Wedding Season...

The world has certainly caught wedding fever as the we wait with baited breath for the Royal Wedding on 29th April the fashion blogs are alive with the sound of "what will Kate wear".  Vogue then went on to feature a collection of simply stunning wedding dresses in honour of the big day and not one to be left out of anything bridal orientated, queen of the wedding dress Vera Wang made a little announcement of her own today.  After drooling over her White by Vera Wang collection for US bridal wear chain David's Bridal we can now drool over her contemporary yet oh so elegant line of bridesmaid dresses.  The line will consist of seven dresses ranging from $158 (to be precise) to $200 and shoes priced at $58 to $98. Talking about the collection, Wang herself described it as "very youthful" with pieces in colours such as orchard, ameythist, charcoal and champagne.  Images of the full collection haven't yet been release, however we have been given a preview which gives us a fantastic insight in what to expect...


Marc by Marc ♥ ...

I am a sucker for Marc by Marc...as you may have gathered if you are a regular reader, and I am absolutely besotted with the Bella striped silk dress.  With navy and off white block stripes and a dash of bright yellow the dress screams preppy summer chic and is at the top of my must have list for this week.

Festival Fever...

The festival of all festivals, Coachella, kicked festival season off this week and seen celebrities of all kinds flock to west coast USA to bask in some mid April sunshine and bid for leader of the fashion pack with new festival trends.

The LWD (little white dress) appears to be a 'go to' for the fashion savvy, with Alessandra Ambrosio, Whitney Port and Alexa Chung all opting for a simple white dress and piling on the accessories.  Katy Perry played with the eras and was spotted in a beautiful 50's style lace layered D&G dress, Isabel Lucas done glamorous gypsy chic and left the hot pants to Kate Bosworth, Camilla Belle and Nicole Richie.


Ball Gown Elegance...

I'm a sucker for a beautiful gown and with Royal Wedding fever catching, I selected a few I may wear for the special day...I joke, I'm not invited, but I may indulge in one of these lovelies to wear to my tea party.

Katy Perry does GHD...

She's the golden girl, the sickly sweet pop princess who can do no wrong. So its really not surprising that GHD snapped her up to become the face of the Eras of Style limited edition collection.  She's versatile, beautiful and ridiculously sexy...and sells GHD so well.

The campaign, shot by the amazing David LaChapelle, sees Katy posing with three different hairstyles that epitomise styles from the 50's, 70's and 80's.

My Friday must haves...

The @Queen_UK would officially declare it #Ginoclock by this time, so I thought I'd round my week off with my Friday must haves.  Anything striped (preferably blue and white) is my weakness at the minute so there's sure to be something striped that creeps in.
