H&M's Exclusive Conscious Party wear Collection!

Hi Guys!

It's so exciting to know that H&M will be launching their new party wear collection! The range, known as Conscious Exclusive will include pieces for evening parties and will be available for both women and men.
I am really impressed with H&M as we have already seen them make it to the red carpet and Paris Fashion Week. Now they are blowing us away with beautiful evening wears! I am super thrilled at the collection. It looks high end and you would not even believe the prices!! Affordable luxury I call it, similar to Zara! Love it.

Have a look at the women's collection below, provided by Vogue..

Cream blazer, £49.99, and cream trousers, £29.99

Pink embellished dress, £69.99
Pink backless dress, £34.99

Tulle dress, £149.99

Black jumpsuit, £39.99

Cream corset top, £39.99, and cream trousers, £29.99

Yep! I bet your jaw just dropped, look at those prices right !! H&M have certainly stepped it up a notch with their collections but not their prices, lovely!!

Flo takes on the role of Fashion Police - OSCARS 2013

The 85th Academy Oscar awards took place yesterday! And I have been seeing so many pictures and comments of beautiful gowns and not so beautiful gowns. In the world of fashion, the winner of an Oscars statue is the least of our worries. What is worn is most important! Now obviously there are those who stood out and those who played safe and those who, well, didn't quite make the cut!

FLO THE FASHION POLICE!

THE OUTSTANDING

Jennifer Lawrence, Best Actress: Dior Haute Couture

Love the drooped back chain!
This is number 1 for me! It so happens that this was my favourite design from Paris Haute Couture Fashion Week 2013 (look back on to my previous posts) I think the fish tail is just stunning and fits her body shape very well. I think she stood out from the rest. I guess when you know you've been nominated there's a possibility you could win and so you have to look your best. She looked her best and she won, go Miss Lawrence!

Jessica Chastain: Giorgio Armani
Now I think it's fair to say that Miss Chastain is stunning visually but with that gown, wow she looks spectacular. I think the colour and design of the dress compliments her strawberry blonde (I think) hair.

Amy Adams: Oscar de la renta
Who doesn't like dresses from Oscar de la renta?..... any takers?..... that's what I thought. This is beautiful. I love the simple top, ruffled bottom and long tail. Great choice of designer Amy!

Naomi Watts: Giorgio Armani
Naomi opted for this gorgeous sleek and shiny gown. I'm totally in love with top half. She has the perfect neck line to compliment it!

Charlize Theron: Dior Haute Couture
She always impresses me and has an aura of elegance when she walks on that red carpet. Looking dazzling in white, Charlize takes on Dior with a hint of peplum. Yum!

Halle Berry: Versace
This has Versace written all over it. I love the elegance of it and who better to wear it but Miss Halle Berry. She brought some gold sparkle to the red carpet.

PLAYING IT SAFE

Zoe Saldana: Alexis Mabille Couture
Zoe you are stunning but I'm not too sure if the shoes were the best option with that dress. 

Anne Hathaway: Prada
Anne was a little difficult for me to judge. She looked great but I felt it was a little bland and simple for me. 

Jennifer Aniston: Valentino
The average red gown that everyone knows I think! Jennifer could have done a lot better.

Kerry Washington: Miu Miu
An average coral dress. This was very watered down compared to what she wore at the Django Unchained premier (Giles). I actually thought she would be amongst the outstanding. What happened?

BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME

Kristen Stewart: Reem Acra Couture
No no no! Most definitely not impressed. She looks dull! And facial expressions aren't helping either! Looked on the Vogue website and here are a few comments people made:-

"I can't even comment on KStew after last night. She was so stoned I barely even noticed her limp or disheveled hair or what she was wearing. It was ridiculous."

"Someone buy her a brush."

"awkward as ever."

Mmmm not very good comments 

Helen Hunt: H&M
Not sure about this, I really am not sure. Her dress looks a little creased too. Iron anyone?
Okay I do like the way she rocked a high street label that I purchase from but...hmmm. Look at the comments below from Vogue.co.uk:

"Her desire to stand out by wearing the high street brand turned out badly: the dress looks cheap and rumpled."

"but the dress is so unflattering and badly tailored!"

"If it wasn't for it being all wrinkled it would have been ok. Cheap will always look cheap unfortunately."

Helena Bonham Carter: Vivienne Westwood

I guess this is her right? Helena dresses how she is right? But unfortunately it's not nice. Love Vivienne Westwood's dresses, but unsure if this should have been chosen for the OSCARS. A comment below from Vogue.co.uk

"She looks like she is still in Les Miserable." (this really made me crack up!! haha!)



ITS ZEBRA TIME!

I went for some retail therapy yesterday and thought I would see what the January sales had to offer.

Everywhere I went, all I could see was black and white strpies! I love it!

If you look back on my post (Title below)

WE ARE SPOILT FOR CHOICE! S/S 2013 and Pre-A/W 2013-14 trends!

I mentioned that monochrome stripes were what designers such as Marc Jacobs and Stella McCartney had to offer us this season. Well, high street brands such as Zara, Vera Moda and H&M have certainly taken this trend on board!

Have a look at what I found!


STRIPED BLAZER
Zara



STRIPED BLOUSE WITH POCKET
Zara



STRIPED WRAP BLOUSE
Zara



H&M


Vera Moda

I decided to purchase a cute top with a gold zip at the back from Vera Moda! and threw in a pair of really large glam earrings! hehe :-) I will post up a full picture of me wearing this once I find somewhere to wear it to!

Flo's Favorite!

Balmain
I think this whole outfit is just fantastic. Wearing this would give me life! I think that the top makes the whole piece. It's different, daring and bold. Go Balmain!

What's your mono-destiny! let me know what you buy!

Until next post! xoxo
