If you heart Louboutins as much as we do the we suggest you hot foot it down to London’s Design museum, which is paying homage to the designer’s famous footwear.
Marking 20 years of red soled lovelies, the exhibition will run for 10 weeks, and showcases some of the best creations by the talented designer.
Playing on the idea that “every woman wants to be a showgirl”, the exhibition stars burlesque star Dita Von Teese, which appears as a hologram centrepiece amongst sky high heels as well as mirrored plinths, neon signs and velvet sofas.
We’ll see you in the box office queue.
See the gallery below for a sneak peak of the exhibition.

We’ve had our style eye on Jessie J for a while now, pinpointing her as the one to watch many moons ago.
And it seems we were right with the singer carving out a fashion niche for herself thanks to her love of Versacesque 80s patterns, skintight catsuits and cute hotpants.
Her new role as a judge on the BBC’s talent show – The Voice UK- has also done wonders for her style profile with many sitting up and taking note of this young singer.
One thing we heart about Jessie is that she’s not afraid to experiment with her look opting for some styles that could be seen as garish.
This includes a wardrobe of leopard print dresses and trousers in bright colours, however, the singer has a way of toning these down to make them items we all want to wear.
We want her as our new wardrobe sharing BFF.
See the gallery below for her style.

Hemlines have also been made longer to reflect the relaxed feel of the 70s, while fabrics are lighter and more floaty.

If you’re not a natural tanner and don’t like the idea of fake tan, then the natural baby face make up trend is right up your street.
Highlighted on the Missoni and Stella McCartney SS 2012 shows, this trend embraces the pale, natural look, with barely there foundation and blusher.
However, you don’t have to risk going bare faced to achieve this look. Choose a light tinted moisturiser with light reflecting qualities to cover flaws and give your skin an even look.
Keep lips natural with a splash of gloss and eyes minimal with a splash of foundation.
See the designer inspiration in the gallery below.

The rain may be putting a dampener on our Spring/Summer clothing, but our make up doesn’t have to suffer.
And what better way to add a bit of summer cheer than with this season’s creative colour pop trend. A hit at Moschino and Vivienne Westwood, this make up trend urges you to bring out your young wild side, combining pale skin with big, bold neon coloured eyes.
Yellows, blues and pinks are all a must with this look, while jewels and thick lashes can be added for an evening look.
See all the designer inspiration below.

If red lippy is too bold for you, then you’ll love the romantic rosebud makeup look that’s hot on everyone’s lips this season.
Touted on the catwalks of Peter Som, Balmain and Matthew Williamson, this look is all about soft, dewy colours that give a nod to the romantic trends of the 70s.
To get the look coat lips in a pale pink creamy lipstick or gloss. Team up with minimal foundation and a similar rose blusher.
Keep it simple with a coat of mascara for the day, and coat lashes with a pale pink shadow for the evening.
See the designer beauty inspiration in the gallery below.

Topshop has launched its high summer 2012 collection, and as usual we heart every single piece in the range.
This season the highstreet store has gone right back to the 80s and early 90s offering us faded denim jeans, mini patterned ra-ra skirts and oversized tees.
There’s also printed leggings, faded denim waistcoats and dip dyed jeans to whet your fashion appetite.
If you’re a bit of a girls girl then there’s also a cute collection of little floral and vintage numbers all given an 80s twist thanks to the colour palate and structured bralets.

We love the delicate, romantic flower prints in the Kelly Love SS12 collection. Australian born, London based designer Kelly Love’s (yes that’s her real name!) creations are influenced by her time spent in Japan, where the notion of owning her own label was born.
The SS12 collection is inspired by outdoor games from a child’s imagination, nursery rhymes and picnics in the meadow, along with the contrast of old fashioned femininity, vintage lingerie and 1930′s cocktail parties. Grown up fantasy exists in layered dresses with exclusive prints, crochet collars, pleated jersey in dusty rose, French antique lace and olive jacquard spotted silk.
We are definitely in love! Visit www.kellylove.com for more information.
