Motel Rocks Intern Q&A!

As part of my internship at motel I often put together blog posts and this week Motel did a Q&A with me about what's hot at Motel this Christmas, seeing as I'm lucky enough to see it all hands on! So I thought I'd share it with you lovely lot on here! I found it really fun putting together my favourite bits so I hope you enjoy this post! Sorry for the litlle pictures, they looked too pixely if I blew them up to the normal size one here!

1) What are you party picks of the season?

I'm a huge fan of off the shoulder so I'm totally in love with the DeloriousBodycon Dress, its something I'll be wearing to the Christmas office 'do! On Christmas day I love to dress up so TheTera Dress is my pick for then, its so fabulously festive! One of my ultimate faves this season is also the MedusaFaux Leather Dress, the snowy white is so seasonal and the studs give it such a great edge- my NYE dress sorted!

2) What is your favourite party trend?

Wonderland! Definitely wonderland, I absolutely adore the ItalinoPrint. My favourite pieces would have to be the HillyHigh Waist Hot Pant (after seeing them on Carmen Electra!) and the aptly named LucianaDress.

3) How would you create a more laid back look for this season?

I would start with some statement jeans, TheStriped Jordans are always a classic. I usually pair high-waisted things with a crop, and as its winter I would go for the long-sleeved Bonniewith Sequin Pow, its my fave top in at the moment! To keep me warm outside I'd wear the Suzie Q, my all time fave Faux-Leather Jacket.

4) What would you wear with the Spandangle Knicker Short?

They're the party shorts of the season, I'd pair them with the Linda Mesh Crop - the cross studs add a touch of goth glam, the JCLitas in Multi-Coloured Glitter for even more sparkle and the GogoPhilip Lion Charm Necklace. I think this would be quite the show-stopping outfit!

5) Your ultimate favourite dress from the collection?

TheBow Lace Bodice Dress, I wore it for the Motel Rocks Blogger's Christmas Party! The bodice is a perfect fit and looks great combined with the pleated skirt. I love the lace detail on the bodice, its the prettiest party piece!

So on Monday night I had a fabulous time helping out with the Motel Rocks Christmas Bloggers party! It was a great night with a peek at the new Christmas collection, hair by Lee Stafford, make-up by My Face Cosmetics, lashes by Eylure all combined with many tasty cocktails and lots of picture-taking. I was given the impromptu job of interviewing a few of the bloggers for the party video which was so much fun! I really surprised myself seeing as I'm usually quite nervous about those sorts of things but I absolutely loved it. I wore the Bow Dress which is new in at Motel at the moment which I love love love! Its such a nice fit and something cute to wear for the party season. My camera's memory card decided to break right at the beginning of the night so I've nabbed these off the Motel Facebook! All in all it was a super-fun night and I look forward to a next one!

Hiya everyone :) hope you're all having a good week so far. Just a quick outfit post seeing as its been forever since I last did one. I went on a little Primark spree recently and picked up these amazing jeans for only a fiver! I've been after a nice new pair of trousers for the A/W so with that price tag I couldn't resist. One other thing I desperately need is a new winter coat! I've been lusting after the tartan one in River Island with PU sleeves and a fur collar but it's a little out of my price range, so at the moment I'm just wearing the hell out of my Zara jacket! I've seen recently some lovely ladies pairing tees on top of long-sleeved shirts, I think it's such a fresh look for the A/W so thought I'd have a go by firstly starting with a mesh tee for a more subtle take and not to take attention away from my snazzy new jeans haha. I cracked out my Lita's for the first time in a while as I think they set off the outfit quite nicely! Until next time xo

Hiya guys! I've been super super busy with work these past couple of weeks and my poor blog is suffering! I apologise for my lack of posting and will try and get a bit more on top of everything this week! For now I thought I'd give you all a little update with my first Instagram diary post. As you can see I'm super in love with my Motel Rocks Diana top, literally cannot stop wearing it! Its perfect for keeping you a little warmer with the long sleeves and looks great with anything high-waisted... Like my new maxi skirt! Some of you may know that my mum owns a beauty salon and boutique in Bristol called I Candy, and I often work in there. I've had my eye on the skirt for quite a while but never actually tried it on until a couple of days ago then decided I had to have it! I expect I'll be doing a full outfit post with it soon, and I'll show you the online shop which is soon to be up and running, it'll be full of quirky little unique bits of clothing and gifts. I'm also thinking about getting my hair high-lighted again, getting a bit bored of my ombre/roots-I-let-grow-out, looking back at older photo's of me I think it suits me better to have it lighter around my face, what do you guys think? Hope you're all well, I'll hopefully have an outfit post with you by the end of the week! <3

Tigress Reign Ada Zanditon SS13

 Ada Zanditon Spring/Summer 2013 collection

TIGRESS REIGN

Hi everyone! Sorry for my lack of posting the past week, but I have a little treat for you guys today! If you've been following by blog for the last couple of months you'll know that I got the chance to go to London Fashion Week courtesy of super-amazing designer Ada Zanditon and Easy Jet Holidays. As well as getting up close and personal with the beautiful garments we also got the chance to watch several films from each of the designers and this is Ada Zanditon's film, shot in Cyprus. It's an amazing film to watch and a perfect little warm-me-up for those of you feeling the winter cold at the moment! I'm sure you'll enjoy it as much as I did, let me know what you think!

Summer Rayne Oakes plays the Tigress, and the unstoppable Hunter is Yrsa Daley-Ward. While the Tigress is living freely and unbound climbing on ancient ruins, hanging out in dive bars, and racing quad bikes in the desert the Hunter is in hot pursuit, observing from a distance, tracking her every move, with a golden gun.

What will happen when the two warrior women finally meet?

Whilst researching the behavior of Tigers and Tigress’, Ada Zanditon was struck by the comparison between the Tigress and the women in films such as Kill Bill, Thelma & Louise, Deathproof & Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! The Tigress embodies beauty, elegance and ferocity in equal measure. A deadly combination of intense allure, bone crushing strength and the undeniable confidence of the queen of her realm, the film Tigress Reign explores a subversive narrative between The Hunter & The Tigress. Inspired by the boundless majesty of the Tiger, Ada Zanditon has created a sensual collection of elegant sculptural ready to wear for the warrior queen within us all. The heroine of the story is the Tigress, beautiful and wild, yet exquisitely glamorous, she is the epitome of the Ada Zanditon woman. Zanditon’s signature looks abound in this collection of regal dresses, billowing separates and sharply tailored jackets.
