The Rachelle Lust List: 10th December 2012

1. Be warned - I'm well and truly into Christmas mode! Obsessing over these Equipment silk pyjamas (£465), cant think of a chicer ensemble to lounge in on Christmas morning! 2. Treated myself to a polish from the new Essie Winter 2012 collection, Leading Lady with some Boots points - a beautiful full on glitter shade, this could be the beauty to grace my nails on Christmas! Yes, there will be a chosen polish... 3. I've currently no plans to jet abroad until well into 2013, but should you be off somewhere hot over Christmas this Topshop bikini is so sexy for an amazing price, £32! 4. I've been after a new powder highlight for months, I'm a little bored of the silvery tone of Mac MSF in Soft & Gentle, I've swatched Bobbi Browns Shimmer Brick in Bronze (£32) countless times and finally took the plunge this weekend! Now to not be wasteful and finish off the MSF first... 5. Loving the colour combination and drop shape of these Marni earrings, £325. 6. & 7. How fun are these Charlotte Olympia shoes? Okay, maybe only socially acceptably worn on one day of the year but should you have heavily lined pockets and a sense of humour, why wouldnt you indulge in Christmas Pudding pumps?! 8. This Topshop playsuit is just too pretty (£50), perfect for Christmas nights out! As is no 9, the V-Back and intricate embellishment give the flattering skater style a festive lift (£65). 10. Okay, I'm still not over this hiking boot style and potentially never will be.. River Island Boots (£120). rachelle xo

Fashion Inspiration: Haute for the Holidays

Make like these fashionable lovelies and go all out on the glamour this Christmas; fur with diamonds, backless dresses with intricate embellishment, the most fabulous of blow-drys and champagne with friends..

Even if your budget doesn't quite stretch to haute couture, both Topshop and Zara have some stunning party-pieces and equally glamorous shoes to accompany - and All Saints do the best luxe leathers and faux-fur on the highstreet.

Fashion Inspiration: The Lovely Lana

I am one of many of the thousands of people enraptured by the throaty, seductive voice of Lana Del Rey. Since falling for her first single, Video Games, I've become a huge fan of her album and developed a massive girl crush on the lady herself.

Channeling a somewhat '50s pin-up with bouncy, flowing locks and that feline-flick, Lana is undeniably as gorgeous to look at as she is to listen to. I found some stunning editorial shots from two recent cover shoots shes done for Vogue Australia and Vogue Italia. Enjoy!

The Rachelle Edit: Fall 2012 | All Saints

Its no secret that I'm a huge All Saints fan. A massive proportion of my high-street wardrobe (and the boys) is from the cool London brand. I adore the off-duty model look All Saints does so well, the pieces last forever, are excellent quality with designer-esque cuts and always look fabulous thrown on with pretty much anything. The new Autumn/Winter 2012 collection is no different, continue reading for more of my favourite outfits from the lookbook and my edit of the best new season pieces...

What to Wear: Fit & Flare Dresses

I've previously declared my love for Victoria Beckham (perhaps more than once...), as far as I'm concerned - everything she touches, turns to gold. For example, flared dressed. Obsessed, would be an understatement, for my infatuation with this new dress-shape, the best of course produced by Mrs B herself.

Taking the tonal palette to the next level, I'm clinging onto this fresh neutral look for to see me through to the end of summer. The beautiful dress needs no further desciption, the Victoria by Victoria Beckham is a snip at  her main-line prices, but still hurts the bank balance at £740.Go matchy-matchy in Alexander McQueen pale-pink pumps (£440) and an oversized Mulberry Alexa (£925) and, why not, matching nails by Essie in the nude hue, Mademoiselle. Gold jewellery is always a must have, I wear this Michael Kors watch (£250) & Alexander McQueen bracelet just about every single day.

Spotlight On: Beautiful Details | Backstage at Elie Saab Haute Couture

The Elie Saab Haute Couture show is never a one to miss. Intricate beading and embellishment in striking cuts and a truly beautiful colour palette, the only good thing about the close of the show is the glimpse backstage. . . 

The Rachelle Edit: Topshop Treats

I've spent the past hour of my life unproductively yet enjoyably perving over the New In section at Topshop. There are so many amazing new items to hit stores this week, these are my favourites. . .

The Rachelle Edit: Resort 2013 | Proenza Schouler vs Valentino

Another two of my favourite collections to emerge from the Resort 2013 shoots came from Proenza Schouler and Valentino. Each keeping to their houses typical style; strong colours and shapes from Proenza, and romantic dresses finished with pretty pastels and plenty of lace from Valentino.
