Party time!

It was my birthday yesterday, so I had a party, and told all my friends to come all 'dolled up' because, let's face it, how often do you get to wear that posh dress you were saving for someone's wedding in front of your girlfriends? Do I hear a faint "never" ? All of the girls looked gorgeous and here are some of my favourite fashion picks from the night... enjoy!

Feeling green with envy

Whilst watching atonement with my dad last Saturday, I immediately fell into love with Keira Knightley's emerald maxi. She looked amazing in it, and I wanted to find some more affordable and available alternatives.

Here's what I came up with:

             

Keira Knightley looking stunning... as usual!

 Issa at Net-a-Porter for £680

Rochas at Barneys $2,690 (only really the sam cut as Keira's)

 Here's Naomi's prom dress from 90210, which is fairly similar!

Sorry, I didn't find much, but there isn't a lot out there. Post if you find anything better

Jackie inspiration

Having just watched Gok Wan try and persuade a 50 year old from Birmingham to stop wearing clothes which place her in an 80s high school, I figured that I should allow you to indulge in an inspiration of mine for fashion ( though she's less Madonna, Cyndi and Rick.)

She seemed to have a quality similar to the elegance of Audrey Hepburn and her wardrobe choices also reflect this:

So where can you find this 50s chic style?  As a fan of this style, I've searched recklessly on the internet for some clothes which reflect Audrey and Jackie's style and came up with a few must haves:

List of stores respectively: Zara dress £39.99; Asos Dress £170.00; Toshop Bow waist skirt £25.00; One piece Miu-Miu at Net-a-porter £125.00; Linen dress £39.99 Zara; Orange Cowl Peplum dress Dorothy Perkins £38.00; Dress H&M £29.99; pale blue dress Asos £35.00; White trousers Mango 49 euros; Shoes Zara £59.99; Marc Jacobs bag at Net-a-porter £1,230.00; Gucci at Net-a porter £620.00; Victoria Beckham at Net-a-porter ' Jackie O' sunglasses £325.00; Yves Saint Laurent at Net-a-porter £1,410.
