Sixties Sindy / Black Barbie





We love the current doll mania ...... until the 18th January you can see Sindy in her many Vintage outfits at her Museum of Childhood display. Sindy makes the cutest air-hostess we have ever seen and has some hot 60's vintage style dresses, we love!

Also if you go to Vogue Italias website you can read about the 46 black Barbies that have been up for auction. Hosted by Christies for the Italian Association For Cancer Research, all 46 Barbies featured in Vogue Italia July were recently auctioned in Milan on the 23rd November. Did you know Barbie has been a dentist, a nurse, a pilot, a US president and a zoologist? So she is not just a blond bimbo and much more of a feminist than we first thought!

Idol Style Icon / Janine / Post 1: Blazer Crush


A girl/guy can never go wrong with owning a blazer in their wardrobe! Especially as the blazer is a key trend this winter and will sustain position as everybody’s must-have sought after item through to the summer. The Idol blazer I’m sporting is not just ANY blazer, but a well cut, body hugging, on trend military masterpiece. Giving me a super svelte silhouette, with perfect unique embellishment to wear as casual or corporate, as desired. This blazer is a great alternative, to a regular jacket or coat as it can be teamed with jeans or leggings, or alternatively a dress or skirt. It's shoulder pad and embellishment is very reminiscent of a military style new romantic era, which again can be utilised to dress up or down according to your very needs! This Idol jacket is available at select New Look stores.

J’adore Amber Le Bon




When your mother is an iconic model, Yasmin Le Bon and your father a handsome pop star Simon Le Bon, it's no wonder you will grow up quite the beauty. Amber is no stranger to the modelling industry industry as back-in-the-day her mother brought her, when she was just 20 months old on to the catwalk of a Chanel show! The rising model star muses: "Thanks to Mum and Dad, I was involved in fashion since I was a child. So yeah I think they have has an influence on me" At 5 ft 10 (an inch taller than Yasmin) she looks every inch the mix of fashion and pop royalty. We were over-the-moon to see her on the party circuit wearing our very own Idol-stud-shift dress. This design is a little rock and a little art-deco, hard yet sophisticated......which is what we want to be.

High Heels/Low Price


We would sum up these Idol suede peep-toe platforms with chain detail as bold, bad, with a hint of 70’s rock retro. With the party season approaching everyone needs a glam shoe that is versatile and has some vivaciousness! It’s priced at £45.00, which is an amazing price for such an ultra-hot, ultra-cool party shoe!

Idol Style Icon / Cassandra / Post 4: Sounds Like Style To Me



Music and song writing are my passion and the way I dress can help spark inspiration. This slashed-up t-shirt is cool and comfortable when I'm strumming on my bass. I love the exaggerated shoulders that allow you to play with your silhouette and give your look an edge - even when you're dressing down.

Lourdes Is Now



It was inevitable that Madonna's first child Lourdes was to become a style icon by the time she
hit her teens. Talented as well as gorgeous Madonna was recently quoted as saying that her daughter wants to become an actress and that ‘she also plays piano and she's really into clothes and fashion and style. She can go in any direction'! Lucky star Lourdes recently appeared in Madonna's video for her new single Celebration in a similar outfit to the one her mother wore in 1985!

The thirteen year old, budding style icon was recently featured in Now Magazine walking tall in
her Idol over-sized sequin bag. You can nab your star-light-star-bright bag for just fifty pounds!
