H&M Concious Exclusive Collection

My say on the H&M Concious Exclusive Collection....in selected stores and online from the 4th April. You've all seen the adverts for the concious collection, full of jungle inspired prints and more fresh spring in its step than a slinky! Well this is as it indicates a little more luxurious...

As I don't have much time, I'll sum up below the pics, sorry guys but I'm sure its a relief for some!

This dress instantly makes me think of my fellow blogger Ele-phant, perfect colour on her, amazing embroidery and a stunning shape...very keen - £69.99

I love a tulip shaped skirt, and with beautiful detailing and murky waters colour and print, I'd be convinced if I was the right shape to wear it...£69.99

The obligatory prom looking dress on first glance, but with that bust line and dark nail colour, it could work for the christmas do...£149.99

My first impression was that I wasn't too keen on the 3d roses on this but to be honest I'm slightly bored of graphic prints and on the right person it could work...I also like the fact the dress is layered to an almost sheer red, works better to give the impression of an higher quality - £69.99

As the most expensive piece this stands out for its girly detail and colour, it could be the quite obvious choice for a bride, I'm thinking...a hippy girl, no shoes, bare sand, beautiful complexion, a sub £200 dress for a wedding is a bargain!

The shoe thats everywhere, great proportions, nice heel height, worth a try out at £29.99

My absolute favourite piece, I LOVE kimonos and the colour of this means its great for the bedrooom or the restaurant, over a chic little dress on a season changing night for a little extra coverage....I can feel my credit card strings pulling...£59.99

Enjoy

And the winner is...

(Obviously Chris Brown saw my blog last week on white, white, WHITE!...at least I'll pretend to take credit for the hotness he rocked yesterday!)

So....The award for best dressed goes toooooooooo...I jest! And that on my part, was such a played out introduction, but time is money people, and I am spinning with timescales and to do's!

Just a few of my favourite ensembles from last nights festivities...

Not him?! *sorry..nails and dress I love!

Who knew a matching jacket (as madly cut as it is) would work? But it does!

Im not usually a fan of the ol' cutouts but this is sex on her ridiculously gorgous legs!!!

I think Maroon 5 look ridiculously dappa and take the whole "band matching outfits" to another level!

Lady in red...SNM!

Chris looking HOT! *swoon

And just on a cute note, did you see Wiz protectively escorting Amber on the red carpet, touching and truely beautiful!

Enjoy

Golden Globes 2013...Hollywood glamour?

To be honest I haven't been blown away...Casually browsing over Elle's coverage of the Golden Globes, I found myself desperatley seeking to be knocked off my chair, but....niento!

To remain on the positive, but probably far too critical, here are my faves?...(already sounds harsh, eek!)

I love the detailing and the sheer panel over the shoulders, but as for the clutch and the makeup,not feeling it. I would have chosen something very similar in colour for the clutch, and also very delicate in design, in fact I would have gone neutral, neutral, NEUTRAL and let my hair do the popping!

I love the colour, the hair is simple and I NEED the tangerine lips, in fact theres not much I can criticise, it just doesnt blow me away? Why???

I really like the texture and shade of red in this number, maybe the picture doesnt do the makeup and hair much justice but its just lacking? Its doesnt have to be all jaa jaa but a little something something, it is the red carpet darling.

McQueen...I love you! I love the neckline and the fact that Kate is so HOT! But I think I would have gave the belt a miss...and again my chair legs are stable?

I actually really love this dress, it stood out because the dark panelling makes it not particularily "hollywood glamour"...but Im sorry, shes just not working it, honey! (starting to feel very catty but sometimes we just have to say!)

Really like the plunge neckline and japanese influence, but the feet look really bad hideous...can't say Im a fan on the book clutches either, I left those behind with my teddy bear backpack.

What did you think?

Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 premieres - LA & London!

So the day is upon us and Twilight Breaking Dawn Part 2 is in cinemas tomorrow night, have you booked you tickets? (I have!)

The premieres in LA & London have been and gone and I have to say I prefer Kristens LA look! The Zuhair Murad jumpsuit trouser jumpsuit was not my favourite due to the bottom half, the top half was outstandinly beautiful though!

The dress, by the same designer no less has the little details I love, like the necklace tucked into the dress bodice (perhaps the pendant is something she wants to keep hidden? - thats just something I would do?) and the barely there colour against her skin (swoon).

What do you think?

P.S I havent had time to review all the outfits (lunchbreaks?pah) although Taylor was looking mighty fine, and I'm more of an Robert fan!

Margiela for H&M preview

The Maison Martin Margiela and H&M sneak preview is available to view online, but officially available the 15th November; there are a few pieces I like...and its well priced too! I wasn't keen on the previous collaboration with Versace but this collection is far more me, amazing cuts and materials to die for!

I love this puffa coat as it takes me back to my youth, I can feel the warmth just looking at it! I like the fact that when wearing it I could pull up the collar, walk down the road and feel like no-one can see me!

The drape of the red dress makes it a statement, and it is extremeley timeless as you could wear it anytime, anywhere! I'd even be tempted to rock it with boots and a leather in the day!

But this is my ultimate favourite! Looks can be decieving and when I saw the price I was shocked! It is actually a long tshirt dress with a print, but it looks amazing, the detail of the design printed is beautiful, and I particularily love the sides! I want, I want!!!

Enjoy
