R.I.P Elizabeth Taylor - Fashion has lost another Icon...
























"I'm a survivor. I'm a living example of what people can go through and survive"
Elizabeth Taylor


Once again, we have to say goodbye to another Fashion Icon - The most glamourous of them all, Elizabeth Taylor. Elizabeth's love for life was evident in her style - her statement full hair, statement dresses and most importantly the 'DIAMONDS'!












Her stunning looks and her beautiful blue eyes banked her a career on tv and ensured she appeared on the cover of many fashion magazines and the best of all - vogue cover girl.
























Appeared in several fashion forward movies such as Cleopatra.

























The world will miss surely miss her - not forgetting her tireless work for charity as the headliner of Aids research! To the woman who understood how to make a statement, who taught us class and Glamour through the use of accesories, a woman's best friend.. 'Diamonds' R-I-P from all fashion lovers....

The 70's is back !! 5 Trouser styles you must own 2011!
























The 70's Palazzos is your biggest trend 2011. It's back bigger than ever as Palazzo's, cullottes, extreme wide leg, kick flares and bell bottoms - worn with shells tops, sleek blouses, camisole and the trade mark 70's wedge shoes completes your look.

Good time for the bottom heavy, pear shaped and hour glass body types. As wide leg balances out your bottom half and creates a classic silhouette. Definately your best look! Hour glass figure is most suited to band less pants, while those heavy around their stomach area can choose high waisted bands to tuck in excessive flesh. Super slim silhouettes should wear with caution or risk getting consumed by the excessive material.

As usual, our famous folks haven't held back on the 70's look as featured on Olivia Palermo, Fearne Cotton and January Jones. This look can transform to your casual Jeans, in this season prints(animal print), flowery, graphic, polka dots or neutrals (block colour) to dress down or up. Versatility!






















Palazzo's as featured on the Catwalk for spring/summer 2011- No limit on how big you can go!
















There is a trouser for every shape this season. Alexa Chung featured in this season tappered trousers look, this was all over the cat walk as featured below. This is a classic trend, in styles such as a the peg leg, hareem, capri, tappered, super skinny fit, slim straight trousers - so definately a style for every one - Choose the fabric to create your personal style from military, chinos(big trend 2011), chiffon's and printed/graphic trousers. Or add colours such as Fuchsia, orange or Royal as a base to create your rainbow trend of 2011.

Other styles such as our classic Bootcut, as worn by the Queen of trousers -Jennifer Aniston -should be our wardrobe staple in 2011. This suits every body type especially suited to work and go well with your work shoes.

The kick flair is another style making a big statement in our stores this 2011 as featured on Paris Hilton, - adds elegance and easily flatters any woman's curves. Would be a better option for a woman with a super slim figure than the super wide leg.

Finally this season wouldn't be complete without the military look in the form of the cargo combat pants. Several celebrities have been seen wearing these as a casual option as seen on Boutique owner Kim Kardashian.


































What ever you're planning -make space for these 5 styles this season - Remember every great wardrobe requires a fantastic base. Choose colours and fabrics that you could easily build on and ones that flatter your body shape. Your wardrobe don't have to be boring.
