STALKED: Vanessa, Fashion Blogger of Fashion Loverette

9 May 2014

I met Vanessa on the street near Somerset House, looking as stylish as she normally does on her fabulous blog Fashion Loverette. I'm currently obsessed with white on white styling so could not let this lovely lady walk past without stalking her!

A personal style blogger originally from Germany, now a London resident shares her unique style and love of all things beautiful through Fashion Loverette - follow her here.


J Crew's Bid To Save The Bee's

7 May 2014

If you haven't already heard the exciting news of J Crews latest UK venture, then I strongly suggest you read on.... As I type J Crew are embarking on a store opening to top all store openings, in the old location of Link of London in Sloane Square. They have acquired this 4,500 square-foot unit and have erected the most awesome vertical 'living' garden on the exterior of the building, designed to attract and promote pollination. Jenna Lyons, J Crew's president and executive creative director was inspired to partner up with Buglife, after seeing a documentary about our dying Bee population. This subject is incredibly close to my heart as well, my mother and I are known as the worker bees in our family, so anything with a bee on it I tend to get very excited!!!

STALKED: Noelle Reno, star of the new TV show; Ladies Of London

5 May 2014

Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing an industry sweetheart, with a career CV to beat all CVs!! From her first company (a babysitting agency, age 10) to her first haunt/adventure as an international model (Tokyo, age 14) fashion industry insider, expert, entrepreneur and broadcaster Noelle has built up extensive knowledge and experience within fashion and media. Noelle founded a diffusion brand with Zandra Rhodes, OBE, marking the first time the icon designer has taken a partnership in her 45 year career.  Noelle’s success has allowed her the freedom to pursue passions such as writing, blogging, and public speaking. She contributes regularly to a variety of publications including Mail on Sunday, VV, The Gent, acts as the celebrity blogger for Britain’s leading department store House of Fraser, and speaks publicly for the likes of the British Fashion Council.


What are you working on now and why do you love what you're doing?

My whole life – from the time I could understand basic things about life – has been about following my dreams. That’s a very difficult path – or at least for me it meant sacrifices, digging deep within yourself a lot, and dealing against high odds. This year, I feel I’m on course with my dream and it’s a deeply satisfying feeling. I get to be creative, be around creatives, and have the nice “wrapping paper” as I call it! Meaning the superficial benefits. 



STALKED: Wendy Gilmore, Fashion Blogger.

2 May 2014

Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing one of my favourite fashion bloggers, the lovely Wendy Gilmore; the brains and beauty behind the blog Thank Fifi. The blog is a personal style blog with a twist, not only do we get to pour over her wonderful style but she also includes her gorgeous dog, Fi, in every picture, check her out here and see why I'm raving about her!!! 

What do you do and what do you love about your job?

 By day I am PR and Marketing Manager for bluebellgray, a Scottish interiors brand.  It's always busy and always so full of colour.  The studio we work in and the girls I work work with are a constant source of inspiration - no matter what I wear to work nothing is off limits!



STALKED: Ania, Founder of Whistle & Bango

27 April 2014

I think we're all a little guilty of participating in some way in the big London postcode war! If you live North, the thought of moving South sends shivers down your spin, if you live East going West is super un-cool, and so on!! So when I stumbled over this brand I simply had to track down one of the founders to find out more about her witty idea to design postcode bangles, for the likes of us who are very proud of where we live!

What do you do and why do you love your job? 

I can proudly say, that I am Co-founder of the luxury Jewellery brand Whistle & Bango along with my colleagues Rosie and Ashley. Shamelessly, the best part for me personally is seeing something go from a casual mention; supported by a lot of optimism, into a tangible vision and brand.
