Vintage Dresses – Get 20% off New Season Styles With Rise Fashion
As the new AW11 collections hit shelves across the high street and online dress stores, one of the bigger trends that seems to be emerging is that of vintage style, ahhh… but those of you who class yourselves as fashionistas, or even no so dedicated followers of fashion, are probably thinking to yourself that you’ve been wearing vintages dresses for ages?
The Truth About Vintage Dresses And The Fashion Industry
The truth of the matter is the everything comes around in circles, “what goes around comes around” and that’s never more truth than in the fashion industry, where any new season trends will inevitability be drawn upon inspiration from past eras, just like 80% of all songs are made up of the same 5 chords, fashion is and always will be an fusion of past influences with a modern twist, and on the weekend when one of the UK’s biggest vintage fashion fairs is held http://www.vintagefashionfairlondon.co.uk/ (pop over if you’re in the Promose Hill Ara on 11th Sept), it in some ways serves to illustrates the inevitability of things that have been before will indeed come around again… as such vintage dresses, fashion and trends have been mainstream for a little while now, though personally, I don’t mind that… as long as they don’t resurrect the Ra Ra skirt or shell suits.
Despite the industry looking back to the future, it’s never the price that revert back to the 1950′s is it? What we can say though that if you can identify carefully chosen pieces at the right time of the year, namely in sale season and get some great vintage dresses or any other style dress for that matter, that will see you alright for a number of seasons to come, but wear a smug little grin in the knowledge that you’ve got a bargain to boot… that’s got to be a great excuse to buy?

Have A Conscious This Christmas With Stylish Ethical Dresses
October 23, 2010 by Ceri ·
Christmas is all about giving as much as anything else right? Well This Christmas you can have a conscious and look incredibly stylish with some amazing ethical dresses which are perfect to party in. This Christmas you can give the disadvantaged a fair price for their goods they produce which are the raw materials that are used to make ethical women’s fashion brand items from Fashion Conscience.
Gone are the days when ethical fashion meant boring, frumpy and hippy like. Today ethical fashion is glamorous, elegant and chic, what ever you want it to be. Ethical fashion is the perfect guilt free shopping, by buying your new dress you are helping in a small way to making the world a better place. This winter you can take your pick of ethical dresses which are better for the environment, the people involved in their manufacture and your conscious at Fashion Conscience.
Fashion Conscience is an online ethical retailer which stocks ethical dresses and clothes by a variety of ethical designers including People Tree, Reluxe and Ruby Rocks. It is packed full of fashion forward clothes that are also incredibly stylish and wearable and ethical in at least one of the following ways:
Organic cotton - grown without the use of pesticides (or any chemicals), organic cotton is much less damaging to the environment than conventional cotton and also better for the farmers who get trapped in a cycle of applying more and more expensive chemicals to the cotton to ensure a good crop as the pests become more resistant.
Fairtrade cotton- Fairtrade guarantees a better deal for third world producers. It helps farmers to improve the quality of their life and take control of their futures.
Recycled materials – buying women’s dresses made from recycled materials is one of the most sustainable ways to shop. Not only do you get a choice of the innovative designs that are a result of recycling but you also help to reduce waste and cut down on your carbon footprint.
Ethical manufacture- In the past there have been many documented cases of clothing factories with poor working conditions. Ethical fashion labels ensure that workers manufacturing their clothes are treated ethically and paid a fair wage.

The Rise Of The Day Dress
October 10, 2010 by Ceri ·
The Day Dress
The day dress is a term that seems to have become common place in the world of fashion. Perhaps it is to help those of us who get a little bit confused about which women’s dresses to wear and when to wear them? It is really simple though a Cocktail dress is for the evening or parties, a day dress is for the ‘day’ time.
The rise of the day dress is in part perhaps we would like to think, a rebellion by women against the wearing of jeans as a uniform for casual occasions. Whilst most of us will still own a much loved pair of jeans, there are times when a dress makes you feel just that little bit special and as if you’ve made a bit of an effort.
Dresses are not only feminine and a great way to make a style statement with your everyday clothes or work wear. They are also an easy option when it comes to getting dressed in the morning. There is no need to spend ages trying to make up your mind which top goes with which trousers, a dress is a ready made outfit.
Day Dresses makes it easy maintenance and fashionable too
It would be difficult to talk about day dresses and the trend for ladies to look more… well ‘ladylike’ without mentioning the hit TV programme Mad Men. The mid length style dresses which are for perfect high maintenance women who care about what they look like and are prepared to make the time and take the effort to look absolutely stunning every single day.
A day dress should be comfy enough and practical to wear all day but also be beautifully feminine and a great way to add a little glamour to every day life. If you are worried about the practicalities of wearing a dress in the autumn and winter, the day dress can be teamed with opaque tights and boots for a cosy and on-trend look. Soft draping jersey is comfortable and warm making it an ideal choice for a day dress. This winter there are some great options including floral dresses, wrap dresses, jumper dresses and sixties style mini dresses. Combine your day dress with wedge heels or some elegant flat pumps for maximum comfort.
Fair Isle Knits are every where this autumn and winter. This cosy Fairisle dress by Oasis is great for wearing with some woolly cable knit tights, boots and a big scarf for a really cold winters day. You could also add sheer tights and heels for a smarter look.
This feather print skater dress by Rare Fashion is pretty and girly but can easily be dressed down with a pair of boots and an aviator jacket. If the skirt is too short for you, it can also be worn with a pair of leggings.
This Savannah Swirl Neck line Brush Knit Flower Dress is the perfect combination of cosy and eye catching. For a really on trend look try wearing with a pair of over the knee socks.
This Charmaine Bobbi Large Bow Dress is the ideal choice for slightly smarter daytime occasions. It features an ethnic contrasting print with a large bow at the front for the Autumn winter when matched with a thick pair of black tights and cosy boots.
Floral Winter Dresses At Warehouse
October 2, 2010 by Ceri ·
Sometimes winter dresses can seem really dark and perhaps just a little bit dull. Dark colours are practical for the colder months but don’t do much to cheer you up and lift your spirits on an icy cold morning. There is an alternative however, that can make you feel brighter and happier. There are plenty of floral winter dresses at Warehouse which are great for adding a bit of subtle and stylish pattern to your winter wardrobe.
The great think about floral dresses is that they can be adapted for both daytime and evening. A pair of opaque black tights and boots will transform you floral dress into a boho/ folk inspired day dress inspired by the Ralph Lauren Autumn Winter collection which featured floral patterned chiffon dresses and tops. But add some amazing heels, sheer tights and a black jacket and you also have an amazing party dress.
Floral prints really are timeless and the collection at Warehouse feature inspiration from different decades including the fifties with mid length flared skirts, the sixties with mini dresses and the seventies with maxi dresses.
The Floral Long Sleeved Maxi Dress

Made from 100% silk it is both feminine and luxurious, the v neck makes it incredibly flattering. Wear with wedge shoes for a little extra height and if you really want to get that seventies boho vibe throw on a faux fur gilet.
The Floral Fifties Style Dress
This V front V back floral fifties style dress features an eye catching print. It is the perfect lady like style for the autumn and winter and would look great with some classic court shoes a neat cardigan and an over the arm handbag. If you like you could even add a string off pearls.
The Abstract Floral Dress
If you are looking for a slightly more modern take on the winter floral dress, this scatter floral dress is a great abstract alternative to the more traditional floral prints. It is also a more modern sheath style dress which is perfect for dressing up with a few brightly coloured accessories perhaps a bag or some shoes. It would also look great with a leather biker jacket for that rock chic vibe.
The Light Coloured Floral Print Dress
If you thought that light coloured floral prints didn’t really work for the winter then this mixed paisley tunic dresswill prove you wrong. With a slightly off white back ground to the print it will go with different coloured tights from black and grey to red, blue or green for a fun winter look or even long sock or bare legs if you can stand the cold.

London Fashion Week – House Of Holland
September 27, 2010 by Ceri ·
House of Holland has become a firm favourite amongst Brits for its fun but wearable women’s dresses, clothes and accessories. They are young and fresh with a hint of that quirky British style. Henry Holland manages to portray his fun personality through his label which has earned itself a reputation for having a bit of a laugh with fashion. Henry Holland is best mates with Agyness Deyne so you know that he will never be short of celebrity mates to turn up to his shows at London Fashion Week. This year there was Agyness (of course) along with Amber Rose, Lily Allen, Nicola Roberts, Pixie Geldolf and even Kerry Katona.
The clothes shown on the catwalk at the House of Holland show were both fun and frivolous but also incredibly wearable. There were shirts and women’s dresses were adorned with tassels and leather stars, there were also leather pleated skirts, evening dresses, body con dresses and pom pom earrings and accessories. The collection also contained mini metallic leather biker jackets. The look most definitely had a touch of the seventies about it with purples, greens and pinks giving it a colourful feel. It was old school glamour, disco and a touch of New York all rolled into one.
Some of the most noticeable pieces of the collection were the pink and lilac pleated dresses, the sparkly star t shirts and patterned shirts, asymmetric body con dresses worn with knee socks and the green leaf print all in one.
Of course for most of us spring summer 2011, seems like a long way away. Henry Holland’s summer collection would not be warm enough for the the cold autumnal weather that we are about to experience. But don’t worry if you are a big fan of the designer, you can get your fix by checking out the H! by Henry Holland collection at Debenhams. The autumn winter collection contains plenty of warm but fun and stylish clothes including a grey sweatshirt with floral applique writing, an iconic camel coat and some slogan t shirts.
The collection combines amazing value for money with fresh. fun, fashion. There are also plenty of floral, checks and tartans all patterns that are starting to become a real part of the Henry Holland signature.
This multi coloured lip print dress by Henry Holland is striking, colourful and quirky. It is also an incredibly soft piece of knitwear making it extra comfortable. For a super casual look try combining it with a pair of work boots. If you want to keep your legs a little warmer just add some woolley socks.
This khaki draped sleeve maxi dress is a great combination of simplicity and on trend style. The glamour of the maxi dress style combined with the more casual khaki colour make it ideal for both the daytime and evening.
Another fun look is this black dice jumper dress. It is stretchy and comfortable and clings in all of the right places. It has a flattering v neck and elasticised cuffs and hems to help it keep its beautiful shape.
This lilac floral dress is pretty but also very sophisticated with its corset style bodice. Try wearing it with a biker jacket for a rock chic look.
