Steal Her Style

For Steal Her Style Florals I have decided to go with not one, not two but 5 gorgeous girlies. The Saturdays. The fabulous five are fast becoming style icons not just for teeny boppers but also for girls like myself who are wanting to emulate Styles Star's outfit choices but don't have the money to do so on many occasion. The girlband made up of Irish Cailin Una Healy and the other 4 beauties, Frankie Sandford, Rochelle Wiseman, Vanessa White and Mollie King are constantly being snapped with fabulous daily style but wearing outfits from achievable brands such as Lipsy, Topshop, Miss Selfridge, River Island and online hot spots like Asos, Missguided and OwntheRunway. So here are the outfits I've chosen. Trust me it was so hard to pick because these girls love their florals, everything they wear looks great and everything they wear sells out.

I love all of these outfits for different reasons but none more so than the fact they are totally achievable. Check this out
Frankie

Frankie is rocking this beautiful dress with a bag which I have searched and searched for but can't for the life of me find. Her shoes are topshop which are sold out, my alternatives are from River Island and her glasses are Rayban 3025 Aviators. Go to owntherunway for this gorgeous cream floral lace dress.

Mollie

 Mollie is wearing another owntherunway find, the sleeveless floral blouse. She has teamed this with Mango tiny denim shorts which are available from Asos. Her sandals are Aldo but again are sold out but I've found a similar alternative. Her bag is Reiss but another sold out item, the one I picked is from Missguided.co.uk. The Glasses are the Ray Ban 3016

Una 

Una is wearing this fab Lipsy playsuit which luckily is still available. She teamed it with a pair of gorgeous white heels with black trimming from River Island which are again no longer available but here's my alternative. She accessorized with these sunglasses from Day 22, the label Katie Price is involved with.

Vanessa

The gorgeous Vanessa is wearing a dress from Topshop which is not available but my choice from Forever 21 is, Sleeveless Levi Jacket (shown), French Connection Espadrille Wedges, which are on Sale now, even better. Alll accessoriezed with an Alexander Wang bag and Gucci sunglasses. A tad expensive again so my choices to Steal her Style are this bowler Marc B bag available from Topshop and these Asos Aviators.

Rochelle

Rochelle is wearing an Owntherunway jumpsuit, which comes in 3 colours and has teamed this with a Muubaa Leather Jacket, which is slightly expensive so I've opted for a more affordable one from Miss Selfridge. She is also rocking the Mulberry Bayswater Bag with what I think are her Jeffrey Campbell Tick Stud shoes, but I can't be sure, however my alternatives are from Missguided.co.uk for the shoes and the Mischa Barton line for the bag, available at Asos.
Do you like the Saturday's style. Have any of you ever bought anything from Missguided.co.uk or Owntherunway.com? It all looks so cute and I'm dying to put in an order.

Monday MUST HAVE

We're officially in Summer, the weather is warmer and the feet are being bared so for this week's Monday MUST HAVE I am going to focus on The Tan Flat Sandal. Definitely a staple piece that should be in every woman's wardrobe. It's the go to sandal that matches pretty much everything. They look fab, they're ultra stylish and completely timeless which means that if you decide to invest, you will get your moneys worth. Think price per wear on this one. If you wear one pair of 200 Euro sandals 3 times a week for 4 months a year over the course of 5 years, that works out pretty much the same price as wearing a Penneys sandal for 6 weeks that you then have to dump. That's my justification anyway.
When the celebs aren't rocking the sky highs or the perfect Louboutins you can almost guarantee that 9 times out of 10 they're rocking the tan sandal.

So here are my picks for the the PERFECT Tan Leather Sandal.

Today:

Asos 12.82                                                        Asos 15.38

Pay Day:

Top Aldo £35, Middle Free People 54.55 Bottom Tkees $44

Some Day:

Top: Pelle Moda $130, Bottom: Tory Burch $225

 How gorgeous are those Tory Burch Sandals. J'adore. Completely in a state of LOVE, WANT, NEED!! The chances of me being able to afford these is very slim however I can get the Celebrity Style with these fabulous TKEES Sandals.

These are the celebrities choice but are totally affordable for the masses.

See above in the Pay Day section. TKEES call themselves "Cosmetics For Your Feet".

All the Sandals are placed into sections which are named after various types of cosmetics, for example these TKEES that I have featured in the Beachbum colour are in the Foundation Section, based on skin tones. They also have liners, highlighters, shadows, lipsticks, blushes, glosses, creams and polishes. Fab. I mean seriously, for somebody who loves cosmetics and is a makeup artist who just happens to be slightly obsessed with shoes, this for me is PERFECTION

I love, love, love this idea. It's super cute and they literally have ensured that they have covered every colour you should desire. Check them out on their website or some of my favourite online celebrity style sites Singer22 and Boutiquetoyou. I most definitely will be ordering a few pairs and doing some serious dreaming about those Tory Burch sandals. What do ya'll think? Have you already got you staple tan sandal? What do you think of TKEES? Does anyone have any?

Accessorize Florals

When it comes to accessorizing Florals you can literally take it any way you want. Due to the abundance of floral accessories you can go down this route by rocking a floral headband to match your ditsy print or a pair of ditsy printed girly rock chick Dr. Martens with a floral dress. Alternatively you can go down the demure and lady like route and accessorize your floral prints in your clothes in the Ethereal way. Pretty Prints and dainty jewels.
Whichever way is great and won't break any fashion don'ts. That being said, here are my picks of the Floral accessories available.

Aldo

All Asos

River Island except for top 3 on right, Miss Selfridge

Bags and hold alls are a great way to wear florals as accessories especially if your clothes are print free. It takes a little of the trend and they can brighten up any outfit.

Asos

Perfect for Festival Fashion, The Floral headpiece/headband. There are such cute ones available from Penneys for completely affordable prices.

Here are my picks which are available from the usual places.

Florals Highstreet Style

I love love love the highstreet supply of Florals this season. Everything is so pretty, girly and even when something may be a sexy cut it remains innocent and more refined with a dainty little ditsy print. As you have seen from my Trend for the Week Florals and Who's Wearing it posts, Florals are HUGE this season and whatever the clothing piece, Florals are something that are a Summer MUST HAVE. With this weekend here in Ireland being a long awaited party weekend for so many with the Oxegen Festival being held a Floral dress, pair of shorts or possibly a jacket are perfect to rock the festival style. Here are my picks from the highstreet, as always taken from my favourite stop shops.

Another Royal, Ex Ugly Betty and a Wag

So Kate Moss wasn't the only person to get hitched this week. The other Royal Wedding, that of Prince Albert of Monaco and his fiance Charlene Wittstock, a South African ex Olympic Swimmer took place yesterday. This wedding was surrounded by controversy with reports earlier in the week of a runaway bride. Supposedly the bride tried to flee but her passport was confiscated at the airport due to suspicion that Prince Albert fathered a third love child. Whether that was all media speculation and sensationalising a rumour, I don't know. But the wedding went ahead and shut down the streets of Monaco. For a Bride I have to say she didn't look entirely happy. I mean look at Kate Moss, Lily Allen, Lily Aldridge and all the other brides this year, especially Kate Middleton. They were all bursting at the seams with happiness and brimming with their hopes for the future, but there was a sadness in her eyes.

She did look beautiful in the stunning Armani gown which reportedly took 2,500 hours to prepare, of which 700 hours were spent on embroidery alone. The dress is gorgeous but I do think the the off the shoulder cut accentuates her broad swimmers shoulders. She has such a tiny little waist and hips that a more vertical shoulder cut might have looked more flattering.

They said their vows in front of 850 Guests in the courtyard of the Prince's Palace. The guest list was very impressive with Naomi Campbell, Karolina Kurkova, Karl Lagerfeld and Georgio Armani amongst the guests. The Prince's Family were also in attendance with his sisters Princess Caroline and Princess Stephanie with their children, the Bride's family aswell as a number of various other Royals, Heads of States, Actors and Athletes were there to witness the happy day.

'Kilometers' of the platinum-coated thread sewn into 130 meters of off white silk was used along with 40,00 Swarovski Crystals, 20,000 Mother of Pearl Tear Drops and 30,000 Stones in Gold Shades. The train was 5 metres long with 20 metres of silk tulle and took 100 hours to make. WOW!

The couple left the building to a choir singing and the new Princess was pictures wiping away a tear.

Ugly Betty Star America Ferrera married long time boyfriend Ryan Piers Williams last Monday night. She wore the Amsales Christos J'Adore Gown with Fred Leighton Earrings. The strapless, dropped waist gown had a French Corded lace body and tiered pleated tulle skirt. They got married at Vanessa Williams house in Chappaqua New York. I absolutely love, love, love this dress. It is sooooo pretty, romantic and Ethereal

Model Abbey Clancy and Footballer Peter Crouch also got married this week. Following a hectic year of cheating allegations and a new baby they finally made it down the aisle. And doesn't she look amazing. Love the dress, perfectly polished and everything that a model should look like on her wedding day.

The stunning strapless, corseted, drop waist dress was designed by Giles Deacon. The designer told Vogue
"We talked about the dress initially three or four months ago. She wanted a dress that was very flattering; very worked in its detailing; with a big romantic skirt that was cool not prissy. We made the corset base first then tried various skirt shapes and it developed in very organic way.
"She called me when I was in Paris when the dress was delivered - after five fittings - and she was delighted with it. The whole dress took six weeks to make. I thought she looked really herself and gorgeous."

Her signature Tousled hair was teamed with a smokey eye and red nails. I love the look. Very glam

What do you think. Did Princess Charlene come close to Kate Middleton? Did you like America's and Abbey's dresses. Who has worn your favourite dress so far this Wedding Season?
