Sparkle like a Star

This week, we welcome our guest feature writer Lesley from Shine Image Consultancy...

Sparkle on like the Star you are

By now, any self-respecting fashion lover will have elbowed their way through the best of the sales & have a forward-thinking eye on Spring Fashions.

Don't worry - we're one step ahead, here to give you the heads-up on savvy Spring style - and heads-up it is.

One trend that is certain to be on the radar for Spring/Summer 08 is the twinkle of stars.

Starting with Kate Moss who lead the fight for the much coveted current season Jaeger blouse £150 see www.jaegeronline.com.

Where she has been, others are sure to follow! Super style icons, Kylie, has also been seen about town in a rather fabulous Yves St Laurent dress with a very heavenly star print.

Chanel have shown the star print dress on their Spring/Summer 08 catwalk and Topshop (www.topshop.com) are currently stocking a gorgeous little starry bow frock at £50 (as seen recently on fashionista Alexa Chung).

Check out the brilliant www.madisonlosangeles.com for a beautiful Sonia Rykiel blouse which is on at the stellar sale price of $147.50 (50% off its original price tag & converting to only £74).

And if you prefer your details a little more subtle, the Sonia Rykiel Star dress on the same website is a gorgeous puff sleeved black number with a large black star motif at the waist - another bargain at the sale price of $292.50. Add some purple opaque tights to this baby and you'll be the star of the show.

Also worth a glance is the beautiful Anna Sui trapeze style sleeveless silk Stars Print top shining in at $108 (a 50% reduction). Great for hiding those New Year bulging waistlines!

The ever fabulous www.shopbop.com has some super accessories on the same starry theme. See the Kenneth Jay Lane Moon and Stars cuff featuring Swarovski crystal detail - $330. And the gorgeous necklace from Shaoo is a steal at $110 .

If scarves are your thing, then Topshop has a really lovely star print silk scarf - a must have at only £10.

So busy girl, why not add some star appeal to your wardrobe and rock the trend like the Superstar you are! The High St will be glistening very soon and will be your time to shine!
