Holiday Season

It's the time of year when those who have kids (or have friends with children) experience the holiday season. Schools close and children need to be entertained; this is absolutely no reason to slouch in what we are wearing. Yes, I would agree comfort is beyond important, and we'll probably have a mutual understanding that short stuff or wonderful whites are a definite no-go.

For the sporty-chic girls, try the Edun Indigo Dye Silk Drawstring Pant


Elegant trousers with a playful twist, try Asos Crepe Trousers with Elastic Cuff


Dare stand out with these Ombre Trousers


Not your usual Converse (Marimekko)

Wear your heart on your sleeves with this grey (or black) Asos Jumper

Don't just bake cakes during the holidays, carry them around in this Rucksack too!


At the end of a day of play, put your feet up and keep them warm with Paul Smith socks..

Happy Holidays

Deepa Gurnani

With Central Saint Martins being one of the colleges of which The University of the Arts (the uni where I go to) comprises, I always feel a particularly excited to read about alumni who have 'made it' in the big wide world.

Launched in 2006 by master-beader Deepak Gurnani and her jewelry designer husband Jay Lakhani, the brand has gracefully put headbands back in the scene. Fusing exotic cultural influences, with retro-chic, the handmade pieces add that bohemian spice to your outfit. Who doesn't want a little embellishment from beads and crystals on vintage fabric pieces to decorate their hair?

Queen Bee

With the Diamond Jubilee Weekend (The Queen has been reigning for 6o years now!) coming up here in England this weekend (Saturday until Tuesday), everyone is in a celebratory mood. And of course, why wouldn't we celebrate in a fashionable way??!?!


E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G has turned patriotic here in Britain, with biscuit packets striped in the Union Jack, as well as M&M's, cakes, streets, houses, mugs and of course: clothing. 


Asos is in fact giving us what we love when it comes to fashion for a celebration: deals and discounts.
"Celebrate the Jubilee with your edit of the best of British brands, plus free DIY crowns, designed for you 
by House of Holland, Preen, Danielle Scutt and Julie Verhoeven. You're welcome!"











Oh hail, oh hail: Queen Bee is coming through! Have a fabulous weekend all of you!
