Last Saturday I wore this orange eyeshadow(I promise it looks a lot brighter in the real!). I was inspired by Manish Arora.

I have always been a fan of Manish Arora’s colourful and highly embellished design ethos. His autumn winter 2010 collection was no exception but what really caught my eye was the neon bright eye makeup.

The electric pink eyebrows and flouro yellow/green/orange eyeshadow was trippy acid rainbow meets orbital girl.

The shade im wearing is one I picked up in this tiny chemist. You know the type with the most random makeup brands.

In my makeup bag is this neon purple eyeliner that I am will be experimenting with in a scaled back version of the catwalk look.

I am also liking the below shades.

♦ To keep it chic stick to one colour. The eyeshadows above are just a few of the few eye popping shades available.

♦ Try a coloured false eyelash. Think more high fashion and less experimental pre-teen.

♦ Dip into the trend by simply replacing your usual eyeliner with a brighter hue.

♦ If the all over lid look is too bold for you, apply the color sparingly in the crease of the lid. The other day a client had a ‘look at me’ turquoise shade in the corners of her eye. It looked amazing.

♦ Finally, be creative! Make up your own rules.

Will you be going all bright eyed?

I have been traipsing about in this disco-tastic H&M one piece with a ‘look at me’ orange pout.

Some days ‘sheeny shiny over the top’ just works…

All about the spring orange lipstick trend and how to recreate the orange lip colour look here.

Happy glam Monday darlings! Here is a quick shot of me at London Fashion Week today. I woke up to light snow today, outfit wise I felt like taking cover and so I pulled the snood out the closet.

I am wearing it with a vintage Anne Klein dresss, Lounge Lover draped cardigan, studded belt, H&M leggings and flat patent shoes.

Dashing off to review a show now but stay tuned for all the LFW updates.

Red stained kisses,
Marian.

I must be unconsciously hankering for a lighter palette; yesterday it was the maxi grey marl jersey skirt and for day 2 of fashion week I wore this today.

The vintage silk dress and the bespoke nude-peachy floaty piece = Love.

Both pieces are wonderfully light and move like an eerie dream.
