Beautiful Boutique | Sugarbird, Yorkshire

2010-08-20T08:48:00.002+01:00

Emma and Lucy Curtis are sisters  from East Yorkshire who recently followed their dreams to set up their beautiful lifestyle boutique, Sugarbird, in Beverley.

As mums to 3 young children each, both Lucy and Emma knew firsthand just how difficult it could be to grab some time for yourself. So they put their heads together and imagined a shop where it would be possible to buy a dress for that christening you are going to next week, a present for your friend’s birthday and a little something for the host of the dinner party you are going to at the weekend. The result is that Sugarbird has it all - from the best boutique collections to beautiful prints by Missemai and cosmetics from Paul & Joe! And to top it off, men shopping with their families can enjoy a coffee and paper, whilst the children lounge on a big bean bag to watch a movie! These girls really have thought of everything!

How to Wear | Flared Jeans

2010-08-19T09:10:00.001+01:00

Victoria Beckham does flared jeans better than any other celebrity. Tempting though it may be to wear your flared jeans with a flat shoe, they work best with a heel to add height to the silhouette. Balance the look by teaming a short top or T shirt, add a fabulous pair of shades and you're done!

L-R: MiH Oslo Skinny Jeans £150; Nudie Tight Long John Jeans £115; Paige Premium Denim Skyline Jeans £165

We really need to thank Kate Moss for trailblazing skinny jeans into fashion. They may look impossible to wear, but try some on and you could be surprised - skinny jeans have a lot of stretch in them and are surprisingly comfortable once you get them on (try Citizens of Humanity Slick Skinnies for starters) You don't have to expose every bump either, just wear them with a longer top or tunic and add heels to elongate your legs.

How to Wear | Boyfriend Jeans

2010-08-17T07:54:00.000+01:00

L-R: MiH London Boy Jeans £190; Paige Premium Denim Jimmy Boyfriend Jeans £199; Current/Elliott Boyfriend Jeans £190

Katie Holmes (aka Mrs Tom Cruise) was one of the first celebs to embrace boyfriend jeans in 2008. At the time, style pundits loudly asked what she was thinking, but since then, they've rightfully had a change of heart and this uber-comfortable trend is here to stay for a little longer at least. Once Current/Elliott's version hit the market there was no stopping the rest of the celeb pack and everyone from Sarah Jessica Parker to Rachel Bilson has been seen in their distressed denim version. To avoid looking out of your depth, tuck your T in to show off the waist band and add a simple wide belt.

Fashion Insider | Mishca Jewellery

2010-08-09T17:06:00.000+01:00

The creator of Mishca's hand crafted, hand finished jewellery designs introduces us to her beauty must-haves and fashion tips ...

How would you describe your personal style?
Elegant and eclectic.

What do you wear for work?
I like to wear simple and comfortable clothes for work but I always make sure they come to life through one amazing piece of jewellery. At the moment my weakness is my Mishca Gold Pearl necklace which will be launched with the luxury Nite Collection in September or Mishca Semi-precious Drop earrings.

Who is your style icon?
Grace Kelly for her pure elegance and simplicity.

What is the one item in your wardrobe you couldn’t live without?
My Fuego Woman glittery long beige cardigan – it’s so stylish and comfortable and goes with most things.

What’s your top fashion tip?
Never blend in - always make an outfit your own and don't be afraid to stand out. A unique piece of jewellery always does the trick.

Who is your favourite designer?
Alexander McQueen - his creativity was breathtaking.

What’s the worst fashion mistake you’ve ever made?
I don't believe in fashion mistakes- it's good to experiment and play with fashion.

What beauty products are currently in your bathroom cabinet?
Giorgio Armani black mascara, Lancome waterproof black eyeliner and eye shadow, and Chanel nail polish.

How would you describe the style of your home? Modern and Minimalistic but with a warm and cozy feel – I like to keep things simple at home.

Where's your favourite holiday destination?
Hmm...that’s a difficult one! I love travelling and have been to so many gorgeous places, each of which has something distinguishing with amazing charm. I think it would have to be Argentina, which has such an immense beauty with the fashion, style and elegance of Buenos Aires, the beauty of Patagonia and the Iguazú falls. I love their lifestyle.

What's been your favourite film this year?
I saw all of the Harry Potter films again earlier this year and am waiting eagerly for the new one to come out so I’m holding out for that as a favourite!

Mishca's Nite Collection will be launched at the International Jewellery London in September 2010 and is available from www.mishca.co.uk

Super Sale | Stanwells Rerun

2010-08-06T08:00:00.000+01:00

Another great little fashion secret that we've just discovered is Stanwells Re-run, where we've found hundreds of fashion treasures at a fraction of the original price! Re-run was born after Julia Aitken, the owner of Stanwells boutique in Lymington, realised that many of her existing boutique clients were able to offer their clothes for re-sale. An added bonus to this online store is that she sells the discounted shop stock from her boutique at a vastly reduced price.

Designers include Temperley, Milly & Juicy Couture plus accessories from Louis Vuitton, Gucci and more. There's even Menswear from Hugo Boss, Armani, Duchamp & Etro, so you can feel a little less guilty and buy something for him while you're at it!

Stanwells Re-run's summer sale ends tomorrow (Saturday) so it's the best possible chance to grab a fabulous designer bargain! We love this pretty Catherine Malandrino dress, fabulous espadrilles and on trend Joseph leopard print dress, all hugely reduced!

Behind the Scenes | Odd Molly AW10

2010-08-04T09:14:00.001+01:00

Odd Molly has teamed up with Helena Christensen again for their AW2010 campaign, this time with Helena as the photographer. The shoot took place at the Chelsea Hotel in New York with British model, Daisy Lowe as the new face of the brand.  

Q&A with Odd Molly's creative director Per Holknekt
Tell us about your choice of Daisy Lowe? Is she a Molly?
“Daisy is a super Molly! Her clean conscience lifestyle and her living mind pair up with her personal beauty to portray a role model for both the young and the less young. Daisy Lowe is friendly, fun spirited and a thinker, just like the typical cool Molly customer.”

Did Daisy get to keep any of the clothes from the shoot?
“[Daisy] loved some of the pieces and wanted to keep them, still she'll have to wait patiently, like everybody, until fall when she will receive her picked superdarlings.”

Q&A with Helena Christensen
What was the most challenging part in the transition from a model to a photographer?
I was a photographer before I started modelling. So the transition was really the other way around. I am fascinated by photography, the effect images have on me. Working on both sides of the camera has been some sort of educational experience for me.

What kind of advantages do you think being a model yourself is giving you as a photographer?
I am a rather quick photographer. It's about not losing the vibe, the moment. As the subject I feel I can keep that going in an interesting, intimate way for a little while, and then it becomes somehow forced.

2010-08-02T10:03:00.000+01:00

Rachel's designs are simple and elegant with a luxurious twist to each piece. Worn by Taylor Swift, Delta Goodram and the Hilton sisters, they seem to get more and more stunning with each new season. Most of the dressses from this Autumn's collection would be absolutely perfect as a wedding dress, so whether you dream of a traditional long dress or a shorter hem, take a look and be inspired x
