Celebrity Style: Sienna Miller in New York
Sienna Miller was spotted walking her dog in New York City on Saturday looking very stylish. She wore muted colours adding interest with mixed textures topping off the look with a military jacket from Twenty8Twelve's Autumn line. Sienna was carrying a burgundy Prada tote, which she is rarely seen without these days!
Exclusive! Leigh Lezark Dishes On Her Must Have Products!
The Spring 2010 Twenty8Twelve Fashion show was so much fun. Not only were the clothes amazing, but I was able to speak to Alexa Chung about her beauty secrets right after she and FabSugar UK talked fashion. And as if that's not enough, we also got to see Anna Wintour in the front row!
Trend Alert: Drop Front Jacket
Blazers are a wardrobe staple and remain a must have season upon season. The only difference is that they get a slight update each time and this season it's been given an edgy feel with draped detailing.
There are a variety of styles for a range of budgets from a drop front style at Topshop (£60), to a softer
Exclusive! A Few Fab Words with Alexa Chung
Last week, BellaSugar UK and I managed to catch up with style icon Alexa Chung at the Spring 2010 Twenty8Twelve show. Yesterday, her beauty secrets were revealed and now here is her quick chat with me about her favourite shows, her plans for the week and her Mulberry bag.
When we met she was wearing a The Smiths t-shirt and a silver jacquard mini skirt showing off her enviable pins.
Exclusive! Alexa Talks Spots and Her Secret to Good Skin
Following the Twenty8Twelve Fashion Show, FabSugar UK and I were about to leave when we spotted Alexa Chung taking a break on the bench in the lobby. Lucky us walked on over and got the chance to chat with her for a few minutes about her background, her beauty secrets, and her thoughts on having a brand-new Spring 2010 Mulberry bag named after her!
You'll have to wait until later on in the week to hear about the amazing Alexa bag, but for now, I've got the skinny on her signature winged eyeliner, her theory on why she's only had a spot once in her life (erm, can you say skin envy) and the icons who've been her beauty inspiration.
Celeb Style: Sienna Miller
The spotlight might have been on Sienna and Savannah's Twenty8Twelve Spring collection, which by the way, looks very cool, but we can't stop admiring Sienna's cute outfit. I guess that's why she's a designer, right? Her Fashion Week ensemble consists of gray skinny jeans, a blush pink printed top, and a pair of chunky platform boots.
London Fashion Week, Spring 2010: Twenty8Twelve
There has been a lot of hype surrounding the Twenty8Twelve catwalk shows since they began last season. Spring 2010 was no exception with an impressive front row boasting Anna Wintour, Alexa Chung (maybe she scored herself a future Vogue cover?), Pixie and Peaches Geldof and Leigh Lezark. Much like Topshop Unique, the soundtrack to this show was early '90s grunge and this was definitely reflected on the catwalk.
Celebs Keep Lining Up To Check Out Fashionable London!
London Fashion Week comes to a triumphant close today, and yesterday the shows and parties were still in full swing with fashion folk mingling with celebs all over the city! American Vogue editor Anna Wintour was seated next to Alexa Chung at the twenty8twelve show last night, and they seemed to share a laugh — do you think Alexa will be a future Vogue US cover star? Pixie Geldof sat on the other side of Alexa for the show, designed by Savannah and Sienna Miller, who had flown over from her starring role on Broadway to see the collection's London debut.
Trend Alert: Pleat Front Shorts
When the weather is fine, you will probably want to expose a little more flesh and this can be tricky when heading to your work place. On eof the best ways to achieve this in a stylish way this season is to wear tailored shorts. Chloe featured this look on the catwalk and it has been worked on the red carpet by Chloe Sevigny, Kate Bosworth and Sienna Miller.
