Favourite things

Coat Burberry, jumper H&M, jeans Paige, boots ASOS, bag Miu Miu, sunglasses Prada.

There are quite a few things I couldn't imagine my life without. Like coffee first thing in the morning (don't you just love the smell) and then also throughout the day, colour pink (if pink suddenly disappeared from the colour spectrum, life wouldn't be the same..), cosy jumpers in autumn, sunshine, family, friends, laughter, books, fashion magazines, flowers, candles, the list goes on..

What are some of your favorite things?

 Have a stylish day.

Autumn stories

 Shopping in Zara wearing new Zara gilet, love navy and pink together, pink details, at a launch party with Rosie Fortescue (from Made in Chelsea), gold everything, bundled up in a Missoni scarf, favourite YSL clutch and new(ish) favourite Loubies , when autumn comes I tend to wear a lot more black (adding a pop of pink with a scarf or other accessories), outfit for a lunch with a friend.

 

Outfit I wore to a friend's baby Christening: from the top, laid out and accessories, burgundy is my must have colour during fall, Halloween ready, minimal make up using Nars Multiple, Sunday dinner at Burger and Lobster with my friends, all black everything (love this top that I had for ages from H&M), coffee with friends.

 

Gotta love a pink lipstick ;), I've been living in jeans on my days off, my nude Loubies were the best buy ever (they literally go with everything), Christmassy nails already (I'll be having a lot of fun with this Deborah Lippmann set), jeans again but much more casual outfit, trip to the Natural History museum, sneak peek of my bedroom, glammed up for a Christening, weekendwear (the pink leather has been on serious repeat).

 

Have a stylish day.

Great basics wishlist

Blazer Helmut Lang, leather jacket Muuba, handbag Gucci, jeans J Brand, sunglasses Prada, pumps Jimmy Choo, wrap dress Diane von Furstenberg

This year I decided to stick to quality over quantity and invest more in good quality basics. I've realised time and time again that I get much more wear out of stuff I spend a bit more on. That's not to say you can't buy great items on high street (Zara, H&M and ASOS being the winners), but sometimes it's good to invest. Some of these items have been on my wish list for a while.. I've finally purchased Helmut Lang blazer in sales and can't wait to receive it. I've got my eyes on a Muubaa jacket that I'm hoping to buy next pay day. And over the course of the year hopefully I'll add these to my wardrobe too. 
What are your dream buys for this year?

Have a stylish day and a good weekend.

Prada SS 12 campaign

I remember the Prada SS 12 fashion show, like it was yesterday. It was different, it was innovative, it was what Miucciua Prada does best. Now the images have been released for official campaign, which is set around a gas station in a 1950′s inspired shoot photographed by Steven Meisel and it screams perfection. You can just feel the fifties vibe. And could Natasha Poly look any hotter? The other models included are: Meghan Collison, Elise Crombez, Ymre Stiekema, Katryn Kruger and Kati Nescher. What do you think?

The return of the mule

In fashion, some things come and go, some never really leave and become timeless classics and some come back, maybe slightly unexpectedly. Take a mule for example. After years and years of stilettos and highest of highs platforms, this seems sudden. Out of a blue comes a return of shoe that many fear wearing. They don't offer that much support and make noises when walking in them. But it makes sense. With the boom of super feminine clothes and lady-like glamour many styles of shoes may be too harsh. It's nostalgia in many shapes and forms. Don't worry though that sky high pumps will disappear, they are still a big hit. But when the likes of Miuccia Prada (both for Prada and Miu Miu) and Marc Jacobs for Louis Vuitton decide to bring back mules, some changes in footwear are to be expected. And whith the styles they showed, I'm quite excited. Are you? Will you wear mules?
Have a stylish day.

Prada SS 12 at Milan Fashion Week

Italian fashion at its best. Yes, you could say that after the Prada show (I bet many editors and buyers did) and you'd be right. There were few slightly shapeless jackets and coats I didn't like, but let's concentrate on the positives!
I loved the collection! I loved how some outfits were quite simple just accessorised well with some great jewellery and accessories and the overall effect was perfect. I loved that it was full of separates that will just fit easily into your wardrobe and give it a new lease of life. I even loved the cropped tops. Yes ladies! Time to start working on those abs as according to Miuccia, it's time to bare. Sometimes we have to suffer for fashion and in this case it's so worth it.
Also the lady who always comes with something new, gave us cars for new season. Yes you heard right. I'm taking bettings on how many magazines there will be with a car print on cover.
We're only three days into Milan Fashion Week and we've already seen some strong trends. I can't wait to see what Miuccia has in store for Miu Miu and of course the other designers will bring. Make sure to follow me for the best of it all. You can also keep updated on my twitter account ( www.twitter.com/adelastylefile ) and FB page about the latest info.

Masters of Style at Somerset House

As promised last week, I am reporting from the latest exhibition at Somerset House. Masters of Style is a collection of images of world famous Italian fashion brands, looking at their history through past campaigns, editorials etc. For each designer there is a screen showing their AW fashion show, so if you haven't seen the images yet, you can check out what's arriving into the stores about now and in upcoming weeks.
Each image has a little comment from the designers or Colin McDowell, who curated the exhibition. One photo looks better than the other. It gives you a great insight into the brand's history and philosophy. It's so inspiring and well presented. I absolutely loved it! You get a little booklet too, which has a lot of information and is nice addition to my fashion books collection.
Although photography is not allowed, I managed to  sneakily take few pics with my iPhone to give you an idea what to expect. If you get a chance, go check it out as it really is good.
Have a stylish day.

Stylish day out

(image: courtesy of Gucci - from official Somerset House website)

I am very excited because as you may know I love a good exhibition. Going to galleries and museums is one of my favourite pass times. Tomorrow is the opening of a very appealing project: Masters of style: Celebrating the Stories behing Italian Fashion. I love Italy and its fashion and can't wait to check this out next week and of course tell you all about it. The exhibit is looking at defining moments from advertising campaigns of the biggest Italian fashion houses: Armani, Dolce & Gabbana, Ferragamo, Gucci, Missoni and Prada will all showcase a personally hand-picked selection of images from their collections and archives, bringing to life iconic style moments and offering an insight into the passion and influences behind their work. Sounds interesting? Well what are you waiting for! The exhibit runs from tomorrow until 14 August at the wonderful Somerset House. I can't imagine a more stylish day out, especially if you go shopping afterwards :)

Have a stylish day.

Show your heart - with Prada

Yesterday I promised you some LOVEly items with which you might treat yourself and who better to fit the bill than Prada. On Friday I received their Valentine's look book and let me tell you I want the whole collection. It's all very cute with little hearts and um especially tempted to buy the iPhone cover. But whatever takes your fancy. Nothing wrong with showing your heart sometimes.
Have a stylish day.

Coffee table books

I love reading and books and can spend hours in libraries and bookstores. Combine fashion and book and I'm at my most excited. Coffee table books are not only very inspiring and educating, they look great too. There are quite a few coming out this year including Emilio Pucci - due out 25th July.
Here are few suggestions that I believe every fashion fanatic should own, including my favourite Tom Ford - Ten years, showing his years at Gucci and YSL - I'm obsessed!
Have a good day.
