Creme De La Trend

"Obsessively opposed to the typical"

Monday, February 28

Nosey Parker!

There is nothing I like more than a good ole "here's my house" post but although I like to look at other peoples stuff I don't really want to post pictures of my private space :(
I thought it might be nice to show you a few snapshots of a few of my favourite things though!
I showed you my desk area before and now you can have a look at my dressing table / area!

Harlows House

I bought this ring in the sale at My Wardrobe a few weeks back and I have not had it off since!


Ring House Of Harlow
The stone in the middle is precious and the gold is plated! a bargain at more than half the original price!

I had a few silly guys ask me why I am wearing a coaster on my hand but, you know anyways,

"boys are stupid....throw rocks at them!"

I picked up this cute flower ring also!  I  like that it mixes gold and silver

Ring -Accessorize @ £10.00

New Mood......

Seasons are changing and so is my mood!!
Today I started working on my mood board it was feeling a little dark and moody.
 my favourite trend at the moment is Neon worked with neutrals. I am on the look out for a nice neon tee to wear with my chinos and a bright orange blazer or silk tee for my Dolce flared jeans!!
Brights work so well with my skin colour and neon's make me pop!! I am going to have fun with it so watch this space! ( I am also keeping a little eye on ice cream colours! I think they may be the under dog to watch!! (see lemon sorbet blazer with powder pink champagne fur trim on my board)

Meet me by the Mulberry bush

My very first Mulberry Bayswater!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE
The colour is a high shine cracked bronze, inside it has a delicious dark brown suede -Yummy!!

Perfect for the 1970's glam summer looks (Burnt orange, jewel tones & grown up brights) and bang on with the metallic brushed golds and bronze accessories I have seen at the likes of Gucci & Louis Vuitton.
Also taking me straight into Autumn by the looks of Marc Jacobs AW collection
 (See a sneak peek below) Yay!!

Revealed!!

I am going to be doing a mega update soon! I have been under the weather of late (awwwwwww)

But I seem to be orbiting earth as we speak.......the gift of Mulberry (hint) helped me come winging back!!
I have a lot to update you guys on!!

I have been looking at my fashion twins blog (she has been SUPER busy) running around to private Anya Hindmarsh parties, the Burberry catwalk show etc etc. Anyway she posted an awesome pic of herself and I thought it was the perfect picture for her debut on Creme De La Trend......

So here she is my fashion lover muse and twin....introducing Frida :0)

Beautiful huh!!

pearly queen



While I was in paris I picked up the new Chanel shade pearl drop its super cute and great for the summer. I think I will invest in the black pearl for the foreseeable future as these days don't seem to be getting any sunnier.I had to cut my nails down though, as it didn't look so great on my super long talons

papped in paris


I have a huge post to do about my trip to paris and the LV exhibition but I am a little poorly so I am afraid it will have to wait! While I was stood stuffing my face in a patisserie I was approached by a cute girl who writes a street fashion blog. Her blog is super cute so check it out!!

One to watch - Raoul

Raoul bags. Cute chic and good price points. Singapore based brand Raoul bags are available at Harrods and Matches.
 I hope they will start to do the full collection as they do very sweet clothes as well but so far just the hardware.

Show me the light......

New phone!!! and i am in love love love!!!!!!

Didn't get on with the iPoo and the HTC Desire was a nightmare.......got rid of both and got the new Blackberry Torch.

Great functionality, great size. Love having the option of keys and touch screen.

Only thing i miss is my weather app :( but i think i can download a similar thing for this.

Slick!

Next Outing

So I will be heading down to the museums soon, I wanted to catch the wildlife photography awards at the Natural History Museum and will make a day out of it and visit my favourite museum the V&A.

I saw this exhibition advertised and would love to go and see it. I will be actively trying to expand my creative mind in 2011.

Its pretty expanded at the moment but this year I want to get it all down and focus on channeling it some how......

Anyway this exhibition looks great! Catch it if you can! If not i will try and take some pics for you guys

GUCCI S/S

Who doesn't love this campaign?!

This got me so so excited for the summer! First campaign that gave me goose bumps in 2011!!
Colours are so warm and rich. 
Jewel tones are my favourite sort of colours because they are essentially primary but with so much more depth. 
Feast your eyes on these beauties.... and imagine.......

YUMMY!!!!

Shattered!

Happy new year my lovers!!

Hope everyone enjoyed their holidays! I certainly did!!! Spent time making new friends and spending time with my loved ones.

Creme De La Trend has been on my  mind for the new year! and is currently undergoing an overhaul in my crazay mind!

Watch this space!!

Wanted to do a post on this polish quickly! I have been super busy of late but will soon be back on track. 

I am in search of a new photographer  to make my life a little easier with posting what I am wearing on a daily basis 

I think taking pics at work during the day is getting a bit cheeky :)

Anyway just bought this top coat from Katy Perry's new range.

I bought the top coat to go with my existing HUGE collection of colours but for the summer the dark pink base coat is catching my eye too.

Its a great concept you paint your nails what ever colour you choose then paint the black top coat on (when your base coat is completely dry) it drys and cracks into a pattern that is completely individual (and looks a bit like animal print) Can't wait to experiment!!

Not sure about the campaign but, well, she's a cutie and the concept is great :) I am super excited about the coming seasons seeing lots of colours which sit very well with me indeed for S/S 11.
