The First Hello

Image
By
Spotted outside a gallery in London Soho last weekend (proudly lugging round purchases from the Isabel Marant H&M collection). 
This photo captures/rounds me up perfectly- I love my fashion and I love art. Art galleries are like my guilty pleasures where I escape to culture infused solitude. It's something I love doing alone (though my brother is also a good partner in crime seeing as he's an artist in the making) because let's face it, it's not for the faint hearted ones really. Art is subjective and can be controversial, do approach with caution! 
Anyway, I'm the PR Girl blogging for Cup of Daisies online on all things fashionable and stylish, luxurious and trendy, and also lifestyle. Cup of Daisies is a Fashion label dedicated to work for a social change by supporting Tenovus, Shelter Cymru, ADRA, Merlin and Noah's Ark Appeal through ethical designer silk scarves. 
I will talk more about these scarves in blogposts to come (hint: they are super unique and each tell a different story behind the print). I'm Cardiff based most times, the above photos were a mini London getaway last week which I enjoy doing every now and then. 
So stay tune for more blogposts to come, hope it's been a nice introductory hello :)

3 of the Hottest Accessory Trends for SS21

By
Just because lockdown restrictions are starting to ease doesn’t mean that you have to go out and buy a brand new outfit. Sure, you want to feel and look good at social events after a year of emotional turmoil. (We get it.) That said, sometimes all it takes is the right accessory to tap into current trends and take your style to the next level. Speaking of, here are 3 of the best accessory trends for Spring/Summer 2021 that would make the perfect addition to your existing wardrobe. Utilitarian Bags Firstly, it’s almost like the fashion industry has accounted for the fact that most of us haven’t needed a handbag in months. By introducing pretty-yet-practical options across the SS21 catwalks , they’re easing us back into the practice of carrying a bag. From Kenzo’s slouchy waist belt, to phone lanyards at Versace, to Dior’s straw grab-and-go versions, the focus is on the smaller, the better.  However, simplified, medium-size bags also did the rounds at Hermès and Prada for those who can’

'Between Bowties & Lady Butterflies'

By
Outfit details of the week: H&M Trend floral crop top purchased from my latest London trip two weeks ago.  Absolutely adore the print on this particular top, the combination of colours are striking yet brings together a blend of sophistication. What makes it super on trend is that it's made out of the scuba material which is super big this season, and if you haven't' noticed, the cropped length has absolutely taken over the runways! What's not to like.  Paired it with my lovely Topshop white thick cotton flared skirt for a clean crisp look. Love the contrast between the prints and clean crisp skirt.  White is the season's new black. These red hot studded kitten heels from Zara have been a good bargain from last season's sale and I've never regretted getting them.  To top it off, I've styled it with one of our very own CUP OF DAISIES scarves, and I knew instantly it had to be the Lady Red scarf. Fun fact: This particular

Art in Fashion I: J.W. Anderson LFW

By
'Art in Fashion' is the next big trend! Inspired by English painter Graham Sutherland, J.W. Anderson's latest "pretty ugly" collection at London Fashion Week (LFW) 2014 offered an artful distortion of construction over unconventional palette. British designer, J.W.Anderson has once again created a collection to challenge the audience's take on art within fashion. Photo: Isidore Montag "In plebeian terms, if "pretty ugly" were a thing, Anderson nailed it. Citing English modern painter Graham Sutherland as a reference point, Anderson appropriated the queasy colour palette of alien green, murky mustards, watery browns, moss and greys from Sutherland's paintings onto his collection. Anderson went further by employing "ugly" fabrics like corduroy, black satin and a two-toned seaweed woven mix as a personal challenge this time. Admittedly, some of these fabrics are among his most abhorred." It is the very juxtaposition
