Look like Cheryl Cole for as much as £20

Fancy Cheryl Cole look? If you’re not one of those few lucky people who managed to win her dresses in the auction on ASOS, you can still buy a dress similar to the one Cheryl wore on the National Television Awards 2011 for just £20! The dress looks simple and elegant, and stripes on the backside give it an extra edge. Hurry up, it's sale time on ASOS!

Olivia Palermo at Jaeger London show

I just love Olivia Palermo's style! She's always so chic and sophisticated, she's one of those celebrities with a perfect taste and an immense sense of style, who can never get it wrong. Olivia tends to present fashion trends in the best way, and it's a rare person who can match accessories as well as she does. And although Olivia mostly wears expensive designer garments, sometimes she opts for more economic but nonetheless very stylish high street outfits, like this one from Reiss. It's affordable, meaning you don't have to spend all your budget to look just as good as her :)

                                                     Dress: Reiss, £159
                                               Boots: Cesare Paciotti, £260

50s Style

                                                                            Audrey Hepburn
                                                                             Marilyn Monroe
                                                       Louis Vuitton Fall/Winter 2010-2011 show
                                                             Louis Vuitton Cruise 2011 Look Book
                                                                                 Katy Perry

It can be easily noticed how 50s style restores its bygone popularity. Down with masculine costumes and aggressive details, its girls' time! Let's celebrate femininity and gracefulness and get inspired by the classic style icons of the past, such as Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe, who knew better than anyone else how to present their femininity in the best possible way.

What I personally love about 50s dresses is that they are not too open, not vulgar, yet they can never be called boring or unattractive. They're also very elegant and smart... In addition, 50s dresses can flatter almost any type of figure - their full skirts can add some curves to boyish figures, as well as hide massive thighs and accentuate waist of the pear shaped or hourglass body types. Not to mention how fashionable these clothes are right now, which is evident on various fashion shows and in celebrity outfits. Sounds like a perfect type of dress, doesn't it? Luckily, there are plenty of such dresses on the high street this summer, you just need to find the right model and colour for yourself.

                                                                 ASOS 50s Inspired Dress - £36

                                                                       Mango dress - £44.90

                                                                          ASOS dress - £150

                                                                         Reiss dress - £159

A greeting from Hong Kong



I know it’s been a long time since my last post, but I’ve been quite busy these days... I came to Hong Kong a few days ago, and as I have some free time now, I decided that the best way to spend it is to finally update my blog :)

So, the summer has began, the temperature is increasing, and the sunshine is dazzling... Well, at least it’s like that in Hong Kong (don’t really know about the UK, but I hope the weather doesn’t disappoint you either). And what can look better in the shiny sunlight than rich bright colours, which fill us with optimism? Just notice how fresh and stunning Nicole Scherzinger looks in this colourful dress, which perfectly suits her adorable smile!
