The beautiful January Jones already has shown her presence with Versace by being the face of their accessories but she has managed to inspire the amazing Donatella Versace to create a sunglass collection in her name. Femme and delicate with a vintage glamour twist and boldness, these 2 styles are now available just in time for Spring/Summer 2011 at Sunglass Hut! The January J Collection features metal detailing on the temples to the side and the iconic Versace Medusa detail at the front sides of the frames. 
I am loving the frameless cat-eye look! Vintage turned “modern vintage” ! If you are after a different look this spring/summer, then the January J’s are definitely it! <3This cute and cheeky red frame is also available in tortiseshell, black & a nude peach (Now or Never, Selected Sunglass Hut’s only) - T xo

One of my favourite brands is the iconic British Luxury brand Burberry. From developing outdoor attire in 1880 to being commissioned to the War Office to produce “the trench coat” in 1914 then defining the Burberry “check” as their iconic signature - Burberry today is now a luxury fashion house of attire, accessories and perfume. But I’ll get to the sunglass side later…

David Jones have recently introduced “Burberry Beauty” in Australia - the new make up range, to help bring your inner heritage fashionista to life. I recently tested their foundation with amazing results, a light, silky, natural finish yet completely covers imperfections. Their powders are so sheer, it actually feels like you aren’t wearing any!

Burberry have released a series of YouTube videos to guide you into the world of the Burberry look. You’ve seen their campaign photography, so classic and natural - I’m sure at some point that everyone has stared at the likes of the Burberry women like Emma Watson, Jourdan Dunn and newest face; Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and felt the glow of their faces. Well, now it’s your turn!

The video above is presented by Burberry Beauty Artistic Consultant Wendy Rowe and is so far one of my favourite looks - perfect for those “less is more” days for effortless beauty!

Yesterday I was fortunate to receive a gift wrapped box at work containing this pair of Burberry Sunglasses (promise to show soon!) and a Cisco FLIP - a mini cam-recorder. An envelope contained my invitation to Inner Circle - a fashion web stop curated by Sunglass Hut where only the hottest and most up to date fashion blogs are featured for all your fashion needs!

Today I tested out the FLIP. Amazing quality. It looks like a small mobile phone. I just spent a couple of mins playing around with some editing tools. Can’t wait to make some more.

What would you like to see from my every day world?

Thanks Inner Circle!

Vivienne Westwood + Spring/Summer 2012 = &lt;3Her recent Red Label collection at London Fashion Week 2011 has caught my eyes! Looks like the tailored romance is back, and a touch of prints with burnt and light colours. Soft and flowing materials. Her signature of historical clothing meets modern influence is still true to style - thus remaining fabulous as ever!    Despite fashion first impressions, the story behind the scenes goes a little deeper; the inspiration and launch of this collection is actually &#8220;saving the rainforest&#8221; - Vivienne is a passionate advocate for Cool Earth; an organisation raising awareness about how important it is to preserve existing rain forests and works with communities to protect areas from destruction. The SS2012 Red Label expresses the dynamics of nature&#8217;s beauty through tasteful pieces that are chic and feminine - truly inspiring!- T xo*Images from VW Facebook

How do you go nude without taking your clothes off? Burberry has your answer!Nudes and light tan colourings have been harmonized with the Burberry label since the luxury fashion house beginnings.

The collection is based on skin colour and some swinging 60&#8217;s inspired frames.
    
   
If you are a bit shy on bold colours, nude tones contrasted with white, black or grey outfits are an easier colour statement as it&#8217;s a neutral tone and more subtle on the eyes!- T xo *Selected styles coming soon to Sunglass Hut Australia
