FASHION EXCLUSIVE: Is The Cambridge Satchel Company set to collaborate with Vivienne Westwood?

I've always been a little bit in love with the bags from The Cambridge Satchel Company which is why I was excited to find out that a huge designer overhaul could be on the cards for the brand.

Speaking exclusively to me, founder of the brand, Julie Deane, revealed that she is ‘attending meetings’ with queen of fashion, Vivienne Westwood, which could inject the clean cut bags with the element of grunge that Westwood is famous for.

Her own lines of handbags have been complete sell outs in the past and she’s a dab hand with a piece of tartan and a handful of biker studs, so we’re looking forward to seeing what Viv can bring to The Cambridge Satchel Company who have a huge following from celebs such as Fearne Cotton and Alexa Chung.

Vivienne recently worked alongside ASOS to produce a range of ethical bags in wearable tribal prints where each purchase helped impoverished women in Africa, and it seems that fashion brands are still clamouring to get a piece of her.

I'm keeping an eye out for more details so watch this space for more news on the rumoured collaboration!

Marc Jacobs Beauty lands in London!

It's the beauty collection we have been anticipating for months, which is why I was beyond excited to learn that Marc Jacobs Beauty will officially land in stores this summer!

Last week I was granted a sneak peek at the collection which includes a gorgeous array of twelve new lip vinyl’s in colours such as ‘Kissability’, ‘Boom Boom’ and our favourite summer time hue, ‘Heart Shaped.’ What’s more, each gloss is infused with a tingling, plumping formula, essential oils and antioxidants to provide you with irresistibly kissable lips.

Also new to the collection are the six shades of gel eye crayons which glide effortlessly onto eyelids so you’ll have perfectly pretty peepers in seconds. I'm championing the aqua shade ‘Introvert’ as the new go-to colour for A/W14.

The highly coveted set of ‘enamoured’ nail varnishes are already available in store which seek to recreate that nail salon worthy glossy finish without chipping or smudging. I absolutely loved the neon pink shade in ‘Shocking’ which is set to brighten up an otherwise damp summer.

Which products will you be rocking? Let me know @j_kilikita
