LFW Hen Clash!
1 March 2016
London Fashion Week has been and gone for another season and I have to apologise to all my lovely readers about the lack of LFW stalking coming from this end but I can assure you I have a good excuse.. I was in fact on my Hen Party! Here's a little peep at last weekends goings on...
LFW Day 1: The Pez Party, Camilla Elphick
20 September 2015
On Friday the talented shoe designer Camilla Elphick launched her latest SS16 collection in a super cool showroom on the back streets of Soho, right next door to the famous night club The Box.
Sweet sounds boomed from the speaker as the DJ played all night, with guests sipping on glasses of bubbly and green tea cocktails, this party was certainly an excellent way to start the London Fashion Week festivities!
Secret Garden Party Stalking
28 July 2014
Another year past and another epic weekend at The Secret Garden Party! This year the sun shone all weekend lighting up every feather and glitter sparkle across the fields near Huntingdon, the home of the best party in the land.
Here is the Style StreetStalker's guide to SGP...
1. Pack a bikini - the lake may be veeery brown but after a whole afternoon dancing to Clean Bandit and the Correspondents, a little refreshing dip is just what the doctor ordered!
Diesel Party: Glow In The Dark Ping Pong
26 June 2013
There's no doubt that one of the coolest brands out there has to be Diesel's 55DSL, aka 'Studio 55' who simply hold the best parties and have the coolest clothes - what more could one ask for!?!
Recently I went along to one of their parties which was, wait for it.... GLOW IN THE DARK PING PONG!!!!
Stupidly cool!!!!
Studio 55 was born not only to be a very cool extension of the Diesel brand, but to also promote young artists, DJs, and skaters. That's exactly the reason they held their recent event under the arches in the backstreets of Clarkenwell in Ping Tron, a permanent venue set up for glow in the dark ping pong and partying! - If you haven't been GO!

I loved this dudes style, not many men can pull of earrings!!!
This time Studio 55 were supporting emerging artist Benjamin Murphy, who does the most amazing pieces all from just sticky tape and a scalpel.
There's no doubt that my Ping Pong performance skills got so much better thanks to the alcohol sponsor for the evening - the rather yummy, Oranjeboom!
Another awesome party by Studio 55, with live acts from DJ Mo Fingaz, Reggae Roast and Mohson Stars, we danced and played ping pong late into the night, with my ping pong skills getting increasing worse.. oops I mean better!!
As you can probably tell, I'm rather obsessed with these guys - recently the brand had a revamp from what was a skater brand to a chic fashion brand with some extreeemely cool pieces! Check out 55DSL here, I'm obsessed with their Fropical jackets - anything called Fropical is worth a second take!!!

New Fashion Kids On The Block
6 May 2013
If you noticed the a shortage of rock 'n' roll fashion folk in certain parts of London a couple of weeks ago, let me enlighten you to their where-abouts, 46 Carnaby Street for the opening of the first London store of the Parisian Rock 'n' Roll kids Eleven Paris.
Much to the excitement of all the guests mid way through the night, frozen cocktail ice sticks by Icey Done were handed out to all of us who were dancing a little bit too much to Boy George and getting a little bit too hot!!!
Loving BG's eye shadow!!
As well as some awesome music by the likes of Boy George, this was one of those launch parties which were full of delicious surprises, like Big Apple Hotdogs to satisfy our post work munchies and washed down with pink lemonade gin cocktails!
Guests included London's rock creme De Le creme; Daisy Lowe and the Le Bons!
Eleven Paris are the new rock 'n' roll kids on the block in London, two years it was The Kooples, now it's these guys, with a cracking brand attitude and advertising campaign to match, featuring Keith Richards, Iggy Pop and Lenny Kravitz. 10 years old, Eleven Paris has 16 stores in France with 8 in Paris, so I think you will agree it was about time our French fashion friends crossed the waters and opened a stand alone store here, after already having a big presence online and in multi-brand stores such as Urban Outfitters, ASOS and Selfridges.
I adore their tee's most of all and to the delight of all of us money saving shopaholics the tees are on the right side of £50!! Love the Marilyn one above!
Check out their new store on 46 Carnaby Street! Find them online here.

FEAST Your Eyes On This!!
11 March 2013
As you may have noticed recently there has been a huge trend in London for cool, pop up, or concept restaurants that proudly shout 'WE'RE SO SPECIAL YOU CAN'T RESERVE US'!!
Well for the likes of you and me that can't be bothered to queue 45 minutes in the freezing cold for a table at one of these fashionable hang outs, there's one other option.. which is FEAST, a food festival made up of all these places under one awesome East End Roof!
Let the eating games begin!
Studio 55DSL Launch Party
26 February 2013
As they used to say, what happens in Studio54 stays in Studio54.. well the days of Andy Warhol's den of creativity are no longer, but there's a new kid on the block in the form Studio 55DSL, part of the well known brand Diesel.
At the launch party of Studio 55, the same rules applied!!
Admittedly this little Style StreetStalker hardly ever ventures East and if I do it's always to Shoreditch and Hoxton, two of my favourite areas buzzing with creative media types, sure enough this is where the 55DSL team decided to hold the launch party for Studio 55! A truly awesome location tucked away under the Hoxton Arches in the venue called 'The Slaughter House' !
55DSL, have a rich history of supporting emerging artists and musicians these past 15 years and more recently through the StudioFiftyFive project. The project provides a creative lab for artists to make and showcase their work.
A cause that is very close to my own creative heart, they have supported street-style photographers Gavin Watson and Alex Fakso, and bands such as 'Little White Lies', acclaimed artists Best Ever and graphic illustrator MitchyBwoy
Urban culture are the fundamental roots of 55DSL, who have sponsored the likes of skater Tony Hawk and surfer Joel Tudor. The brand is designed to represent the fast-paced and vibrant lives of young skateboarders, tattoo artists, street performers and alternative musicians.
Set in a warehouse, we were entertained by the up and coming DJs Gorgon City and Sheffield's legendary Toddla T in the intimate space where one style rule applied - don your beanie and let your hair down!
Le GrandDouche and I raved throughout the night, aided by our faithful friends by the name of Oranjeboom Beer, who sponsored the launch!
Toddla T on the decks.. in his awesome pug tee!!
There is something very exciting about StudioFiftyFive, started originally as only a blog, it’s now on the road to becoming global, showcasing and encouraging new talent on their new fully interactive website. They hold regular events, the latest being a very fun mammoth street party in Box Park in Shoreditch - be sure to check out others they have coming up on their site.

Twelfth Night at The Victoria Pleasure Gardens
28 December 2012
On the twelfth night before Christmas, time rewound itself to the 17th Century and planted me in the middle of The Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens! This may sound distinctively like a sex party but I can assure you whole heartily it was not!!! The Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens was a place where the folk of London used to go to and be entertained by the beautiful gardens, concerts, music and food in the mid 17th century.
This was all brought to us by the Young Georgians which is the 'younger set' of the Georgian Group and all under the roof of number six Fitzroy Square, at their latest 'Georgian Townhouse Party'!
We all dressed up in our best Georgian attire for a night to remember!
The gorgeous Emily wears a vintage Zandra Rhodes dress, giggling while having her picture taken by the talented photographer Tom Medwell (and little meee!)
Festive head gear!!!
Throughout the night we sipped many glasses of champers, watched the most beautiful ballet, danced a little ourselves in full Georgian style late into the evening!
The organiser and head of the Young Georgians; Oliver Gerrish and friends, Henry Conway and the beautiful Leanora!
This is the second Georgian Townhouse party I have attended, the first you may remember I was prancing around as a fairy - here's a little recap! The organisers of these fabulous parties are Oliver Gerrish and Sophie Edmonds of the event company Edmonds and Gerrish. Sophie is the talent behind Lady Greys, a dance and events company, supplying performers for the events such as the premiere for the latest Bond film's afterparty.
If you would like to join me at the next party, the annual membership is only £25 and it's well worth every penny with the parties they throw!!!
All costumes supplied by Edmond & Gerrish and Lady Greys
