Design your own party dress...

Have you heard about Style Shake, the UK website that lets you custom design your own dresses and then makes them for you? Iris Ben-David created this website or web retailer Style Shake, that lets you choose the fabric, colour, cut/design and trimmings. Then all you have to give are your exact measurements and their designers are going to create your perfect dress in just 10 days. What's even better is that they also have a fit guarantee, so you can send it back and get it altered if its not quite what you want. If you are having difficulties deciding what you want on your own, you can get some inspiration by searching through the thousands of pieces that have already been created by previous users. Apparently the price is not that cheap, but then again it will be your own design and don't forget their promise of quality! Isn't it a brilliant idea? Would you give it a go, or have you tried it already? Let me know...

Frock Me! Vintage Fashion Fair this weekend

Ok..., so if you are a real vintage addict you have to be there this weekend!
Sunday the 15th Feb 2009
Frock Me! is the place to find clothes from every era, from 1920s ‘flapper’ style to Fifties glamour, eighties retro-chic or classic 1960s trends.
They have the best bargains I promise! You have the whole day bargain hunting and even celebrity hunting.
Celebrities? Yes, Kate Moss or Yoko Ono also love shopping there, however they love being left alone too...
It's located in Chelsea Town Hall (Here is the exact address if you need it: The King's Road, Chelsea SW3 5EZ) , and they are open from 11.00 to 17.30
And if you get tired, just visit the ever so popular Vintage Tea Room for lovely cakes, cream teas and delicious sandwiches. By the way they are all served on antique china, so they really are worth a try!
Oh and they have more vintage fashion fairs coming up - all year around.
