Best of the Guest

Oh, it is Best of the Guest time, and since we are fashion bloggers, trapped in a wedding bloggers brain, trapped in a design bloggers body – apart from the massive confusion that we have over our identity – this is post is one of our favourite posts of the week!

So, today we love pattern and it seems perfect timing for the rather bomb.com Topshop capsule collection from Mary Katrantzou it is AWESOME-TOWN! Actually AWESOME-METROPOLIS would be a far better description.

Man oh man are we loving these since, however we really couldn’t pick a fave from her new  collection, we’ll have to hand this fashionista’s ‘Sophie’s choice’ over to you. Here’s a little something-something for your viewing pleasure!

And in the accessories department we are loving these shoes from Ted Baker, and this cuff from Made, however – if you have a cuff on each wrist you can pretend you’re Wonder Woman,  but with better taste in jewellery, just don’t attempt to find out if they are bullet proof.

makeup Best of the GuestGiving good Face: So you’re rocking some Mary Katrantzou now, and feeling like a pimp.  So, what are we going to do about make up, well lovers we think a natural look is best in this instance.

You are already visually popping and locking at this point, and if we over do it on the make up you will look like Ronald McDonalds delinquent sibling rather than the amazeballs fashion queen that you are aiming for.

Get your higher makeup learning on here, and yeah you know we love a bit of video, so here you go people.Here. You. Go.

And we’ve got darker skin covered too!

You’d think that we’d go easy on the nails; but much like 4 coats o’ top coat we are going hard.  Although the face is natural, it’s got to be fierce with the talons.  The Clash isn’t just a band lovers it is a style statement.

You’ve got to bring it and we believe you need some Wah Nails in your life.  Check out the Wah Nails blog to see loads of fit nail designs… and there is Wah Nails book coming out soon with loads of tutorials – we can’t wait!!!

Get your hair did: When you were a kid you wanted a pony, well now you are grown have a ponytail instead  (you will never ride a pony called Peaches, and feed her sugar cubes from your hand… let it go!)

 

the present Best of the Guest

Oh yeah, we almost forgot what are you gonna get the happy couple… other than a framed picture of you, as you look so damn beautiful!  A pressie as quirky as your outfit – we adore this Sewing Machine Teapot by Carters, cop one here at Selfridges.

Tree of Love

Tree of Love

Birdies, sitting in the tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, we have most certainly got a whole load of love for the ‘Tree of Love’ this beautiful piece is created by the rather talented Victoria Scott.

This special love edition is also a limited edition bad boy with only 25 ever having being made, printed on archival paper.  That is a rather awesome portion of delicious present and it is Valentine’s day perfect!  Love it! Potentially the perfect wedding present we think so!
