Our favourite Manhattan stylista socialites will be hanging up their Louboutins around Christmas time this year – Gossip Girl is back on October 8th for its last ever series. Another dampener is the rumour that the show will only be running for around 10 episodes this time, which is less than half than the other ones – 10 sets of 40 minutes are just not enough for my last ever GG fix.
I have been fashion-perving on Dahlia’s beautiful clothes for a couple of years now and, sadly, still cannot afford to purchase anything. Their gorgeously girly, yet still tailored and very Alexa Chung lines have attracted the attention of many a celebrity stylist – with the likes of ever on-trend Caroline Flack being papped in their clothes. Their New In collection does not disappoint, especially given the A/W styles coming in (my favourite time of the fashion calendar) and leather, baroque-styling and floaty blouses taking over floral dresses and sandals, finally.
If you’re one of those girls who can just throw an outfit together and have it look like every detail has been slaved over by the likes of Karl Lagerfeld, you may want to enter this competition. LOOK Magazine are currently offering the girls with the quirkiest style who upload a picture onto here, a chance to style a model on the LOOK Show catwalk! If that wasn’t enough, check out the other prizes you’d win (taken from the LOOK website)…
If you haven’t watched the last episode of either (and why on Earth wouldn’t you?), you may want to check these out first and then read more as this post is rife with spoilers:
I decided to dip-dye my hair last week – with the mantra “If Alexa Chung can do it, everyone can and should” dancing around in my head. Obviously, I’d need to bleach my whole being and start over, if I wanted to look anything like the gorgeous Chung, but she’s definitely a good role model in the ‘cool stakes’. There are a few types of dip-dyeing that you can choose from, if you’re brave enough to get creative on your hair. You can choose from standard dip dyeing which is the more hippy-looking option, with a block of different colour at the ends of your hair, or the celebrity-favoured ombre look, where the hair gradually fades into a different colour at the ends.
