Absolutely fallen in love with the beautiful, intricate and dreamful work of David Downton. I have to admit I have never heard or seen his designs previously, but recently whilst searching fashion illustrations I uncovered the fine pieces. </div>

Blue is the mood for Spring Summer 2014, according to beauty insiders and artists who patented the shade on some of the most famous catwalks this year. The palette included shades of aqua, azure, sapphire and sky, re-inventing the colour from the eighties. </div>

You can layer different flowers, use on each nail or just simply to accent fingers. If you enjoy being creative and have plenty of time then go for it.</div>

The kits will be available from this Spring, priced at £18.00 each. </div>

<br />
Nudie are a Swedish company based in Gothenberg and over the past 15 years have really grown in popularity, across Europe, America and Australia. I came across this brand whilst on my placement year and was interested by their simple, sustainable designs and rich Swedish culture. It was then that I decided to base my Final Major project around Nudie.<br />
<br />
Nudie are stocked within independent stores across the UK in around 135 shops..it was my interest in the brand that made me wonder if they could make the move to the UK retail market with a standalone store. Within the project I produced a marketing report to discover whether the move would be a success and also created marketing material for the current season along with the store design.<br />
The following images are what I produced...hope you like!! x<br />

A relatively new blog, online since March 2010 and written by Berlin-based editor Lena Brombacher whose interest in sophisticated perfumery transcends in fashion and major brands by giving an insight into some of the best niche perfumes on the market. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529384684325532290" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 246px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmzYwEPu624KZAqcdxy34f6r7l8Ou12T64dnriWGXzGvWRJRFiXNIPkvNW_1iQmZjP2Fi0CB0lp3xz_LuDlDQ5C3G1nM4f4JBFK-HNa8Ka9Yj6jVwHgbrHfv730LqeIDVaVyKrpM0o1kE/s320/fragranze.jpg" border="0" />"A lot of big brands try to sell their products as the most amazing stuff ever, I try everything on the market but I don't write about the mainstream". <div>Brombacher explains that she has a hyper-sensitive nose- I smell everything perfume, flowers, food, people, apartments, streets, cities....I smell if a person is already in the office or smell fire before anyone else does. Lena's friends once told her that it is impossible to write about smell, but there are many perfume blogs and people love to communicate and get inspired. What Lena tries to do is create an image of the fragrance. </div><div>Recently Olfactorialist.com was the official media partner of the famous perfume fair Pitti fragranze. </div></div>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06042718927199626201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7829176354502415941.post-48800962928429460832010-10-18T06:24:00.000-07:002010-10-18T06:41:34.845-07:00Berry Beautiful<div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEOIK7dnlnNBBx2sKfAQ6mVz3V8A8gO3YP-8ymkdHN6ISNnXhySF1UM1fBsLi54pm8-70Qx6f52QuPeWUShukC4RYvDCYCVhK3xJyNKnS1EwKjctP_LEmXtH2mdD8ZbKgDerkm6hKUaPs/s1600/purple+lipstick.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529378224680605218" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEOIK7dnlnNBBx2sKfAQ6mVz3V8A8gO3YP-8ymkdHN6ISNnXhySF1UM1fBsLi54pm8-70Qx6f52QuPeWUShukC4RYvDCYCVhK3xJyNKnS1EwKjctP_LEmXtH2mdD8ZbKgDerkm6hKUaPs/s320/purple+lipstick.jpg" border="0" /></a> </div><div><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529378221749033266" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 214px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTSxOJm_n6tSZx5uA3BjTvLA87b6R374aKqayHAvWyWQQfjDSlS3Egxa1f4SHOvzgzc_va0ZYwKE8FUQM5Exsgo_2Zq0jVkbzXTUCaOJ-siIfUybfSWd_9rpSkPLN_BLpmrQhwK3SpNkU/s320/purple+lips.jpg" border="0" />Berry shades seem to be the favourite for Autumn/Winter lips, from crimson to grape tones.

Six years ago they found their home in the Clinque Terra region and now have a non-stop flow of U.S visitors enjoying the good food, good wine and the beach! <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521984179060861106" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA_veO6BW9rjU4N-EEK-K6QJQMT6wguYIgP5tOrvdenkvk6wQItXOzPQdWd7jp2L3HcR86rb9BcLDEfas0HyQVktKS2ELqNzOzL0F_UliXezkq8dVCowZaQovT1UhQG1Ic5l-Q4iieFhU/s320/italy+2.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521984173899975186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 214px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDbMOZnSRZze_7AMqEk-UWPqzKufUL_QEfY3cyqWDQzw4blKrmZkwfZeFO-5uROyej5rAHiuufbR5HS-a8R8LzocbQrj4_ILcaFD-MsumWeGFCeaKg-JgB5FT7AjFbQ3SrRF4RqTyGwE0/s320/italy.jpg" border="0" /> <div><div><div>Annette is an amazing stylist and has created a beautiful home for her family which is a modern take on a beach house with plenty of nautical stripes with hints of Italian colour. </div></div></div>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06042718927199626201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7829176354502415941.post-74103354410743683462010-09-28T07:13:00.000-07:002010-09-28T08:11:23.455-07:00Swarovski<div><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0iw0K4MQFOYf7JcM4Dj2LMYwhbcvdXR9Lp2293hx9wfPukL6XZH4QnLbPM-Xa_r9r3Ume2NpSRZmAgsQBlDu2sKQyQtdhq-HAXvUp72u7Px4omRD1PFDurp3ZAjYMJi48wQkHtzuFHzA/s1600/dancing+2.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521981339564735058" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 226px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0iw0K4MQFOYf7JcM4Dj2LMYwhbcvdXR9Lp2293hx9wfPukL6XZH4QnLbPM-Xa_r9r3Ume2NpSRZmAgsQBlDu2sKQyQtdhq-HAXvUp72u7Px4omRD1PFDurp3ZAjYMJi48wQkHtzuFHzA/s320/dancing+2.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga3JJrDTEeaC4bTHWGAWtoI7fHoug4H-sw0HWGcDkYycvYeCyzs-exTTCYgCYzEykjLePVeE_eDtJJVWh4bT6pjmaOGltqDSbY1lYz39A0WRJxwUmSiKtabBKNpQGOwgZByj2nlnaYNzE/s1600/dancing.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521981336855157186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEga3JJrDTEeaC4bTHWGAWtoI7fHoug4H-sw0HWGcDkYycvYeCyzs-exTTCYgCYzEykjLePVeE_eDtJJVWh4bT6pjmaOGltqDSbY1lYz39A0WRJxwUmSiKtabBKNpQGOwgZByj2nlnaYNzE/s320/dancing.jpg" border="0" /></a> In the world of jewellery Swarovski are a luxury brand just like that of Tiffany or Harry Winston, but in recent years they seem to have faded a little, perhaps their budgets have reduced just like the rest of us. However, Swarovski are a brand that cater for dance couture and through using this type of sport they are making themselves into one of the biggest brands in the world, exporting to Europe, America and China. Ballroom and Latin American dancing is one of the biggest sports in the world and it's ever growing through documentaries and reality TV series's, consumers are receiving more knowledge about dance than ever before.<br /><br /><div>Chrisanne is the world's leader in ballroom and latin couture, which established in 1986 and constantly sets the benchmarks in the world of dance fashion. Swarovski are part of this world providing gems, which are known as<em> stones</em> to dancers, dress makers, suppliers and officials. These stones are what creates the finishing touches to the ballgowns, similarly to the last detail on a Vivienne Westwood outfit. </div><br /><div>Other brands also appear to have focused on the swarovski stone idea, as this summer Karen Millen featured peep toe shoes covered in the stones using a pale pink satin heel with crystal AB stones, they were very glam and very popular, showing that this type of detail is translating from dancewear to retail. I am sure we will see more of this trend. <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521981741328643362" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 151px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhv5erQ7EKXYHpJF_bG5XFodQOLjENvHXsEJV-bDelliKyQEpCdMCAeZKn-FgW4IOw6SwAIm9AoOfn2bRgvJz1_FYQbJpUNMdqM6kpaxRJ6Gg6AbRaYmS9Rw3TYxFaARecmXHBoZGLZ_uw/s320/karen-millen-heels.jpg" border="0" /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5521981742068262162" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 236px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgUj-2Vq5VZiG9dcS9MGbz91kvskEugoYADaYBxIsbHQOgdC9x6oD5gbT1eF0t1Cq4NeRSWFoQ3BkZkaKsujhwZvtggbQ8MSkgUQMlMAAlGrCR2OJ8AW-mhPPMe4dWwIROCIVeost5332E/s320/converse+with+stones.jpg" border="0" /></div></div></div></div>Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06042718927199626201noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7829176354502415941.post-25372243331424162572010-09-28T06:52:00.000-07:002010-09-28T07:04:38.220-07:00Jil Sander-MFWIt was quite a beautiful and exciting lesson in colour. Raf Simons stole the show and took the neon trend to make it entirely his own using pink, orange, green, yellow and blue. Skirts were shown in mass fabric which were roughly gathered at the waist to fall to the floor over white tees to show them off in full glory. The colour was used then more subtly using parkas, raincoats and tailored trousers which were pared with court shoes revealing a dash of matching neon on the sole.<br />Bags of all colours were used in a combination of stripes:-bold horizontals on dresses, and big areas of matt colour on skirts and fitted trousers which was teamed with neon pink lipstick.Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06042718927199626201noreply@blogger.com0
