House made of paper


A few weeks ago I discovered this great site, Fashion Confidential, and I was just wondering if any of you had heard of it before?

It sells designer clothing, through stores like Matches and Net-a-Porter, so you can easily browse a massive selection of clothes, shoes and bags. There is literally hundreds of designers to choose from, including Burberry, Balmain, Chloe, Marc Jacobs and Vivienne Westwood to name but a few.



However what makes it different is that there's so much more than shopping. This site doesn't just sell, but it helps you find ideas and great bargains both on the web and on the high street. The boutique directory is full of old favourites, as well as great new stores, and the Bargain Hunter section is genius. It has details of all the best designer sample sales and a calendar showing all the dates. It also picks out the best individual items from websites like The Outnet, Matches Style Steals and Browns Labels for Less.


The Style Report section is essentially a blog of the site, full of beautiful photos and celebrity inspiration, I'm already addicted! Also one of the editorial features at the moment is an interview with the designers from Preen, which I loved reading, and there's also a little list of blogs I'm sure you'll love if you don't already know them!




However my favourite part of the website is definitely the new magazine. Although I love savouring a good issue of Vogue, I think online magazines, or e-zines, are the future and this one is great. It contains loads of catwalk photos, style tips, designer interviews and the hottest new pieces all linked to stores where you can buy them. This month's issue is packed full of great Christmas gifts and outfit ideas - if only I could afford some of it!


I hope you enjoyed this post - now click here to visit Fashion Confidential!

Coming towards her, stuck still no turning back

Sorry it's been a while, school has been really hectic these last few weeks. However I have had some amazing weekends: I've been to Bristol and Oxford and seen Lily Allen! Over a hundred followers now too, be back soon people! x

Let's all meet up in the year 2000, won't it be strange when we're all fully grown

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, I was ill at the weekend and have had what seems like mountains of school work recently. Anyways I just wanted to share these few songs with you, saw the first one on NMEtv tonight and have suddenly become obsessed with her, Ellie Goulding. Was actually gutted to find out her album isn't out until June next year! The second song was produced by Frankmusik, who to be honest I'm not a great fan of, but I have to say it is lovely. Anyways I hope you like them, and keep checking back as I do actually have some better posts scheduled soon!

You've probably heard, but Alexa has her own (yes, her own) Mulberry bag now. I'm in love.
