Get cozy with DKNY

There are things in your wardrobe that every woman should own. Like LBD, good pair of jeans, well cut blazer and so on. I've recently discovered something that I'm definitely adding to that list.
A cozy! Don't know what it is? It's a kind of wrap cardigan that can be worn tons of different ways. See the video below to give you more ideas and ways to wear it. It comes in different fabrics and colours and seems so perfect for English weather. An extra layer is always needed and when it's as practical as this one there really is no doubt it's a must have.
Hooked? Thank @DKNY PR girl for introducing it. She posted this video on DKNY tumblr and after watching it, I decided I really needed one. Her tumblr and twitter account (@dkny) are both must follow for anyone working in fashion or trying to break into the industry. She's a well placed insider who's sharing the info. I'm very honoured to be followed back by her on twitter. So if you haven't done so yet, check out her blog and her tweets.
Have a stylish day.

Dreaming of... Balmain diffusion line

Fashion is so exciting. You can never be bored or really stay ahead of the game as there is always so much happening. Fashion weeks twice a year, resort and pre-fall collections in between, Fashion's Night Out, upcoming designer collaborations.. The list goes on. One of the things I'm really looking forward to, is for the Balmain diffusion line to come out. We have to wait until December for this to happen, but there's no harm in having a sneak peak of what to expect. Balmain is known for great pants and structured jackets and more. They've been setting trends for quite a few seasons and judging by these pictures, I expect none less from the cheaper line.
The good news is, the prices will start at about £100, the bad news is, it won't be designed by Oliver Rousteing, Christophe Decarnin's successor (who resigned earlier this year). The French house says it will still have the same rock essence but will be more casual and relaxed. Whatever that means, I can't wait to see the whole collection and of course buy few pieces.

Stylish homes - dress up your Iphone/Ipad

(The regular feature is back!) Let's face it. To be without modern technology these days is unthinkable. I can't imagine my life without iPhone any more (whatever we did before them!) and I finally gave in to iPad too and getting it this week. In the business of blogging, and any other business for that matter, you have to keep up with what's going on and these gadgets are simply essential. Good news is that the designers want us to remain stylish in every aspect of our lives, therefore there has been a boom in accessories for technology. The selection is amazing and you can really match it to your wardrobe. It won't surprise you that I bought a pink croc leather iPhone cover by Mulberry (it's sold out now!) and I'm already planning how I'm going to dress up my IPad.
Here's a little selection of covers for both iPad and iPhone and also couple for Blackberry (not to make them feel left out).
You can buy all the following at net-a-porter.com including some Mulberry ones, and the rest at Mulberry.com. So which is your favourite? It's hard to pick..
Have a stylish day.

Jewelled Wednesday by Michael Kors

It is no secret that I am a big fan of Michael Kors. I treated myself with his watch for my 30th birthday this year and I own some of his clothes and handbags too (definitely getting more). I'll be more than happy to add his jewelry as well, especially after seeing these images. The collection features statement gold neck and wrist cuffs, chain bracelets, crystal drop earrings and leopard print bangles and more, with prices starting from about £60. Good news! Shop at Michaelkors.com.

Product I can't live without

I've discovered another product that's already made a massive change to my life (hair). From using straightening irons and colouring my hair (don't we all) my hair is quite damaged and very dry. I always use hydrating masks and leave in conditioners but the one I was using has been discontinued. Luckily my stylist at Tony&Guy has recommended Elixir K Ultime by Kerastase and I'm hooked already. Not only it gives my hair amazing texture, it tames it and smells divine too! I can see a big difference after I use it. You can put it into both wet and dry hair and it's a simple way how to refresh it. Can you tell how much I love it?

Michaela Kocianova for Vogue Italia

I'm very excited to announce that I'll be a regular blogger for Czech Elle. Those who follow me on twitter probably know about this already, but I wanted to share this news with you here as well. I'll post the link when it's all ready.
To celebrate I'm bringing you another editorial featuring Czech model, this time gorgeous Michaela Kocianova by Greg Kadel for Vogue Italia. Doesn't she look stunning! I promise to show you some editorials from Elle CZ soon as well - it only seems appropriate. I'm going to Prague soon some I'll stock up on Czech magazines. It's my pre fashion week trip to relax with the family and get pampered for a fraction of UK prices. Can't wait!

Vintage Sunday by Guy Bourdin

Both polka dots and the sixties are big next season. Maybe the designers got their inspiration from this picture of Jane Shrimpton by Guy Bourdin from April 1966. I wouldn't blame them. Everything about it is great. What do you think. Hope you're enjoying your (vintage) Sunday.
