A cros breed between high tops and wedges

No Comments »

Have you wondered what it would be like to wear trainers that can look just as classy as heels? Well, no need to wonder because, recently I have spotted these shoes all over the shops, but finding the right pair can be very difficult. I first spotted these  in the June issue of Instyle Magazine when I was flicking through the pages to see what the latests trends were. Although I must be honest, I did think they were super ugly oriniginally, but when I saw it on other people such as Cheryl Cole, I thought it looked really good. Maybe its the way she styled the outfit with the shoes that made it look nice, but whatever it was, it looked damn good. My favourite pair was this multicoloured Marc Jacobs one that I thought was really unique and interesting, but most high street stores that are ahead of the game and already have them in store (e.g. H&M, Forever 21) seem to mainly have them  in beige and black for some reason. I'm sure there will be more of them popping up in the popular highstreet stores, so if you're thinking "well I want a more exciting colour than beige and black" I'm sure there are other colours around, they are just waiting to be discovered. 
If you are still very puzzled as to what I'm ranting on about, then take a look at some images below.

I don't know what it is, but summer always seems to trigger major sales in all the high street stores, but you know what, I LOVE it! 
Even though the weather hasn't quite been up to scratch this summer (although the past 2 days have been really hot and packed with feel-good weather), high street store lovers are not letting the weather stop them from buying all the essential items for summer. 
Now if you are wondering what stores are having these so called amazing sales, then here are a list of stores I have noticed that seem to be having in-store and online sales:

  • Republic
  • Select
  • Jane Norman 
  • River Island
  • Karen Millen
  • H&M
  • Miss Selfridge
  • Topshop   
So if you're planning on having a major shopping spree, be sure to head over to the stores listed. 


Here are some of my personal favourite items from the stores listed.

Celebrity Style Inspiration: Jennifer Lopez

Today's celebrity style inspiration was chosen mainly because, today is Jennifer Lopez's birthday. So happy birthday Jennifer! :-)
Her style has evolved from an urban, hip, cool type of style to a classical, chic and experimental style. Now she is all grown up, her style has grown along with her, making her style very polished yet, daring.

2 Comments »

I don't know if any of you have noticed but, there seems to be a new popular hair style roaming around around the streets of all the major cities in the world and S/S catwalks. That's right, the dip dye and ombre hair style revolution has begun. Its been seen on many celebrities such as Ciara, Lauren Conrad and Demi Lavato and also on many bloggers lately. This is probably because, it gives people a fresh look even when they might be having a bad hair day. Check it out

Celebrity Style Inspiration: Kim Kardashian

1 Comment »

Today's Celebrity Style Inspiration is.. Kim Kardashian 
Many of you may not know this but, I have adored Kim K's style for a very long time now. Her style is always polished and chic to perfection that she hardly ever has any fashion slip-ups. Although recently she has been given a bit of a bad name for getting divorced after 72 days of marriage, she has automatically gained her status as the ultimate fashionista (although some may disagree) with all her statement dresses that she has been wearing whiles travelling across Europe for various projects. Well done Kim, you came back and you're ready to take over the fashion industry.

Take a look at  just some of her amazing outfits that she has worn over the past few months...

 kim-kardashian Alexander McQueen Crochet-embroidered silk-organza jacket
kim-kardashian Roland Mouret Anabelle Double Wool Crepe Dress
 kim-kardashian Siwy Mick Pants in Speechless
kim-kardashian Givenchy Peplum Dress
  
kim-kardashian J Brand Quatro Leather Pant 
kim-kardashian Gucci Party Dress With A Key Hole Neckline

Today's celebrity style inspiration is... Eva Longoria. Now we all know that she is an amazing actress who was a former cast member of the hit US show Desperate Housewives which has sadly ended *cries*, but maybe some of you have not admired her style as much as I have. If you do admire her style then you will definitely know that she has a sensation sense of style. See for yourself...
