Style spotlight: Florence Welch

By Elisabeth on December 9th, 2011

We all know one of the most important beauty commandments is to get enough sleep, and we do try our best to get the recommended hours each week despite living hectic lives. But it seems like Florence and the Machine singer Florence Welch has another opinion altogether.

Florence says she feels ‘special’ when she realises she has stayed awake for over 24 hours and that her ‘favourite mode of being’ is having not slept. She continues: “The reason why it’s so special is because you know that it’s going to crash. As soon as you go to sleep, you know everything will be reset double and work will be double.”

This may be the case Florence, but we still do love our beauty sleep.

If Florence’s ‘sleep idea’ has anything to do with her choice of fashion we do not know, but take a look at the gallery below for some of her outfits over the past couple of years.

Beauty trends: The red head as seen on Paloma Faith, Karen Gillan and Jason Orange’s new squeeze Catherine Tate

By Andrea Petrou on November 1st, 2011

Ginger and red heads have, in the past, had a hard time of it. When Girls Aloud first came out, ginger head Nicola Roberts was quickly transformed into a brunette and her red roots were hurriedly touched up so we forgot about her traditional colourings.

However as the years have passed the red and ginger heads have come out on top with a huge range of celebrities opting to dye their locks this hue.

And it also seems that men are seeing the attraction with Jason Orange reportedly striking up a romance with red head Catherine Tate. We look at the lucky celebrities who are blessed with this hair colour naturally.

ShinyStyle loves: Fashion-forward female musicians

Watch this space for the new girl drummer and singer Florrie, whose Grace Kelly looks and chic sense of style have caught the attention of fashion editors and labels already. We love her fresh, clean style - plus she's beautiful too.

This weekend it was the legendary Lollapalooza Festival in Chicago, which was celebrating it’s 20th anniversary in style. We couldn’t help noticing that this year there were just as many girls rocking out onstage as there were boys – Taylor Momsen drew crowds performing with her band The Pretty Reckless, head-to-toe in sexy black leather and stockings, while elsewhere at the festival Ellie Goulding sang her heart out with an acoustic guitar and Lykke Li performed looking darkly mysterious in a leather cape-top.

I don’t know about you but I couldn’t be prouder that we have so many exciting, talented and fashion-forward female musicians at the moment. I’m coming over all riot grrl.

Above is a gallery of our favourite female musicians at the moment, who are combining a love of fashion and dressing up with a geniune talent and passion for creating music. Some are new faces, some are old favourites — naturally Florence Welch is there, for doing it Stevie Nicks-style in dramatic floaty gowns and ethereal vintage. Check it out and feel the power.

Florence Welch wants to design her own fashion line

By emilyborrett on August 1st, 2011

Florence is well known for her eccentric and dramatic sense of style, which draws a lot of inspiration from vintage

Majorly exciting news!  The flame-haired music diva Florence Welch, who is known for her quirky and dramatic sense of style, is planning to design her own affordable clothing line as a collaborative effort with the stylist Aldene Johnson.

The singer has been topping the best-dressed rankings for the past couple of years, so it would be incredibly exciting to see Ms Welch embark upon a fashion project. A source revealed that Florence has been inspired by Kate Moss’ previous collaborations with Topshop taking inspiration from the model’s wardrobe, and is looking to do the same herself.

The source said, “She has thousands of unique pieces, everything from vintage gowns to garments she’s been given by Karl Lagerfeld, and would love to work with Aldene to create a line inspired by her wardrobe, like Kate Moss did.”

God, we’re excited. Get a move on, Flo – we are ABSOLUTELY DYING to see what you come up with.

Florence Welch has been getting style ideas from the Statue of Liberty

By Andrea Petrou on May 23rd, 2011

Florence Welch has been getting style ideas from the Statue of Liberty.

The Florence and the Machine singer – who is well known for her love of fashion – arrived at the Wyld at W London – Leicester Square party last night (19.05.11) and onlookers noted how the famed fashionista seemed to have dressed strikingly like the New York landmark.

A source told BANG Showbiz: “She looked great at the party, throwing shapes with her boyfriend Stuart Hammond while enjoying Wyld Shots.

“However, as cool as the headband she was wearing was, there was no doubt she looked just like the Statue of Liberty in New York – she even had matching sandals! It’s an unusual place to look for inspiration, but for her it worked.”

Florence was joined at the event by Hollywood legend Cuba Gooding Jr. and British fashionista Alexa Chung, who all enjoyed the music put on for them by a host of DJs including Nick Grimshaw.

The ‘Dog Days Are Over’ hitmaker has previously admitted it took her a long time to develop her own sense of style and feel confident in her looks.

She said: “When did I first feel beautiful? It took a long time because I was a short, chubby kid. It wasn’t until I was 17 that I grew into myself and started wearing the clothes that I wanted to wear.

“As a teenager, my best friend and I started going to burlesque shows in vintage clothes from charity shops held on with safety pins. I finally felt like I could express myself in clothes.”

Spotted at FINCA’s 25th anniversary event in NYC: Florence Welch, Natalie Portman, Jake Gyllenhaal and Jason Wu

The stars were all out for a good cause last night in the Big Apple to celebrate the 25th anniversary of FINCA, an organisation that strives to create work opportunities and improve the standards of living for some of the world’s poorest.

The UK’s own Florence Welch was there looking like a sexy Victorian governess in a dramatic sweep of black draped velvet against snow-white skin and auburn hair – an alternative fashion beauty all the way. Viva Florence! It was only a matter of time before NYC decided to recognise the girl. Also there was cutting edge stylist Kate Young in an adorably oversized cream pussy-bow, teamed with a slouchy blazer and stonking heels, looking like a little kitten we want to take home and spoil. She was definitely giving her companion Jason Wu a run for his money (though you looked lovely in your suit as well, Jase, don’t worry.)

Representing those of the silver screen were Jake Gyllenhaal looking like Mr. Tom Ford in a classic black and white suit, and Adventureland star Margarita Levieva, who showed off her enviable curves in a demure navy tea dress that was neatly nipped in at the waist with a patent skinny belt. With a career that’s really only just beginning to take off, we’ve seen little of this actress, but her style tells us that we want to see more. Watch this fashion space.

However, the true star of the night was FINCA ambassador and actress Natalie Portman, who was looking breathtaking in a classic white minidress from Christian Dior. We’ve all been told by magazines and designers that the LWD (little white dress) is set to become the new classic LBD and, personally, I’ve been a little sceptical – but looking at how Natalie’s rocked the dress, maybe we should reconsider.

Check the gallery above to see who attended the gala.

Glastonbury festival: Sienna Miller, Kate Moss and Alexa Chung dance the weekend away

By Andrea Petrou on June 28th, 2010

While festival goers danced the weekend away at Glastonbury the stars we’re also out in force enjoying the bands and showing off their festival fashion. And it seems denim shorts were the trend of the day. Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Emma Watson and Sienna Miller all went for these denim lovelies teaming them up with shirts, ankle boots, and in Sienna’s case an on-trend Trilby hat.

An off duty Kate Nash and Channel 4 presenter Jameela Jamil took the short trend that step further opting for high waisted versions of these. Kate teamed hers up with a loud top, while Jameela went for a sleek black top and sun hat.

On-stage Florence Welch opted for a white leotard with one shoulder detail before changing into a flowing boho style frock to enjoy the rest of the day, while Shakira went for her statement casual look, opting for jeans and a plain top for her stage performance.

Billie Piper was also spotted in a tribal style maxi dress, while Pixie opted for a short black number, which she teamed up with knee high socks.
