Boo! ... Halloween Inspiration!

Hot Child in the City

Well Thursday certainly was a hot night in the city.  The legendary Browns bar and brasserie had their grand opening in Liverpool One (whilst simultaneously celebrating 40 years in their London bar)and the liverpool fashionistas certainly were out in force.   

Hollyoaks actress Jorgie Porter and Jennifer Metcalfe looked stunning.  Jorgie wore a black cut out stretch maxi dress, only £50 from Lavish Alice.  Jennifer wore black tailored dungarees with a black bandeau underneath, similar to which can be found by River Island on ASOS for £35.00.  Both achieved a fabulous look using high street stores.

Also out on Thursday Night was the city's resident guru of fashion  (she can do no wrong by DiscoFashionArt at the moment)Abbey Clancy.  Abbey looked amazing as per usual, even when casual this girl nails it, in ripped jeans, a pale blue blouse and on trend delicate high sandals, Abbey certainly was a hot child in the city!

  

Abbey is the new face of designer Hasan Hejazi's new A/W 2013 collection, and frankly its fantastic.  The pictures are amazing, (see below) and prove once again that Abbey is a fashion force to be reckoned with. Specialising in glamorous evening wear, Hasan Hejazi has been featured in publications such as Vogue International, Nylon, Dazed and Confused and Hunger and shot by noted photographers such as Rankin.  His designs mix Luxe Sportswear with vibrant silks, attention to detail and commitment to quality.  His designs  have been worn by Jesse J, Kylie Minogue, Paloma Faith and Marina and the Diamonds.  

Saturday night seen the Radio City Live Event in the Echo Arena. A host of new and seasoned music talent arrived to entertain the masses including Jesse J, Professor Green, Stooshe, Neon Jungle and many more.  Jesse's outfit left very little to the imagination, don't get us wrong the girl has got a smoking hot body and why wouldn't you want to show that off but the white netting was reminiscent of the string that goes around a sunday roast joint! However her new season Giuseppe Zanotti trainers were major.  Also looking amazing were new girl band Neon Jungle, they were a refreshing addition to the red carpet, DiscoFashionArt think their style is definitely going to be one to watch.  Last but not least Professor green was rocking his usual attire of jeans and designer t! This one was Givenchy pre fall 2012, I bet you he has a fine selection to choose from!

Ascot... Dress Code My A***!

Well its that time of year again and Ascot is well under way.  This year however the powers that be have instructed all those in attendance to adhere to a 'dress code'  to avoid any chavtastic outfits from ruining the queens diamond jubilee celebrations and photographs (ma'am can't abide cleveage or mini's apparantly).  After reading the rules and regulations for attire on Ascots official website I thought that when the first pictures of race goers appeared on Tuesday afternoon I would see plenty of well dressed ladies in knee length hems, fabulous hats (ma'am can't abide fasinators either.... all hats in the royal stand need to have a base of at least 4 inches) and demure necklines.  How wrong was I! Never let it be said that the girls of Aintree (SOME!) are the worst dressed racegoers in the country.... our sisters down south have definitly gave the most undesirable of Aintree attendees a run for their money!  It must be said there were some lovely ladies wearing some Fabulous ensembles but there were also some absolute shockers, including a pack of lap dancers advertising their local 'gentlemans club' called Tantric Blue! Take heed The Daily Mail..... us Northerners are definitly not the chaviest of them all!

So what would a stylish scouser wear to Royal Ascot?? Here are three looks that not only adhere to the dress code, but also tick the boxes of some of Spring and Summers 2012's hottest looks. 

Look 1: Jonathan Saunders dress from Net a Porter.Com, Miu Miu courts and Miu Miu clutch from MyTheresa.Com, French Connection Bracelet from Asos and Wide Brimmed Hat with scattered blossom from Piers Atkinson's Racegoers Collection (see website for stockists)

 Look 2: Micheal Van Der Ham dress from Net a Porter.Com, Fendi Shoes from MyTheresa.Com, Africa Print clutch from Topshop, Tortoise Shell Watch - Micheal Kors from Asos and Into the Jungle Hat from Piers Atkinson's Archive (see website for stockists)

Look 3: Jonathan Saunders dress from Net a Porter.Com, Alexander Wang Clutch and Jimmy Choo kitten courts from MyTheresa.Com, Ring and Bracelett from Topshop and

November #justwhatImthinking

I'm having those booties... end of! I'm thinking the office Christmas shindig... I've got some ideas about what to put them with but I'll keep them to myself for the minute (think gun metal, sequins, Hollywood glamour)  A little snippet from Toronto fashion week.. The Chloecommeparris collection was a little bit of me for spring and summer next year.  Hats and Jumpers from Topshop because its freezing!  Kanye x Hov or KanJay as I've nic named it. I think it looks like a African American homer from the Simpson's #justsaying (can't stop listening to Otis from Watch the Throne on the bus).  A little pic from the Satorialist ... loving the Peruvian belt.. my other half's aunty is in Peru at the mo and so I'm hoping she gets me a belt like this! Imagine!... I just wish it was warm enough to wear that outfit.  Some Sequin Graffiti in Reykjavik, Iceland by Theresa Himmer... Amazing.  Finally some of the latest designs from Wah Nails... I need to get down to London and get these nails of mine DID!

A week in pics

Waiting for "Watch the Throne" to be released... my small obsession with everything that is Jay Z and Kanye and Ricardo Tisci.  Some bits I wouldn't mind picking up from ASOS and Topshop (them purple court shoes will be purchased soon) Prarda Stripes and Fur, Anjelica Blick my newest blog crush, Ernesto Muniz's exhibition in Nic Corkes Gallery in Aigburth - worth a visit, my Mcqueen vest purchased in Glasto and hasn't been off my back, some of my bracelet choices and finally the cupcakes that got me through a long week in the office.
