Same time next year...

2011-12-31T11:54:00.002Z

Ok so this time last year I posted my aims for the coming year, 2011

~~1. Party more~~

2. Visit New York

3. Get fit

4. Have an adventure

5. See the Northern Lights

~~6. Move out of my parents house~~

7. Appear in an episode of Dr Who (...ermm...it looks like fun!)

8. Reach 200 followers on this blog (too ambitious?)

Turns out I didn't do too well, so we'll try again for 2012... hmmmmm

I definitely partied more, moving out of my parents house and into central London helped that, so maybe now I should calm it down and get on with something else.

2012

1. Find a new job (I will be officially funemployed from 10th January and whilst I can't wait for a break, I do think maybe I will be needing a new job as soon as my last paycheck runs out...the idea of working freelance for a couple of months has brought out an uncontrollable desire to spend for some reason)

2. Visit New York

3. Blog more

4. See the Northern Lights

5. Get fit and drink more water

6. Launch Chariteatowel and raise a lot of money for Raise The Roof Kenya/SMA Trust

7. Star in a music video

8. Have fun

That should do for a year...

Any further suggestions are warmly appreciated

Let me know if you have set any good resolutions or goals for next year, I might want to steal them... thanks

and HAPPY NEW YEAR! xxx

If ever I need some encouragement...

Chloe? check. Arizona Muse? check. Freja? check...

and yet...

I wasn't the biggest fan of this new Chloe collection and I'm even not loving Arizona's new bowl cut.

Freja looks as fab as ever (has anyone ever seen a photo of her looking less than amazing?!).

I guess we will have to wait and see how the final campaign turns out but right now it's just not floating my boat.

Anyone still there?

2011-11-15T21:40:00.001Z

To say my blog had been neglected is a bit of an understatement...

I am sorry to anyone who still checks to see any updates, last month I posted twice which is an all time low.

First fashion week left me knackered and since then I've been looking for a new job, having been in my current job since graduating 3 years ago. Plus I have started a new project, which if you follow me on Twitter you might have noticed me mention and if not, I hope to share everything with you soon. In the meantime follow @Chariteatowel on twitter!!

So bear with me, I promise to do my best to get back in the swing of things soon. And if anyone wants to give me a job that would be fab haha... London, New York or Paris...

But here we go, start as we mean to go on - How amazing is Kasia in the new Zara November lookbook?

Shame none of the clothes actually seem to be available, but maybe I'll take her lead and go dark too. Her hair colour is beautiful and I'll be her this month please.

Yikes!!!

I have lots to post and will get on it when I am finally back in London on Friday

but as a thought for now - how bloody amazing was the Vuitton show?!!

Day off

2011-09-24T15:25:00.002+01:00

Had a day off in beautiful Florence so went for a walk around today.

My fave photo of the day...

I've also noticed a few more followers int he last couple of weeks so thank you!

Sorry I have been so MIA with blogger, back home on October 7th so will hopefully have lots to share then.

Marc's Mix Up

2011-09-16T09:59:00.002+01:00

I admit I don't have as much time to scroll through all the shows as I used to, but this season from what I have caught I've been left a little disappointed. Even my NY favourites - Phillip Lim, Proenza Schouler, Rodarte have left me feeling a little flat...

So thank goodness for Marc! Who knew I needed a bin liner skirt and acid yellow headscarf? Well Marc did.

Marc's SS12 collection follows the pastel colour palettes that have been seen all over the NY catwalks this season with added pops of bright yellow. Plus there are subtle nods towards the last Prada AW show - soft textures mixed with plastic layers and pailettes.

Marc is back to his grungy, mixed up best. I love it!

Now let's see what he does for his final Vuitton show, no doubt this will be the show of the season as he goes out with a bang!

Back to School

2011-08-29T20:57:00.003+01:00

Having had 5 weeks off work (thank you Paris for closing during August!) I was becoming slightly accustomed to the world of leisure, and now (like a school girl dreading the first day of a new term, albeit without a brand new pencilcase or shoes) I have to go back...

To get myself back in the mood, and hopefully to draw some last minute inspiration, I'm going to get an early night and settle into bed to watch a recent purchase -

£2.50 brand new in cellophane from a local charity shop!

I hope everyone has had a great Summer (even if you were in the UK and it rained/was never really Summer at all!)...do we dare hope for an Indian Summer or just really give up now and look forward to new Winter coats and layers of knitwear?

The Alternative Choice

2011-08-28T16:13:00.003+01:00

Yes we all know there was a certain wedding this year...and a certain wedding dress that got more press than Victoria Beckham and Cheryl Cole combined, but personally I'm loving this year's alternative wedding dress choices

Dazed and Confused Editor Katie Shillingford chose a stunning bespoke Gareth Pugh for her wedding to Alex Dromgoole in Greenwich earlier this month. The soft grey creation was accessorized with a delicate Stephen Jones veil over perfect pink hair.

Love Love LOVE!

And now, this weekend Sofia Coppola married Thomas Mars in a lilac Alaia gown, I havent managed to find any full length photos yet but I already love what I can see.

I'm not sure if I've ever seen Emma Stone in a film...

I've seen her on best dressed lists and in gossip pages but her latest cover of US Elle magazine and the accompanying shoot means I'll be looking out for her in the future

How did this pass me by?

2011-06-08T21:49:00.025+01:00

I completely missed the new handbags from the Olsen twins' label The Row, but they both carried them last night at the CFDAs.

They remind me of the Celine bags but in a more vintage, cool style.

The classic design means it would be an investment...

I'm loving Ashley's coral, larger size, but at nearly five and a half thousand dollars I can't see it landing in my wardrobe any time soon.

Although it does make the Sofia Coppola for Vuitton suede bag I m currently coveting seem almost reasonable at just under $4000.

“We didn’t want too much branding; we didn’t want an It bag,” says Mary-Kate of the new line....Their decision to delve into the accessories market was only natural. “We are such bag people,” says Ashley.

There is a choice of blue or pink covers (I went for pink) both starring Tati Cotlier!

Which will you choose?

Love Love Love

Inside there is an interview with the brilliant Peter Copping as well as a Nina Ricci shoot, Brooke Shields discusses her career, the usual adorable Lula editorials, we are introduced to female band Warpaint, cover star Tati is styled by Leith Clark for her shoot, and much more...

Met Gala 2011

2011-05-02T11:48:00.001+01:00

With no official guestlist to go on we can only speculate about who will turn up to this year's MET gala, hosted by Anna Wintour with Colin Firth and Salma Hayek.

We do know however that this year the Gala is set to honour the late Alexander McQueen and an exhibition marking his 19-year career, entitled "Savage Beauty", so we can hope to see a lot of archive McQueen on the red carpet.

Long time friend and muse of McQueen, Daphne Guinness will be there (in fact she is getting dressed in the Barney's shop windows before the event so if anyone is in New York today, grrrr I'm jealous, and also head to Barney's for 5pm to see her picking out her outfit). Also in attendance will be Gisele, Coco Rocha, Blake Lively (in Chanel with Mr Lagerfeld on her arm), Kristen Stewart, Eva Mendes, Kate Hudson, Bar Rafaeli,

Spring Summer 2005 was one of my favourite McQueen collections ever, I am not sure which pieces will make up the retrospective inside the MET but I hope to see at least some of these on the red carpet tonight.

Also could we be seeing Ms Chung in one of these....

she says in this month's UK Vogue how she prefers to wear tuxedos to large events (such as her Phillip Lim outfit at last year's MET ball) and there are some great choices in McQueen's archive

Hopefully Alexander McQueen will inspire some bold choices on the red carpet tonight.

Let's get sorry out the way

Whilst I still have ridiculous girl crushes on Natasha Poly and Freja I also have a new hilarious favourite.

I didn't even really notice Tati Cotliar before seeing her during a fitting at work. But more than her looks, it was her personality that stood out against the sea of other top models.

Plus her personal dress sense.

She's one to watch for sure.

With 63 looks Marc was truly spoiling us, see them all here
Or watch the show here

and a couple I'm really not sure....they'll probably catch on cos it's Marc Jacobs buuuut...

If anyone is still reading all the way down here - sorry for being AWOL.

How do people keep up with their blogs so regularly during this crazy time?

I'm off to Paris again today but will be blogging as usual as much as I can over the next few weeks.

It's time to brighten up!

Back before you know it

2011-02-06T21:20:00.000Z

Got a 3.30am wake up call tomorrow and then will be in four different cities in 3 different countries over the next 4 days!

I'll be away all week til Friday with limited internet access so will make my apologies now and say I will be back next weekend with a new StyleLine and more posts.

Thank you to my newest followers, and hope everyone has a great week.

Spring's just round the corner right?

I do hope so cos I for one am fed up with this cold weather hampering my desire to wear a few less layers.

SGC N-Y-C will be my destination of choice when the sun finally does emerge again and I can throw caution to the wind and leave the house wearing a fine jumper or, dare I even hope for, just a slouchy tee.

Especially loving the brown jumper and white shirt from the video below...

Rachel Bilson was out and about in LA yesterday in this amazing Vanessa Bruno jacket and Pamela Love necklace.

Loving the coral over her nude dress, and whilst that necklace wasn't at the top of my list of things to buy from Pamela Love (there are a few...) it looks awesome and I now need it.

Could it be?! Is it she?!

I couldn't be more excited about the rumours surrounding Gemma Ward's return to modelling!

She has long been my favourite and I'd love to see her back in editorials.

Gemma was on the front cover of the Sunday Times (Australian) and looks amazing.

In the interview she discusses her relationship with Heath Ledger just before he passed away, her plans to carry on acting and maybe her return to modelling also.

She is due to tread the boards in Perth from March as the lead in a play for three months and then let's hope we see her again very soon!

StyleLine - Kate Bosworth

all pictures from katbosworthonline.com

Which is your favourite look?

I still absolutely love her Chloe ensemble from 2009 and the Chloe shorts and blazer she wore in 2008.
I think she really found her style around 2007 when she started wearing (what now seem to be her favourite) designers such as Chloe and supporting emerging designers at the time - Rodarte, Preen.
Her style is always very girly and her hair is generally left looking natural and simple.

I think bold colours looks fab on her - as shown more recently in the Valentino red leather trousers and THAT Proenza Schouler dress.
(Pleeeeeeeeease can I have anything from the new Proenza Schouler collection...thanks x)

Picked up an old copy of Another Magazine on my favourite mag stall on Leather Lane this morning and found some great pics of the Olsens.

Off to Paris this weekend for a friend's birthday and a secret meeting!
Won't have any internet access (maybe find me on Twitter) but back Sunday night to post my first in a series of StyleLines!

Have a great weekend whatever you are up to! xx

lilac days

2011-01-18T23:13:00.000Z

Received a package from The Outnet today, I got bored at the weekend and decided this watch was what my life was missing. I have a similar plain blue one that my sister bought for me for $2 in Thailand but I thought this one is perfect for the Summer's colour blocking. Now I just need to get the lilac back in my hair...anyone got any tips on how to prevent it from fading so damn fast?

Transation - My computer is not working so we since I spilt a drink on my keyboard - got no "o" r "l" letters, limited punctuation and you would be surprised how many times you use those keys!

Have cleverly decided to email myself from my blackberry... here's where people probably tell me I could just blog from my phone, but I can't work out how. So I don't.

Got lots coming up to follow my new layout. Thanks for all your comments!

In the meantime come find me on Twitter or Facebook!

I was just going to post some pictures of the Louis Vuitton PreFall collection this morning and then spotted that Sofia Coppola was already out and about in the season's jewellery before it had even hit style.com.

It really does help to have friends in high places eh Sofia!
