Why has no one thought of this before?
River Island have a new range of high tops in, accept these arent just normal high top trainers, these are original as they have a heel wedge on the inside of the shoe. This makes your legs longer and yourself talller. It seems so clever but it’s so simple. Time for me to get mine!

Upcoming Designers Style the Olympic Opening Ceremony

friendtrendtony — Mon, 30 Jul 2012 07:16:19 -0400

The Opening Ceremony of London 2012 Olympic games went off in STYLE on Friday Night! It brought together representatives from all of London’s creative industries including fashion. Upcoming brands of East London, Christopher Shannon, Michael Van Der Ham and Nasir Mazhar dressed 350 of the 1,200 entertainers who danced away to the compilation of famous British hits.

Surrirat Larlab, creative director of the Opening Ceremony who worked in tandem with Danny Boyle explains “We wanted to choose young designers who work and live in the East End for the opening ceremony and who create innovative and cutting edge new ideas. It has been an incredible experience working with this fresh new talent, all of whom have dedicated themselves heart and soul to this project.”

Cheryl goes Retro in New video

friendtrendtony — Fri, 27 Jul 2012 04:05:00 -0400

Cheryl Cole has released her new video for the song “Under The Sun,” It has been directed by Anthony Mandler, who also directed the video for Cheryl‘s song “Call My Name.”

The video features a contemporary take on sixties fashion statements, the most striking of which is a yellow bra peeking out from her bolero (a short tailored jacket). The bolero-bra combination is paired with a coral-coloured pencil skirt… and the whole effect is one that reveals a saucy bit more than you’d expect for a 1960s ensemble.

Check out the video here: http://youtu.be/qr1bkbWKevE

What do you think of her look?

Shopping for second-hand clothes at charity shops like Oxfam is more popular than ever, but why? We had a look about on Pinterest to see whether we could dig up some hidden gems…

“Francis Softanil Cuoio, super stylish, and sooo comfortable, usually £210 euros, charity shop job £56 :D” http://pinterest.com/meerlyapirate/

“More charity shop goodies.” http://pinterest.com/anne_l_kershaw/

Styling a shoot…

Need makeup ideas for a photoshoot, here are a few ott looks that I tried.

Eyes… Stick the embellishments on with lipgloss and blend 3 eye shadow colours/shades and blend together for a minimal effect or if you want to go all out, use rainbow colours but make sure you blend well.

Lips… use of eye shadows on the lips blended together finished with a touch of lipgloss for the finished effect, or the use of salt/sugar crystals and anything diamonte, again stuck on with lipgloss.

friendtrendtony — Wed, 06 Jun 2012 08:24:15 -0400

Hi everyone,

Hope you’ve all had a great Jubilee Weekend! For the past 6 weeks we’ve been testing, developing and reading your fantastic feedback. We’re quickly approaching the next stage of release and quite a few new updates!

We’re now OPEN! - We’ve opened up Friendtrend.com for the very first-time. The website is now completely open for anyone and everyone to use! Sign-up now, it’s free to join and start sharing your outfits!

Champion your Brands! - So we were thinking… everyone likes to wear a variety of brands don’t they? With all these brands being displayed on your profile things could get pretty messy. Now you have the ability to edit your brand-list and select which brands you would like visitors to see! Start championing your favourite brands!

More Exclusive Offers! – Everyone loves shopping online right? Why search the high-street when members of Friendtrend automatically get access to our Offers page which we frequently update with the latest online sales and promotional codes, simple! The Featured Offers at the top of the page are hand picked by our team, you won’t find these offers anywhere else. Share what you wear and save some pennies, how good is that?

Connect with Facebook! – This is giant, huge, massive and humongous (err)! Users are now able to connect to Friendtrend with Facebook. Share every outfit with your Facebook buddies using the Friendtrend timeline app, import your most stylish pictures directly from your FB albums and invite your friends to join in the fun. All this can be yours, at a click of a button.

Almost there! In addition to all the lovely updates we’ve also been busy implementing a brand (he-he) new notification system with plenty of flashy design-changes and bug fixes throughout the site. If you do happen to come across any bugs or problems with Friendtrend we’d like to hear from you, either leave us some Feedback (the big white button on the left, after you sign in) alternatively you can e-mail the dev-team directly- support [at] Friendtrend [dot] com.

And finally, we’d just like to say a BIG THANKYOU to everyone who took part in the first 6 weeks of closed testing. Without you (the fearless guinea-pigs army) development of Friendtrend would be rather dull and boring.

Hope to see your outfits on Friendtrend very soon and remember…

Fashion should be for everyone!

<3 Friendtrend Team

Holly Willoughby and Fearne Cotton with Keith Lemon at the National Television Awards.

Holly’s dressed in a slimming black dress looking classy as always showing off her beautiful curves, Fearne has gone for the shimmer and glitter trend with her silver reflective frilly skirt collaborated with a beautiful embellished top styled with red heals to add a hint of colour - she always has been quite the style icon, and then Keith Lemon in his typical Golden suit to match his hair, but we wouldn’t love him any other way other than his quirky hilarious self.
