Royally Stylish: Jaeger Design Uniforms for the Royal Staff

Prince William and Princess Kate may be the most stylish royals on the planet, and with them set to move into Kensington palace, they're also going to have the most stylish staff.

British heritage label Jaeger have been recruited to design the uniforms for the palaces's entire front of house staff in a £12 million renovation. The uniforms will be for around 50 staff members, front of house, welcomers and gift shop staff and the designs will be unveiled in March 2012.

How exciting is that? We've got the most fashionable royalty around it seems! I wonder if princess Kate had anything to do with the design choice!

Jaeger's Design Director Stuart Stockdale created the ensembles with the help of curator Deirdre Murphy and an amazing archive of over 10,000 wardrobe pieces worn by royals! This is a collection of items that date from the 17th century to present day, which is a whoooooole lot of style inspiration.

I can't wait to see the final designs in the flesh! What do you think? Will you be heading to Kensington palace to check out the most stylish front of house staff on the planet? Enjoy x

Ashish and Jaeger SS12 Shows

I just wanted to drop a post on a couple of my favourite collections so far from London Fashion Week for SS12. I'm not normally that excited about the spring/summer collections, because I am so majorly obsessed with autumn/winter collections. I prefer the designs, materials, trends blah blah blah...but a couple of SS12 collections so far have really caught my eye and are making me crave my next summer holiday already!

First up is Jaeger, where the girly side of me squealed in delight! Broderie Anglaise was everywhere - cut-out details, embroidery and doily like patterns, sheer fabrics and soft feminine colours...sigh...just gorgeous! I envision Princess Kate buying out the whole collection! Front row spots included Pixie Lott, Brix Start and Olivia Palermo...nice!

Second, is favourite for the more fashion adventurous, Ashish. This collection took florals to a whole other level!! Bright, graphic and bold floral prints on dresses, shirts, blazers and skirts...and even bunches of flowers on chunky black biker boots. Mixing the girly with the masculine is always a favourite look of mine. I love this collection and will definitely be using is as my SS12 inspiration - I just hope the high street pick up on it!
