Fashion Fix: Polka Dots

Soairse Ronan, Kristin Davis and Kirsten Dunst flaunt the latest style.




There has been so many new styles, deigns and trends in the last month with every fashion store launching their new Autumn/Winter collections, but one trend in particular has stood out for me.

I'm always making sure to stay on top of the top trends in the fashion industry, and trust me polka dots are back in! It's a design stylists have toyed with over the years, but somehow fashion designers have managed to make the pattern sexy!








Cheryl Cole was the first celeb to bring the style back into the main stream. The famous Geordie wore this white and black polka dot number at the Chicago auditions of the US X Factor, which turned out to be her last day as a judge.




It seemed a bit far out at the time. Cheryl was sporting a rather vintage 50's style. But now the world's top fashion designers have brought polka dots into the 21st century.







Kate Winslet turned heads in her partially see-through polka dot number. The Oscar-winning actress sported the look at the premier of her series Mildred Pierce and she looked fabulous.

This marked the start of the new sexy trend which had just been debuted at fashion shows around the world. There were a couple of different versions spotted on the catwalks. The looks below were the most popular.






Another quirky thing I am loving about the new Autumn/Winter style is that the design doesn't just have to be on dresses, skirts or jackets.

My new favourite version of the design is on tights! Patterned tights are getting huge at the moment. But since the style is mostly geared towards teenagers, tights with shapes and designs on them can be quite tacky.







But these would work for the more sophisticated woman. Pair this with a black pencil skirt and a crimson red shirt and you've got yourself a sexy, yet sophisticated outfit.

So where can we look for these high fashion designs on the high street?? Well first up you can get this amazing Kate Winslet style polka dot dress from ASOS.com.







You can get this for just €70.51

 The Lipsy dress sports a similar material to that of Kate's stunning number, while creating a unique look. The polka dot pattern is seen on the see-through material on the higher part of your hips and chest.

This dress is currently €70.51 on ASOS and would be perfect for those Christmas parties that are set to kick off soon.

Next up, if you are looking for a bargain and aren't too keen on the skin tight dresses, then this number from Awear will be perfect for you.






This is only €12 at the moment.




The top Irish fashion store is currently doing a 1/2 price sale, so you can grab this 50's inspired look for just €12!

This would be perfect for a wedding, or a sophisticated dinner. This is more similar to the Kristin Davis number (at the top of the page). The flowing material means that you won't be tugging at the dress all night or trying to suck in your stomach.

And at this price it would be crazy not to buy it. If you really want to go 50's retro then add a pair of white gloves, red lippy and a white shawl.

And like I said before you can mix and match with polka dots. If you are not interested in wearing a full blown dress with the design, you can buy these adorable pair of shoes.







Cheryl Cole wore a pair of polka dot shoes with her polka dot dress on the US XFactor (it was a bit too much) but I loved the shoes.

You can get these gorgeous light pink peep toes from Topshop, currently priced at £62.

Fashion Fix - Colourful Skinny Jeans

It is set to be the biggest trend of Autumn/Winter and already some of the top celebs have been flaunting bright coloured skinny jeans.

With BT2's recent launch of their new collections, it was clear that denim is back again this season but this time with a twist. With the success of the skinny jean and the denim jacket it's time for something new this season and this is it.

My favourite colour this season has to be red. And both BT2 and BT's Autumn/Winter collection are packed full of soft red dresses, deep red coats and bright red denims.





Jessica Biel has pulled out the look perfectly. Although this new trend can be worn on a night out, paired with back stilettos and a funky top, the bright coloured skinny jean is also perfect for day to day wear.

Here Jessica pairs the jeans with a baggy striped t-shirt and a man-sized hoody. This looks great for your body proportion. Not everybody can pull off the skinny jean look with a tight top because it's quite a low rise, but pair them with something flowy or baggy, add an oversized bag, and away you go!






Littlewoods skinnies


This is another colour I'm loving this season. These blue skinny jeans can be bought at Littlewoods Ireland and come from the rand Love Label. For just €39 you can snatch up these denims in this bright blue or a turquoise colour.

These are also higher raised then most normal skinnies so you can tuck in a nice white/grey shirt, add some gold accessories and a pair of heels and you're ready to go.






TopShop skinnies


There is also a wide range of colourful skinnies you can buy from everyone's favourite TopShop. My top pick from their are these gorgeous maroon coloured skinnies. Like I said red is really the colour this season, whether it's maroon, violet or chrimson these are the colours to wear ladies.

These jeans I'm in love with they have a very soft material and aren't too tight on the waist, which is always a good thing no matter what size you are.






ASOS Skinnies
Ok so I've established that red is the colour to go for this season, especially when it comes to skinnies, but I have to say Mustard comes in at a very close second.

I'm loving these ASOS skinny jeans, which you can whip up for just €44.87. Obviously with such a bright colour you need to look at pairing more natural tones, like white, grey or even black with these pants.

But as you can see for this picture you can style your outfit for a night on the tiles or go back to a Jessica Biel inspired casual look.






The White Door Skinnies


Another colour you can go for, if you don't want to go too bright is, the always safe, white. And the best place is The White Door in Dublin. They stock the amazing Hello Skinny Jeans collection, which are said to flatten your tummy, shape your butt and tighten your legs.

Any shape or size can fit into these, and they would look spectacular on a night out. But be careful these babies come in at €175 so you don't want to spill anything on them!

So there you have it, Red, Mustard and Blue are my top pics when it comes to skinnies, any tone of red at all is in this season so if you are looking to follow trends then do that.

PS!!!

One last thing, if you are stinking rich, I urge you to get these GUESS jeans for $98... I'm in love and it's a gorgeous shade of pink!

Fashion Fix - Kate Winslet

I've never made a secret of the fact that Kate Winslet is my favourite actress and person in the world, she is so kind, beautiful and down to earth, but now I love her even more for her style.


Snapped last night on the red carpet for her TV show Mildred Pierce, Kate looked amazing for someone who had just recently escaped from a fire at Virgin owner Richard Brandson's house.


Wearing short shorts and a blaiser, this mini tuxedo suit looked perfect on the British actress.With her hair slicked back and wearing barely any make-up she still looked ten times better than her co-star Evan Rachel Wood. And it's hard to believe that Kate is actually 35!!






She ticked all the right boxes again the night before at the premiere of her latest flick Carnage. Wearing a stunning Victoria Beckham designed dress the actress flaunted her slim body and toned legs.

She has such an amazing body for her age, and after three kids as well, Miss Red salutes you Kate!

Swit swoo!!

Fashion Fix - Jennifer Love Hewitt

 WOWZA!!

After struggling to control her weight over the last year since her big love split, Jennifer Love Hewitt showed off her curvy figure and her slim tummy.

Jennifer was snapped on the red carpet of her new movie Cafe. Wearing the coral Hervé Léger dress really showed off her slimmer body and curvy figure.

The French designer is known for creating incredibly tight bondage dresses, so you really have to have a good figure to pull off this look.

The 32-year-old flaunted her chocolate brown hair with a sharp fringe, and she looked like a lady in her 20's.

Fashion Fix - Are Big Pants Attractive?

Is this sexy??
Ok in all seriousness is it just me or is Beyonce just wearing granny-knickers here?

For some reason the trend of Bridget Jones' massive underwear has come onto the fashion scene in recent months and I just don't get it.

First Pixie Lott came on the scene with the style, and after spreading to Dianna Vickers, Miley Cyrus and Nicola Roberts, Beyonce is next to try it out.

Some of the pants have been cute, with bright sequence and colour like Rihanna sports, but this is just plain old ugly.






Rihanna loves the big pants trend.

With Beyonce's look, it looks like she had a pair of spanx on under her clothes and they just asked her to leave them on. Am I being too harsh?

Ladies Day At The RDS Horse Show

I had a fabulous day at the RDS Horse Show, the sunshine finally came out and with Blossom Hill sponsoring this year's show, there was no one left empty handed when it came to wine!

Of course it was Ladies Day so female fashionistas all over Ireland put on their best dresses in hopes of bagging at €10,000 holiday to California.

With over 300 applicants this year, Off The Rails star Brendan Courtney had a tough decision to make, alongside judge Sharon Corr.



Winner!!


But the overall winner was 23-year-old Yvette Byrne from Carlow. The rising fashion designer revealed that she will be setting up a fashion website soon, in hopes to sell some of her designs.

Fashion Fix - Maxi Skirts

I am absolutely loving this new trend.

I'm not a huge fan of maxi dresses but I really like the maxi skirts. Unfortunately I couldn't find that many skirts on online shops but I found these two in Mango.

The great thing about maxi skirts is that you can completely shape the outfit by adding a tiny belt, a chunky belt, or simply tucking in a shirt or string top. But as you can see from these two Mango dresses, the emphasis is always on the waist, and that alone shapes your body.



This is €69.95 from Mango

I normally try and find all my fashion fixes for under €20 but these are the only two I could find. Honestly I would have no problem paying €69.95 for the pink Mango maxi.

And if you have some cash to spare this gorgeous leopard print maxi skirt is an amazing purchase. Although it's quite pricey the material is long lasting and this print always comes back in fashion.



You can get this for €125 from Mango.

The great thing about this skirt is that you can wear this casually during the day or you can style it to work for a night out.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this new style xx

Savvy Shopaholic - Zara

It may not be looking like summer outside right now, but with the August and September annual heatwave on it's way it's time to do some serious dress shopping.

Whether you are looking to meet with friends on a summers day, or let your hair down on a mad night out, summer dresses fit every occasion because they are short and loose fitting.

This week I've chosen to go with Zara, I've always loved both the style and quality of their clothes, and their fittings are always right on the mark. Plus they have a great sale on right now.

Remember, as always, everything I pick out is under €20.




Firstly I went for a few day time looks. I'm in love with this Frilled Dress for just €9.99, **STAR BUY** as well as the fact that this is a complete steal, I love the style of the dress.

The frills at the top and a tiny belt in the middle, creates some great layers, hiding those lumps and bumps we all like to keep at bay. The strapless look and short length creates the perfect beach look, but you can pair this with accessories also.

White is always the perfect colour on a summer's day, it's about the only time we can get away with it, put on a natural light tan, add a small denim jacket or blazer, add some gold bangles and strappy sandals, and away you go!





Next up is another day-time strapless look. This is an amazing offer, as it's down from €79.95 to just €19.99. The fabric on this is gorgeous with a pleated skirt, loving this Grey dress.

Once again it's all about the accessories, this can be worn during the day time or night. Short denim jackets are perfect for creating the day-time look, add this hat , for just €5.99, to achieve the perfect casual summer style.



To create the night-time look, I would add some killer high-heels, gold or silver chunky jewellery and a dark black blazer paired with a large black clutch.





Continuing with the night-time styles, I fell in love with this Green Halter-neck short for only €12.99.

Green is really starting to make it's comeback this season, and emerald or mint is my top choice. Just this week Slum Dog Millionaire actress Freida Pinto wore a beautiful mint green long dress at the premiere of Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes.



Freida Pinto has brought back the trend.
But let's focus on this emerald green dress from Zara. I love this halterneck style and everyone can wear green. Whether you are a dark brunette, fair-haired blonde or fiery red-head, there are tonnes of ways to make this colour work with your hair and skin tone.

My favourite colour to match with green has to be gold, I think the two colours are really vibrant together. I'm emphasising big chunky bangles today. It's the best way to go with these summer looks.




Next up red has always been one of my favourite colours, and if you are planning a nice dinner or a cocktail night out I would suggest this beauty.

For just €12.99 you can get this from Knitted red dress Zara. It may seem quite plain at first glance but there is so much you can do with this dress.

First of all the gorgeous V-neck allows for a long-drop necklace. Think of a piece with a long chain and a large symbol, like a ball or a heart.

Add a black blazer to this look, and you've got yourself a smart, elegant outfit for a sophisticated night out.





Finally, you need to have some killer (and cheap) heels to add to any of these outfits if you are planning on hitting the tiles.

You can get these Strappy Sandal heels for just €14.99 from Zara. The strappy look is perfect for the summer time, as everyone's wearing sandals at the moment, so it gives your look a more casual vibe.

Fashion Fix - Mila Kunis At Russian Premiere

I'm absolutely loving this ballerina-styled outfit from Mila Kunis.

Throwing back to her time on the set of the Oscar-award-winning Black Swan, the stunning Mila looked every inch of a ballerina at the Russian premiere of Friends With Benefits.

Walking the red carpet in a beautifully sculpted feather white tulle dress with dazzling embellished shoulders and a plunging neckline, the actress looked perfect.

Mila walked the red carpet with her co-star and rumoured fling Justin Timberlake and the film's director Will Gluck.

The 27-year-old put beach waves in a loose bun and paired a girly silver-two-tiered-hairband with stunning white heels.

With her dark sallow skin and deep brown eyes, Mila looked absolutely gorgeous, and very dainty, unlike her normally strong and sexy style.

She looks like a little angel doesn't she?

Fashion Fix: Katy Perry Dazzles At Smuf Premiere

What an amazing body she has, pity about the hair.

Katy Perry showed off her perfect body and new blonde hair at the premiere of her very first movie The Smurfs.

The wife of Russell Brand looked every inch a smurf herself as she wore this sparkly tight white dress with a Smurf imprint.

She then paired bright blue shoes with smurf designed finger nails, specially made for her debut acting gig.

The 26-year-old singer voices the character of Smurfette, who was digitally created by CGI for the new movie.

Pamela Anderson Looks Smoking Hot In New Lingerie Campaign

Yes Pamela Anderson has added herself to the list of celebs who have endorsed their own lingerie line, except the Batwatch beauty is only selling sexy stockings!

The actress has colloaborated with Secrets in Lace. The star posed for her new stockings range called Pamela Couture, that are being sold for about $35 a piece, with five different options available.

Made of nylon, the stockings feature polka-dots, back seams for an old-fashioned effect and even a reinforced heel and toe for stiletto-lovers.





A spokesperson for her new brand said:

"This collaboration is the perfect match, as Pamela Anderson exudes sex appeal, and her stocking line is no exception. She knows how to play up her assets; this line exemplifies just that."
The Califronian blonde looks absolutely sensational at 44, although she may be highly airbrushed! The star still looks amazing as she models the range in a series of provocative poses, wearing sexy undies and Christian Louboutin heels.

Despite noticeabley aging (in real life) Pamela revealed that she won't be getting Botox anytime soon.

"I haven't done Botox. I don't like all that facial stuff.  It scares me. You see these people who have had it, and they all look the same. I I think I should just age. I've never been the prettiest person, and I don't feel I need to chase youth."




Pamela is not the only celebrity to collaborate with Secrets in Lace as Dita Von Teese also designed a collection of stockings.

Savvy Shopaholic - Festival Fashion - Oxegen 2011

With Oxegen opening it's gates today I set out to find not one, but a few Bargains in this week's Savvy Shopaholic segment!

The perfect place to find your festival fashion fix without emptying your pocket is Penneys (of course). I headed there yesterday to get my Oxegen bag of goodies and I found some amazing buys.

First of all if you are looking for Wellies and don't want to splash out, Penneys are selling cute ones for just €11 and then bigger, thicker pink or black ones for €15.



Penneys Wellies For Just €15

Next up I bought some shorts, this is a DEFINITE for any Oxegen fashionista. I bought a pair of illuminous shorts with frayed ends for just €11 and will pair them with a baggy black top (rock style of course), black leggins and the €11 wellies I bought in the store.

I also snapped up a gorgeous pair of black and red knee high socks, I will be wearing the thick socks plus leggins, to make sure I keep my feet warm in the mud and rain.



My wellies, socks, glasses and one piece at the ready!

As you can see in the pic above I also got white sunglasses for €1.50 and a gorgeous red and white stripped one piece for €6. Seriously, could I have found any better bargains??

As well as fashion, hair and make-up is really important this weekend, especially if you are camping. With rainfall a definite this weekend Dry Shampoo is absolutely essential!! You can buy a single can for €1.90 in Penneys, which is the cheapest out there.

As well as that, I didn't want to bring my Benefit stick foundation to the festival (could get broken or lose) so I got an amazing mousse foundation from Penneys yesterday. Only €3.99. Called 'Essence - Soft Touch Mousse'. Perfect to get me through this weekend, and the coverage is suprisingly really good.



This foundation is only €3.99

If you are willing to splash out on maybe an €80 pair of Hunter wellies, which are loved by celebs such as Kate Moss, Pixie Lott, Drew Barrymore and even Beyonce. Then you can get them at Asos.com.

At Glastonbury Laura Whitmore wore a pair from their newest range, the fire-red wellies looked amazing on her, so we can expect to see her back in Hunters this weekend.


Asos help you find the perfect looks.

The fashion website have also combined tonnes of festival looks based on your purchase, like the photo above. Check out what works for you here: Asos Festival Fashion.

At the end of the day, there's no point in spending too much money, we are still in a recession! Hunter wellies will last you a long time, but if you only want to wear these wellies this weekend I would go for the Penneys range.

At a more mid priced range Arnotts have a new line of Dav wellies which are the favourites of Irish celebs such as newlywed Pippa O'Connor, Lisa Cannon and Michelle McGrath. Their range is about €69 and the wellies come with little lace bows on the back (cute touch).



Dav wellies are sold at Arnotts

But focus your attention on baggy tops, short shorts, hats and lots and lots of socks! PLUS remember Pennys will have their very own 'Pop Up Shop' this year on site. From wellies to socks, to dry shampoo, to even tents, you can buy tonnes of fashion must haves this weekend.



That's it from me this time, catch you next week for more Fashion Bargains!

Cheryl Cole Shows Off New Hair Do At 28th Birthday Party!

Cheryl Cole is officially back in the spotlight!

After hiding away from the world for the last five weeks, Cheryl Cole has finally shown her face again and she is looking stunning!

The singer sent media into a frenzy this week when she was snapped with a blonde bob, and now she's been showing it off in style! Known now as a 'Chob' the former Girls Aloud bandmate looked really happy last night celebrating her 28th birthday.

Showing off her new honey blonde asymmetrical choppy bob properly for the first time, the Geordie looked back to her old self as she arrived at the Sanderson Hotel in London's Fitzrovia.

The former X Factor judge looked stunning in a white Stella McCartney Autumn/Winter 2011 chiffon dress with circular embellishments, which she teamed with a pair of champagne high-heeled sandals. Those circular embellishments will be everywhere now!




Among the top celeb guests were her Girls Aloud bandmates Nicola Roberts and Kimberly Walsh. Noticeable absent was her former close friend Simon Cowell, the music mogul's absence was felt by many and has restarted the rumours that the two are no longer speaking.

Her manager Will.i.am, headed to the party after performing with The Black Eyed Peas at the Wireless Festival in Hyde Park.

A friend of Cheryl's said of her new hair that she was ready for a new change: "It’s a new year, a new look – she wanted a change and she wanted to feel free."

Savvy Shopaholic - H&M

Happy Fashion Friday everyone!


Yes, it is that time again and this week I am showing you outfits, accessories and even shoes for under €20.00 from one of my favourite high street fashion stores, H&M.


As well as giving you top looks for under 20 quid I will of course be showing you my **STAR BUY** of the week. So, here's what I've got for you this week.



Day Time Look






The first item I found for my €20.00 budget was this gorgeous Blue Button Dress for just €19.95 this is a complete steal! I have to say, first off, that H&M's current sale is fantastic, I went shopper shopping this week, and most of their items were even cheaper than Pennys and the River Island Sale, so get down their ladies!

I loved this look because it is perfect for a girl with any shape and size because the waist band is flexible. The dress is also very flowy, so no skin tight material here. Meaning if it's a roasting hot day out and you are doing a lot of walking you won't be sweating to death!

Paired with a teeny-tiny brown bag like this and tonnes of jewellery, this is perfect for that festival chic look you'll need for Oxegen.


Lunch Time/Work Look





Next up block colours are so in right now, and I'm in love with this Block Brown and White Dress  once again coming in at just €19.95, this dress is completely multi-functional as you can doll yourself up for a night out or wear this to a lunch or even wear this dress to work.

The soft re-adjustable belt means that this look can be worn by women of all sizes. The belt can be stretched to give the look of a teeny-tiny west or you can loosen it up to feel a little bit more relaxed.

For a day time look pair this dress with minimal accessories, flat sandals or wedge sandals would be perfect for this dress and some long dangle earrings would be great for the low-cut white top. For work I would pair a blazer with this look, white preferably.


Day Time Comfort Look





Next up I spotted this gorgeous Oversized Sweater  under 20 quid again, yes just €19.95!! I love dresses but I have to say some days I just want to throw on a pair of leggings and wear a comfy but stylish sweater.

This sweater is perfect for a casual day of shopping, or just meeting a friend for a coffee. You can wear this big sweater with a pair of tight blue/white/black jeans or a pair of leggings. Match this look with a long necklace to create some movement on the sweater and add some bangles and sandals to create a boho chic look.

Another good thing about this look is you could actually use an massive chunky belt and wear this like a casual day time dress. Add a pair of tights and some wedge heels, and you've got a funky day time look!


Summer Sandals





Ok moving on to shoes, I really thought I'd struggle to find a pair for under 20 quid, but I actually found loads in H&M. These Strappy Wrap Around Sandals are by far my favourite. For a really low cost of €19.95 these sandals will last you the whole summer, and trust me, they will go with everything!

From a day-time dress to being paired with tight jeans or even leggings, you can wear these ivory sandals everywhere and anywhere (except Oxegen of course). These ones really remind me of Sienna Miller's kind of style, quite boho with a splash of sophistication.


The Slimming Belt





Next I vowed to find an accessory I could match with any one of these outfits for under 20 quid and yes, I did it again! For the teeny-tiny price of €9.95 you can buy this beautiful Leather Belt and this will go with anything!

This beige colour is perfect for a white dress or matched with a pair of jeans. It would also look great with every look I have shown you today. Chunky belts used to be in fashion, but it really is the slim, sleek belt that is in this season. The two belted look is also huge right now, with stars like Gwyneth Paltrow sporting the style just this week.

A belt can make a frumpy dress slimming and can create a waist on a long top or a pair of jeans.




**STAR BUY**





Finally I have to give you guys my star buy. Yes, this is the best bargain I found this week! For just €9.95 you can own this Figure Hugging Stripe Dress.

Stripes always go in and out of fashion but for Summer 2011 they are completely in! I'm loving the material of this dress, it falls really smoothly on your body, in all the right places! So you will really get a confident boost from this one.

The great thing about a black and white stripey look is that you can add bursts of colour to make the outfit complete. For example a short bright yellow cardigan would look stunning with this dress, matched with a small brown/white clutch bag and bright coloured heels/sandals it really is the perfect summer look!
...............................................................................................................................


Well that's all from me on this gorgeous Fashion Friday. Make sure to check in with me again next week for the cheapest buys on the Internet and on the high street in my Savvy Shopaholic segment!
