The Art of Shoe Design... Nicholas Kirkwood

I'll leave you guys with these precious shoes for the weekend... Walking into his Boutique it's like entering an art gallery. Full of colour, different shapes... Full of originality, beauty and design... What else can you ask for?

Have you heard of Roland Mouret yet?

With the inauguration of the new Flagship Store in the heart of Mayfair in February, Roland Mouret has become the designer of all celebrities...



I had the chance to walk in the impressive store, just in front of the Connaught Hotel this morning and... WOW I am absolutely speechless. With a recognisable French, simplistic design, Roland dresses and garments are both, glamourous and sophisticated.

His famous Galaxy dress and tight in the waist, pencil skirt below the knee designs promises a season of both vintage and elegant dressing particularly flattering for those more curvacious, or those who are not so much and would like to bring more attention to their curves.



With a beautiful soft orange/ peach colour dresses, wine and dark red, black... His collection is a classic and a must this season... does this cut seem familiar? All the stores in the high street are imitating this look... Seems like the old is coming back, who would have said that Marilyn Monroe's body stereotype is back on?

Future post on Roland's copy cats in the High St! It's definitely the perfect fit for ALL those occasions where we just want to look spectacular... So may be worth it to have a look at slightly, less pricey garments although, let's face it, there's nothing quite like the original!

Something worth mentioning... His shoes... B E A U T I F U L. It was a surprise for me since I was not looking for the shoes as much as the dresses, but it was a very pleasant surprise and a good discovery. I'm sorry, I have not seen anything similar in any other stores... Just amazing. High, simple, smart, sexy... Definitely worth the originals!!

Hello little miss fabulous...



Dress: Allsaints
Blazer: Topshop
Shoes: Louboutin
Clutch Bag: Balenciaga envelope.

Mini Black Dress... Always so handy for so many occasions. You don't want to look to explosive, or flashy, you just want to look correct. This beautiful Allsaints Dress with pleats, inspired in a vintage style would look great with some colourful shoes and bag. For the Christmas office dinner with all the crew; we are NOT trying to seduce anyone! Just look elegant, but beautiful and show our good sense of fashion! For the lucky ones, these original Louboutins, far from being the typical shoe, they add on to your "vintage" but modern look. Black Blazer, let the shoes be the "main character" of this look. And once again, my very favourite... Balenciaga envelope!! What a beautiful design...

And for the more curvacious or reserved about showing too much skin! (especially in winter...) Here, another idea for a very handy MBD... Very very simple but flattering, easy to pull off, great with the accessories mentioned above... Make the simple, extraordinary...

Talking about... HOT outfits...


Top and blazer: Topshop
Balenciaga envelope
Kurt Geiger heels
Leather trousers: Maje

Leather trousers is THE ultimate! And if they are burgundy... Just, simply, extremely.... sexy.
I like the colour burgundy, love it! so close to red but not yet... slightly more discreet and elegant. You already have spectacular trousers, let's keep the rest in darker colours... But don't be boring! Black as a colour is already very correct, simple/ boring... Make sure it has some cool design, like the beautiful Topshop corset or the amazing sparkly Kurt Geigers and for the clutch... Balenciaga, hey, why not? Stunning and ready to roll...

Something about Zara Blazers...

I was looking for jackets the other day walking around Oxford and Regent St. God, I love that street!
Topshop, Mango, River Island, French Connection, Urban Outfitters, American Apparel, Accessorize, Ted Baker, Karen Millen, H&M, Allsaints... And Zara. WOW, how can one choose only one of their blazers?
For casual day time, night time, office...
So I decided to come back home, and combine the jackets I truly loved to try and make up my mind... Mission failed. I still want all of them! This is how I played around with some of them see how you like them, all for different occasions, and why not? Dream about some of the more expensive yet BEAUTIFUL accessories...


Blazer: Zara 59,95 EUR
Boots: Office 85 GBP
Falabella bag: Stella Mccartney 685 GBP
Dress: Maje 215 EUR

THE OUTFIT for an extremely sophisticated yet "casual" look. The boots and the blazer make the whole thing look more casual, you don't want to look too elegant, but still smart and aware of the latest trends!
Maje has recently been bought by the LVMH group, the reason why they are expanding massively! They are close to Bond Street, Notting Hill, Covent Garden soon... Beautiful French design, simple but very feminine.
The Blazer very British Hunting style, it is so on this winter! make sure to combine it with plain colours it will give the whole outfit a different vibe.
And of course... My favourite, Falabella bag... Yes, orange! why not? let's give this winter some colour...


Blazer: Zara 99,95 EUR
Top and jeggings: Abercrombie 48 and 78 GBP
Shoes: Kurt Geiger 119 GBP (Sale!)
Clutch: Stella Mccartney 465 GBP

For THAT special drink after work... beautiful. Jeggings, so "not trying too hard", a simple but cute white top, some beautiful leopard shoes from Kurt Geiger to Upgrade the outfit. The stunning stella's clutch, (or any subtle golden clutch for those - including myself - that cannot afford such a luxury!) and the amazing sparkly Zara blazer. Why do I love this outfit? Because it is clearly fashionable but not too flashy. One has to be careful with the golden things but they just look too good with jeans and a T-shirt!



Blazer: Zara 49,95 EUR
Tee Dress: Allsaints 70 GBP
Shoes: Charlotte Olympia 655 GBP
Clutch: Mulberry 350 GBP

This Blazer absolutely got me! My friend got it a few weeks ago and I fell in love with it! So beautiful. Great combination of classic (shape, model) and modern (leather sleeves) just fantastic! With a Tee Dress from All Saints, the jacket already calls someone's eye, so we want to keep it as simple as possible with the dress! And wear it with some STUNNING high heeled shoes; why not? I chose these Charlotte's... Let's feel like we're walking over the moon and back... Jacket and dresses in simple colours let's give the outfit a touch of red with the Mulberry's clutch! Now we are talking...


Blazer: Zara 49,95 EUR
Dress: Ted Baker 149 GBP
Shoes: Charlotte Olympia 745 GBP

My dearest Charlotte... Again!! One can dream...
Ok... Let's forget about the dressing casual, or subtle... Tonight... LETS DRESS TO KILL.
Aim: To be looked at. Yes, keep being elegant, and correct but... Let's turn some heads around! Red, always calls our attention that is why, dark greay apart from black goes great with red, it puts it down a little. Shoes, go crazy tall! What I love about this dress is that it's long sleeved so even if after a few hours, or inside a restaurant or club you get warm... You will still be correct. Stunning and correct.

Conclusion... All these blazers are needed this season!!

Perfect outfit for Casual daytime date

Hat and Jumper from Topshop
Bag from Diesel
White jeans from Levis
Shoes from Timberland

Pretty, very stylish and cute! This is what I call, a fake "spontaneous" look. Very casual, but perfectly combined... Beautiful Diesel Shopper bad, super confi jumper and lovely hat! The white jeans are something people don't use that much in winter, we tend to relate it with the summer, truth is that with beige it's always a good call in winter!

Good autumn look...

Cat Woman with Touch of Pink


Jumper, leggins and scarf from Topshop.
Boots from Carvela, Kurt Geiger
Bag from Balenciaga.

I tend to repeat the items I choose, to show as many possibilities as I can think of the same shoes/ bag with different garments.
This is also inspired in the popular London "Goth" Look, only maybe sweeter, because of the colour Pink and kitty scarf!

It's a cool outfit, sexy, and you can see it's been thought through!

xx

Very London in Black


Sweater, scarf and leggins from Topshop
Boots from Carvela, Kurt Geiger
Bag from Loewe

This look is very very Londoner... It's been very popular amongst celebrities. A touch of "goth" in it, that is why it's important to combine it with some colourful accessories. Black is very flattering in general, we only need to be careful not to look like we're ready to go to a funeral! and always keep it hot1

Cool and Sophisticated City Outfit

Top from Topshop.
Jeans from Levis
Shoes from Kurt Geiger
Blazer from Zara
Falabella bag from Stella Mccartney

For the most Sophisticated but casual look. This is a brilliant outfit that perfectly combines the two.
The shoes are extraordinary, original and cute, that combined with jeans, and light creamy colours will blend perfectly well with a more elegant style... Fashionable and elegant!
Falabella bag, beautiful, like all Stella's bags... It gives it a superb touch of city girl!

As you can see, I always choose to invest more in the accessories than the clothes... I truly believe that the shoes and bag will always be the key of the whole look!

xx


Marine City Look


Cardigan: Topshop
Blazer: Ralph Lauren
Jeans: Levis
Shoes: Pretty Ballerinas
Bag: Loewe

Classic. The best word to describe this outfit is classic. Navy and red have always combined amazingly well. As for underneath this original Topshop cardigan, I would wear a white T-Shirt.
The most expensive item of this outfit is the bag, it doesn't need to be Loewe, not everyone can afford it! (including myself...) But any red hand bag would go.

Occasion to wear it? Lunch with friends, work casual meeting...
You will look extremely chic!! It has a bit of a Parisien Look!

xx

Coffee with your Ex Look



Mulberry Bag
Timberland Boots
Allsaints Dress
Zara Trench Coat

"I am sooo over you" And that is why, if the next time you're meeting your ex you're wearing this, he will be regretting (big time) that you are no longer his girlfriend.

Let's analyse this... I mean... WOW:

The boots: SEXY
The dress: PRETTY
The coat: SOPHISTICATED
The Bag: FASHIONABLE

Do your hair, I would wear it down, but if you have it very long, a big pony tail may look great as well... A bit of make up, dark eyes but not too much anywhere else, perfume and... What else? Oh yes... You are running late, the stores may be shut by now... :)

Stylish City Casual


Mulberry Alexa Bag
Timberland Boots
Allsaints jumper dress

This is a great winter look. Depending on the weather, you can add scarf, high socks or gloves! It could all be... It seems simple, but it's a great combination, and a safe bet... With friends, boyfriend or family! You will still look nice...

xx

Casual Chic Fall/ Winter


Balenciaga Bag
Timberland Boots
Jack Wills Sweater and Blazer
Levis Jeans

Can we get any better? Levis Jeans (A classic), Jack Wills fabulously British Blazer, Personified Pink Timberlands to be different from everyone else's AND, finally... A BALENCIAGA... What an unbelievable range of bags... Truly a piece of art...

This outfit is casual, with a touch of smart thanks to our Blazer and beautiful bag, fashionable and unique!! Definitely a good bet for any "spontaneous" meeting...

xx


London Vintage



Mulberry Bag
Jack Wills Cardigan
Kurt Geiger's Boots
Jack Wills Dress

This is one of my very favourite looks for this season!! It is very London... Casual, cute, trendy...
Wedged Chelsea Boots it's a great idea, the dress is very girlie, lovely colour for the winter and the jacket just so warm and nice for the winter!

xx

The Graduate Look


Blazer: Ralph Lauren
Burgundy Mulberry Bag
FCUK Dress
Tods Shoes

Mulberry Bags are top rated today, super popular in England, particularly in London were they have been booming for the last couple of years!
This look is very smart and correct, yet, not too formal thanks to the knitted dress that makes the whole outfit more "casual" or wearable even for daytime.

xx

Smart Casual Look


Mulberry Bag
Shoes from Tods
Jack Wills Blazer
Levis Jeans

Fantastic Look for the city... For a PR Job or related, good choice for a Friday or meeting new clients...
Wear it with a white or cream top, I would go for a basic white T-shirt, could be a shirt if you want the outfit to be more elegant!
