Daisy Lowe Designs 1950s Swimwear

Daisy Lowe is in the process of designing her debut swimwear line for Peacocks. She will model the range herself, which will be launched in April in time for Summer. Lowe's muse has been pin-up Betty Page, Sophia Loren and of course her mum, Pearl Lowe. She has also taken inspiration from the French Riviera. The prices are fantastic and will start from £18, so no excuse for anyone to look bad around the pool. No images of the new range has been released yet.

I am quite excited about this as the team at Vintage Owl Boutique just love 1950s swimwear. We have got quite a collection of 1950s swimwear with 2 currently available to buy on our website. The rest of the collection will be available to buy in the near future. Here are some photos to get you all excited though!

Dress from Marc Jacobs

It was the Golden Globes last night and anybody who was anybody was out in their best frocks. I have picked some gorgeous dresses from the  red carpet that have quite a vintage feel to them. Heidi Klum was looking very bold & bright in a dress from Marc Jacob's very 70s inspired collection (see more of his collection in one of my previous blogs). Jayma Mays, from Glee, was looking fabulous in a very gothic art deco inspired dress from Alberta Ferretti. 

Milla Jovovich and Olivia Wilde's dresses would probably have to be my favourites for the night. Jovovich always manages to pull off quite a vintage boho look and her look last night is just perfect. From her hair down to her jewelery... it is just divine! Although, if I had a chance to go the ball I would probably wear Olivia Wilde's sparkly Cinderella dress. Not only does she look fabulous she also looks like she is having so much fun!

Marc Jacobs Spring 2011 ready to wear collection...

Marc Jacobs has definitely been inspired by the Seventies and the East in his Spring RTW 2011 collection. He has chosen beautiful bright colours and fabulous prints. I especially love the mixture of silk and satin and his ode to Missoni's zig-zag knitwear. I will definitely be getting myself a wide-brimmed straw hat this summer. I think they are fabulous and will look great with your summer wardrobe,  plus they really remind me of Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver! This collection has definitely got me excited about Summer!
