Just in time for the weekend, weve been chatting to our Creative Team about their favourite looks this week… And we can feed back that theyre excited about a delicious trend theyre calling Strawberries and Cream. A stylish nod to Wimbledon, this look beautifully pairs coral reds with whites and a subtle hint of floral in ladylike separates. Its just right for this warmer weather and sophisticated enough for the the finest Summersoire.Keep the look sleek and chic by tucking in your tops or blouses and highlighting with a neat coloured belt. Accompany with a classic tan bag and dont be afraid to tie your scarf in new ways. These accessories look just as good tied as a vintage-inspired hair bow, adorning the wrist or looped around the handles of handbags as they do as neck ties. Game, set, and a fool proof ensemble to match!Shop these pieces and other New Arrivals here.

Graduate Fashion Week is a fantastic opportunity for budding fashion students to show their final collections – so when we received our invite to the Gala Show; promising the opportunity to view up and coming design talent, meet celebs and sup Champagne, we couldn't possibly turn it down! Presented by Caryn Franklin and founder Jeff Banks (remember them of The Clothes Show fame?), they were accompanied by guest presenters Sophie Ellis Bextor, Heidi Range from the Sugababes and Daily Telegraph Fashion Director Hilary Alexander who handed out the awards to some outstanding entries. Congratulations to Marissa Owen from University of Central Lancashire who won the top prize for Womenswear and Felix Chabluk Smith, Edinburgh College of Art, for Menswear.The big award of the night went to Rory Langdon from Nottingham Trent University who created a collection of knitwear inspired by chainmail and zip designs. The models were styled in round sunglasses the Olsen Twins would be proud of, a 'bold yet simple idea' that won over the judges. Congratulations to Rory and hopefully this will be the first of many stellar collections.From top to bottom: collections from Emma Robinson, Angela Ritson andRory Langdon.
