Sweet Like Candy Girl

Hi all,

Food is never far from our minds here at L'Armoire and as the new season collections trickles through the door we can't help compare the sweet candy colours with our favourite confections and treats..., in particular, ice cream! American Vintage have certainly covered every flavour you could think of and it's making us hungry! From peach, melon and mango to cool mint, lemon and raspberry, there's plenty on the menu to choose from, yum!



A seasonal Staple

We've talked in the past about the 'wardrobe staples' that we think every girl should have in her life and with a new season underway, there's no better time than to start looking in to your spring/summer wardrobes and seeing exactly what's needed. This week our 'wardrobe staple' of choice is THE BLAZER. A timeless and easy piece that can be styled up or down, is transitional between seasons and is a complete essential in our eyes. Here we've chosen three little beauties that are new in L'Armoire to get you started.

Day's super cute grey marl soft blazer with pretty broderie anglaise detail under the collar allows you to effortlessly style it with collar up and cuffs rolled back. Styling Tip- Team it with jeans, oversized shirt and scarf now and a soft cotton dress when the weather warms up.


Malene Birger's cream cotton mix one button blazer has a little more structure and shape. Styling Tip- A great work wear piece that will keep any outfit looking 'pulled together' but can easily be worn off duty too.


A classic navy blazer will never let you down. Coveted by many a style icon from Princess Di to the ever stylish editor-in-chief of French Vogue Emanuelle Alt. Malene Birger's double breasted little number has got longevity written all over it. Styling Tip- Looks great teamed with all kinds of stripes for a nautical edge.


And the Oscar Goes To....

Gwyneth Paltrow totally knocked us out with her cool, clean and just enough 'fashion forward' outfit at the Oscars on Sunday. Tom Ford was the man responsible for the stunningly simple white slash neck gown accompanied by a floor length white cape. We loved it and she was the clear winner for 'Best Dressed' category...if there actually was one. (Plus extra bonus points for impeccable accessorising too).
