TIME TO DISCONNECT

Hello my name is Sophie and I am addicted to notifications. My story? From the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep I’m pressing refresh on a plethora of platforms. And the addiction isn't limited to my spare time; working in the field of Communications, I’m constantly connected, constantly watching real-time analytics, constantly chasing the next Insta-high. I can trace the obsession back to the moment I acquired my first iPhone upon the break-up of a long-term relationship. The empty void in my bed was filled with virtual distraction and a collection of cookies, and the rest is (browsing) history. 

MODA IN PELLE S/S12 PRESS DAY

On Monday I hotfooted it to the Oui Rooms post work for the Moda in Pelle S/S12 Press Day. Moda in Pelle is the go-to brand for celebrities looking for red carpet worthy heels; X Factor judge Tulisa, the TOWIE girls and Jessie J are all fans of the brand.


So what does Moda predict it's celebrity following will be wearing for the forthcoming season?


The glitz glam 'Hollywood Heroines' range takes inspiration from the glamourous starlets of the late 50's and 60's, creating a red-carpet worthy collection that is sure to satisfy Moda's celebrity fans.The dazzling sequin and diamante encrusted courts and peep toes were the highlight of the press day for me, what girl wouldn't dream about owning a pair of these?

For beachwear, Moda are predicting Jelly shoes will still be a big trend, and I love how the brand have added their signature glitz/glam to their versions with luxe diamante detailing.

1970's fashion is still a key trend in Moda in Pelle's S/S12 collection, so there's no to need to relegate your platform heels from your wardrobe just yet! This amazing pair called 'Petty' were the stand out style in the range for me; the sky-high heel, flash of gold and coral suede recreate the Studio 54 look. I wouldn't be suprised if Tulisa is the first to snap up a pair.

Another great style with that seventies feel were these stunning striped block heel peep toes in bright coral and electric blue, surely another perfect style for celebs looking to impress on the red carpet. I expect to see lots of press coverage of this style come spring/summer.

There was so much more to love in the collection my post could go on forever, but instead I'll direct you to shop the current Moda in Pelle collection here.

MODA IN PELLE LOVES LA FASHION FOLIE BLOGSPOT!

I am very proud to announce that one of the hottest footwear brands on the high street, Moda in Pelle, have given Lafashionfolie blogspot their fashionable seal of approvable.

I'll let you into a little secret as to why here; I undertook a 1 year internship at Moda in Pelle office during my degree, where I met some of the most glamourous girls working in fashion. The girls working in the HQ in Leeds really are the perfect ambassadors for the brand, wearing impossibly glam heels for work everyday. Working with such stylish ladies opened my eyes to the wonders of heels after years spent devoted to flats. So it's thanks to MIP girls that I now have a wardrobe full of platforms, heeled courts, stilettoes, wedges, the list goes on!

My favourite style in Moda's current collection are definitely the gorgeous blush-coloured suede Pollyanna wegdes below. Pefect for nailing this season's seventies trend, Pollyanna will look seriously stylish teamed with an on-trend pair of flared trousers.
