For the love of Maxi.


18ANDEAST are fast becoming one of my favourite fashion lines.  They are a breath of fresh air from the currently regurgitated high street we've come to know.  Starting off as a vintage brand, their clothing line takes elements from the vintage world, mixing it with current season trends.  The S/S11 collection has a distinctive Festival ready vibe to it.  I now own three dresses and my latest purchase, could quite possibly be my favourite.  

£32

This is the Dip Dyed Fringed Maxi dress and she's an absolute beaut.  It's made from jersey and had a tie at the waist which is great to cinch in the waist.  My favourite feature, of course, has to be the dip dyed fringing on the neckline.  


Taking on two trends at once, this is quite a striking neckline.  When I first saw this I thought it was perhaps styled with a statement necklace.  

I'll be wearing this through the summer with my denim jacket over the top with gladiator sandals or heels.  I think it will still be quite cool to wear next season, teaming it with a chunky knit or a black studded biker jacket.  

Celebrities are also fans of the brands with the likes of Katie Piper and Eliza Doolittle sporting them to events.  Check out more of 18ANDEAST's clothing here.

Pixie Lott get Lipsy.


The blonde bombshell from Essex (shaaat appp!) brings us her second collection in partnership with Lipsy to spice up our Summer wardrobes.  Today see's the launch both in stores and online, and as I can't get to a store today I've been eyeing up the collection over at Lipsy.co.uk.  The Photoshoot is as gorgeous as the clothing!


As you can probably guess, I have a wishlist already which includes, wait you may need to sit down for this, TROUSERS.  Yes me, leggings obsessed, has been loving Palazzo pants and I think it's time (June payday of course) to turn to the darkside...

£45
The floral print is gorgeous and these trousers would be easy to wear from day to night.  For the day, tuck in a tangerine or magenta coloured tank top, layer it with a denim jacket and finish off with gladiators.  For the evening swap the flats for chunky cork heels, denim jacket for a blazer and add a clutch bag.  


£38
This embellished chiffon top would be great paired with some vintage Levi's at a festival or just for the beach.  I love the scallop trim, which gives the top some more character.  

£55
I adore this dress.  It is extremely girly, with a bit of an edge with the abundance of studs.  The back has detailing too, with a plunging V.  This would look great with a denim waistcoat and wedges.  Pixie teams it with a sunhat, long necklaces and a skinny brown belt.  


Those are a few of my favourites from the new collection, if you'd like to see more then head over to Lipsy.co.uk now!

LFW's Best Dressed Beauts...

With all the hype around London Fashion Week I thought I would contribute to the cause.  With many female celebrities turning up to park their size zero bums on front row, there was more than enough choice for my top 5 best dressed.


My first choice is Cat Deeley, the new face of Links of London, who turned up in a stunning purple Pucci jersey fishtail dress.  With purple being a key colour this season, Deeley is really on form.  


Everybody's favourite socialite and MTV's 'The City' star is next.  Olivia Palmero attended Julien Macdonald's S/S 2011.  She sported former employer, Diane Von Furstenburg's skirt.


Girls Aloud's Nicola Roberts goes from pop chic to rock chick in this TopShop dress at the TopShop Unique show.  The metal gray compliments her pale skin whilst her red hair keeps her from looking washed out.


'These Words' singer Natasha Bedingfield wow's the paparazzi at The Kristian Aadnevik S/S 2011 show.  The royal blue dress shows off her stunning legs and compliements her skin tone nicely, whilst the feathers give off an animalistic side to the garment.



Lastly, no top five would be complete without our favourite Manolo Blahnik babe.  SJP turned up to the Burberry show in a leather camel Burberry jacket.  With military being a big trend this season, she is showing the troops just how it's done.
