HOLIDAY MUST HAVES

Holiday season is fast approaching, here’s our guide on must have items for a perfectly packed suitcase:

• Prepare your outfits for travelling. A key item is the Mazu Parka in Bark it’s light weight so can be worn on top of a t-shirt to keep you cool and dry, and the multiple pockets come in handy for your passport, guide books, and sunnies. With a drawstring travel bag it’s easy to stow when the sun is shining.
• The Leopard Shimmer & Dove Tote is fashionably practical hand-luggage whether on the plane or the beach.
• If you’re a touristy tourist and love having a wander, the Aruna Cerise Dress teamed with the Golden Shimmer Sandals can take you through from beach to bar.
• Or if you’re sightseeing our Chambray Lace Up Pumps are perfect for pounding city pavements.
• Need a cover up for the beach or a wrap for the evening? The Wandering Elephant Scarf is stylish and versatile.
• Make up! – Some of us get away with a bare face but here at HQ we like to take a few essentials (our picks include tinted moisturiser, waterproof mascara, eye liner, blusher and two lipsticks (one nude and one bright)).  Oh and don’t forget a protective SPF lip balm for the beach. The Orchid Pink Filigree Make Up Bag is great for keeping all these bits together amongst all of your clothes and accessories.
• Slippers for around your hotel are great for the room to spa dash. Make a statement with the Impressions Bow Mule.

LONDON FASHION WEEK

This time last week we were in the middle of Somerset House rubbing shoulders with some of the top stylists and fashion bloggers at London Fashion Week. Tanya, our PR & Marketing Assistant centered her outfit around her Jet fur gilet (third picture along).

Tanya managed to meet up with the lovely girls from Your Coffee Break down in London to have a good catch up over a lovely cup of coffee! The girls have always been really supportive of the brand so we loved seeing Charlotte (bottom right) rock our Mink Cossack Hat at London Fashion Week, doesn't she look great! 

Whilst queueing for the KTZ Show we recognised a familiar face wearing Ruby+Ed. Spotted in Somerset house looking effortlessly cool and very on trend was music and fashion blogger Karis Jones from bettersungthansaid, sporting a tartan cropped jacket and monochrome jogging pants. Karis was wearing our Bzyantine Tee and Wolf fur snood. When she caught our eye we had to ask what she thought of the Ruby+Ed AW13 Collection. Karis told us that she has always been a huge fan of the brand after being given a pair of slippers as a gift. “The collection is beautifully versatile, I love my velvet ballerina slippers but I have to shout out about the embroidered tee shirt collection, the design and hand crafted workmanship is absolutely beautiful, I had to get this one and I have my eye on the Long Sleeve Tee in Jet and also the Jet Gilet.”

Our time at fashion week had us wishing it was Summer again, the pretty pastels were charged this season with an outstanding palette of duck egg blues, spearmint greens and soft violets seen on the catwalks of Burberry, Christopher Kane and David Koma. The schoolgirl pleats also had a comeback on the catwalks of Jonathan Saunders, the premium fabrics and foiled finishes were something that we were all lusting over for next season. For those who can’t wait until then our Illusions Skirt features a digital print and is loose fitting giving the illusion of flowing pleats. We are also in love with the floral prints and 3D blooms on the catwalks, seen on various runways including Matthew Williamson, J.W Anderson and Eudon Choi. We have always loved what a flowery flair can do to a garment so brace yourself for Ruby+Ed’s SS14 Collection.
