Olivia Palermo At Wimbledon

Olivia Palermo was spotted at Wimbledon today looking beautiful in blue. She's probably one of the only people who can actually wear three shades of the same colour at the same time, without looking like a tonal disaster. With the addition of dark sunnies and long bob, Olivia reminds me of a young Anna Wintour.

Natalia for Etam A/W 11....eh?!

Yes, you may be thinking what a weird combination, just like I was when I heard about this collaboration, but it's true. One of the world's most famous supermodels (and my personal favourite) Natalia Vodianova has partnered up with high street retailer Etam, to design a line of lingerie and I have to say, I'm really rather impressed.  Vintage inspired designs of frilly lace, satin and soft cotton work together to create a solid collection, providing something for everyone. I think the teal, high-waisted number is my favourite.

Orange, Yellow & All Things Mellow

As the sun's been stubborn this summer and decided not to shine, celebrities have taken it upon themselves to make this month bright. Yellow and orange are most certainly back in the brightest of forms!

Coloured Skinnies

When Kate Moss was spotted sporting a pair of drainpipes a few years ago she sparked off a frenzy in the jean world. One which not only the fashion conscious would embrace but also which most of the young female AND male population would adopt. I am a true skinny jeans fan and reach for them on many a morning. Although skinnies are very much still 'in', colour is what it's all about in 2011. 

This trend made an appearance a few seasons ago but never entirely took off. Now it's back and all the celebs have been spotted wearing one colour or another. Some have opted for brighter hues, cobalt blues, fuchsia pinks and pillar-box reds included. However, others have chosen slightly less attention seeking shades. Whitney Port is constantly being photographed in the new seasons trends and here she is showing off those fabulous legs in a gorgeous pair of peach skinnies. Whitney also shows how to pull off the double-denim trend with ease by pairing her skinnies with a loosely fitted dark denim shirt.

It's The Little Things

Egerton House Hotel, Knightsbridge

I couldn't help but snap a few of the gorgeous features surrounding me on a location shoot the other week. I now want to paint birds across my ceiling, something tells me they won't look as good as this though. Click on the link above to see the hotel in all its glory.

Hampton Court Happiness

A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of visiting Hampton Court so I thought I'd share a few of my sights with you lovely people. The building and it's surroundings were breathtaking and the interiors really encapsulated the buildings historic background.

Monday Must-Haves!

THE BLAZER

This coral cropped blazer had been featured in various magazines over the past couple of weeks and I have to say I loved it from the start.  The only thing stopping me from handing over my cash is that I have a tendency to need a sufficient amount of reasoning behind my purchases, so that the overwhelming feel  of guilt does not consume me. It's weird i know, but I've been known to impulse buy then return the item the next day because of my growing guilt. However, having resisted the temptation to buy this jacket for quite a few weeks I have finally come to the conclusion that I will be unhappy without it in my life! The fact that it would brighten up any outfit or dull day also helps.

THE SANDALS

These sandals are on my must-have list purely because I think they will complete any summer outfit. Whether it's a pair of cropped jeans, loosely tapered trousers, daisy duke's or a maxi dress these sandals will suit.

H&M AW11 Preview

A fringed dress is a glamorous way of adding a touch of the twenties to your night out.

An oversized parka is at the top of my list as an absolute winter wardrobe must-have. It's perfect for throwing on at the weekend and the added faux fur trim will help you cope with even the snowiest of days. 

The layered cape coat is the fashionista's coat of choice and will without a doubt turn heads (in a good way of course). Pair with a patterned mini dress and thick tights to help add a little drama.

Layers are a great way to keep warm and cosy once those autumn leaves start falling. Wear for a Sunday roast with the family.
