Inside the house

Ten days later, and the London edition of the Jacques Townhouse was a smashing success!








And what a ten days! If you came and saw the house for yourself, I hope you enjoyed it. We all worked tirelessly to make sure everyone who came had a brilliant time, and I'm pleased to say it all went really well. I would also like to thank my three amazing assistants - (from left to right) Alex, Hannah and Akeela - for all of their incredible hard work and support throughout the event. I couldn't have done it without them! Oh, and Terence Webb, our incredible photographer.

If you didn't manage to make it to the London house, I've made a little video to show you around - check it out:



And don't forget - if you live in the north of our fair country, you can still get tickets for the Liverpool Townhouse! Just head over to www.facebook.com/Jacques to apply. And if you do come, don't forget to pop along to the Wardrobe of Wonders and say hello!

Tomorrow it begins...


Tomorrow sees the launch of Jacques Townhouse in London! As blogged previously, I will be the in-house stylist for all 10 days of the event this year, and I am very excited. In fact, I am more giddy. I just know the event is going to be amazing, and I'm truly honoured to be involved.

I will also be there for the Liverpool house in August, and there are still some tickets available - if you fancy coming along, head over to the Jacques Facebook page to apply.

If you have tickets for either location, please swing by the wardrobe room and say hello! I promise to great with you a smile and some beautiful clothes to try on.

Behind the scenes: photoshoot with SJ Walton

Recently I styled a photoshoot for SJ Walton. We had been planning it for such a long time, but of course when it came to the big day we were met with torrential rain - always fun when shooting on location!


We were shooting at Hampstead Heath, and fortunately there was some shelter for us! There were even periods of sunshine, so it all turned out well in the end. The theme for the shoot was pretty and light, with lots of natural and soft colours. We were extremely lucky to feature some incredible pieces by some of my favourite independent designers, including Elizabeth Lau, Kirsty Ward and Charlotte Taylor.











It was a tough day, but it was still a lot of fun - thanks ladies! You were amazing.

Photographer: SJ Walton
Model: Lykke (M and P Models)
Make up and hair: Jenni Delfaco

I will hopefully be able to share the final photos with you all, so please come back soon to have a look!
