The best place to shop this Christmas season is the Trafford Centre because it is the easiest to get to and it is indoors so you dont have to suffer with the cold weather.

They have lots of stores which include:

  • Selfridges
  • Topshop
  • Debenhams
  • J0hn Lewis
  • Gap
  • Aldo
  • Marks & Spencer
  • JJB
  • Footlocker
  • Mamas & Papas

there are lots more on top of that as well.

Why not after your shopping spree head to the Orient and have a bite to eat and a glass of whatever you fancy to relax.

I will definately be going when the Christmas sales are on.

Tesco is selling a replica copy of Kate Middletons dress she wore when her and Pince William announced their engagement last month.

The dress is selling for £16 which is a mere fraction of the £399 price tag the dress cost Kate when she purchased hers.

the dress is a similar blue with a similar neckline, sleaves and waistline and is expected to sell out fast.

Shops are also selling out of replica’s of the ring Kate was given which was previously Princess Diana’s (Prince Williams Mum).

Prada’s beach trends for Spring/Summer 2010

Monday, February 22, 2010 posted by Brooke 9:18 am

It might be a little early for some people to start thinking about the sunny (fingers crossed!) summer season, but for fashionistas; wardrobe planning for spring/summer 2010 is already well underway.

For style ideas and hints on high-fashion trends for the season, look no further than Miuccia Prada’s 2010 Resort collection.

The beach-themed catwalk show featured some chic, easy-to-wear dresses themed with the aqua, coral and sand colours of Miami Beach, and these were complimented and contrasted with bold , detailed prints.

Wear over short skirts or bikinis, but don’t be afraid to throw in a colourful varsity shirt or a flower-adorned pair of wedges or sandals.

New York Fashion Week shows its masculine side

Tuesday, February 16, 2010 posted by Andy 9:13 am

At New York Fashion week recently, the strongest influence in most collections was menswear. The masculine style seems to be taking over fashion trends, with ‘boyfriend’ jeans, jackets and masculine tailoring. Here are a couple of the highlights:

• Victoria Beckham – It seems that Posh Spice has finally found her talent, as she showcased 26 dresses from her collection in an intimate preview. As well as the sleek tailoring, drapery and textured fabrics, there was also a strong 1940s detective and Hollywood femme fatale theme in the strong, masculine trench-style pieces.

• Diane von Furstenberg – This established designer unleashed her masculine side in her much-anticipated catwalk show. A key theme was men’s jackets paired with feminine flowery dresses to signify both strength and sex appeal.

Burberry’s first 3D catwalk show at London Fashion Week

Monday, February 8, 2010 posted by Kieran 5:25 pm

Just as James Cameron’s record-breaking film ‘Avatar’ and a number of recent Sky Sports football matches were all shown in 3D, fashion shows are also set to be jumping on the 3D bandwagon thanks to trend-setters Burberry. Ahead of the upcoming London Fashion Week starting on February 19th, Burberry has announced that its epic catwalk show will be broadcast in 3D.

After recent figures demonstrated that Burberry’s profits amounted to £380 million in the last three months of 2009, it seems like the luxury designer brand is celebrating with this latest extravagant idea. One thing’s for sure though – it’s set to be an amazing show.

Sportswear

Following my previous post about looking out for some nice new swimwear, I have started my training so that I look my very best while I am practically half naked on an exotic beach. I feel it is necessary to look the part whilst I am slogging away at the gym on my treadmill. I actually struggle to buy gym clothes as I am not one of these people who is comfortable wearing lycra shorts and tight tops I prefer baggy clothes with which I feel comfortable in and I able to move in! There is lots of variety out there, it is simply about choosing items which suit your personal taste. look online or on the high street for some great deals.

Swim Wear

Tuesday, January 26, 2010 posted by Brooke 11:30 am

Now you might think I am a little bit crazy, but in my opinion in January it is nice to start looking forward to booking a holiday. I am sure you would all agree we have had enough snow this month to last us a life time! A sunshine break is exactly what the doctor ordered, which means new swim wear is essential. Yes I am sure everyone has a bikini that they could use, but there are so many new and vibrant styles and colours which come out each year, I am keen to keep up with the trends. You never know, new trends might really flatter your figure and you would feel terrible if you missed out! Getting looking now!

Getting ready for Spring!

Saturday, January 16, 2010 posted by Brooke 1:30 pm

I am looking ahead to the spring right now and it appears everyone is doing the same! Personally I am one of these people who prefers to wear lighter colours, and unfortunately my winter wardrobe is full of dark browns and blacks, so it is great to take the opportunity in spring and summer to really brighten things up. Obviously the weather it is a little too cool at present to be getting out the summer dresses, but there are ways of introducing some of your spring wardrobe, a little early. For example you can wear summer dresses over leggings. It is time to experiment and see what suits you!
