Autumn/Winter13 is right around the corner and our new stock has just landed in the studio (exciting!!) We have everything you could ever want for this up and coming season. First up though is small sneak peek of our faux leather range!

Leather has always been one of the biggest a/w trends, and this year is no exception! However it is very pricey, so faux leather is an amazing alternative! We have a gorgeous range of faux leathers in this year including pencil skirts, dresses and cropped boxy jackets so far!

First up we have this gorgeous pencil skirt (also available in deep cranberry) It is such a beautiful skirt and slightly matte in texture, it has unique exposed zip detail down the back of the skirt too. Pencil skirts are very versatile they can be dressed up or down, for work or for a night out, and this faux leather one is no exception! We have styled it with a loose fitting drape blouse in of the moment colour deep blue keeping it very simple, a lot of people say don’t pair black and blue, however rules were made to be broken we love this look!Next up we have the first of our faux leather dresses. This dress is the same material as the pencil skirt above, being slighty matte in texture. It has gorgeous metal studded detailing at the waist, which draws your eye in giving the illusion of you being slimmer, very flattering! It also has a v neck which is good for women with a bigger bust. This is our second faux leather dress, this time it has a bit of a sheen to it. The quilted fabric detailing on this dress makes it more interesting, and looks absolutely gorgeous on as it hugs your curves perfectly, it is to die for! Quilting is also set to be a future trend next season! Again, the way the quilted fabric has been placed it gives the illusion of a slimmer silhouette. Our last faux leather garment is this amazing biker style jacket! This is our favourite piece from the range so far! It looks absolutely stunning on, its boxy, cropped, has a gorgeous neckline and is extremely comfortable, everything you could ever want in a faux leather jacket, it fits like a glove! It could easily be dressed down with your killer jeans and a tee or dressed up with your fave LBD!What is your favourite piece from our faux leather range so far?!

OOTD; Summer Vibes

August 14, 2013 / Love Niche Style / Leave a comment

With summer slowly fading away we are desperately trying to keep it here for as long as we can! Today’s look has definitely got those relaxed casual summer vibes, double denim, pop of colour, cool light fabrics layered!

Double denim is mostly a summer trend, and can only really be pulled off if the denim is broken up by another colour, so this Love Niche white twin set is perfect, its lightweight with gorgeous embroidery and the ideal garment for adding layers and texture to an outfit. As always a girl needs her bling, layering bracelets is another way to add dimensions to an outfit!

The neon shoes (major trend!) and the bright pink bag add that pop of colour which is needed in this outfit to stop it from being boring, clashing the two colours is daring, but it works with this look!

What do you think of this summer look?

We have already given you our tips on styling while you are on holiday, how to pack your suitcase and what type of bikini suits your body shape, so now here are our tips for how to dress while traveling to your holiday destination!

When traveling your style should not have to be compromised! You can still travel in style using our guide;

Wear well fitted trousers that have extra stretch in for comfort
Wear a loose fitting top so you feel relaxed and don’t get too warm
Take a jacket or blazer with you while on the plane as it can get very cold in the air
A scarf is the perfect accessory to keep you warm if you haven’t packed a jacket
Make sure you take a large bag to keep all your travel necessities in, including your travel organiser (make sure you check out our post on what to take in your organiser!)

This first look features our best selling indigo ultimate stretch jeans! They are super versatile and comfortable. With them being a dark indigo wash we have teamed them with a light print top and our favourite white summer coat.

Look 2 is the same as look 1 just swapping the summer coat for a neutral colour scarf with beautiful delicate lace trim. When wearing a printed top its best to keep your accessories plain and simple.

Look 3 again with the indigo stretch jeans, this time with our best selling drape top in lime! The light weight fabric makes this top extremely comfortable while being bang on trend with the bright colour. Adding the snake print scarf relaxes the outfit and adds extra warmth.

Look 4 is our final look, white on white. White is a major trend this summer and looks as though it is here to stay through to next year so this is the perfect look. These skinny white jeans have extra stretch in them to make them very comfortable and fit perfectly. Adding the coloured layered tops breaks up the white and also gives extra warmth.

Make sure you check out last weeks style tip on how to pack a capsule holiday wardrobe!

It’s still holiday season and in the studio we always get asked how to create an evening capsule wardrobe while away on holiday, so here are some of our favourite looks we have pulled together.

Look 1; We have the Love Niche best seller – the drape dipped hem blouse, its lightweight, comes in many colours, prints and can be worn lots of ways as it is easy to style. We have paired it with this gorgeous zebra print skirt, a simple pendant necklace and a sequin bag for a bit of glitz and glam!

Look 2 again with the drape top, this time we have styled it with must have killer white jeans! White jeans are a holiday must have, they have to be lightweight and fit perfectly. Jeans are the most versatile item anybody can have in their wardrobe, and white jeans are a MUST for any holiday! Again we accessorised with the simple black pendant necklace, but this time we added another colour with the blue chillis bag.

Look 3 is one of our favourite looks. Who said kaftans were just for daytime…we love layering open kaftans for an evening when it can get a little bit chilly! We have turned up the jeans to give this look a more relaxed feel, a simple white vest, the sheer bold print kaftan is quite boho chic, so we layered some Love Niche necklaces to style up this look. Paired with some killer wedges this is a fab evening look if you like to try something new, this is definitely a head turner.

Look 4, and the last look with white jeans. This is a classic take on the white jeans, paired with a split sleeve black top for a monochrome look. To stop this look being too conservative we accessorised with one of our statement Outhouse necklaces which is neon green to add a pop of colour, and the sequin bag again for a bit more glam!

The final look is another simple yet eye catching outfit! We have paired the zebra print skirt from look 1 and the black split sleeve top from look 4. We have let the skirt do all the talking and kept it simple, to make this look a bit edgy we added the amazing outhouse lion head collar style necklace (one of our faves!!!) To finish off this look just add some killer heels, tousled beach wavy hair and a pop of colour through lipstick!

A lot of people have a fear of maxi dresses and skirts, and you really shouldn’t! They are extremely flattering, they lengthen and slim, and who doesn’t want to look taller and slimmer!! Also a lot of petite women think that maxi garments aren’t appropriate for them, but you couldn’t be more wrong.

Here at Love Niche, we have a gorgeous range of maxi dresses, in all cuts, shapes, sizes and prints! Below are some examples of our different styles.

First up we have this gorgeous monochrome printed maxi, with ruffle detailing around the neck, very flattering on a smaller bust especially. The Made from beautiful light fabric, it is the perfect holiday evening maxi, as it cool and bang on trend!

Close up detail of the neckline..

Next we have a beautiful jersey maxi, which is actually neon printed. It has a very flattering knot tie at the waist to skim over the stomach (perfect if your stomach is a “problem” area ladies!) Close up of the neon colour in the print, again another beautiful maxi that would be ideal for going away on holiday, also gorgeous for a night out with the girls.This white cotton strapless maxi is a fave of ours, it was a late summer arrival and is the most gorgeous cover up for holiday either going from the beach to the bar or wandering around markets shopping.

Close up of the bust sequin detail…This last maxi dress is not for those who fear colour, it is bold bright and beautiful! The exotic print on this maxi it totally unique, the split sleeves and diamante details add another dimension to this dress, it is a ‘wow’ outfit!

Thank you for reading, LOVE team NICHE xox

Let your jewels take centre stage

Whatever your style, great accessories are a highly personalised way to express your creative fashion personality and find your fashion bliss.

Great accessorising reflects and compliments your style on multi-facetted levels, at times shamelessly taking centre stage with head-turning self confidence. In the words of the iconic celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe “Accessorises are the antidote to blah!” And this alone is a great reason to add a little BLING into your personal style. Accessories will add a complete approach to your styling repertoire adding versatility to your wardrobe. For instance a statement necklace can transform the mood of an outfit from “office” to understated glam in a twinkling!

If your evening dress is a stark stunner (or has a lot of embellishment), one single showstopping accessory, like Grace Kelly‘s earrings, is all you need.

When deciding to add accessorising to your style skills-set, remember that as with all thing fashion there are no hard fastened rules, and rules are made to be broken… aren’t they? But a word of warning! Accessorising is Addictive and it’s the perfect way to add that personal touch to an outfit. In essence accessories are the finishing touch that will leave you feeling styled.

We have just received a fabulous range of our Bling at Love Niche. Stunning Statement pieces in 92.5 silver and in exclusive Stones like Smoky Labrodorit, calsedon , Barok Pearls, Green kuarts, Die kuarts pink and Turkuaz perl to name a few.

Here our some pictures to tease you

A tip before we go

When wearing large and colorful statement jewelry, try to keep your clothing a solid color – no crazy patterns or florals. Wearing a coloured piece of jewel is how you can add colour through accessories(we did a post about it earlier, to read all about it Click here )and keep your other jewellery, accessories and your makeup toned down and elegant or else it takes the attention away from your gorgeous jewelry!

Hope you enjoyed reading our post.

Summer is already here…! And you have decided to spend some holidays in a wonderful area surrounded by heavenly beaches with sun shining bright on you. There you want to flaunt your new bikinis and swimsuits and look glamorously hot.
Looking glamorous on the beach needn’t be a chore – a few simple fashion tips that anyone can follow will help you achieve that sexy, sun-kissed, glamorously chic look that will take you from beach to bar with ease.

These can include a beach bag, some killer sunglasses, a comfy beach towel, gorgeous flip-flops, wedges, Audrey Hepburn style sunhats, fun colourful jewellery, a flattering swimsuit that’s suitable for your body shape (We did a post on it before. Click here to read all about it). But for us the list doesn’t end here.

These days Every wise girl knows a trip to the beach is incomplete without some form of beach cover up – something floaty and fabulous to pull on over your swimsuit between sunbathing sessions. Hence for that ultimate chic glamorous, we feel you need some flowing kaftans that will instantly take you from the beach to the bar and make you look at feel fabulous.

This Summer we launched our range of Cruise/resort wear Niche by Nisha Vedhara for Newcastle fashion week 2013. Click here for the designers launch interview with Etc magazine<a title= The theme of the collection was “Beach to the Bar” the collection consisted of some fun accessorised bikinis and kaftans in flowing fabrics like georgette, silk chiffon, colourful prints, beaded necklines, tassel etc. We are so proud to share that the collection was hugely appreciated and has been extremely popular 🙂 Click here for some more pictures from the launch event.

Present in every fashionable girls beach bag, the kaftan is quickly overtaking the sarong this summer as the perfect way to cover up on the beach. Traditionally, a full length and voluminous silhouette is best but new variants on the kaftan include shorter, straighter shapes, billowing sleeves and plunging, embellished necklines. Adapt your cover up from day to night by adding some clever accessories – wear a wide belt pulling the kaftan in at the waist for a sexy hourglass style or pull on some shimmering metallic sandals or wedges for a chic evening look.

Here is a glimpse of our collections of silk kaftans that will make you look and feel amazing, to take you from daytime to evening in a matter of seconds. The collection is available for purchase at the Love Niche studio

Top tip- The sequin and beaded details draws the eye to the neckline creating a fabulous slim silhouette.

Kaftans- The ultimate must-have holiday essential to bring glamour to the beach…and then to the bar 😉 Click here to see some more pictures from the collection.

Ever feel stuck in a rut when it comes to colour? Maybe it’s because you don’t know what to put with what or sometimes wearing a bright, bold or different colour feels too overwhelming for you and as if you’ll draw too much attention to yourself. We suggest you start by introducing colour through adding subtle hints. Either through Accessories- like a handbag, shoes, sunglasses, a bright watch or a bold bra peek out or maybe a bright bold vest. Our pick of the week is a neon vest.

This Black drape top shown below is one of our Best Selling tops available for purchase at the Love Niche Studio. Here is how we added a subtle hint of colour to a basic Black and white outfit. The neon just peeps through from the front cut and similarly from the back. For the ones who say we dont do colour, we suggest you try this, its subtle showcasing of colour but it can simply brighten up your day.

And for the ones who feel they can carry more colour than that. Here is another pick. An Aztec print drape top with neon orange trim. Surely to grab attention and make heads turn 😉

Colour is fun embrace it and enjoy it. Here is a food of thought before we go…

Hope you Enjoyed our post. xx

Here are two of our favourite ‘summer coats’ from our Love Niche collection. First is our take on the classic Mac, its light and easy to put on over any outfit. The over-sized statement collar gives this coat an edgy twist. (Also available in black) Secondly we have this white linen jacket. Again it is light and easy to pop for a casual daytime look, the tie at the back pulls the jacket in to make it more flattering and fitted.

Before you can go and pick your perfect summer bikini you need to know your body shape. There are many categories that you can fit into but the main four are; Athletic, Straight, Pear and Curvy.

Athletic – You tend to have broad shoulders, narrow hips and fairly muscular legs.
Straight – You have few curves, your waist and hips are pretty much the exact same measurements.
Pear – Your bottom half is wider and you are very petite on top with narrow shoulders.
Curvy – You are an hourglass shape and are in proportion, with your shoulders and hips measuring the same with a smaller waist, creating the curves.

This emerald green bikini is ideal for an athletic figure, it will show off their perfectly toned torso and slight figure, yet creates a bust with the padded under-wire cups on the bikini top. The tassel detail sides on the bikini bottoms also make hips appear wider, giving the illusion of more curves. Pass on bandeau tops as they will squish you down and make you look too boyish, also avoid the boy shorts and shapeless tankinis! You’re lucky though as you can get away with bold printed bikinis!

If you are a straight shape then this yellow ruffled bikini would be ideal. The embellished ruffled bikini top fills out the bust area giving the impression of bigger boobs. The tie sides are also good for your shape giving the illusion of more curves. Avoid bandeau tops with no neck straps and boy shorts! You and athletic shapes can also carry off bold bright prints effortlessly!

If you are a pear shape, then you are one of the only shapes that can pull of the bandeau bikini top! The bandeau makes your bust look wider giving the impression that you are more hourglass than pear. The detailing on this bikini draws your eye up towards your bust and away from your wider hips. The solid colour minimizes your bigger bottom half and slims you down. When buying your bikini make sure you don’t buy bottoms with a bold print, try and keep to solid colours.

The high waisted bikini is the original pinup style, and has be reinvented for 2013 with lots of styles available. The pinup style is hourglass, and a high waisted bikini accentuates the curves of an hourglass figure. The high leg bottom gives you longer legs and the ruffles on this bottom will secure your stomach if that is a problem area. The bikini top is a simple bandeau halter neck which will secure your bust. But with an hourglass shape make sure you buy in solid colours or very small print otherwise it will distort your proportions!
