The newly launched and super cool online magazine TStylesU is looking really good and we recommend checking it out. The brain child of stylist to the stars Faye Adams and style director Zadrian Smith, TSTYLESU.com is a fashion portal full of style advice, celebrity get the looks and stunning main fashion shoots. In their first issue they featured the hot pink Evelyn bag from Safor, in a ‘Spotlight on Colour’ photoshoot. This week Azuni jewellery was featured in a style advice tip on how to wear tangerine! Not the easiest colour to pull off but Faye and her team seem to have managed it!

If you are looking for a chic work bag, which fits an ipad and all your stuff, then the Mimi Berry lap top bag is the solution.  Vogue’s Tilly Macalister-Smith chose this one for her busy fashion week schedule, which we think finishes off her look perfectly.

Fairtrade Fortnight starts today and aims to remind us that buying fairly can improve living standards and save lives across the world. We have been working with the ethical womenswear brand Beaumont Organic for two seasons now.  The designer behind it, Hannah Beaumont wanted to create a fashion collection of easy to wear pieces, that are both on trend, but also completely ethically sources, using 100% organic materials.  She launched her collection in 2008, and has already won awards, including ‘The Best Textile Product’ at the Natural and Organic Awards.  

‘Fair-trade fortnight is an invaluable step towards educating consumers about the products they buy and how to shop. The more knowledgeable we are the more we will look to buy from ethical companies like Beaumont Organic, which offers affordable luxury that aims to inspire women’s fashionable pallet, whilst also fulfilling a desire to give a little back to the world we live in.’ – Hannah Beaumont

We are big fans of her white shirt collection, and easy to wear knits – and the good news is her new SS12 collections are now available online!

We have been struck by the power of Twitter, following the controversy created by the Tatty Devine ‘Can you spot the difference?’ blog post last week.  This post showed pictures of some jewellery bought last week from Claire’s Accessories, which look very similar to some of Tatty Devine’s classic designs.  Support for Tatty Devine was instant,  via Twitter, and Facebook, and it was only a matter of hours before the story was being discussed on the BBC, The Guardian, Metro to name just a few.  It even got to the point when it was trending on Twitter.  Now the Americans are talking about it too with US Magazine JCK and Huffington Post posting stories.  …

It came as a lovely surprise when our old intern Robyn Munson, whilst freelancing at Instyle recently, did a fabulous blog post on the Tatty Devine pop up workshop in Selfridges. Having set up their own laser cutting machine to make their name necklaces on the spot, the stand become a massive success. Robyn got her own name made up in a sequence of styles and colours and has since had a flurry of compliments which is what we like to here! Although the pop up is now finished Tatty are still making their iconic name necklaces from their studio in East London. Order yours now from www.tattydevine.com . If branding your name across your chest isn’t your bag then why not get your favourite person’s name or most used word? OMG and Reem have become rather popular of late…

X Factor winner and ultra glam pop starlet Alexandra Burke was looking gorgeous at the Brits last night – and we particularly loved her diamond ring by Lucie Campbell. If you haven’t discovered the Lucie Campbell shop on Bond Street yet, we really recommend a visit (it’s just next-door to Jimmy Choo). 

It is one of the few remaining family run jewellers on Bond Street, so offers a really friendly and helpful service, plus has the most gorgeous array of diamonds!  They design and make everything in house, so the craftsmanship is exquisite and prices are very competitive.   

Alex was wearing the flower cluster ring which also comes in yellow gold and can be bought from their Bond Street store or from their website www.luciecampbell.com.
