We were so excited to see the Duchess of Cambridge had chosen to wear a beautiful By Malene Birger dress on her tour to Canada! Having previously been sticking to patriotic British designers, it was great to see that she had chosen the Danish designer Malene Birger to wear as well. We think Kate looks beautiful in this elegant Malene Birger dress and nude heels. Its got us thinking, if Malene Birger’s good enough for Kate, its definetly good enough for us!x

My top 3 Sale pieces…

June 22nd, 2011 § 0 comments § permalink

With all the beautiful pieces in our biggest ever Stripes sale I’m finding it tough to pick my top 3! But, after long and hard deliberations here’s whats made my final cut and are coming home with me!

I’ve had my eye on this striking blazer since it first came in and I just can’t resist it any longer. I’m going to be letting the colour and tailoring of this piece do all the talking by simply wearing it with skinnies and a white tee….

By Malene Birger produced this great dress last season and it was an instant hit – lucky for me By Malene Birger has done it again for this season. I can’t wait to wear it on holiday with gladiators and lots bangles!

I must be having a navy moment, as I’m finding it hard to resist anything in this chic colour! This super flattering Vivienne Westwood Beatnik top is just what I’ve been after to wear when that elusive “smart-casual” dress code is called for! With Vivenne Westood’s signature design and tailoring this top makes me feel a million dollars (but for a fraction of the cost!).

Oh Stripes Sale, I do love you….but my purse won’t forgive you!xxx
