Shop Sorbet Shades For Winter

Ice-cream pastels are still with us for AW14. In every shade of pink, blue, lilac, green and blush pastels are not just for summer. Seen on the catwalk at Acne, Jil Sander, Valentino and Rodarte this colour palette is altogether softer and more feminine, so cosy up in a mint green mohair knit or a lilac cashmere coat.

Here are some of our favourite pieces to buy now:

B&T talks to Antonia O’Brien

ANTONIA O’BRIEN: TV PRESENTER & FASHION STYLIST

Bees & Taylor asks Antonia to give the low-down on all things London Fashion Weekend and her upcoming gig in the ‘Vodafone Lounge’:

How has September come around so quickly?

With the new spring summer collections walking the catwalks in the coming weeks, it is a very busy month in the fashion calender. One date you have to pencil into your diary is London Fashion Weekend – aka Britain’s biggest and most exciting shopping, fashion and style experience. Kicking off in the tents at Somerset House on Thursday 18th September once London Fashion Week has drawn to a close, there are designer catwalks, pop-up boutiques and exclusive industry talks; this is where I come in.

This will be my third season hosting the Vodafone Lounge where I speak to fashion industry insiders including stylists, designers and bloggers with past guests including journalist Hilary Alexander, designer Maria Grachvogel and stylist Grace Woodward. Whether you pop in for a front row catwalk experience or to browse the shops I look forward to seeing you there!
