Greek Goddess Bride Style

Choosing your 'look' for your wedding day can be difficult, particularly if you're anything like me, and your normal look is pretty thrown together. With two wedding days to plan, I was lucky enough to try two different bridal styles, although both ended up pretty similar {hair up, hair down!}. Whether you're thinking sleek and sexy, or boho and feminine, consider this gorgeous Grecian bride style. With a simple bouquet of olive branches, and an elegant leafy crown, plus a divine Samuelle Couture wedding gown, you're good to go - no need even for shoes! Fabulous styling by Kelly Oshiro, incredible pictures by the lovely Jose Villa.

Styling Tricks Just Off The Runway To Try Now!



As London Fashion Week draws to an end I've been keeping track of all the fresh styling tricks hot off the runway that we can use now! The weather isn't getting any warmer so its all about layering to keep cosy. Get ahead of the pack and try out some of A/W 15's styling tricks now!




Try layering your negligee like Rag and Bone.  This look has a real 90's feel about it. Tailored cropped trousers and long sleeve fine knits create the perfect base and finish the look with a tailored or sports luxe coat and playful pointed Mary-Jane's. If your nightwear is more rag than Rag & Bone shop some here




Lots of designers found new ways to wear your scarf. Proenza Schouler went 50 Shades of Grey and and bound their models arms to their bodies. Restrictive but cosy. Try a snood for this effect. 




Victorian ruffle neck blouses are set to be the key piece for next season. Rev up the sex appeal like Altuzarra by unbuttoning the middle section and pairing it with your hottest plunge neck or thigh split dress. You can also work it into your work wardrobe under a classic trousers suit! For anyone who doesn't own one already they are 10 a penny in vintage stores or try these beauties in Zara here and here.




Another way to freshen up your work look is to wear a cosy zip neck anorak underneath a la Rag & Bone. Storm Juno won't even be cause for shivers when you're wrapped up in that sartorial sleeping bag!




Fur scarves are perfect winter warmers try tucking yours into a skinny belt like at Jason Wu to create a more streamline silhouette. Get a fab shearling wrap for the look here.




J Crew always have some styling gems up their sleeve and this season was no different. I've already tried this look and not only is it warm but its looks enviably stylish! Just pop a shirt denim or otherwise under any jumpsuit for a sleek look.




Sick of wearing your thigh highs over your jeans? Try wearing them with your favourite midi skirt, its practical, polished and fresh and so Marc Jacobs. There won't be a single Pretty Woman remark to be heard.




Give your leather pencil skirt the uptown funk treatment by tucking an over sized graphic hoodie into the waistband and another round the waist like they did at McQ.




Belt or tuck your lushest fringed silk scarf and wear as a top for showstopping evening wear like at Marchesa and J Mendel. For a daytime look layer with blazers and over coats and the effortless cool of J Crew.




This look from Vivienne Westwood Red label is to die for. The work wear inspired boots and knotted cardigan give this glam look a devil may care attitude.




Fur ascots are the sartorial equivalent to the McVities chocolate digestive ads with the fluffy kittens, who doesn't want in on a little bit of that cuddly magic? Zac Posen did. Keep draughts out and chic cuddles in with these.




I can't wait to give this Elie Tahari trick a go… Fingerless leather gloves over knitted regular gloves! Genius!




 Get more wear out of your sequin party dress by layering it over a shirt dress for everyday wear. We might have to wait for the weather to get milder before we bare our legs but this look packs a punch in personality.

A Detail-Filled Londonl Little Venice Wedding: Part 3

It's time lovely ladies, it's time for the wedding details! I meant to post this last night be jetlag got the better of me. However it means I've been particularly {if accidentally} good at suspense-building. There are so many wedding details pictured in these fabulous Caught the Light wedding pictures, you're going to be slightly blown away. It's a DIY bride's fantasy wedding! Take a look at all the paper decorations, from the handmade origami swan chandeliers, to the striped straw flags and boat place markers. I'm loving the colourful bright theme, the wonderful array of different flower blooms in little vases and the wire table numbers. With blue-striped napkins, a Catch of the Day basket for wedding wishes, a net capturing Lynda and Blair's friends' pictures, and little messages in bottles as favours, every wedding detail is in keeping with the nautical theme. I think I'm in love! Huge thanks to ChloƩ Browne from Caught the Light for her fabulous pictures. Don't miss the fabulousness that was Part 2, and Part 1!

A Detail-Filled London Little Venice Wedding: Part 2

When it comes to wedding transport, it doesn't get much more original than a traditional London barge! But when gorgeous couple Lynda and Blair celebrated their wedding in Maida Vale, it made perfect sense to use the canals around Little Venice to transport their guests from the ceremony venue to the wedding reception at the waterside restaurant, The Summerhouse. I'm loving how Lynda decorated the barge with pompoms {tutorial here}, bunting and paper-hearts. All these wedding decorations are super-easy to DIY - why not get a group of your girlfriends together for a big crafting night before your big day? With personalised button badges and fans as favours, and nautical red and white ribbon decorating the vases, Lynda and Blair's wedding planner, Rebecca at Harlequin & Romance thought of every wedding detail! Huge thanks to ChloƩ Browne from Caught the Light for her fabulous pictures. Click back later today for the wedding detail-fest that is Part 3, and click here for Part 1!

A Detail-Filled London Little Venice Wedding: Part 1

London brides are going to love this inspirational Little Venice wedding. There are so many wedding details, I've had to split it into three posts - it's a Before the Big Day record! Gorgeous couple Lynda and Blair chose to get married in a local registry office, before taking a barge down the canal {how cool is that!}, to The Summerhouse in Maida Vale for their wedding reception. It's the first time I've seen a barge used as wedding transport, and I love the idea! Lynda carried the watery theme throughout her wedding day, with tonnes of cute nautical wedding details - pictures coming soon in Part 2 and 3 later today. In these shots I'm mostly loving Lynda's elegant Jenny Packham wedding dress, her gorgeous chignon with glittery jewel hair-piece, and her yellow arum lilies bouquet. Blair looks equally dapper in his red tie and matching auburn arum lily buttonhole. Don't miss Lynda's bridesmaids' pretty dresses - the subtle button details are another nod to the nautical theme. Huge thanks to ChloƩ Browne from Caught the Light for her fabulous pictures - ChloƩ was my wedding photographer as well, so she's my favourite! Click back later today for more!
