</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Being a lover of both labels and literacy, I was all too fascinated when I read about this collaboration on Twitter (of all places!) </i><i>Having only heard of the legendary </i><b><i>Shakespeare & Company</i></b><i> through passing, I found it more than essential to make it my priority to find out more. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Located opposite the Notre Dame in Paris, the book store is the hub for book-lovers alike; and being the host to multiple events and presenter of the Paris Literary Prize, it is hardly shocking that the store is such a treasured gem. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>So why did part-time French designer </i><b><i>Olympia Le-Tan</i></b><i> choose this spot as the place to launch her new A/W11 accessories collection? </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>If you are unfamiliar with her previous work, then it may seem like an odd selection, but just a quick browse through her </i><a href="http://www.olympialetan.com/christmas_orders.cfm"><i>website</i></a><i> will alert any untrained eye that this designers focus is on what I would call 'book bags' </i><br />
<i>(NB: this is not an official term, but one that seemed appropriate!). </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j9ZGLWUbKhg/TX59g0WtgbI/AAAAAAAAAEI/oaBlatBzRzM/s1600/2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="293" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j9ZGLWUbKhg/TX59g0WtgbI/AAAAAAAAAEI/oaBlatBzRzM/s400/2.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Named '</i><b><i>Housewive's Choice</i></b><i>', the latest embroidered collection varied slightly from her usual themes of fiction novels such as 'Moby Dick' and 'Lolita'. Instead, the 'Housewive's Choice' bags are themed around cooking books. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>From the images I have managed to preview, the whole collection has a very kitsch feel, verging on 50s stereotypical vintage, which has been a popular trend and is also in keeping with her own personal style.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>I personally think that the whole collaboration is both fun and original, and strays away from the usual cliche and celebrity.

</div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>I spotted this yesterday whilst I was out food shopping and havnt been able to stop thinking about it - and that's not just because I'm a sucker for the Original glaze!</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Fashion is notorious for collaborations. Be it H&M and Lanvin, Armani and Reebok or Gucci and Marc Ronson, a fashion collaboration seems to have been fashionable in itself. And why wouldnt it be? It is a simple and easy solution to give the brand a new edge, appeal to a different audience and drive sales. Perhaps this is what Glamour magazine are aiming to achieve, and albeit, it is certainly an alternative way from the usual etiquete of 10th birthday company celebrations.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>However, I cant help but wonder whether something lies deeper in the meaning. Is it a meaningless publicity stunt, or is it also a message about the magazines ethos?</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Glamour magazine are successful enough to have teamed up with a good choice of designers, brands and products. In fact, had I been asked just now to think of a good partner for them to hook up with, I think I may have indeed gone with the cliche and chosen a makeup brand or clothing label which the magazine publicises a lot or that they think best reflects the 'woman' of their magazine. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>But Krispy Kremes...an interesting choice. A food product at most, and although fashionable, not necessarily the obvious choice. Perhaps, Glamour magazine are trying to defeat the glossy stereotype; the connotations of fashion magazine usually can be summed up in a word: </i><b><u><i>thinspiration</i></u></b><i>. With countless controversies about what lies beneath the pages of print, it is a brave and clever move of Glamour, almost persuading their readers to go out and buy donuts. Eating has become fashionable again. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Thank God for that!</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />

<i>The various shades of whites, ranging from pale peaches to pastel pinks, reflect both the innocence and romanticism about the garments, whilst still being bang on trend and accessible to everyone.<br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Having had a flick through of the press release pictures myself, it appears that simplicity is key; with loose, angelic fits for the women and a mixture of straight-cut tailoring for the men. It is clear from the images that the designers were looking for their ethical message to speak through their clothes, leaving behind the frivolous frills of our fashion society.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Overall, I think that the 'Conscious Collection' looks like it could be roaring success, as it appeals to many different genres - the fashion lover, the global carer, and the penny watcher - dress (above) selling at £29.99. So which ever way you look at it, you're doing something good; both for yourself, and for everyone else. Look good and feel great!</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><i>Possibly a little naive of me, and maybe something which I shouldn't admit on a fashion blog, but I had never heard of </i><b><i>Band of Outsiders</i></b><i> before; and having had their latest collection saved in my images for nearly a week now, I think it's about time that I spread the word.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Seeing as they started out as a menswear brand, I feel a little more at easy with my lack of knowledge. The inspiration and creation behind the label lies in the clever hands of Scott Sternberg, releasing the brand to the world in 2004.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> The more recent womenswear addition to the collection 'girl', has also made an impressive start, whilst the original womens line 'boy' encaptured straight-cut tailoring and fairly monotone colouring, allowing the overall essence of the masculine brand to stay in tact - dare I say, almost like an urbanised 21st Century version of Chanel.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>With a general feel of ease about the clothes in the entire collection, there were elements of both preppy casual and urban chic. Teaming together polo shirts and fur jackets in the 'band' menswear line may seem like a bit of an odd combination, but somehow it worked perfectly, creating a laidback style of its own.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Only 7 years under the belt, but having gained a repitoire with clients such as Kid Cudi, James Marsden and Kirsten Dunst, this brand is definitely one to watch.</i></div><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <i>Seeing as this is meant to be both a fashion and lifestyle blog, maybe it's about time that I actually returned to talking about the former.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>I've gone and picked my four favourite looks from <b>Charlotte Ronson</b>'s latest collection, which she says was inspired by 'dressing down, but in a romantic way'. </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>And I think it does just that.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>With a mixture of chiffons, pastels, darks and denims, the collection covers every aspect of city chic. Reflecting fashions from the nineties, the 'grungy yet feminine' aura about the garments are shown off with a combination of loose fits and tapered waitstlines, making the style look effortless.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Perhaps on a more personal note, the reason why the collection appeals so much to me is because every outfit looks like something that I would pick out for myself. And in true keeping with my own personal style, all the models wore nose rings.</i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br />
