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.
Versatile Crossover Tunic Dress For Summer & Autumn
September 12, 2010 by Ashleigh ·
Do you feel like your wearing jeans all the time? Well if you want a new look this autumn and fancy a change from the hum drum look then your wardrobe would not be complete without a tunic dress. Completely different to any thing else, these stylish dresses have a dress code all of there own.
If you are looking for something to brighten up your autumn then the Yumi Sheela Fantasy Butterfly Dress by Yumi is the perfect way to do it.
The Yumi Sheela Fantasy Butterfly Dress is decorated with simple but eye catching and colourful floral/birds originated design. The black background to the fabric keeps the dress vibrant as a contrast to the blues and pinks in the design but gives it just the right amount of balance.
This fun tunic style dress is an ideal partner to wear with a woolen cardigan for the autumn, perhaps black to blend with the dresses base colour, or if you want to be adventurous blue or pink to contrast. This new autumn look would not be complete without a pair of thick black tights.
However whilst it has no sleeves the Yumi Sheela Fantasy Butterfly Dress is ideal for the summer months too, so a perfect investment piece to cover both Autumn 2010 and Summer 2011.
There’s also no need to be self conscience in this dress as it’s great for any body shape, its long loosely hung tunic shaped bottom and therefore hides a multitude of sins and very accommodating no matter what shape you are.
It comes in convenient sizes S/M and M/L and comes in two fab colours to brighten up your autumn. The bold Blue print is great for anyone wanting to make a statement or just showing off there bubbly personality. But if you just want to tone it down then the pink Sheela Fantasy Butterfly Dress is for you with its natural and calming tones.

Striking Women’s Dresses For The World Cup
June 11, 2010 by Ceri ·
This Friday the FIFA World Cup will officially kick off in South Africa. Even if you are not usually a big fan of football, it is difficult to not get wrapped up in the excitement about one of worlds biggest sporting events. Whilst in the past, most people have supported the England team by wearing the England Football strip or painting their faces with a George Cross, this year women’s dresses in red and white offer a stylish but equally patriotic option. Whilst football shirts are great for men who want to support England, they are a little unflattering and casual for ladies who like to get dressed up for the event.
Perhaps it is the WAGs (well some of them) in their designer dresses that have brought a little glamour to the game and made those ladies which opt for the predictable football shirt feel a little under dressed. If ever anyone needed a great excuse to get dressed up, then supporting England in the world cup is definitely it. Instead of just sitting at home watching the game on the box, many people now choose to congregate in public places to watch it on a big screen or go to parties or barbecues.
This year there has been quite a bit of talk about fashion with the FIFA world cup licensing its imagery, including mascots and logos, to be transformed into a clothing brand, courtesy of Singapore-based Global Brands Group. But with so many different options and women’s dresses available, you don’t have to look too far to find some great World Cup fashion with bright and bold to subtle and stylish, there is something to suit everyone. High Street retailers all have their own ranges of England world cup clothes.
Whilst the most popular choice of colours for supporting the England team are red and white, that doesn’t mean that you will have to invest in a red and white dress that you might never wear again. A bright red dress is a really stunning choice and can easily be accessorised with some white accessories for a patriotic football outfit. Similarly white women’s dresses accessorised with red will create the same effect as the England flag. A little navy into the mix won’t do any harm either.
This simple white linen dress by Marks and Spencers combined with these red shoes by Dorothy Perkins makes a stylish and minimalist look for any World Cup parties that you attend this summer.
This bold and bright red striped dress by Dorothy Perkins is a really ‘striking’ way to cheer on the England team.
There are plenty of other ways that you can add a little support for England to your world Cup outfit. These fun accessories are perfect for both match day parties and every day wear.
This square faced England watch would look great with a casual dress or shirt dress and some England flip flops. A England sequin clutch is also a great way to support England in style.
Let’s hear it for the boys! Another alternative is the ENGLAND LION TEE (£10). Perfect to team with jeans or a pair of white jersey shorts, cheer on England in this round neck tee available in red or white. or The ENGLAND FLAG TEE (£14) has a large motif print to the front and a slash open back with adjustable tie. Available in red or white.
