It's finally festival time! A whole weekend of slumming it with a group of friends with an endless supply of alcohol and nothing to worry about other than which stage you want to rave at next. All the wild partying and late nights might be fabulous for our moods but they're killer on our feet. The sloppy mud and vast fields means our feet will not be feeling very happy. The reason for camping outdoors, I imagine, is because if everyone stayed in a room together no one would make it till the morning due to the toxic foot smell. Not nice. To save your precious feet from bulging blisters and nasty sores - invest in a pair of wellies. 

The the demure dressers can opt for a chic black geometric patterned pair from Topshop. The subtle design gives the wellies a funky festival feel without being too outrageous - perfect if you don't want to draw too much attention to your un-showered self! The girlie princess can pick up some pretty ankle boot style wellies from USC. The patient shoe has a large nude bow on the front which adds instant Barbie appeal. For the ravers - River Island do a luminous yellow pair of the waterproof boots. They're covered in bird silhouettes which are reminiscent of Kate Moss' Topshop collection circa '10. 


Don't let the thoughts of old farmers trudging through muck put you off - even this player is getting in on the action!

Pretty In Peplum

Hello Sugar Cookies!




Marc by Marc Jacobs, Cynthia Rowley, Giambattista Valli & Giorgio Armani Spring 2012


The peplum certainly packs a punch. The frilled detail adds classic, lady-like glamour to any outfit. The flattering shape creates an instant hourglass silhouette. This design looks stunning with skinny fitted trousers or you can take inspiration from Dior circa’ 1947 and pair it with a slinky pencil skirt.

The peplum is the new minimal so ensure it’s sleek and sculptured and you’re onto a winner.

Team your outfit with some pastel wedges for some day time girlie glamour or killer-black heels to show the world how much of a vintage vixen you are.
