Autumn outfit

The time has come to partake in the shoe switch over. My boxes of winter shoes and boots have been waiting patiently under the bed until their season. We have been graced with fog, rain and a damp atmosphere for the past week and its pretty damn depressing. This outfit was put together last week when we still had some sunshine!
I like the seasonal colours with the tweed. There is a lot of tweed in the shops and the moment, for both men and women.

Gold pumps : Topshop
Tweed Trousers : New Look
Top : Boutique in Sheffield
Jacket : New Look
Bag : Boutique in Stamford
Spike hair tie : H&M

Love for Louboutins

If I could buy a pair of Christian Louboutin's every week, I would be an extremely happy, and lucky girl. French designer Louboutin has a shoe for everyone, from classic and understated to rich and full of glitz. The acclaimed red leather sole is recognised worldwide and can been adorned on just about every celebrities foot that steps onto the red carpet. I am lucky enough to have been bought a pair of Louboutins from my husband, and definitely want to add to my collection. Louboutins are timeless and classic and with the correct tlc, they could last you a lifetime!
Here are a few of my favourites from the new collection!

Kate Moss : My style Icon!

Kate Moss has been my absolute icon for as long as I can remember. I love just about everything about her, and the fact that she was never the 'perfect' supermodel, makes her even more desirable!
Moss was born in 1974 in the un glamorous city of Croydon, UK, and was discovered 14 years later at JFK Airport by the founder of Storm Model Management, Sarah Doukas.
Moss's career began thanks to photographer Corrine Day, who shot black and white photographs of her for The Face magazine when she was just 16.
Her career sky rocketed after this shoot and everyone wanted a piece of Kate. She became part of the supermodel elite, but in contrast to the curvaceous figures of Cindy Crawford, Claudia Schiffer and Naomi Campbell.
Kate Moss will go down in history as being one of the worlds biggest models and her career is still going strong 24 years on.
I am lucky enough to have one of the original copies of her book - Kate. It's a beautiful picture book of some of the most famous photos ever taken of Moss. A true collectible.
Here are some of my most favourite photographs of my fashion icon!

LFW: Burberry Show 2013

The Burberry Fashion Show at London Fashion Week, was by far my most favourite. The front row was littered with Brits with Andy Murray and Harry Styles trying stealing the limelight.

Burberry's Chief Creative Director (aka, designer!) described the collection as "a little bit sassier, a little bit sexier, and a little bit more joyful". The collection was Inspired by a 100 year old image of Burberry capes and corsets from its archive.
Underneath the iconic Burberry Mac were metallic corsets and ruched Bridget Jones style knickers. No Burberry show was complete without the famous trench coat and as every season, it was re vamped and remixed with rich deep colours, with a variation of materials.

Here I've hand picked some of my favourite outfits from the show! Including my boy band crush, Mr Harry Styles!
