Kardashian Kollection

I have just seen on Facebook that the Kardashian's are going to be working with Dorothy Perkins to retail their range 'Kardashian Kollection'! Which is quite exciting!

The Collection will be available to buy in store online at dorothyperkins.com, the launch date is around November 2012 for clothing and then footwear is said to follow in 2013.

This is great news for Dorothy Perkins who also sell 'Mischa Barton' handbags (my favourite been this Black Stripe Canvas Shopper bag for £49), it will definitely give them a boost on the high street! I cant wait to see the collection, just in time for Christmas too, coincidence?

Olympic Fashion!

Well the Olympics came to a close last night and the Fashion was one of the highlights of the night! There was a great feature where British fashion was celebrated, when a number of Fashion models came to stage wearing all Gold!!

Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell both wore Alexander McQueen gowns, Karen Elson was in Burberry, Stella Tennant in Christopher Kane, also in the Fashion parade was Lily Cole, Georgia May Jagger, Lily Donaldson and Jourdan Dunn.

Then there was the Spice Girl! The moment everyone was waiting for last night, and they were just incredible!! All looked amazingly fashionable, especially Victoria Beckham (of course) wearing a Giles Deacon creation.

It hasn't just been the closing ceremony that has showcased some great outfits, the Team GB uniforms were designed by Stella McCartney which was brilliant, Giorgi Armani also designed the kit for Italy, so this years Olympics were very fashionable!



Not only are the competitors looking good in their sport but they are also turning up the style stakes off tr field too, one athlete I'm sure you have heard of, our Golden girl heptathlon competitor Jessica Ennis was spotted in a gorgeous Coral Alexander McQueen dress a few nights ago from the SS12 collection for £449. Jessica Teams this lovely dress with a simple black belt. She is our Golden girl on and off the field!

Then the Duchess of Cambridge was also sporting a number of gorgeous dresses, during the opening ceremony she wore a lovely Christopher Kane dress
- closing ceremony she wore a Whistles 'Bella' dress which she also wore to the jubilee concert, i love this blue print dress, i have found a similar one on the Whistles website - Bella Camo Leopard Print dress for £150 which isn't a bad price! I do love how she recycles her clothes makes her seem like a normal person, and she always looks good!

I really enjoyed the Olympics i was hooked, i never thought i would be, but now i cant wait for the Paralympics and then Rio in 2016!!!

Cheryl Cole - Under the sun

Cheryl has been spotted shooting her new musi video for 'Under the sun' there seems to be a 60's retro feel to the video and Cheryl has been wearing a gorgeous coral coloured pencil skirt, teamed with a yellow bra and white cropped knotted top, very sexy I must say!

I have found this Coral Coloured Textured Pencil skirt from BooHoo for only £18.00 which is a great price, or there is this Vintage Coral Pencil skirt from ASOS market place for £25.00. This Lipsy Neoprene Pencil skirt is gorgeous, i love the black waistband, this again is only £25.00

I have found the gorgeous earrings that Cheryl wears in the video, they are by Andy Farrow and are available at Etsy - Gold Dome Earrings for £110.00, those are a bit pricey so how about these Light Pink dangle encrusted Ball earrings from River Island for only £8.00

As for those sexy animal print heels, there are many places you can buy similar ones from such as these gorge Christian Louboutin heels, they do cost £495, so i have found a couple of alternatives. Firstly there is this pair from Dorothy Perkins - Leopard Open waist courts for £28.00, or from Office these Dorothys Friends Leopard Print heels costing £62.00 which are bit more expensive than the pair from Dorothy Perkins, both pairs are very cute but personally i would go for the Dorothy Perkins pair as they are more cost effective and shoes from Dorothy Perkins are usually good quality.

I have also heard that Cheryl will be making a guest appearance on Rhianna's new show 'Styled to Rock' which i cant wait for!!

Kelly Brook - Magnum London Event

Did you all see the pictures of Kelly Brook at the Magnum event in London, wasn't her dress gorgeous? The colour was lush! I really want that dress! I have found this Alexander McQueen dress which is similar to the one she wore and maybe the same dress only different colours, it is a bit pricey at £1,395 so a little out of my price range!! Kelly teamed her dress with a red belt which helped to show off her amazing hour glass figure. I am also loving her new dark locks!

Marylon Tailored Pleat Dress

I have found this Tracie 3/4 sleeve Ribbed Skater dress from BooHoo for only £20!! So it is a bargain, it is available in Berry, Black or Mocha. All you need is a waist belt to recreate Kelly Brook's look. This Embellished Jewel Front Belt would be a nice addition from Warehouse for £25.00

How about this Rosewood Basic Jersey Skater dress from New Look for only £11.99.

There is this Marylon Tailored Pleat dress from Miss Guided, currently £13.79 in the sale, Miss Guided has a nice collection of Skater dresses so it is definitely a website i would recommend if you are looking for this style of skirt.

Charlotte Olympia shoes

I am loving Charlotte Olympia heels at the moment, their signature island platform is great.

Net-a-Porta have got a great selection at the moment, my favourite of which are these Polly Calf hair & leather pumps which cost £740 and have a brilliant animal print and duck egg blue heel and platform. Another great pair are these Love me heart-appliqued suede pumps for £990

Kiss Me Dolores

How about these 'Kiss Me Dolores' for £665, these are very cute, they are black suede heels with fuchsia lips on the toes and fuchsia heels, these are part of the Pre Fall 12 collection and are also available in beige leather with red lips (see here) these are available for £675.

Or if you want to go for something simple, why not try out the 'Dolly Leather Platform Pumps' for £625 at Net-a-Porta, these are a simple black design with a gold island platform. You can even get 'Dolly Suede Slingback Pumps' which are a similar design as the Dolly Leather Pumps.

I think Charlotte Olympia shoes have to be my favourite at the moment!

Kurt Geiger - AW12

Esme (Pink)

Kurt Geiger have released their AW12 and i must say i really like some of the shoes!

Esme Star

I love these 'Esme; shoes for £160, i love the pink colour combined with the golden heel, the studs finish the shoe off perfectly, there are a couple of colours available - Tan/Yellow and Black/Blue, there is also a shoe called 'Esme Star' but i haven't been able to find a place you can purchase them yet, so hopefully they will be available to buy soon as i love them (See picture)

This pair of Red 'Doll' Shoes are perfect for the office, would go nice with a pencil skirt.

Now you cant beat a nice pair of animal print heels, and Kurt Geiger have got a lovely pair of Leopard print heels available - Elinda cost £240, i like this style as they are not a very high heel so again would be perfect for office wear? You can also get this style in a simple black and also a tortoiseshell brown design.

I like the style of these wedges - 'Greed' for £130, the sequins capture the light perfectly, they are available in a salmon colour and black.

I would definitely recommend having a look at the new collection at Kurt Geiger, as they have got a nice selection of shoes for both office wear and going out shoes.

Girl Meets Dress - Dress Hire

I've just found this great website (Girl Meets Dress) where you can hire out designer dresses for parties or special occasions and then return them, instead of forking out a fortune to buy the actual dress! If only i had a 'special occasion' to attend then i would definitely take advantage of this service.

You don't even have to sign up as a member and there is no joining fee, you just pay for hiring the dress. You can order weeks or months in advance and they deliver anywhere in the UK, even providing emergency next day service (just in case someone has the same dress!!)

There are a range of designer outfits available from Miu Miu, Alexander McQueen, Nina Ricci and many more! Check out the A-Z list of designers here.

You can hire out this Krystof Strozyna Orange Sand Dress the same dress worn by Cheryl Cole, and it will only cost you £49 to hire for 2 nights! Instead of paying the £900 price tag!

They even have a selection of bags, so you can be like Carrie Bradshaw's assistant Louise in the Sex and the City Movie and have a different designer bag ever couple of days!

So now you can dress like the stars! So go check it out!

Cheryl Cole - Stylist Pick shoes

I have just had a look at Cheryl Cole's shoe collection on Stylistpick, and i must say that i really like them all.

My favourite have to be these Lemon Bon Bon ones which are only £79.90 which i think is quite a reasonable price! I would team them with a nice simple body con dress (probably black)

The celebs seem to like Cheryl's collection too, such as Michelle Keegan who wore the 'Mojo' pair to the British Soap Awards 2012 after party to match her Forever Unique Sequin Aztec dress.

Cheryl at Summertime Ball 2012

Cheryl has hinted at creating her own fashion line saying 'I'd love to' i don't know about you but i would love to see a clothes line by Cheryl.

Cheryl has been spotted with some very 'out there' vibrant outfits, in her new video for 'Call My Name' she wore some bright print harem pants, which i wouldn't wear myself but she pulled them off. I did love the outfit she wore at the summertime ball, it isn't something you would wear on a day to day basis but is perfect for the stage, definitely gets your attention!

I have just ordered myself a pair of Hot to Trot Foxy shoes from Stylistpick for just £25 in the sale!!!! Bargain!!

Alexander McQueen - Swarovski Crystal Union Jack Clutch

Whilst doing the usual Internet 'Window Shop' i cam across this amazing Alexander McQueen Swarovski Crystal Union Jack Clutch on Matches Fashion, i love the skull clasp it adds a bit of quirkiness to the design, and of course it is all about Great Britain this year with the Jubilee and the Olympics so the Union Jack design is great. It does however cost £1,295 so a little out of my spend level!

There is a slightly cheaper Alexander McQueen Union Jack Clutch clutch in a similar design except the colours match the Union Jack red, white and blue. This one only costs £895 and although it still looks amazing i still prefer the Red Swarovski Crystal version.

This Queen of the Nile Clutch by Kate Spade is so cute, i love the camel clasp, its very different and unique and works well with the gold. It costs £221.63 but is only available from Bloomingdale's website in the US.

New Look have a nice little clutch for £44.99 which is available in either black or silver, the Religion Knuckle Disaster Clutch has a nice clasp which is a crown and diamante combination.

Now something a bit more affordable is the Union Jack Clutch for £20 from Totes to Amaze which is a great website with a nice selection of glam bags at reasonable prices, so i would definitely go check this out as it is a brilliant site.

The Glass Slipper Company

I have found this amazing website 'The Glass Slipper Company'. This is a website where you can send a pair of your favourite shoes and have them encrusted with diamante making them a one of a kind pair of shoes! 


Not only can you have your shoes encrusted you can even have your favourite clutch bag, a phone case and even microphone encrusting. This would be a great idea as a birthday/Christmas present, would be unique.

Prices for this vary and it is advised to get a quote before placing your order.


There are a lot of encrusted shoes around at the moment such as these 'Lemonade' pair from Kandee shoes, they are a lovely champagne colour and cost £200, these are also available in Pink and a boot design (prices vary from £200-£250 for these).

These 'Andrianna' pair from Chockers shoes are only £35 so considerably cheaper than the pairs from Kandee shoes, these are available in both pink and black. These are not as sparkly as the others but are still quite nice and great value.

Now if you are made of money how about trying this pair of Christian Louboutin 'Daffodile' pair for £3,795 (quite pricey).

Now just add a little OTT shoe to the mix, how about these 'Cinderella's Wish' shoes which cost £460 and are encrusted with crystals, pearls and glass embellishments, they are gorgeous!

Cinderella Rocked Her Fella are pretty similar to The Glass Slipper Company (mentioned above) so are probably another good one to have a look at if you want to glam up your shoes!

Britney Spears white dress - Azzedine Alaia

As you may have heard Louis Walsh stepped in for Simon Cowell recently on The X Factor (US) but i was more excited about Britney Spears' white dress by Azzedine Alaia, i love it! It is very chic and girly, i started looking for some similar dresses that are available in the shops.

These are the few i have found which i think are great:

Lorrna Crochet Lace Skater Dress - £26.99 - Miss Guided
White Broderie Anglaise Dress - £19.99 - New Look
Self Stripe Knot Back Dress - £29.99 - Topshop
White Lace Skater Dress - £35.00 - River Island
Jasmine White Lace Dress - £28.00 - A/Wear

Victoria Beckham - Mini Shoulder Bag

Victoria Beckham - Mini Shoulder Bag

I love these Mini Shoulder Bags by Victoria Beckham which are available from Harrods for £725 which is a little pricey but you know you want one! It is available in 3 colours, turquoise, yellow and orange. The turquoise is my favourite. I love how Victoria Beckham's designs are always simple yet are so elegant even her dresses are amazing especially the one worn by Cheryl Cole to the 'What to expect when you're expecting premiere' (Cut out Floor length dress from the SS12 collection).

Any way back to the bag, i have been looking for some more similar but at a reasonable price and i have come up with the following alternatives.

I have found this website - Zatchels who sell satchels which are handmade in the UK. I love the Pastel collection especially the Baby blue Leather satchel it cost £76 so its almost 10times cheaper than the Victoria Beckham one and is made to a high standard so not bad going.

This Emilia Frame Satchel from BooHoo caught my eye, its only £28 so its a steal! Available in four colours including Aqua, it is very chic and will go with many outfits.

This Former Handheld from Warehouse has to be one of my favourites it only costs £36 is available in beige or navy. It can be used as a grab bag or a shoulder bag, i love the triangular shape, again its simple but is sophisticated, perfect for the office.

Steve Madden - Awwsome Black Studs

Awwsome Black Stud heels

How amazing are these Awwsome Black Stud heels by Steve Madden!!!! I need these shoes!!! They are on the Steve Madden website for $149.95 in both black and silver, but i haven't been able to find anywhere in the UK that stock them (but i am making it my mission!!)

Since i cannot find them in the UK i have looked for some more alternatives! Whilst i was searching i found these dangerous pair of heels - Jeffrey Campbell creations, available from www.office.co.uk for £130, now you will definitely get a few compliments with this pair (even if it is just out of fear!).

How about a bit of colour block and studs with these Betsey Johnson's Alexii Black Multi heels again i have not been able to find anywhere in the UK that sells them (I'm not doing to good am i lol) but i just love the colour block on this pair of heels.

How about these Sienna Jade Studded Toe Platform heels from BooHoo for only £35.00 which is a great price, and even though there is only spikes on the toe area of the shoe they still look like killer heels (just a little calmer).

Now these Christian Louboutin 'Asteroid' pair look deadly (but amazing of course) although they do cost £945 so the more expensive option! But they are so ..... wow!

I've come across these Lorissa pair of court shoes from Kurt Geiger, they are quote pricey at £205 and to be honest I'm not too keen on them but i thought i would add them just in case they are to some people's liking, they appear to have a snake skin effect and then studs on the heel, i do like the heel but i think its the snake skin effect and maybe the shape of the shoe which puts me off??

Now for my final pick of studded shoes i have found a great website - Chockers Shoes, they have a quite a few pairs of studded shoes at brilliant prices, like these 'Stomp' heels for only £37!! Or how about these 'Jessie' pair of heels for £45 which are very similar to the Jeffrey Campbell Madame Black suede shoes from Office but are just a fraction of the price, so i would definitely recommend visiting Chockers Shoes its an amazing website!!

Big Brother sparkles

Well the new series of Big Brother began last night over on channel 5 and from what I could see it was more like celeb big brother filled with a load of z listers (models, porn stars, other halves of celebs).

Deana - Currently Miss India UK
Conor - Has a party trick where he can wrap his bits around his wrist!
Chris - Says he will be the biggest two faced person in the house
Caroline - Apparently has 5 hairbrushes (debatable if she uses them)
Benedict - Teacher turned Porn Star
Arron - Model
Adam - formerly a member of the and LA Crips
Ashleigh - Ever other word is a swear word - classy
Victoria - Model
Shievonne - Hula Hoop champion and former Playboy Bunny
Scott - Former Avon rep
Sara - Former Miss Edinburgh
Luke S - Club Promoter
Lydia - Professional dancer and engaged to Andy Scott-Lee
Luke A - Born female
Lauren - Can drive a tractor.

There was a lot of sparkles when it came to the contestants outfits, i loved Lauren's dress and sparkly pink heels, although i personally wouldn't have worn them together. You can get similar pink shoes, ones i have found are from Kandee Shoes (Pink Lemonade) and cost £168, i found some more pink sparkly shoes on the Viva La Diva website - Bordello Teeze Platform for only £73.54, these are a darker shade of pink.

Sara wore a very tiny Gold glitter dress which didn't leave much to the imagination! It was a cute little number but just a tad short and revealed a bit too much for my liking.

Lydia - Big Brother 2012 

I did like Caroline's prom style dress, it was black with some nice glitter and sparkle, although i think her hair could do with a good comb.

Lydia's dusty pink body con dress from Celeb Boutique was really nice too, it was simple yet i think the best outfit of the night, very sophisticated, although i don't know if Lydia is going to be as sophisticated in the house, especially after her reaction of been selected by Deana to go up for eviction this week!

There was another Celeb Boutique dress featured on Big Brother - the Beyonce Blue and Black body con dress worn by Victoria.

I am undecided if i will watch the rest of Big Brother as it looks so predictable, and i was hoping for the opening to be abit more exciting, i actually thought that the 'secret task' given to Deana was a bit boring! Maybe it will pick up? Who knows?

Colourful skirts

Pastel Flippy skater skirt

Blue Tropical Print vest

I just bought this lovely Pastel Flippy yellow skater skirt from Miss Selfridge today for £28 it is really nice and perfect for the summer, although I was a bit disappointed when I for home to discover that there was a little hole where the security tag was attached which means I am going to have to take it back and hopefully exchange it for one without security tag damage. It is only a slight hole but the material is the sort which might not hold if there is a slight tear or hole so id rather not risk it.

The Pastel Flippy skater skirt is also available in a few other colours including pink and blue, but i do prefer the yellow, I'm hoping it will go with my new Blue Tropical Print vest from Dorothy Perkins.

I was quite surprised with myself for going for a coloured skirt as i usually go for the standard black colour, so i have had a look for some more colourful skirts which i like the look of.

I like this Purple Airtex Pleated Skirt, i love the material and the length is quite good as it is not too short, It costs £34.00 from Topshop, i think this might go nice with a simple vest top and some summer wedges.

This Tropical Print Wrap drop skirt from Miss Selfridge has a lot going on but i do love the print, i would team it with a simple top so that the top and skirt don't clash. The drop skirt is quite popular at the moment and there are a few designs in shops ranging from plain colours to prints.

I do like the colour blocking on this Louche Seadra Box Pleat Skirt i found on Joy the store website for only  £29.00 its available in Red/Pink and then in a light and dark blue. If i had the Red/Pink skirt i would team it with maybe a cream blouse with a nice print to add a bit of detail to the outfit. I think this Cat Print pussybow blouse would work nice with the Louche Seadra Box pleat skirt, the print is quite unusual but quirky.

There are a lot of nice colourful skirts out there at the moment but i think Miss Selfridge have  great selection at the moment so go check them out.

Kelly Brook - My new girl crush??

I think many would agree that Kelly Brook is gorgeous! She always looks beautiful whether it is on the red carpet or popping to the shops, i really do envy her. She is naturally beautiful and has amazing curves.

I just loved the outfit she wore to the BAFTA's, the Chantilly Lace dress by Jacques Azagury, i loved the style, the lace detail was gorge, she definitely went down a hit at the event, showing off her perfectly tanned legs in this beautiful sunshine!

Not only is Kelly gorgeous on the red carpet she is also a keen business woman! She has recently revealed her new range at New Look, which may i add is brilliant, i love the whole collection, my favourites are these Pink and Floral Print Peep Toe Court shoes for only £24.99 and you can even get a matching bag again only £24.99. But what about this amazing Red Spot Pencil skirt, great for mixing things up when your sorting your work wardrobe out! There is also a Kelly Brook Lingerie and swimwear collection at New Look so go check them out!

Kelly Brook also has a Homeware Collection at Argos!! Which includes some pretty bed spreads and cushions.

Kelly has just launched her band new website, so i definitely recommend checking it out, www.kellybrook.com

Pencil Skirts

Since the sun is now shining the skirts are making an appearance! Unfortunately my favourite black pencil skirt broke (the zip broke) so i was not a happy bunny!!! So i have started to look for a replacement, i am however looking for something a little different to a simple black skirt.

I have found this lovely Kelly Brook Red Spot Pencil skirt from New Look for £24.99 and it is gorgeous, the colour is nice and i love the polka dot print. Kelly Brook has a really nice collection at New Look at the moment, so i would definitely recommend checking it out!

Kelly Brook Red Spot Pencil Skirt

How about this Light Beige Midi Textured skirt from River Island for only £18.00 the colour is nice and neutral so is quite refreshing for spring.

Photographic Print Pencil Skirt

This Photographic Print pencil skirt is really nice from ASOS for £20.00, this is definitely different from a plain black skirt, i would probably team it with a plain blouse and some peep toe heels, making a stand out outfit.

This Jade Peplum Pencil skirt from Dorothy Perkins is very on trend with the peplum waist, i like this as it is nice and simple but the colour is great and not to over powering.

My top dresses for Summer!

Hasn't the weather been amazing this week!!!! Definitely time to get the Summer wardrobe out! I have been looking at all the summer dresses available at the moment and i have picked out a few of my favourite.

Coral Lace Dress

1. Coral Lace Dress £45.00 from Miss Selfridge
This Coral dress is my favourite of the 5 i have selected , i love the colour and the cut out section. You can never go wrong with lace.


This AX Paris Yellow Crotchet Detail dress is available from New Look for only £21.00 which is a bargain, the colour is very summery, i love the cut out detail around the waist, it adds a nice simple bit of detail.

White Poppy Print

 White Poppy Print Dress £24.99 from New Look
I found this dress on New Looks website, i do like most of their dresses, they always have beautiful prints, but this one was my favourite, i like all the colours, it reminds me of the flowers when they bloom in spring!


How cute is this Turquoise/Pink midi dress from Dorothy Perkins, i just love the flamingo print, the length of the dress is quite good as it is not too short. It only costs £39.50

This Tropical Print Silk dress from Warehouse is very loud and just might be my favourite!! The print and colours just make me think of going on holiday, it does cost £65 so it is the more expensive dress i have selected but i think it would be worth it.

Feathery Fashion

Over the last few days some celebs have been spotted wearing feathery fashion, Beyonce and Cheryl Cole to name a couple! If i am honest i wasn't too keen on Beyonce's Givenchy Haute Couture dress at first but it has grown on me slightly, i think that what put me off was that it revealed to much? Cheryl's Stephane Rolland dress on the other hand was gorgeous, i love the white and red contrast, it is very demure and sophisticated. 

Which did you prefer?

This has started making me think about what feathery fashion is available out there, i found a couple of things. One of which is this Premium Full Feather Skirt for £80 from Topshop it is very eye catching, I'm not sure i would be able to pull this off?

This McBerry One Shoulder Lace & Feather dress would be more my style although it is a bit more pricey, costing £250 on the Designer Desirables website.

This Lipsy VIP Waxed Lace Feather dress is gorgeous, i like that the feathers are not too overpowering, it makes the dress look more delicate.

If you are not a fan of wearing feathered clothing why not use some feathered accessories such as this Nude Feather bag from ASOS for only £25. How about splashing a bit of colour with these Sarisa Tribal Earrings for only £5.99 at Miss Guided (bargain), or for a bit more sophistication why not try these Glamorous Feather Chandelier Earrings from Miss Selfridge for £18.50

Colour Block Heels

Elissia Purple Colour Block

I'm really liking Colour Block heels at the moment especially in pastel colours, there are quite a few colour variations out there at the moment, i have selected a few of my favourites:

Elissia Purple Colour Block Platform heels from Boohoo for £30.00 i love the pastel colours on this shoe.

Natural Colour Block Platform heels from Debenhams for £50.00 this has nice neutral simple colours.

Colour Constrast Suede Heels from AX Paris for £32.99, a lot like the pair from Boohoo i love the colour combo, they could brighten any outfit up.

Now lets not forget the brightest of them all!! The shoes Cheryl Cole was wearing in her video 'Call My Name' - the Brian Atwood Alima Neon Pumps for only £670 which i have mentioned in a previous blog.

Patriotic Fashion

2012 is a very British year with the Olympics and the Queens Jubilee, so it is great to see some fashion brands are flying the flag for Britain by releasing some clothing/shoes etc with Patriotic prints and slogans!

Just today i came across Dorothy Perkins DP London range which include printed T-shirts such as this London Eye Tee for £18.00, which is a great price. They also have some Union Jack wellies for only £23.00, now that is very British!!! I love it!! Lets not forget that us Brits love a cuppa, and Dorothy Perkins have picked up on that with these novelty 'My Cup of Tea' socks  for £2.50

New Look have also got a range called 'Cool Britannia' which includes this London Bus Print vest for £12.99, also this Union Jack umbrella for £7.99 (will be a must have with the British Summer!!) Perhaps if the weather is more forgiving then why not try this Abbey Dawn Union Jack Bikini, its great for £34.99

Churchill - Chockers

I found a website called Chockers Shoes which has some nice Union Jack print heels such as these 'Churchill' hells for only £35 which is a bargain!! 

Animal Print Shoes

I love Amanda Holden's eye catching Leopard print shoes which she wore a few weeks back at one of the Britain's Got Talent auditions. I really like an animal print. I have had a look for some alternative animal print shoes which look just as good as Amanda's.

Lets start at the highest end of the cost scale with these amazing Charlotte Olympia Heels at Net-a-Porta which cost £740 but they are so beautiful i love the duck egg blue wedge. (p.s Cheryl Cole has been spotted wearing these whilst in Paris, teaming them with a leopard print dress by Ksubi available at Net-a-Porta for £320.

How about these Pinki Leopard Print sandals from Kandee Shoes which cost £170, they are very different from the usual animal print colour.

These Orange Leopard Print Embellished Court shoes from River Island have an animal print with a twist, they have some golden studs and spike detail which make them very quirky and different to the usual animal print.

Check out these Abbey Dawn Leopard Peep toe creations that i found at Very for £97, the great thing about buying from Very is that you can choose to buy now pay later!!

But i think my favourite place to buy animal print heels has to be Dorothy Perkins, they have a great selection, including these Leopard Satin Court Shoes for £38 or these Leopard Print Platform Courts for £65

Cheryl Cole - Brian Atwood Alima Neon Shoes

Alima Neon

I finally found Cheryl Cole's Neon heels!! They are lush, i love them, they are by Brian Atwood - Alima Neon Patent-Leather Pumps. Cheryl wears these gorgeous heels in her music video 'Call my name'.They cost £670 on the Net-A-Porta website, which would probably break my bank balance, so i have attempted to look for some similar alternatives.

I found a great website for shoes recently, 'Kandee Shoes' which has some great creations, and great for finding neon shoes!!! These Apple Sours shoes are great and only cost £140.

How about these lovely pink slingback peep toe heels from River Island which only cost £60, i love the yellow heel on this shoe, this would go really nice with the reliable LBD.

These Krazy Paving Neon shoes from Office are also a great pair of shoes (see my previous blog on these brilliant shoes) They only cost £78.00

Cheryl - Call my name - Altuzarra Blazer

Cheryl's new video has finally been revealed and not surprising she is wearing some nice clothes.

One of my favourite pieces is the floral/bird blazer she wears which i think i may have found (or one similar) on the Browns Fashion website (see here) it is an Altuzarra creation although it does cost £995 so slightly pricey, so i have found a couple of more bank friendly options:

The first of which is this Black Floral Printed jacket from Debenhams for £35 - so definitely a more cheaper option put i think it needs more colour.

Another nice alternative is this Crafted Printed Blazer from Republic costing only £20 in the sale!!

This Glamorous Floral Trim blazer is pretty cute too, it is plain on the outside but has a really nice inside and trim. This is available from Bank Fashion for £35.00

However this Tropical Print Blazer has to be my favourite one, i love the colour and the pattern is so feminine. It only costs £28.00 from Ax Paris.

Why not check out Cheryl's new video for Call My Name and see what you think of her outfits?

Curvy Kate Lingerie

I have just discovered this amazing website (Curvy Kate Lingerie) which has bra's for the more curvier ladies, they have cup sizes from D-K, which is perfect for me!! They also have matching underwear from sizes 8 - 22 (UK).

The styles available are really nice i would definitely recommend visiting the website to check out all the styles. My favourite one is Angel Bluebell/White which is from their Spring/Summer 2012 collection.

The Lingerie is available at a number of stockists, both online and in store, the online retailers include New Look, Very.co.uk, Littlewoods (I'm hoping they will have them in store soon though as i shop at New Look often). There is a list of UK stores which do have them in stock too, check the list out here.

You can follow Curvy Kate on Twitter (@curvykate) for updates on their range.

Frill Dress by 'Oh My Love' at Topshop

I really like this Frill Dress from Topshop, the colour is very summery, the frills really add a nice simple detail.

The dress is only £39.00 from the 'Oh My Love' collection at Topshop. Although please note that this dress is part of Topshops Concession Collection so can only be returned to their website not to a store.

Although the Concessions Collection is only available online they do have some really nice items available, why not check it out here.

Whilst i was browsing the Topshop website i did stumble across these Whamm Mega Layer Wedges which i think would go nice with the Frill dress, they are a nice pink colour and cost £65.00

Coast Stores - All - DAISY PEARL CLUTCH

Daisy Pearl Clutch

I love this Daisy Pearl Clutch bag from Coast, it is so feminine and reminds me of Spring.

The detail is gorgeous, the lace flowers and faux pearls are so pretty! I t is very cute and girly. The bag is available for £60.00 from Coast.

Coast have a nice selection of clutch bags on their website, another one i like is the Paloma Pearl Clutch, which is similar to the Daisy Pearl clutch, the shape is the same but has a different pattern.

If only i had enough money!

I was browsing through the Victoria Beckham collection, and i found this dress (Contrast-shoulder Stretch Cotton Blend Dress) on the Net-a-Porta website (only £995) if only i could afford it!! (I'd say it is worth the money - my boyfriend would probably disagree)

I love Victoria Beckham's fashion line it is so elegant and classy, but the contrast shoulder stretch dress was my favourite it is very feminine, the dress has a zip at the back from top to bottom which adds a little detail to the dress.

The dress is from Victoria Beckham's SS12 collection and is definitely a winner for me!

I follow Victoria Beckham on twitter and over the last week or so she has been posting some really good tweets and the most cutest pictures of her and Harper's outfits! So sweet. I would definitely recommend following her on twitter (if you are not already) - @victoriabeckham

To balance out the price a bit i would wear these Cream Pointed Court shoes from Dorothy Perkins which are only £22.00

Limited Lilac T-Bar Block Heels

Check out these very cute Limited Lilac T-Bar Block Heels available in 5 different colours for just £39.99 at New Look.

They would look good with a pair of denim shorts like this pair of Star and Stripe ones from Miss Selfridge for £30.00, then team with a white/cream top or jumper, like this Ladder Slouch jumper for £26.00 at Dorothy Perkins.

Then all you need is to dress the outfit up with a long necklace and some chunky bracelets.

Parisian White Spot Ruffle Dress

Parisian White Spot Ruffle Dress - Perfect for the office! The peplum trend is starting to grow on me, i was a bit unsure about it at first. I spotted this dress whilst on my usual 'window shopping' internet browse. This is great for summer office wear and it only costs £24.99 so its a bargain. It would go great with a nice pair of black court shoes. These Elsie ones from Kurt Geiger would be ideal, they cost £100 but the style is nice and simple which means the attention will be kept on the poka dot print on the dress.

Pink Heart Print Mini Prom Dress

How cute is this Pink heart print mini prom dress from River Island! For only £30 it is a steal!

The print is very pretty and feminine. It would be ideal for the summer, i would probably team it with these Light Pink Peep Toe Shoes for £60.00

Light Pink Peep Toe

Then perhaps adding this Butterfly Eclectic Bracelet £12.00 and some Pearl Centre Crystal Flower earrings £6.00, both from Accessorize.

Pink Print Embellished Court Shoes - River Island

Following on from my previous blog about the Jeffrey Campbell Madame shoes from Office i have found these shoes from River Island which again have the spike's but are much more colourful!! pink print embellished court shoes - heels - shoes / boots - women - River Island

I love the print on this it grabs your attention, if i was to have these shoes i would probably wear with a plain dress (perhaps an LBD) so that all the attention is focused on these amazing shoes!!

They are only £65.00 from River Island.

Wedge Wellies

I think i may need to invest in a pair of wellies after the last few days of rain!

Although we all know wellies can be a bit unsightly at times, however you can buy Wedge Wellies which are amazing! They are stylish wellies with a wedge heel!!

My favourite pair has to be the Savvy Unique, they are black with a pink pattern. They only cost £40.00 and are 100% waterproof which is ideal for the British weather! The heel is 2 1/2 inch so it is a suitable height for walking in.

There are currently 3 different ranges of Wedge Wellies available:

• Unique Range: Designed with fashion and comfort in mind.
• Flex Range: Has an extendable gusset.
• Curve Range: Accommodates to a wider fit.

I do remember seeing them on Dragons den a couple of years ago and thought it was a brilliant idea and so did Theo Paphitis who invested in the company.

The prices on their website also include delivery which i think is a brilliant idea as i always hate getting to the checkout and finding out you have to pay an extra few quid!! It is usually 48 hour delivery if orders are placed before 1pm Monday - Friday.

Kandee Shoes

I found this great website, Kandee Shoes, it has a great selection of shoes which are great at catching your eye. Bright colours and quirky styles my favourite pair have to by these Rhubarbie pair, they are half yellow and half pink just like the rhubarb and custard sweet, they cost £140 and are available in 3 other different colour combinations.

Many celebs have been spotted wearing a number of Kandee shoes, namely Jessie J who was seen sporting 'Dirty Lemonade Sneaker', Amy Childs has worn a pair of Limonade Booties, and Billie Faiers has been spotted wearing Peanut Butter Crunchy Booties.

Kandee currently deliver to worldwide destinations. If you are ordering within the UK then usually orders are dispatched within 24hours and are delivered next working day.

Abbey Dawn Black Pretty Please Studded Platforms

I found some more amazing studded heels Abbey Dawn Black Pretty Please Studded Platforms, these ones are available at New Look and are part of Avril Lavigne's Abbey Dawn label they only cost £74.99.

Also available on New Looks website in the Abbey Dawn range is a couple of tops, my favourite one is the Pink I Heart top for £26.99, i love the off shoulder look and the loose fit so its great for use in the summer.

There are also a couple of pairs of pumps, one with studs the other with a leopard print. There is another pair of heels (Rock star platform) which appear to have the American flag printed on it which looks really good, these ones only cost £54.99 which is a good price for a celebrity label.

By the looks of it the Abbey Dawn products at New Look are only available online and if you need to return them you would need to send them back in the post.

Jeffrey Campbell Madame Black Suede Shoes

I must have these shoes they are amazing. I love the spikes it makes plain black heels look very edgy.

They do cost £120.00 from Office but they are so great, i better start saving up. They are available in both black and blue denim, im not sure i would go for the blue denim myself.

If i had them i would probably team with a simple LBD so that the attention was mainly on my shoes!!
