Fruity Fashion : Pineapple Trend

We're all brought up to follow a healthy diet inclusive of the all important 5 a day - if I'm being honest I normally opt for fruit over veg to fulfil my daily quota ... mango madness with a passionfruit side vs steamed cabbage with a couple of courgettes = no competition! But, what happens if you have a manic day ahead of you packed with back-to-back meetings and hundreds of emails to get through? How do you find the time to get your dose of fruity goodness? Well this is where the latest tutti-fruity trend comes to the rescue - pineapples! If you don't have time to consume the goodness then the next best thing is to rock the goodness in fashion form...!

Over the years the supermarket fruit aisle has been a common source of inspiration for many designers. We had Stella McCartney who added a dash of zesty citrus chic to the catwalks...

 
 
Then there was Prada going nanas over bananas... 
 

But this season is all about the pineapple! 



Us Mice have searched high and low to bring you the most juicy, fruity finds - from sun dresses to accessories to house trinkets and even present tags ... you name it, we've found it! Enjoy!

Nail Trend : Shades of White not Grey...

When it comes to nails us Mice deem it illegal to leave the house with naked nails – that’s both hands and feet people! We have bathroom cabinets busting at the hinges under the weight of the many varnishes we collectively own, thanks to a new nail trend hitting practically every week … It’s hard to keep up! So what’s top of the pops when it comes to nails? Well we’re happy to share it’s ALL about minimalistic Tipp-Ex white. 

Both Rag & Bone and Moschino opened our eyes to the trend during their Spring 2013 catwalks and it’s snowballed from there...




It would seem that the fash pack catwalk queens have somewhat influenced the celebrities of our world too. Check out Emmy Rossum, Lea Michele and Scarlett Johansson all rocking white-out nails…


 



Follow our 3BM top tips to make sure you nail the trend…

1. Opaques Vs Sheer Shades – opt for a couple of coats to make sure the outcome is bold and streak free.

2. Pair with a tan - there’s nothing worse than pasty white-on-white

3. Avoid the shakes – paint with care or you could run the risk of looking TOWIE-esque or end up with a shoddy, back-of-the classroom type look!


4. The shorter the better - long, white talons are trashy, keep them short and sweet for a classy look

The proof of the pudding is in the painting so here's our attempt at the snowy whiter than white trend...

Winter Warmers...

Winter has officially set in here in London, the clocks have gone back and you no longer see even an hour of daylight. You leave in the morning in the pitch black and as you pack your satchel for hometime at the end of the day, it's also dark...depressing! Even more depressing perhaps is that now's the time that you naturally pile on the pounds...exercise in these temperatures is a complete no go and cold crunchy salads are the last thing on the menu each evening - instead creamy mash, hearty stews, roast dinners and shephards pie are staples...basically anything fattening and carb filled unfortunately!

So as thoughtful as ever, we have come up with the best solution! One that will make you happy, takes zero energy (you need all you have to keep you warm!), makes you look good with the oversized, drapey styling and makes you feel SUPER cosy!! It can only be 3BM's cosy cashmere lust list of course!

Firstly if you are saving the pennies right now you may want to stop reading this post now...there is some serious cashmere candy coming up and it will stretch that overdraft limit considerably!

I became addicted after owning my first cashmere tracksuit from M&S - at £250 a pop they don't come cheap but they are definately worth it! The words 'Footballers' and 'Wives' might spring to mind when you hear tracksuit, however I only agree when worn in public with ugg boots! I on the other hand save mine for freezing winter evenings at home after a hard day at work when all you need is a comfy night wrapped up on the sofa with feel good TV, a glass of red wine and a bowl full of sausages and mash! Even better M&S presents you with a cashmere tracksuit that can be machine washed...perfection! Since then I have been sold and have my eyes currently peeled for my new cashmere capsule wardrobe...!

See our top picks available now...you know you want some...! If you're residing in hotter climates i.e HK, you may be on the beach now, but it will get chilly soon, and until then whack up the air conditioning until your teeth are chattering - there is ALWAYS an excuse when we're talking cashmere! 

First up, this gorgeous sleeveless cardigan, everything that cashmere should be - chic, beautiful and expensive...!
