I hope you have all been well and enjoying the sun while its out here in Sydney ! And for those of you who are experiencing a nice warm Summer right now I ENVY YOU !!!

In fact, I envy all of you who are out and about as we speak ! I recently injured my self quite badly… Been a little MIA but it’s okay as I have been operated on and am on my way to recovery.

I actually return back to work tomorrow, which is quite exciting ! – I cannot wait – I was going a little stir crazy !!!!

I want to talk to you all about a GREAT little genius-of-a-thing-called STYLESAINT.

It’s a brilliant new website dedicated to Fashion and Style, “the go to resource for all things fashion” and the gorgeous genius behind it all is the one and only Allison Beal !

Here you can be inspired with thousands of fashion images. You can create Style books, Tear Sheets (fashion images), A whole fashion profile and collage of things that you love in fashion. It is a great way to collect images on different trends, subcultures, and even some of your favourite icons. It’s all things fashion and it’s great !

Below you can see a feature on one of my favourite icons: Alexa Chung !

And guess what… It was inspired by… The Saint Society… ME and a few others too of course ! (See Below)

Creating Stylebooks and adding images and tear Sheets has never been easier, so Why not give StyleSaint a go and let me know if you like it… www.stylesaint.com oh and while you are there why not check out my page, view my style books on trends and style and subscribe to me.

Get on-trend for 2013 !

While high fashion may do well on the start of year catwalks, predicting which will be the key looks to filter down to the high street can be difficult. Surprisingly, popular looks from recent seasons include the Peplum, which exploded onto the high street in 2011 and has not lost any momentum as we passed through 2012. In terms of shoes, creepers and the more elegant creeper style platforms have been massive on the streets as fashion continues to reclaim the sixties via the nineties.

oo la la ! We LOVE peplum !

So what’s going to be big this year?

Let’s find out what the key predictions are for 2013:

Paisley might be the only print to be seen in for 2013. Try a paisley-print cotton sundress for when the weather warms up, or a slick shirt teamed with mannish trousers to work two trends at once.

Don’t panic: if paisley isn’t your thing, you can choose between geometric or floral prints to stay on trend. Fashion icons should be Twiggy and Jean Shrimpton (as well as the women of Mad Men) and look out for citrus colour prints for the ultimate homage to sixties fashion.

Floor-length gowns are going to be big this year and creating an elegant silhouette is going to be key. This season’s dresses have to go all the way down to the ground. Look out for kimono-style gowns for the ultimate in opulence.

Oh my Goth! Goth continues to be influential this year but don’t let it get you down. Colours are black and white, obviously, and choose leather to maximise the 50 Shades of Grey influence.

Let’s go on a space odyssey as all things futuristic and sci-fi enter our collective fashion consciousness. Think metallic, still trending from 2012,Ziggy Stardust, glitter, and try some silver shades for you footwear.
