Get your five a day


The lack of fashion shows at this time of year makes me feel like a carnivore who has been forced to go vegetarian for a month; dizzy, irritable and weakened. I seriously feel as if I'm lacking in sustenance, and I therefore end up foraging online for any tasty style titbits. So here I am, kindly sharing todays five-a-day with you!
ONE. I'm still obsessed with hosiery, and House of Holland's limited Crimble additions are the only kind of nylon heaven I'm interested in. What's better than having WANNA PARTY written up the backs of your calves? Nothing, that's what. Snap them up here.
TWO. There a quite a few pieces of jewelry on the market at the moment that give more of a fierce body pop than a nod towards the silver creations for Jimmy Choo at H&M. Head over to Topshop if that sounds right up your studded street, and while you're at it check out the chunky monochrome bangles that are drawing me to their flagship store lickety split. Here they are in fabulous pixeled 2D.
THREE. I have always adored Westwood, I owe so much to her! I'm loving a little bit of twinkle this year and am sure to whip out my Swarovski embellished perspex hair clip soon. If the sound of that little gem appeals to you, nip online here and grab a broach of the same design.
FOUR. I'm loving the whole Miss Havisham vibe at the moment; lace, dusted velvet and black black black... swoon!! If you're more ghoul than glam then check out All Saint's skull candle here - erring on the right side of eerie, it's perfect to satisfy your inner goth.
FIVE. Tipped to perform at this year's Royal Variety Show is Lady Gaga. I hear you ask, how is that in any way related to the tempting little list I've just given you... well, it's not, but who really gets their true five a day anyway?! And plus, I think it's the kind of news I need to trumpet about. Asked if HRH was familiar with Lady Gaga, a spokesperson for Buckingham Palace said she 'really wasn't sure' if the Queen had ever listened to Lady Gaga before. Come now, that's just like when you're parents said maybe when you were a child. It's just a polite way of saying no.
