We know the sky’s have been grey and stormy of late, the mornings have been a little cooler and, even though we’re still in August, the odd little leaf is turning red. It feels like a sign of things to come.. But don’t be sad, it’s the opportunity to use some of August’s pay cheque to treat your self to a season investment piece.
If you want a luxury bag to make the weekend days seem lighter and brighter, go for the Alexa clutch in plum. As you know, Mulberry’s Alexa bag, inspired by style icon Alexa Chung, has reached star status and this latest and smallest edition to the family is starting to share the limelight! Wear by day, with the shoulder strap, as a very ontrend cross the body bag - or by evening, warm up, even the most casual outfit by removing the strap and using it as a clutch – taking a tip from Olivia Palermo above, who wears Topshop with her nude tone Alexa clutch.
The rich, plum leather is sure to make you stand out and the goldtone twistlock and buckles work really well – love it with skinny jeans, great knitwear, platform heels and a simple gold bangle. Click the images or the banner for more details – you know you want to…

Yellow, we sometimes find it a bit of a difficult colour – but this spring Asos are loving it. Using yellow accessories to warm up a stark white dress or white accessories to cool down a bright yellow number – the two do seem to work as a perfect pairing (well millions of daisies can’t be wrong)! It’s all very clean and lovely and Doris Day. Will you be wearing it? Let us know. Also outfit photos are always very welcome.
Follow this link for the Asos feature on yellow and white trends, which inlcudes a video and a very catchy little tune!

Well, here come some of the most colourful, fashionable and glamorous events on the sporting calendar. A chance to dress up, wear hats, accessorise to your heart’s content – oh and maybe watch a little horse racing and have a little flutter into the bargain. As we know, Ladies’ days at the races are all about winning – in the outfit stakes that is!
This year Coast offers us loads of wonderful inspiration in the shape of beautifully crafted dresses in all the seasons major trends, monochromes, neutrals, florals, colour blocks and brights. They have the headwear, the jewellery, the bags and the cover-ups – (they’ve even put together a racing calendar for us so we don’t miss a trick) all that’s left for us to do is mix and match the perfect outfit.
If you’re at Royal Ascot this year, beware, the dress code is much stricter. Hats or a substantial fascinator must be worn. If you’re wearing a strapless or thin strap dress you’ll need a little cover up – as bare shoulders are a no-no, as are very short skirts. Other race meets my be a bit more free and easy, but generally the challenge is to plan an outfit that’s elegant, and shall we say ‘ladylike,’ but also that’s fun and not boring. We can do that!

We’re under starters orders with these effortlessly stylish monochromes shown above- there are loads more to choose from at the site. The great thing about the Duchess dress is it’s part of the Fashion Targets Breast Cancer Campaign – a £40 donation will go to the charity.
And we’re off, combining neutrals, colour block and body con trends with these gorgeous tone on tone pieces.
We’ll come back with a follow up post and take a look at ideas around florals and brights – we’ll maybe get a maxi dress in there too. Just to let you know, Coast have free delivery available from now until midnight on April 11th. In the meantime visit the site and play around with some emsembles of your own – hmm I think we feel a competition coming on..
