#stylepost - Reformation LA


Los Angeles based company Reformation isn't exactly new on the scene as it's actually been around since 2009 but only recently have I come across it. I'll get back to that in a minute.

A sustainable company that is proud to use renewable energy and recycled packaging at their onsite LA based sewing factory. There is no middleman. Reformation and it's simply designed garments go from factory to boutique to home. 

If that's not enough, 3/4 of the management team are women and all employees receive one paid day off a month to volunteer in their local communities.

So, back to finding Reformation in the first place. 






First it was Bella Hadid scattered across my Instagram/Pinterest feeds in the Avalon bodysuit $78 at Coachella and if that wasn't enough to make me grab my laptop and purse, Emily Ratajkowski, Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Benson and Chiara Ferragni weren't too far behind in the lace up number either. Unfortunately for me fortunately for my bank balance the Avalon is now sold out but there are more current options, including the new 'For Boobs' story.

Some of my favourite bodysuit picks and others.

Selena bodysuit $78 SOLD OUT
Serena bodysuit for boobs $78
Miramar dress $168
Miami tank $98

 Tijuana tees $68
Dan tee $28
Corsoca playsuit $178

                                           Lima dress $178                                       

Currently there are no stores in Europe, only LA and NY.

#stylepost - A Dose of Emma Leth

Emma Leth
Model + blogger + DJ + actress = lethal combination



Co-writer of Semi Femi and Zara model, Emma Leth doesn't half know how to multi-task.
 Repping a flawless style and squinting eyes that would make any woman want to bin their mascara almost instantly.

Queen of bare eyes, bronzed cheeks and untamed hair... what's not to like?

#stylepost - Long Live the Bomber

Come Winter, I can never be more excited to throw on a chunky coat, a thick knit jumper and drown myself in an oversized scarf.
Although, I do admit that Cordoba is getting colder and colder, day by day, it's still nothing compared to the Manchester temperatures that I'm used to. A leather jacket is perfect for the sunny days but when night-time falls my teeth begin chattering. That said, it's impossible to get by with my favourite thick knit, navy coat, especially on my daily cycles to work.
This is why the return of the bomber jacket has been my lifeline so far this Winter. Light and stylish enough for the days and padded enough to throw on after a few vinos down at our local bar.

The best thing is, you can bag yourself a bomber no matter what your budget... from Zara's TRF collection to Mango, H&M to Emma Cook... they're all at it.

#stylepost - MANGO A/W13 Collection Picks

A small post to show the best picks from Mango's A/W collection, along with a few designer look-a-like steals.

For me, the key reasons to shop at Mango are the facts that the clothes are always amazing quality, overall, it's reasonably priced and unlike other high street shops, you rarely have the problem of bumping into others wearing your outfit.

Each item is versatile and can be worn a ton of times without it being spotted as 'that shirt she wore the other day.' This is my 'payday wishlist' that I'll slowly be working through this October.

Beaded Wrap Miniskirt (£59.99)

Below is the ISABEL MARANT Silver Preson Embroidered Georgette Skirt for a tear jerking £1200

Adjustable waist IKAT dress (£34.99)

Metallic Jacquard Bomber Jacket (£59.99)

Satin Jacquard Bomber Jacket (£59.99)

Cowboy Suede Ankle Boots (£69.99)

Maxi Buckle Wide Belt (£34.99)

Velvet Ribbon Wool Fedora (£29.99)

Metallic Shoulder Bags (£29.99)

#stylepost - Marant for H&M Sneak Peek

So I'm still having trouble, 2 months in advance, deciding if I'm actually going to risk going in-store or just taking my chances online when the Isabel Marant 2013 collection for H&M finally lands. To add to this dilemma, yesterday Stylist magazine made my wait even more difficult when it posted a preview of the collection online reminding me just why I'm so excited.

From classic Parisian-chic chunky knits (£79.99) to a bomber jacket to die for (£79.99), it looks like Marant has done us proud by sticking to her trademark bohemian style with her signature rock and roll twist. It's got tassels, prints and that perfect combination of maroon and royal blue that we've all been waiting for.  

Even the leather pants (£179.99) are tempting, although I'm not too sure that my thighs would agree...
