Maxi-mise Your Style!

Hi all,

It's been an unexpected fashion feast this week as all eyes were on America's first lady Michelle Obama and our favourite two style icons of the moment Sam Cam and the Duchess of Cambridge. With all three competing in the style stakes we've been hedging our bets on Michelle pipping it to the post. We haven't been as excited about a state visit since...., well never really! We've loved their combined eclectic mix of well know and up and coming designers (many being home grown and British we hasten to add). Here are our favourites;

                                             Michelle dazzles in White empire line Tom Ford gown.

                     Kate wearing the now famous Reiss camel dress and Anya Hindmarch clutch bag.

A striking image of Michelle Obama wearing Roksanda Ilincic, whilst Samantha Cameron had chosen Peter Pilotto. Both British designers.

Why not take note from Michelle and add a statement necklace to your outfit. Whether it's putting a finishing touch to an evening look or glaming up a day tee shirt or blouse.


Day have come up trumps with this beautiful beaded 'Splendid' necklace. It has a black ribbon fastening allowing you to wear at any desired length.


                 Or for a more subtle (ish) approach we also love this smoky Day 'Crystals' necklace, £55


Our chosen outfit of the week is this versatile jersey maxi dress from Malene Birger (£143). A great holiday essential that will take you;

From day- Slip on a perfect pair of flat sandals, manicured toes and head to the poolside bar.

To night- Changed sandals for wedges and add lots of glamorous gold jewellery.

Here we've styled it for the UK with a mustard American Vintage tank layered underneath (£35), tan woven belt (£38) and a Day Birger et Mikkelsen mushroom cardy (£145) for extra coverage.

Have a great weekend. We will be closed bank holiday Monday 30th, but will be back open Tuesday 31st May.

See you soon xx
