Not that Olivier Rousteing needs a high street collab to become even more relevant. Not at all, but he prodigy at the reins of Balmain is about to give the high street sexy hot – and enlisted a couple of friends to help him along the way (again, not that he needs that either!).
My plans to create a series of features on more fashionable looks started a long time ago. However, finally getting off the ground took some planning.
The aim of Dani’s Little Book of Fashion is to dissect looks into wearable chunks, that will work for the person carrying it, whatever their personal style.

I say about time! H&M is finally stepping up their beauty game. Sara Wallander, concept designer at H&M Beauty says it will be “fashion for the face”. I salute you and look forward to that!
I always looked at H&M beauty items as a bit of a limp proposition – just to tick the box, more than anything.
Wow, it’s been a long time since a post an outfit entry. Laziness. No other excuse. Oh, wait, there is… I always get so fed up with the winter that towards the end I cannot be bothered with the outfits anymore… it’s half not making an effort and the other half not finding them interesting anymore.
But as the new season begins (to try) to come… well…. fresh outfits are fun.
Here are some from the last few weeks (maybe months!):
Flowery trouser from H&M, black cape from Boohoo, black shoes from Christian Louboutin, handbag from Kate Spade.
The sun is teasing us – it is actually making appearances but the super chill in the air means my body is still in a wintery mood.
However, my mind is saying GO! to spring!
I know, it has been soooo long since I posted an outfit entry. It is not that I’ve been walking around naked or been wearing track suit bottoms day in and day out – it’s more like a mix of lack of time to photograph and boredom with the winter wardrobe!
But now… winds are (I hope they are) changing…. and I feel excited about wardrobes again! Here is my latest selection:
Tomato red backless top from Boohoo, black pencil skirt from H&M, black court shoes from Christian Louboutin (Pigalle), belt and necklace from Primark, rings from Sobral, Primark and H&M. Bracelet tattoo from Paperself.
I am feeling very festive but also very cold… so been a bit lazy with my outfits in the past week or so – not a lot to show!
Here is my latest selection of outfits:
Amazing Autumn Blossom dress from Eucalyptus Clothing (LOVE), belt from Primark. I wore it with black court shoes (not shown) from Christian Louboutin. I will publish a review on this dress alone with more details, as it is soooooo lovely!
I love dressing up, but as the weather becomes colder, I tend to move on to warm and comfy stuff… until I get a little bit used to it and start dressing up again!
I even have an old friend making an appearance again! Here is my pick of what I’ve been wearing lately:
Black jumpsuit from Miss Selfridge, black spiked stiletto from Christian Louboutin (Zappa), necklace and bracelet from H&M, rings from New Look and H&M.
With the new season truly upon us, I’m having to really control myself not to buy everything I see in the shops – so many exciting clothes out there…
With some old and some new, here is my latest pick of outfits I’ve been wearing around London:
Flowery box crop top and skater skirt from H&M, black court shoes from Christian Louboutin, necklace from New Look, rings from Forever 21, Topshop and H&M.
From the gap between posts, you can clearly see I haven’t been as effective as I could on my outfit posts… no, I haven’t been walking around naked (phew), sometimes it is just to do with time to take the pictures, or days I am not that happy with the outfit.
That means, you get my absolute favourites, every time. And you can clearly see I am morphing into cold weather mode. I include one of my fave pieces for autumn, the blanket wrap.
Sequin dress from a shop in the USA – it was a $35 BARGAIN, black courts from Christian Louboutin (Pigalle 100), rings from Sobral and H&M, Naturalash lashes from SalonSystem and MAC’s Lady Danger lipstick.
So Many Lovely Things
