My McQueen Moment


I keep seeing these statement Alexander McQueen skull-embellished peep-toe heels everywhere I look. Then as I was walking through Harvey Nichols they popped up yet again... I think this must be a sign that I need them in my life!

Decorated with gold studs and a crystal-embellished skull, these shoes epitomize Alexander McQueen's edgy yet elegant designs. The striking royal-blue is perfect for adding a pop colour and a touch of glamour to your outfit.

Looking through the rest of McQueen's pre collection there are lots of wearable ways to work this colour pop trend through these gorgeous, bright accessories.

McQueen Masterpiece

Thanks to Sarah Burton the Alexander McQueen design house has not only lived on, but also been thrown into the worldwide limelight with the creation of Kate Middleton's wedding dress and the beautiful ivory gown worn by her sister Pippa Middleton.

One of the most stunning pieces to come from the McQueen label recently and a personal favourite of mine, has to be this black satin flower knuckle box clutch that features an amazing gold tone clasp fastening with knuckle ring detail featuring floral accents and a standout skull, just exquisite! 

Priced at £1050 it's not within everyone's price range but we can all appreciate what a work of art it truly is and it's certainly one to go on the wish list!

Met Ball 2011

The 63rd annual Costume Institute Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art took place last night and was in honour of  the late Alexander McQueen.

It's the fashionistas event of the year and the red carpet always boasts the most fabulous ensembles, British designs were particulary prominent this year due to the Alexander McQueen honouring theme.

We've picked out a few of our favourite looks from the event and as usual eveyone was groomed to perfection!
