Read More3 MUST HAVE shoes for the new season!
Autumn/winter ’12 brought with it a sumptuous collection of shoes, many of which steered clear of the ‘high fashion’ (read: unwearable) label, and quickly became our new season must-haves as we saw them stride along the catwalks back in February. Sexed-up platform Mary Janes; loafers ranging from patent to pretty heavily studded and trusty ankle boots with off kilter detailing all caught our eye and here’s how you should be shopping for them this season. If you’re after a season-appropriate shoedrobe but always run back to ‘safety net’ designs because you can’t bear to splash the cash on one wear ‘It’ designs, check out our three key new season shoe picks! The Ankle Boot Where: Burberry Prorsum, Acne, Mulberry Why: The ankle boot is a trusty winter staple, and for the new season it’s been sexed up with various embellishments. Perfect for pairing with a pencil skirt and soft knit for work or equally stylish worn with leather trousers and a slouchy t-shirt for off-duty cool; we love the tough luxe feel the silver chain detailing brings to these McQ brogued boots. What: McQ Brogued Boot, £425, available at Kurt Geiger The Season-hopping Slipper Where: Emporio Armani, Carven, 3.1 Phillip Lim Why: The slipper isn’t a slippery trend (pun intended), in fact it’s here to stay for good as a wardrobe staple we have all come to love (especially our feet!). If you’re looking for an alternative to the now common round toe slipper, opt for a simple pointed version with standout detail. What: MJ Navy Gem Slippers, £32, available at Topshop The Brocade Party Heel Where: Dolce & Gabbana, Jason Wu, Oscar de la Renta Why: Heavy, opulent brocade is a new season favourite and spread from the clothes onto footwear for autumn/winter ’12. Metallic accents are perfect for livening up a […]
Read MoreOn-Trend Shoes Can Be Comfortable Too!
It’s so easy to be lured in by beautiful shoes. Often they’re so painful we wear them once or twice and then buy some more. And so the cycle continues! But isn’t it about time we started looking for on-trend shoes that are actually comfortable, or at least shoes that fit? To get the perfect fitting women’s shoes we need to start measuring our feet. The one size fits all width is becoming a thing of the past, with a number of high street stores and online retailers selling stylish shoes in various widths. For a bit of inspiration here’s a quick look at the latest trends: Wedges The ultimate spring/summer shoes are wedges – sky high, platforms, even flatforms. Any colour goes but look out for on-trend blues, from ice blue to navy and cobalt, for a nautical feel. Or try opulent metallic for a more versatile choice, in gold, silver or pewter. Embellished Flats Either pumps, sandals or open toed, these wardrobe staples look great paired with skinny jeans and a casual tee. Or for smarter days wear with a pencil skirt and on-trend peplum top. Shoe boots With the disappointing British weather shoe boots have stuck around this summer. Perfect worn with anything from a party dress to office wear, they’re a must-have trans-seasonal shoe. Stay classic with black suede or for something a bit more eye-catching opt for animal print.
Read MoreDiane Kruger and Dianna Agron sport contrasting looks at Louis Vuitton party
Blonde beauties Diane Kruger and Dianna Agron both attended a fab Louis Vuitton party at New York’s Whitney museum last night to celebrate the brand’s collaboration with Yayoi Kusama. We thought all of the guests would embrace the loud theme of the Louis Vuitton for Yayoi Kusama collection, but Diane Kruger proved that even the most minimal of outfits can hold its own in a room full of bold and colourful decor and guests. Diane once again showcased her style credentials as she wore a sheer (but not in the trashy way, thank you) maxi skirt paired with a gorgeous brown, white and blue kimono jacket. Her up-do and gold earrings complemented the rest of her look perfectly – top marks to Diane, as usual! Glee’s Dianna Agron also ranked highly, as she really turned on the wow-factor in an embellished, printed blue, black and brown dress. Although she wore plain shoes and minimal jewellery, Dianna made up for it with her ultra-glam make-up and expertly tousled hair. She definitely embraced the theme of the collection and occasion! Both blonde bombshells looked divine at the event, but whose look do you prefer? [poll id=”357″] [Images]

Read MoreKelly Osbourne’s pretty at the Oscars party
Elton John’s post-Oscar party always brings the cream of the fashion crop out to play (except for Katie Price, why on earth was she there?) so even the stars who weren’t invited to the ceremony still get to excel in the style stakes. Topping our best dressed list this year? Kelly Osbourne – again. Although she originally wanted to wear Badgeley Mischka, we think she made the right choice in settling for this grey Tony Ward dress instead. The cap sleeves and satin sash flattered her flawless hourglass figure whilst the matching accessories finished the outfit off perfectly – and her Sixties bouffant hair and hot pink lipstick made her look like a true Hollywood starlet. That said, we’d love to take a peek under that floor-skimming hem to catch a look at her feet – we bet she’s got some killer shoes under there. All in all, it’s another great look from Ms. Osbourne for us, but do you like her lady-like look? Let us know your thoughts below. [poll id=”45″]

Read MoreKeeping Warm with Winter Boots
[no skim] It’s going to be a cold winter in the UK this year, and with the coming party season it’s easy to forget that as beautiful as those sparkly party shoes might be, they’re not going to keep you warm on a frosty evening out on the town! Thankfully, however, fashion designers are aware of our predicament, and even on the high street there are a range of stylish options to keep your feet from getting cold, so you can at least make your way around on a night out! Throughout 2012, fashion weeks and catwalks were buzzing with the latest boot trends, inspired no doubt by the increasingly colder temperatures and a return to the Heritage-inspired style that favours traditional English winter wear. Of particular note were the quality leather riding boots currently favoured by Ralph Lauren, which you can match with a tweed coat or Burberry scarf to complete the look. For a high-street alternative, Clarks’ range of women’s shoes include some great options inspired by country living. Their GORE-TEX range, which uses special materials that are waterproof while still allowing your feet to breathe, is particularly welcome in the wet winter months! Extra-high boots have also made a big impression this year, with top designers like Versus and Roland Mouret sending thigh-hugging leather boots down the runway in colours to match the rest of the outfit. This over-the-knee style brings a real boldness to an outfit – although a pair of warm leggings in the same colour will have a similar, more subtle effect for a softer look. Wear with a dress that ends just above the knee, or create a more daring ensemble by leaving a visible gap between the boot top and the hemline. Finally, ankle-boots are as popular as they ever have been. […]

Read MoreInterview with Shoe Designer of the Year Rupert Sanderson
As a fellow blogger, we at MFL were delighted that ELLE’s Accessory Designer of the Year Rupert Sanderson took time out of his hectic schedule to talk to us (between designing shoes for Karl Lagerfeld and blogging for Vogue no less). The London-based shoe designer and chairperson of Fashion Fringe Shoes 2008 has been crazy about footwear since his early teens and after studying shoe design at the world-renowned Cordwainers College, honed his skills working with Sergio Rossi and Bruno Magli in Italy. Rupert has since taken his brand on a journey and en route has gathered a dedicated following, enlisting celebrity disciples such as Kate Moss, not to mention two stores in London and a portfolio of high profile stockists around the world. Every style savvy girl knows to head straight to Rupert Sanderson for gorgeous shoes that blend traditional Italian craftsmanship with cool, individual style. And a fact you may not have known: To compliment his obsessive passion with the Italian craft of shoe-making, every pair of Rupert Sanderson shoes is named after a Daffodil. How very British… Who is the Rupert Sanderson woman? Confident and clever, she is someone who has the confidence to shop outside the usual brand because in her daily life she makes decisions based on her own independence of mind. A woman of some substance who relishes the sex appeal of a great shoe.

During this past year footwear has been revolutionised, whether it was the reviving of the platform, stacked wedges, or the stylized plimsoll, it has very much been the year of the shoe. But as ever, it’s now time for a twist, and with this season has come a new foot-wear related fad. Detail and colour! Your shoes are to make a statement this season, and collections from Firetrap and Keds are super funky and great for casual pumps and flats. These patent leather platforms from BCB are great for a more extravagant approach to heels and party shoes, $113.95, available from Zappos.com
Read MoreEverything You Need To Know About Styling Baggy Jeans!
Alright, let’s talk about baggy jeans! They’re making a serious comeback, and honestly, it’s about time. Who doesn’t want to feel comfy and chic at the same time? Gone are the days of always squeezing into tight skinny jeans—now, it’s all about that relaxed vibe. There’s something so freeing about baggy jeans. And they’re perfect for just about any occasion, from brunch with the girls to a laid-back date night. Plus, they’re super versatile, so you can dress them up or down with ease. Choosing the right fit baggy jeans 1. Know Your Rise First things first: Decide on the rise. High-rise baggy jeans? Super flattering. They cinch in at the waist, giving you that hourglass vibe even in a loose fit. If you love a classic, vintage look, a high-rise baggy jean is for you. Mid-rise is also a solid choice if you want a more relaxed, ‘90s feel. Low-rise? Risky but totally retro if you can pull it off! Consider your torso length, too. High-rise jeans can make a shorter torso look longer, and a low-rise style might balance out a longer one. So, figure out what works best for your body! SHOP THE LOOK 2. Check the Cut: Relaxed or Super-Baggy? Baggy jeans come in a range of fits, from just a bit roomy to full-on oversized. Ask yourself: how loose do you want to go? Relaxed fit is a bit more subtle; you’ll get a slight drape without the jeans looking overwhelmingly large. Super-baggy jeans, on the other hand, make a statement! Think: ‘90s hip-hop or current street style chic. Experiment! Try on a few pairs to see if you prefer a more laid-back drape or something that’s very obviously oversized. Go with what makes you feel amazing! 3. Length Matters—A Lot Length is a game […]
Read MoreHow To Style A Sequin Dress Effortlessly!
There’s no better time to embrace the dazzling allure of a sequin dress! Whether you’re attending a glamorous New Year’s Eve party or a festive work event, mastering the art of styling these sparkly showstoppers can transform you into the belle of any ball. The key to pulling off sequins is understanding that they’re not just for special occasions anymore – with the right styling, you can make sequins work for various events and even some casual settings. How to style a sequin dress 1. Choose the Right Silhouette for Your Style When buying a sequin dress, think about your comfort level and personal style first. The beauty of sequin dresses lies in their versatility – from body-hugging mermaid styles to relaxed shift dresses. For a more conservative approach, try a long-sleeved mini dress that balances coverage with sparkle. If you’re feeling bold, a plunging neckline or backless design can create show-stopping drama. Consider your body type too. A-line sequin dresses flatter most figures, while column dresses work beautifully for taller frames. Empire waists can create lovely proportion for shorter torsos, and wrap styles in sequins can define your waist beautifully. 2. Keep accessories subtle, not overpowering Your dress is already making a statement, so keep your accessories minimal and sophisticated. A pair of classic stilettos in metallic or black can elongate your legs while complementing the sparkle. For jewelry, opt for delicate pieces that won’t compete with your dress – perhaps a pair of simple diamond studs or a thin bracelet. When it comes to bags, size matters – a small clutch in a solid color provides the perfect finishing touch without overwhelming your look. If you’re wearing a long sequin gown, a sleek envelope clutch that won’t interfere with the dress’s line is ideal. For shorter styles, you […]
Read MoreHere’s Why Closing a Chapter in Your Life is the Key to Moving Forward
Life is full of chapters. Some are exciting, some are challenging, and some… well, they just plain SUCK. But, no matter how good or bad a chapter might be, there comes a time when we need to close it and move on. And you know what? That’s EXACTLY what we’re going to talk about today! I’ve been there, done that, and bought the t-shirt when it comes to holding onto things for way too long. Trust me, I know how hard it can be to let go. But I’ve learned some valuable lessons along the way, and I’m excited to share them with you! Why Closing Chapters Matters (Like, A LOT) Closure gives you clarity: When you close a chapter, you get a bird’s eye view of your life. Suddenly, things that were fuzzy start to come into focus. It frees up mental space: Holding onto old stuff is like having 50 tabs open in your browser. Closing chapters is like hitting that “close all” button. Ahhhh… sweet relief! New opportunities can finally enter: You can’t grab onto new opportunities if your hands are full of old baggage. Let. That. Stuff. GO! The Emotional Rollercoaster of Closing Chapters A few years back, I was in a job that looked great on paper but was slowly crushing my soul. I knew I needed to leave, but the thought of closing that chapter terrified me. What if I couldn’t find another job? What if I was making a huge mistake? Sound familiar? Here’s what I learned about the emotional journey of closing chapters: 1. Fear is Normal (But Don’t Let It Drive) It’s totally okay to be scared. Heck, I was TERRIFIED. But here’s the thing – fear is just a backseat driver. It might yell directions, but you don’t have to […]
Read MoreYour Guide to Choosing the Perfect Formal Wedding Guest Dress
Are you stressing about what to wear to that fancy wedding you’ve been invited to? Don’t worry! We’ve got you covered. Whether you’re attending a black-tie event or a less formal celebration, these tips will help you pick out the perfect dress! 1. Know the dress code Before you start shopping, it’s super important to know what kind of wedding you’re going to. Is it a black-tie affair or a casual beach celebration? The invitation should give you a clue. If you’re not sure, don’t be afraid to ask the bride or groom! Understanding the dress code is crucial because it sets the tone for your entire outfit. A black-tie event, for instance, calls for a formal gown, while a casual beach wedding might allow for a more relaxed sundress. By adhering to the dress code, you show respect for the couple and their vision for their special day. It also ensures that you’ll feel comfortable and appropriately dressed among the other guests. If the invitation doesn’t specify a dress code, you can often get clues from the time of day and venue. Evening weddings tend to be more formal, while daytime events are usually more casual. A church wedding might require more conservative attire, while an outdoor garden party could allow for brighter colors and patterns. When in doubt, it’s always better to err on the side of caution and choose from a selection of formal dresses to make sure you’re not underdressed. Different types of wedding dress codes: 2. Consider the venue and season Where and when the wedding is taking place can make a big difference in what you should wear.

Read MoreA Mens Guide To Monochromatic Outfits
Monochromatic outfits are surging in popularity. Many people think the concept means limiting your clothing to gray, white or black, but it’s really about using any single consistent color throughout your ensemble. Michelle Obama made a notable monochromatic fashion statement at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, and Jake Gyllenhaal has been known to follow this style at some awards shows. Queen Elizabeth II was probably the most prominent example, as she wore color-consistent outfits throughout her seven-decade reign, down to hats and umbrella trims. Dressing this way is a growing trend in men’s outerwear for several reasons. Many men find it calming and psychologically beneficial. At the very least, it can make it easier and quicker to choose the clothes you’re going to wear each day. What Are Monochromatic Outfits? While monochromatic outfits might be a modern trend, the roots of the word monochrome go all the way back to ancient Greece. The Greek word “monokhr?matos” means “of a single color.” The “of” part is crucial because monochromatic outfits derive from one source color, but the elements aren’t always the same. Different elements of your outfit might be various shades or tints. The creativity comes in subtle details, such as drapery, patterns and fit. One popular misconception about monochromatic dressing is that everything needs to be solid. You can dress that way if you want, but incorporating different textures and patterns into your various garments brings a more sophisticated vibe to your look. Monochromatic Outfit Ideas With the right clothes, you can pull off a monochromatic look in any color. However, if you’re just starting off, you might try taking a minimalist route with muted colors. These include black and gray, but you can also venture safely into white, navy and beige. The Man in Black Going all black is a […]

So to help you get it right, we’ve put together some top tips on how to plan a summer BBQ bash that your guests will love!

While we all love the idea of a color-coordinated capsule closet that follows the perfect palette with no compromise, we all love colors outside of our chosen palette and we should be able to easily embrace them!

Are you ready for bold colors, cute sandals, and sky-high platforms? It’s time to trade in those heavy winter boots for something light, fun, and colorful this spring. So let’s dive in and see what’s trending this season. Dopamine dressing – a new trend only for the brave It goes without saying that black is a classy color with which you simply can not go wrong. Usually, whatever you are wearing, black shoes – the right style of course – will go with it. However, a new trend that is gaining mainstream popularity is the one called ‘dopamine dressing’. As the name suggests, it’s exciting, bold, and takes some guts to pull off. In a nutshell, it refers to colorful footwear (from red and orange to cooler hues, like green and steel blue) that serves to uniquely complement your outfit and accessories. In other words, it brings out the colors you’re wearing – and, needless to say, draws attention. An example would be pairing a neon outfit with mauve pumps.

Read MoreCapsule Wardrobes for Kids
Are you tired of washing huge piles of clothing in an endless cycle? At the same time, you can’t find clothing items for your kid that match properly – it might be time to consider a capsule wardrobe. Capsule wardrobes aren’t only for adults; they are also perfect for your children. Planned correctly, a capsule wardrobe reduces the piles of washing you need to take care of; although they will still require frequent washing, you will save energy overall. Additionally, you don’t have any worries about what your kid will wear to the party, the playground, or the shops. Use a Checklist One of the challenges of creating an effective capsule wardrobe – whether it’s for adults or kids – is getting the right balance of clothing items. This doesn’t happen by accident; in fact, you need to keep a checklist of basic clothing types you need so that everything is covered in the capsule. The best time to create a capsule wardrobe for kids is every three months when the seasons change; this gives you a chance to reflect on what they have and what they might need going forward. Another great time to create your list is when your kids outgrow the clothes they have. Identify Some Brands Chances are you have some clothing brands that you swear by and always update your wardrobe with their latest seasonal offerings. When it comes to boys pyjamas and other kids’ clothing, going with brands is an even better idea because they have standardized sizes. Kid’s brands are usually fairly consistent when it comes to sizes, colors, textures, and shapes. Not only that, when you buy kid’s clothes from a brand, it’s easier to mix and match the clothing items due to brand consistency. This makes the process of creating a […]
