Zoe and Morgan's AW11 Collection

Last night I went to the uber trendy and stylish Dean Street Town House Hotel, to attend the AW11 launch (and sample sale) of ultra cool and rock and roll jewellery range Zoe and Morgan. Upon entering the hotel, we were directed to a bedroom on the first floor, which was packed with fashion folk and friends and family of the jewellery designers.
If you're unfamiliar with the range, Zoe and Morgan was officially launched in 2006, and their pieces have featured in Vogue, Elle, pop and InStyle to name but a few!! They are the jewellery brand of choice for fashion editors and word of mouth has caused a flurry of interest amongst the fashionable celebs out there, fans including; Garance Dore, Alexa Chung, Lilly Donaldson, Emma Watson and Kate Moss to name but a few.
The jewellery ranges from rings and earrings to necklaces and bracelets, and it took all of my strength to not forgo a months mortgage to buy the whole lot!! Skulls are blended with flowers, snakes hold turquoise marbles in their mouths, gold plated eternity snake bangles, rings with tiny stars, each containing a single sapphire, slender chains come adorned with the sweetest pendants - tiny fox cubs, little bear faces, rabbits popping out of hats, anchors, "love" and "magic," fox door knockers and, in their AW11 collection, incredible scarab beetles. There's even a collection for the men folk, so you can look equally cool and rock and roll!
I've put a few of my fave pieces below, and make sure you check the website to have a gander. Prices range from anything from £60-£2,000!
Enjoy x

Fab New T-Shirt and Hoodie Brand!

Now I'm not really a hoodie and t-shirt kinda gal. I love the rock chick look, but I've never quite been able to work it, and, to be honest, the whole "Camden Town" look has never really done it for me. So I was very pleasantly surprised and excited to be introduced to a fab new brand by a fellow fashionista friend of mine.

Dead Heroes are a unisex brand making t-shirts and hoodies inspired by Pop Art, Thrash metal, Skate and Punk culture, and have already been worn by UKs favourite clothes horse Fearne Cotton, as well as a host of cool rock bands. Anything that looks to great art movements and great figures from history (Abe Lincoln for example) for inspiration is doing something right in my books, and the designs are really unique - definitely not something you'll see in Topshop!

One of the people behind the brand is Mike Lewis of Lostprophets, and they have already featured in various publications including NYLON and FRONT and have had photoshoots with top fashion photographers and models.

So, if you feel like trying out a different look this year, have a gander at their website and bring out the inner rock chick in you! Enjoy! x
