looking for that ‘must have’ dress or ‘to die for’ shoes we can do it all from the comfort of our homes. I have always been a huge fan of All Saints clothing as their collections ooze with clever pattern cutting and draping techniques that brings something unique and irreplaceable to the High street.

At present there is 50% off UK shipping if you order from the site, however it is only for a limited period so be quick! I wouldn’t say the site is that fantastic at the moment as it only features the few remaining sale items but I’m sure it won’t disappoint when they begin to show their new Autumn/Winter collection, so keep your eyes peeled! In the meantime there are a few bargains to be bought, for example this Goth cardigan reduced from £70 to £35!Not bad!


Sweet Sailor Dress - Half Price!

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

image1l1.jpgASOS still have loads of great items left in their up to 75% off sale. Last week I ordered a bargain pair of leopard print wedges for only £12.00. They arrived this morning and I was so pleased with them that I went straight back on the website to see what else I could pick up in the sale.

There were lots of great summer dresses and as it looks like we might be finally getting some rays I ordered a couple of bright coloured printed slip dresses. But one dress in particular really caught my eye as it’s so different from most of the prints out there at the moment. This cute 50’s inspired dress looks more like a two piece with white cotton skirt section and jersey style top.

I love the heart buttons and the cute white straps….but the best thing about its is its almost half price at 44 pounds… now I just need to find some bargain heels to match.


Big Reductions at Urban Outfitters Boutique!!

Monday, July 16th, 2007

Vanessa Bruno Athe DressHurrah! the Vanessa Bruno Athe dress I’ve had my eye on at the Urban Outfitters Boutique has finally gone on sale! I’m so glad I didn’t pay the full £135 for it now – even if it was worth it. Eighty pounds is much more reasonable!

I just love the asymmetrical slash neck, the loose waist and the short tight skirt. It’s definitely a very sexy dress. I’m sure it’s going to become my new favourite clubbing outfit.

I think this dress is also very safari so if you are off to Kenya or somewhere similar this year this would be a great thing to pack. In fact the Vanessa Bruno Athe range is full of stylish summer designs in earthy colours and they are all on sale, you can get the silk tank dress for £80 reduced from £190! That’s a pretty amazing saving but larger sizes are running out so be quick!


The Bag Everyone’s Wearing

Friday, June 29th, 2007

The New It Bag

The new IT bag plastered with the slogan “I’M NOT A PLASTIC BAG” is flying off the shelves this month. Keira Knightley, Ivanka Trump and Petra Nemcova are all carrying around the replacement carrier bag like it’s their new best friend! It is made by Anya Hindmarch’s and costs just $15 - bargain. It is reusable therefore much more friendly to the environment.

Via Life and Style.


Fantastic Sale at ASOS.com

Monday, April 16th, 2007

ASOS SaleI have just been over to ASOS.com to look for a dress for a party next weekend and they have got the most amazing sale on; I think it ends today so get in quick while you still can. Some items are up to 75% off and many ½ half price and it’s not like a normal high street sale; they actually have some really great items in the clearance section.

Leopard Print ShoesThese leopard print shoes are now just £15 reduced from £30, they are so cute and have a little black bow at the back to finish off the style; how nice would they look with a little black dress and matching leopard print clutch bag! I think the shoe section has the most variety but there are some great dresses and accessories as well.

Woven White Tassel BagThis white tassel bag in the style of Jessica Alba is now just £10 reduced from £25; what a bargain! I almost bought a similar one just a few weeks ago from River Island but am so glad I didn’t now; this one is so much nicer and 1/3rd of the price.

Visit ASOS.com for more great sale items.
