Monochrome watches are super hot






Victoria Beckham's latest designs include shoes which have been meticulously coloured to match her fabulous rose-gold Rolex watch. A stickler for detail, I might gesture.

However, watches are a really hot look this season so be sure to invest. Morgan De Toi have created a gorgeous collection of versatile, trend inspired watches much like these lovely ones by Chanel.

Like the Chanel ones you see they've ticked the trend box for this season's monochrome look and also have a timeless ergonomic look that harks back to the swinging Sixties.

Suiting all occasions, and catering for the individualist in you, these are all good choices to go for. You just need to decide whether to splurge on your credit card or pay cash for the cheap 'n' chic version.

Just make sure your watch is timely and on trend this season.

Heidi Mottram in Dare2 magazine


Artistspringboard stocks amazing designer Heidi Mottram and she's featured in Dare2 fashion magazine. Check out the interview online.

Of her chic eel-skin bags, Heidi tells the magazine: “Eel skin is super soft, feather light and luxurious to touch. It also dyes exceptionally well which allows me to create beautiful jewel coloured bags and purses. I use eel skin because of its amazing feel and also because it is a by product of the food industry. This gorgeous skin would be going to waste!”

Asked about using celebrity model Sophie Anderton in her latest campaign she says, “Sophie is a fan of my bags and was seen at the last Fashion Week and various other events with my bags. Who better to model my bags than someone who genuinely likes them.”

We look forward to hearing more about Heidi and her uprising in fashion!
