Wrap up for fireworks weekend!

•November 7, 2009 • Leave a Comment

All of a sudden it’s turned all cold on us! Which actually is just what we’ve been waiting for as it gives us a good excuse to bundle up in all the gorgeously cosy items in this winters’ collection.

If you are planning to go out tonight to one of the many Firework displays that are happening then we have some great things to keep you snug whilst still looking good!

American Vintage Knit Polo

Fine Knit Polo neck from American Vintage

7 For All Mankind Roxanne Cords

Roxanne Skinny cords

Wear this lovely lightweight knitted polo with these black Skinny Cords (they keep you nice and cosy from the cold!) from 7 For All Mankind, to keep it simple and chic. Team this with the Ash Sting Boots, which instantly bring the outfit bang on trend. Then it’s time to layer up with the  knitwear!

American Vintage Cardi

Chunky Montana Cardigan

American Vintage Montana Scarf

The chunky Montana Knitwear from American Vintage is ideal if you need to wrap up. The cardigan is so amazingly chunky and cosy that it can be worn in place of a coat and the scarf will just help finish off the look and make sure you are snug as can be! Then all you need is your sparklers and your ready to go!

We have tons more gorgeous Winter woolies on our website- check it out!…..

With all the lovely christmas stock going out onto the shopfloor next week, I’ve been having a sneaky look at what i am fancying for the party season! There are soooo many gorgeous things to choose from, here is just one of my favourite oufits so far!……….

This studded top from blank is amazing on. With its slight cowl neck and hand sewn embellishment detailing it is great over a simple vest top in the evening or can still be worn with a long sleeve tee underneath for a funky daytime look….

Would wear this top with the Paige Skyline Skinny Jeans, as they are a really slim fit but are a four way stretch denim, which makes them really comfortable to wear as well as looking great!

And for the finishing touches ………..

I would choose the Steven Madden Revenu Shoe Boots to complete the look and this gorgeous Heavy Metal Black and RoseGold Toywatch- just because i love it!!!!

If you’re after an ensemble for all the Christmas festivities creeping up on us, make sure to have a look at the website. Lots of new dresses and tops have been added today. This studded waistcoat style top from Blank would look fab with the black Paige leggings. And Antik Batik’s beaded tunic dress from is…well it’s just stunning and I thought it would be a crime against fashion not to share it with you all!

Autumn/Winter trends – how to work ‘em!

•October 27, 2009 • Leave a Comment

As I’m sure you’re all aware – there are a lot of trends doing the rounds this season – shoulder pads, leather, studs, velvet…It can all get a bit much. And while the fashion elite like to tell us what we should be wearing, when it comes to HOW we should be wearing these shapes, materials and embellishments (and I mean practically) they’re a little more tight lipped. So, we’ve come up with an outfit for you that rocks not one, not two, but FOUR of Autumn/Winter’s hottest trends. What’s even better, this look can take you from day to night with a quick show swap!

MiH Marrakesh Jean Kick Flare in Plum

Velvet is making a huge comeback at the moment, and by giving a wardrobe staple a velvet make-over, these MiH Marrakesh kick flare jeans are an easy and practical way to wear the fabric (trend No. 1 – tick!). And in a gorgeous plum, these jeans have the fabric and colour du jour sorted (trend No. 2 – tick!). But if you’re after a more classic look, they also come in fail-safe black. Team with a simple lightweight knit, like this American Vintage Nevada knit to keep you cosy in the cold winter weather. Give it a go tucked in to show off the jeans’ slightly higher waistband, and that waist of yours!

Get more fashion points and give a so-far simple outfit the ‘x’ factor with oversized jewellery. Try Fiona Paxton’s Larne necklace in silver (trend No. 3 – tick!). And last but by no means least, work the trend for tough biker boots with these chain detail ankle boots from Ash (trend No. 4 – tick!) They’ll add a bit of edge to the outfit, and make it very now!

Weekend Style Fix

Fancy something new for the weekend?  WE do!  Especially with all the rain this morning!  The Dressing Room’s Deryane has picked out the following look’s that she will be wearing this weekend – so take some inspiration from her!

Perfect for dinner and drinks out this evening, I will be wearing the fabulous Maje Philomena dress!  I am just loving shoulder pads and the 80’s vibe right now!

I’ll team with with my funky LnA zipper leggings and my favourite Steve Madden Revenu shoe boots.  In fact I am quite excited to tell you that this is one of the outfits I wore for my recent photo shoot with the Daily Mail!!  Watch this space for more details…

Toywatch, Toywatch, Toywatch!

That is the word on everyone’s lips at the moment, or so it would seem. These super stylish plastic wrist watches are the hottest must-have accessory this season, loved by, well…everyone. Even the X-Factor’s gorgeous (we just wish he was a bit older) Lloyd was wearing one of the brighter styles on last weekend’s show. Perhaps he’d been inspired by mentor and style icon Cheryl Cole, who is said to be a massive fan.

And she’s not the only one. Featured in Grazia, Glamour, The Sunday Times Style  magazine (below) and many more in the last few months alone, these colourful time keepers are our new favourite bit of arm candy!

A weekend walk in the park

•October 16, 2009 • Leave a Comment

Now, we’ve been complaining about the cold weather quite a bit (ok, a lot!) this week, but thanks in large part to recent deliveries, we’ve discovered the autumnal climate has a silver lining - it is the perfect time of year to wrap up in your cosiest knits and go for long weekend walks in the park. And The Dressing Room’s Suzy has put together a stylish winter warm outfit for you just in case you’re braving the elements this weekend.

Odd Molly Comix knit

We let you know a couple of days ago about the gorgeous Comix knit (above) in our Odd Molly delivery, and we now have the images to show you just how lovely it really is. Suzy has layered up underneath the colourful cardi with some long sleeved American Vintage Massachussets in purple and teamed it all with Current Elliott leggings in Jet Black (below).

To finish off the look she has tucked the leggings into Ash Magic boots (below), which are sure to keep your toes toastie!

Cosy up in chunky knits

•October 14, 2009 • Leave a Comment

If, like us, you’ve noticed it’s getting rather chilly outside, fear not, we’ve had some gorgeous chunky knits in recently that will keep you cosy AND stylish over the next few months.

Brighten up your winter wardrobe with the  Comix knit from everyone’s favourite Odd Molly. A rainbow of colours feature on this pretty patterned cardi, from on-trend purple and navy to subtle hints of orange and red. With brown leather elbow pads and a brown tie at the waist, it is a fun, contemporary classic.

Their  Subzero wool sweater has a slightly more subdued colour spectrum – cream and brown alongside splashes of pink and orange, but it is just as lovely. With a tassle lined hood it is perfect for our unpredictable climate. They’re both so gorgeous we can’t decide between the two! We’ll be getting pictures of both onto the website asap.

We’ve also had a longer version of the American Vintage Montana knit in (above). Layer American Vintage long sleeved Massachussets underneath to keep really cosy. All look great over skinnies or leggings, and try teaming with a studded belt to be bang on trend.

What to wear tonight…The Dressing Room to the rescue!

Here at The Dressing Room, we certainly don’t need any more convincing about Paige – we have had a bit of style crush on the American denim brand for a while. But just in case you do, here’s a picture of the lovely Miss Minogue wearing Paige denim yet again. Who better to show off the jeans known as the ‘best butt jeans’ in the business?

Paige leggings will be arriving in store very soon, so make sure to pop in before they all go.
