Ideal Christmas Presents for Her: PART 1



Do you want clothes for Christmas? But you can't really find anything that catches your eye? Well listen hear to find out where and what clothes to get for Christmas.

Topshop- Good for heavy knits which is good for Christmas because Topshop are really trendy with their knits and the 'knit' is really thick and heavy, so it will keep you warm. Topshop are pretty much good for everything!

Jack Wills- Amazing for everything especially coats as they are really cute and warm. Although they are expensive, Jack Wills items are worth every penny.

This season; winter jumpers are so cute. Buy a novelty one ( a knitted jumper with some kind of winter embellishment; such as a Christmas tree on the front or snowballs around the collar). Also knitted crops seem to be really popular. I don't particularly like them but it depends on the colour, how short it is and the design. Try to get a neutral colour like grey or white or black and pair it with plain blue jeans and a plain top underneath. Also get one that's long-sleeved and sits just below the belly button. Big cables or romantic writing like kiss...kiss...kiss ( inspiration from Topshop!). My sister recently brought one. It was grey, had cables, is long-sleeved and sits just below the belly button. She paired it with faded flared jeans, a light blue t-shirt underneath and some cute earrings with matching bracelets. It looked really classy so try to stick with what I've advised you.

Now, if you're getting clothes for Christmas make sure you get it from an expensive shop (that's why I suggested Topshop and Jack Wills) because someone is getting you it for Christmas, a cheap-and-cheerful one will be a waste of money. Plus next Christmas that person might not get you one because you didn't make it last!

Miley's Super-Hot Dress!



Yesterday at the AMA's, ( American Music Awards) Miley was seen wearing a beautiful Marchesa dress. As you can see in the picture, it is a white 'mummy' mini dress with a dramatic train. Some people say it looks to old for a 18 year old. She paired her 'mummy' mini with stunning Neil Lane jewellery and Christian Louboutin sequin heels. Also she wore red nail varnish and gorgeous glossy hair. Recently her hair has been looking frizzy and out-of-control, but at there it looks really shiny, smooth and volumized. She later performed ' who owns my heart'. I LOVE that song!!!! Well her birthday is tomorrow ( Tuesday 23rd November 2010) so ...... HAPPY BIRTHDAY MILEY!!

The Hot New SHOE: LOUIS VUITTON PUMPS!



These are so lady-like and smart looking you could almost where them everywhere! Even though the heel is 6 inches! Kristin Davis ( who was yesterday seen on the red carpet wearing them) says they are really hard to walk in because the heel is really chunky and the front of the shoe is really flat. They look so cute, don't they? They come in so many colours; blue velvet with gold heel, black velvet with black heel and loads more! The shoe in the picture is a very Christmas-spirit shoe so wear them at your Christmas party! The only thing is with these shoes it doesn't really say 'Louis Vuitton' anywhere apart from inside the shoe.

What do I wear with them:
  • A plain knee-length skirt that is the same colour as the velvet on the shoe.
  • A mid-sleeve fitted blazer that comes in a neutral colour eg. beige, nude
  • A plain mid-length sleeve top.
  • Instead of a skirt and top go for a LBD make sure it is mid-knee and mid-length sleeve.
Who has been seen wearing them:
  • Kristin Davis
  • Alexa Chung
  • Kate Moss
  • Ashley Olsen
  • Doutzen Kroes
  • Adriana Lima
  • Dita Von Teese
  • Carey Mulligan
  • Victoria Beckham
  • Olivia Palermo
  • Blake Lively
  • Leighton Meester
  • Annalynne McCord

Is This Girl The New Jimmy Choo?


OUCH! Try walking on those metal skyscrapers! Shoe designer Chau Har Lee has suddenly got a packed diary. Kate Moss recently called in a pair of her skyscraper, made-to-order shoes for a photo-shoot, American Vogue editor Anna Wintour has viewed her collection and CNN has been clamouring for an interview. Chau is 30 years old and finished her MA last year, but she's being hailed as the UK's most promising new shoe designer. As well as winning an award to exhibit at London Fashion Week, she's also a star of Room 6, the luxury lounge in Selfridges new shoe galleries. Alongside Balenciaga and Christian Louboutin , you'll find Chau's 'Eng' ( the shoes above - 'Eng' is the name!) leather shoe with its killer, 12cm stainless-steel heel. Inspiration for her heel-less heels, acrylic wedges and wooden platforms comes from futuristic '60s designers like Pierre Cardin, but Chau doesn't have a highbrow fashion background -she grew up in central London council flat. "I wasn't really a fashion kid, but I've always enjoyed making things, with five children, there wasn't much money growing up. My mum taught us to be really resourceful- we'd make doll's houses and play with scraps and threads. She used to do dressmaking, and taught me sewing." Her mum wanted her to grow up like a traditional Chinese lady. Her mum is from South Korea and her dad is from the Philippines. " I never expected or actually wanted to be what I am today but I love my success and intend to stick to my career. I have meant some amazing people and I would just like to say thank you for the people that helped me get to where I am today." Check out Chau Har Lee's designs on Google or other search engines. Type in Chau Har Lee then either 'Eng', 'Jes', 'Hoy' or 'Yuk'. Please take a look! By the way the first picture is 'Hoy' and the second is Chau wearing 'Eng'. 'Eng' costs £1,500! Want to buy a pair!!!!???

Look Of The Day: Taylor Swift in Z Spoke By Zac Posen


Taylor Swift is having a whirlwind week. She's due to perform at the Country Music Awards this evening, just a day after taking home the award for Songwriter of the Year at Nashville's 58th Annual BMI
Taylor even looked like a winner in a sparkling Z Spoke by Zac Posen bustier dress. The halter cut perfectly suited Taylor's slim frame, helping to add curves in all the right places. The singer matched the glitz of the dress with her usual beauty look: dark, dramatic eyeliner, a soft, retro updo and delicate diamond drop earrings. I think she always looks nice personally but she always wears the same type of thing. Short, flowy dresses with her signature oxford shoes.
