CELEBS DO SS13: IF THE FAIL SAYS NO, WE SAY YES

Posted by Bethan Holt, Fashion Junior at Large

It might be one of the world's most visited websites but we all know that the Daily Fail's fashion eye is skewed to say the least. Today has been a particularly bad episode with pronouncements that certain celebs look really awful and, gawd forbid, are commiting the dreaded fashion faux pas. What the DM don't realise is that said celebs are actually working SS13 vibes before the shows are even over.  What's more, just because they don't have a spray tan and a body con dress doesn't mean it's a "faux pas", duh! We're going out on  limb to say these girls are actually looking pretty awesome and fashion forward- get with the programme Daily Fail!

SJP DOES HI-SHINE

DM says: "The actress took her three children to school in Manhattan on Monday sporting a bizarre jacket that looked like it belonged way back in the Eighties"

We say: Errr, have you seen Burberry's latest collection? Full of magpie enticing metallic shininess.

CHERYL COLE GOES ZIPPY

DM says: "The 29-year-old singer’s cardigan featured an unusual black buckle that clipped around her neck, with a further buckle over her chest, somewhat reminiscent of a strait jacket"

We say: Actually, if there's one thing you need on your outfit next Summer it's zips. Hardware is getting a good outing, especially on jackets at SS13 shows like Chris Kane, Proenza Schouler.

HEIDI KLUM'S BANG-ON HANGOVER

DM says: "Hangover clothes! Heidi Klum throws on dungarees the day after THAT Emmys gown"

We say: Maybe dungarees have had a bad press as the preserve of pregnant art teachers but they're back for SS13 if Phillip Lim, Margaret Howell and House of Holland are anything to go by.

NEXT BIG THING....a bit more Katie Rowland

I've been getting asked more about Katie Rowland, and her Ring Me ring. So here are more details and more gorgeous Rowland jewellery. Oh and she has just delivered her first jewellery collection for Agent Provocateur. Can't wait to see that.

I rather adore the amethyst knuckleduster, (below) of if you prefer there is also smoky quartz one in 18 ct gold plate. Both cost £250 from Katie Rowland.

This is the amethyst one:

And just because inside all of us lurks a Cheryl Cole fan, Katie told me that Mrs Cole had worn the below at the Manchester auditions for X-Factor. Oooooohhh! It costs £460.

AND FINALLY..... In my previous post I failed to mention the price for my favourite Rowland product, the Ring Me ring. So here is the image again.

The Ring Me is available in silver (pictured on the left) from £395 and in18ct gold/black (pictured above right) from £960 - each come boxed with a mini printing kit containing two mini ink pads for your purse. All you need to do is contact Katie so she can make it for you with the words or digits of your choice.



BASTA!
