Never Fully Dressed

I've been meaning to write this post for just under a year now and I keep getting distracted, partly from work but also because I wanted to keep them a secret to myself. 
This post is about an independent clothing brand who, sell their wears at Portobello  and Spitalfields on their website and more recently on ASOS marketplace they have even had Fearne Cotton wear one of their pieces. 
I'm talking about Never Fully Dressed, of NFD for short. 
I first came across NFD, in 2010 when I saw them at Birmingham Clothes Show and desperately wanted to buy everything and have noticed them growing more and more in the past 2 years to the point where they got mentioned in the telegraph fashion section. 

Most of what they sell is one size only but they are over sized gorgeous drapes of fabric so you can't complain, from gorgeous chiffon frocks ready for festival fabulousness to metallic over sized tee's there is something for everyone in fact I dare you to go on their website and not crave and lust after if not one but several pieces. 
Oh and did I forget to mention...they also sell Jewellery, so get yourself over there or if you would prefer go to  ASOS Marketplace

Versace for H&M

After being teased for weeks from emerging pictures of the collection tomorrow is the release date of the hugely anticipated Versace for H&M cruisewear collection.  
Featuring gorgeous candy colours on hugely wearable designed dresses, sleepwear and even accessories, the collection boasts of it's holiday wear and everyday pieces.
Donatella Versace has told fashion reporter's a lot about her collaboration with the Swedish company,
"This cruise collection is full of pretty, elegant pieces for women and strong new staples for men, all with a fresh feeling for a new year. It has been such a pleasure working with H&M, I am thrilled to be collaborating with them one more time for the online exclusive collection."
Pictured on Abbey Lee Kershaw the model of the moment wears the collection wonderfully and really shows of the detail. 
Being sold online only, girls and boys alike need to get their clicking fingers ready, the last collection sold out within 24 hours. 


I personally have my eye on this wonderful bracelet a bargain at only £24.99 and of course it will go with everything in my wardrobe.

Fashion Want of the Week: Charlotte Olympia

Who wouldn't want Charlotte Olympia's Perspex Pandora clutch. This is the only evening bag you would ever what with a choice between red/orange, purple/pink and blue/green pouches you can match them to your outfit, making every other bag you own completely redundant but who am I kidding you can't own just one bag.
I especially like the spider clasp that gives this clutch a vampy edge.

Buy from net-a-porter for £405

January Detox

Big Ben chimes and before the last firework can pop we are in a drunken stupor vowing to detox, no booze, no cigarette's and no fast food.
Now it's the second weekend in January you still haven't had the last of those Christmas chocolate's or that last bit of wine waiting for you under the kitchen cabinet so how about instead we don't have a miserable Januray and detox our wardrobes instead to inject Spring into our lives and with it bring the light at the end of these cold, wet months.





Trends Featured:
Metallic/Futuristic
Print
Underwater
 Neon
Sheer
 Dipped Hemline's

These are just some trends to look forward to the next coming months, personally I'm loving the neon vibe going on at the moment and in complete juxtaposing fashion I'm also loving pastel colour's, I'm even wearing it on my nails.

Front Row Seats

I've been so naughty with this blog and have completely neglected it for quite some time now, but I'm getting excited again for fashion and everything that comes with it but what brought this on you say?
Well I got excited when I found out a certain designer was releasing a certain collection for affordable prices and so I have a name for you, a name that will resonate with lovers of fashion everywhere and that name is
KARL LAGERFELD!

Oh yes having recently found out that he's launching an affordable 70 piece collection called Karl by Karl Lagerfeld, where prices actually start from £50! I got excited is this news of more things to come will more designers be designing not only for couture runway shows but for people like us who want to own a piece of affordable luxury. And this is one bit of luxury fashion that we can all be a part of.

Who doesn't want to own a piece of Karl and knowing his designs for Chanel and Fendi you know it will be wearable and classic.

To be apart of this go to http://www.karllagerfeld.com/ and sign up to be a part of the exclusive pre-launch on net-a-porter. Then while you're at it pop on over to net-a-porter and download the app.

The collection launches 25th January and we all have front row seats for the newest thing in fashion this year.

I have completely neglected this blog and while I have no excuse for a while I just felt like I could not be bothered and had lost the will to keep up.
After receiving an unconditional and conditional offer to 2 fashion universities I decided that I didn't want to go as I enjoy fashion yet didn't want to be tied down to it.
But from now on my love and passion will be depicted through this blog.
But not only my love for fashion but regular bits about beauty and perfume.
So for those who have continued to follow me without many updates thanks.
And for future followers, welcome this blog will be updated weekly for a fast fix on fashion.
