I finally find 5 minutes of my time to review an exciting and fun mini-collection which was released some days ago: Solange Azagury-Partridge for Amazon!
If you don’t know who Solange is - I’m not talking about Beyonce’s sister - just google her name and take a look at some of her work, which have become extremely successful among celebrities - just to name a few, Katy Perry and Sarah Jessica Parker have fallen in love with her work.
Her aesthetic is all about colour and fun, her work have the ingenuity of a child and she doesn’t really use precious metals and stones - which, of course, doesn’t mean you’re going to pay less for her jewels.
This time she designer a capsule collection of five pieces, all pendants, for amazon.co.uk . How cute are they? You have an eye, a rainbow, a sun, a flaming heart and red lips.
My favourite ones are absolutely the rainbow and the sunshine. while I don’t understand the flaming heart, at the beginning I thought it was a thorn-crowned heart :s Each pendant comes with a chain in oxidised silver (nothing special really, I also think the chain is really ugly, but in general it goes with the simplicity of it all) and they are all lacquered by hand (made in London, folks!).
But the nicest thing about them in my opinion is that each pendant has a specific meaning: the sun, for example, helps bringing brightness to your day; the flaming heart is, of course, LOVE; the hot lips (predictable again) wishes you never-ending kisses; the eye is the most talisman-like, being like the ‘entrance’ to your soul and defending the person that wears it against evil; the rainbow, which is my favourite among all, is of course the most boring (-.-) and represents colour therapy.
If you want to have one of them, or if you maybe think it can be a good idea for a Christmas gift, you have time just until Christmas to buy it only on amazon.co.uk for £480 ($680 - it’s so expensiiiive!). But be quick: there are only 5 pieces left for the eye and the hot lips (but again, the best ones are the sun and the rainbow :3).
Stay tuned because something juicy is coming - a little hint? Louis Vuitton monogram in Milan :P

This was another great and exciting week for fashion, with cruise shows busying fashion experts’ schedules and announcement of new collections and collabs :D
Of course the most important news of the last days was Christian Dior 2016 Resort collection, presented in Cannes - where it’s currently held the Cannes Festival, and you can be sure I’ll post a review of the best and worst dressed of the event when it finishes on May 24th - at Le Palais Bulle, Pierre Cardin’s architecturally extravagant house.
And architecture was not a secondary thought in Raf Simons’s design process this time. First, fabrics: they varied from boldly coloured tartans to mesh and metallic looking see-through textiles giving texture and structure to the outfits. Shapes were undoubtedly solid-looking, with raglan sleeves giving a sort of armour-like allure which is maybe not usual Dior, but it was anyway credible for its pairing with very thin waistlines, V-necks and pleated skirts. Colours were really subtle, apart from fresh brushed of orange and blue - it reminded me of Rauschenberg’s beds colour palette - or repeated pattern of pseudo-flowers taking you back to the art nouveau era.
Among the new collections which have already been released in stores there’s Lulu Kennedy for Marks & Spencer: the capsule is definitely nailing it - I’ve noticed most of the fashion websites I follow are talking about it - and we all know that this year you can’t really do wrong when you go all the way for the boho chic style. Even if I think that in general it’s going to read really cheap in a couple of months - most of the pieces are really too obvious in my opinion - there are some cute things, like the little purse you can see in the photo above - but I would do without the beads.
It’s become a cult for fashion lovers and it’s definitely one of the fashion events we all wait for every year: the collab collections by H&M. This year the luxury brand which is going to design for the low-cost retail giant is Balmain with its creative director Olivier Rousteing. I will be honest, I don’t really follow Balmain’s creations, I’m not a super fan of the brand, but of course, it’s always interesting to see what designers from deluxe brands create for H&M. From what I see in the promotional photos released with the announcement - photos featuring two of the hottest models of the moment, Jourdan Dunn and Kendall Jenner, nice marketing strategy - I would probably like this edgy look - and isn’t the folding skirt that Jourdan is wearing a reproduction of a skirt I’ve seen in one of Balmain’s latest collections? Let’s wait for November to see more.
Another nice collection which I’ve heard about this week is the eyewear collab by jewellery designer Nicholas King and eyewear brand London Retro. All the profits will go to Orbis, a charity which operates in the world’s most troubled zones to help people with blinding conditions. Fashion for a good cause, always something I love!
I know all of you already know about this - when it comes to things having to do with Rihanna the news go viral instantaneously. Our ‘favourite’ singer - no, she’s not my favourite singer at all, but how can’t you love her when she’s always first row in every fashion event with extravagant and absurd outfits? - has been chosen by Dior for the new campaign ‘Dior Secret Garden IV’, filmed in Versailles. Stunning setting and view, I even think the clothes they chose for her fit her personality. Unfortunately I thought she is really strange looking when walking - those hip-moving is too exaggerated not to be parodied by the whole Internet - and running - can’t she run in heels? This is a must for all fashion bitches like her! No, I’m sorry RiRi, this was not enough for me.

Beyond Fabric - Style #01
This was the first style I began working on. Inspired by a pair of vintage military trousers I bought a few years back, it features a semi-wide leg and triple pleated front. The expressive 5cm cuffs allow for better draping while adding a bit of flare.
Especially love the details on the pleats and side pockets. These ones are made from a linen/cotton blend with a very interesting texture. Now available online - here.
