Not so Manley

There is nothing from young Irish designer Emma Manley's second collection-a beautiful mix of tailored capes, statement chiffon shirts and stunning dresses-that I don't want. I had the pleasure of meeting Emma at the recent Vogue Fashion Night Out in BT's and she was as lovely as her collection. I think this label is definitely one to watch...


More M&S than S&M??

Loving this pic of Rihanna and my old boss Mel Ottenberg casually stolling through a farm in Ireland as the singer shoots her new video for 'We Found Love'

Comeonnnn Commuun






Loving this look from Commuun's SS2012 Paris Show yesterday

My Mini Portfolio :)

Here's the link to some test shoots I styled with the very talented Norah Ward (photographer) and Ellen Quinn Banville (Make-up artist) along with some of our bevvy of beautiful friends as models

The rag and bone man


Love the thrown togetherness of this look that ooozes effortless cool in a way only the rag and bone boys do best.

The Style Factor

My dream job is to style the X Factor. Although I hate her and hope she doesn't make it to the Live Finals, I reckon I could definitely do a better job on Kitty Brucknell than she's currently doing on herself? She looks like a drag queen in tinfoil with wellies on

Out with a Bang, Not with a Whimpah

D&G, the 'younger, more flamboyant' line created by the Stefano and Domenico, the creative masterminds that are Dolce and Gabbana, is to be discontinued after its most recent SS12 line. Although it will be sorely missed, primarily for its boldness and individuality not to mention its lower price points, the designers assure us it is not gone but simply incorporated into the brand's main line. The final collection has a definite 60s feel to it, in both cut and the bohemian pattern demonstrated throughout. Although at times repetitive, the 61-piece collection is stunningly eye-catching and in true D&G fashion, the boys have gone out with a bang, not with a whimper...

Loving this look


Just the right amount of 'I don't even own a mirror I'm that unconcerned' co-ordinated cool...yes, I want to be on a sunny beach somewhere bohemian with this dude right now :)

I Blame Coco...

...For making me want to throw out my entire wardrobe and devote my life to dressing like her from this moment on...
