Trend Inspo: Celebs at Coachella


Ah, Summer finally feels like it's here and festival season has officially started with the first round of Coachella last weekend and the outfits were even dreamier than ever! We are loving the excess amounts of suede, fringing and crochet this year and it seems like the celebs were too! Check out our favourite looks and get them for your very self:



Kate Bosworth

Kate's festival fashion is always impeccable and she has hit the nail on the head once again with this simple, yet simply perfect look. Go for your favourite staples of a white tunic, aviators and ankle boots but finish off with a statement jacket to give the wow factor.




Atlanta de Cadenet

It was a total White Out at Coachella this year and this casual look from the daughter of Amanda de Cadenet and Duran Duran's John Taylor has been our favourite of all. It's all in those little details with the neck scarf, sunnies and backpack - who knew straight leg white jeans could look soo good?




Gigi Hadid

It's no secret that the whole of the fashion world is on the look out for that perfect suede/fringe combo for 2015's summer nights but model Gigi has done the hard work for us! This cape style is perfect for festivals without being too heavy. Texture clash with crochet and acid wash denim and you can't go wrong.




Rosie Huntington-Whiteley

Is there anything this girl can't do? RHW definitely wins our best dressed gong for the weekend with this incredible dress. Topped off simply with the 'it' Coach bag (as seen on Jordan Dunn too!) and simple accessories, this look has got us well and truly inspired for the upcoming season


Who was your best dressed from the first Coachella? We can't wait to see what comes out of next weekend!

Glitter In The Air - Amy

Day Look - Sequin Dress c/o Motel, Asos Camel Shirt, Topshop Camo Tee, Boohoo Fedora, Silver Service Necklace, Topshop Magnum Boots

Night Look - Sequin Dress c/o Motel, Tosphop Frilly Jumper, New Look White Shirt, Primark Clutch, Daniel Footwear Heels















Say it after me, 'Sequins are for life, not just for Christmas'. The ever-wonderful ladies at Motel set us the task of bringing sequins into our new season wardrobes in our latest style challenge. We decided to go for a day look and a night look to show you just how versatile sequins can actually be, and let's face it, January is so dull and gloomy, we could all do with a little glitz to lift our spirits!

I am getting a little too obsessed with the military trend that's doing the rounds at the moment (check back wednesday and thurs for more!) but I thought this was a nice way to toughen up this sequin dress for the day time. The camo tee underneath turns the low v neck into a more wearble day option and the shirt belted over the top gives a tomboyish feel without losing a feminine figure.

Of course this super sexy dress can do all the talking on a night out, but if, like me, you're a little self conscious and not stupid enough to go out in the British arctic conditions without a few layers, this dress can be worn as a cute skirt with the same glittery impact. This statement jumper (one of those beauts that's been in your Save For Later list that magically goes into sale!) provides all the jazz and warmth you could need but I had to add a collar for comfort needs.

How are you wearing your sequins this spring? Check out Motel's selection here!

Long Coat In Winter (Day) - Amy

Premium Coat c/o Missguided, Stripe Jumper c/o Levi's UK, Topshop Stripe Tunic, Urban Outfitters Beanie, Leather Bag c/o Florian, Suede Boots c/o Pretty Little Thing













This is definitely the coat of the moment - if you haven't spotted this amazing piece on one of your favourite bloggers yet, where have you been! It's hard to believe this premium-esque beauty is only £70 from high street faves Missguided and it's even harder to believe I don't have the camel and black aswell (yet). This longline, structed shape makes this coat so slick and finishes off the scuffiest of outfits smartly.

As we love a good way-to-wear, it made sense to dress this coat up and down for you guys. I opted for grey despite my already vast array of grey coats as I felt it was the easiest to match with everything else in my 'everyday' wardrobe and I was certainly correct, this coat has barely left my shoulders since the day it popped through the door. 

My stripes obsession is showing no signs of slowing down anytime soon. so much so Imixed this red breton tunic with this super cosy knit from Levis. I love the way the same pattern is clashed up a little with colour and texture but finised the look off with a little block of red and black. It's so nice to finish off such a casual outfit with the coat to give it that effortless chic look.

Have you been won over by the Khloe coat? Let's see how you're wearing yours! and check back later this week to see how I've styled this for an #ootn

Rock 'n' Roll - Amy

Look 1: Primark Black Roll Neck Jumper, Zara Stripe Dress, Topshop Black Rip Knee Jamie Jeans, Topman Beanie, RayBan Wayfarer, Rodnik Snoopy Bag c/o Urban Outfitters, Adidas Stan Smiths

Look 2: H&M Studio Black Blazer, Topshop White Fur Trim Skirt (Dress Version), Boohoo Black Clutch, Topshop Magnum Boots













If there is anything that has been a total hero piece in my wardrobe this AW it's the black roll neck. My H&M jersey number has served me well through the transitional stages but this thin knit black jumper is my new best friend. Simple yet versatile, this bad boy really does go with EVERYTHING so we thought we'd show you how we'd wear this dressed up and down.

During the day, it's all about wrapping up in lots of layerrrs. Dresses over jeans are fast becoming my go to at the mo (see here also) and this striped jersey dress is the best way to break up the solid black. Stan smiths and a beanie create a really relaxed and casual vibe for this outfit, perfect for a day of running errands, or that all important Christmas shopping!

Skip a few hours, and you can rely on your favourite piece to turn into the easiet evening outfit too by pairing it with a statement skirt (I went for fur trim, seasonal fave, but anything printed would work) and finished off with a smart jacket and black heeled boots

How would you rock your roll neck?

I have been itching to tell you about this project for weeks and to share the amazing imagery! I was fortunate enough to have been asked by Holly McGlynn to work with her on a project for Levis for their new range of jeans 'Revels' 

'Revels' are part of a revolutionary shaping jean which uses ground breaking liquid shaping technology that shapes, lifts and lengthens your body. Being a girl you will know how difficult it is to find a Jean that's both flattering and doesn't reveal everything when you bend over! Levis who actually invented the first ever pair of jeans have once again helped us find our perfect fit!

After years of sourcing, designing and hundreds of fittings around the world from San Francisco to São Paulo, to Stockholm to Shanghai, Levis is finally proud to introduce their new range....make way for Revels girls! 

Extremely talented photographer Holly McGlynn asked 10 bloggers of different styles and shapes to take part in the campaign and style the new fit jeans in their own way. We each chose our perfect style of Revels and wash and put our stamp on them with our own very individual outfits. 

I styled my Bold curve Revels in 'Sundown' wash of course in a festival/bohemian look and stayed true to myself. I don't usual wear jeans but Revels have converted me, they fit and feel amazing and you can dress them up or down! I styled them with a vintage shirt and blazer I love all the bright colours and clashing prints for an almost folk style. The headband picked out the colours perfectly and brought all the look together. I went big on accessories with statement necklace and chain belt with simple black studded boots! 

We shot the looks in the amazing Epping Forest! Both Holly and myself were caked in mud and freezing cold to bring you these amazing shots which I hope you enjoy! We also experimented with coloured smoke bombs which looked incredible in the forest.... There's always danger on the shoot with Holly! 

On Thursday we celebrated the project launch at the Levis Revel room at Somerset house for London fashion weekend which was a night of champagne and smiles! All of our photos were up on a big board for everyone to see and I was alongside some amazing blogger babes! 

Levis loved the images so much that they are using them for their social, website and in stores worldwide! I feel so lucky to have taken part in such a wonderful project and with such amazing people such as Holly and the girls at Levis! It's definitely one to remember :-)
