LFW and jones + jones at the Elle Style Awards!

Milan Fashion Week may be well under way but we’re still on London time at jones + jones HQ and sent our talented Design Assistant Mhairi to the London Fashion Week Exhibition at Somerset House earlier this week to check it out…

 

Mhairi reported back that her three key words from the exhibition were bold, energetic and fun and our new S/S 2012 collection definitely encapsulates all of that and so much more!

On the subject of all things stylish, Anastasia from the Cosmopolitan Head Office team is a jones + jones fan and wore the Audrey Dress in black to the Elle Style Awards earlier this month!…

Styled with a beaded clutch, black tights and heels, we think Anastasia looked stunning and she also gained celebrity admirers too!…

This is the second time this week that David Gandy has featured in our blog as he was also pictured with Anna from Bourjois wearing the jones + jones Border Laura Dress in black! It seems we have proof that (very handsome) men are definitely drawn to gorgeous jones + jones girls!

We hope you have a glamorous weekend!

£1 for all UK Standard deliveries…with love Jones + Jones x

Jones + Jones would like to treat you all by offering £1 for all UK Standard deliveries, which means you can spend more on pampering yourself and accessorising your Jones + Jones outfit!

For inspiration for accessorising your Jones + Jones outfit, the belted waist was seen on LFW catwalks this week for A/W 2011, as mentioned in our Jones + Jones blog on Tuesday. Follow in the major fashion and celebrity trend by adding a tan belt over a glamourous dress for a perfect, on-trend look for a night out!

If you’re looking for a more casual look, take inspiration from the Jones + Jones office’s style favourite, Olivia Palermo who combined a maxi skirt and jumper with a tan belt for a relaxed and chic look at the Matthew Williamson A/W 2011 show.

We particularly recommend accessorising the the Jones + Jones Air Dress with a tan waist belt as it is free size so it drops beautifully around any figure but you can accentuate your waist with a belt to add curves . The Jones + Jones Air Dress is available in cream lace, black lace, snake skin print, white, black and red, so there are plenty of options to choose from!

We hope that you enjoy and take full advantage of our treat of £1 for all UK Standard deliveries! Treat yourselves, its pay weekend!

Beautiful bows at Jones + Jones!

British designer Vivienne Westwood showcased a beautiful black velvet skirt complete with a large black bow at the waist during LFW at the weekend…be ahead of the trends (minus the velvet – lets be honest velvet in the spring is abit on the heavy side) with the Jones + Jones Colette Skirt in black!

Vivienne Westwood's velvet skirt with bow waist belt from her A/W 2011 Red Label collection.

Combining a pretty bow on the waist in grosgrain ribbon with soft pleats, which are very on trend now ( a trend which doesn’t seem to be disappearing for A/W 2011 either), the Colette Skirt will be a staple your wardrobe shouldn’t be without this year.

Add your choice of top from a crisp white shirt, a sheer blouse, a bustier or jersey tee loosely tucked in depending on your mood or occasion. The Colette Skirt is available on the Jones + Jones website and in our concessions in Topshop.

Jones + Jones feminine yet edgy take on the classic trench coat

The Jones + Jones office team are starting to get restless for spring to really blossom now…not only are we tired of  the wind and rain but we’re oh-so tired of our winter wardrobes too. Wearing a thick wool winter coat can be comforting but sometimes you still want to look feminine and show off your curves without braving all of the elements in a dress, especially for a night out or a dressier occasion. In answer to this outerwear conundrum, the Jones + Jones Design team created  a fresh, very feminine yet still incredibly chic Trench Coat. Not only is it oh-so-pretty to look at but it is also manufactured  so it is water resistant as well!

The Jones + Jones Paris Trench Coat is currently available in black with a black and white striped lining and in beige with a charming light brown gingham lining. Practical and pretty, it is perfect to go over our pleated dresses and skirts or your favourite skinny jeans.

Trench coats never go out of fashion and to prove my point trench coats and pleats have been spotted on the A/W 2011 runways at LFW already! They are an investment piece that will take you from spring right through to winter (especially if they’re water resistant!).

Vivienne Westwood designed this edgy take on the beige trench coat for her Red Label A/W 2011 collection

The Jones + Jones Trench Coat comes complete with a detachable belt made from the same material as the coat so that you can tie it into a huge bow, accentuating your waist or leave it loose for a more casual look. However if you want to add your own personal twist to the Jones + Jones Trench Coat, add your own choice of belt… look to Burberry Prorsum (how could we discuss the wonders of outerwear without featuring Burberry somewhere!) and Margaret Howell’s A/W 2011 collections for inspiration…

Colour was added to outerwear using belts at the Burberry Prorsum A/W show 2011 yesterday

Topshop have done a nice plain brown leather belt with a slight twist on the stud detail with their chocolate three stud leather jeans belt but if you’re looking for something more feminine, we love the silk stretch Cornelli belt from Jigsaw, available in black or our favourite berry red – it would be perfect for a glamorous night out. For a more day time look with abit of stretch, the tan square buckle elastic belt from Topshop is perfect!

The Jones + Jones Paris Trench Coat  is available on our website, on the Jones + Jones section of the Topshop.com website and in our Topshop concessions in store now… keep a look out for new colours soon!
