Jubilee Excitement

I am VERY excited that this weekend is Jubilee weekend. I am loving how everyone is getting involved i.e street parties, BBQ's and then there is fashion! Have you seen all the cool window displays?? 

Below are pictures I took on my phone of the Primark window









There are lots of nice window displays around  BUT my favourite window display has to be Harvey Nichols! They really have pulled out all the stops!  Here is a quote from Janet Wardley, Harvey Nichols’ Head of Visual Display.

"We wanted our Jubilee windows have a vintage 1950′s feel about them to reflect on the era of the Queen’s coronation while also referencing this season’s ladylike fashion,” This window scheme been one of the most fun to conceptualize – it’s a striking contrast to the contemporary approach we normally take with our installations, but retains our distinctly tongue-in-cheek sense of humour!”

Here some pics below. I am sure you will agree that there window is truly inspiring, innovative and fab!

Also you might have noticed that there are soo many  British inspired products kicking around, ranging from union jack tees to studded union jack tights!

Animal print love!!

 Ooh don't you love rediscovering a fab item in your wardrobe? Last week I 'found' this dress in my wardrobe, squashed right at the back! It was just at the right time when I was faffing, trying to decide what to wear for a lunch date with the girls. As you can see I was VERY happy that I 'found'  this Animal print beautie.





I teamed my animal print maxi with my fave studded leather Jacket. (Excuse my rail at the back ground)



I love how glam this dress makes me feel! its light and floaty and really long so I wore my John Rocha  high boots. The picture of  me wearing the boots came out really blurry so I have not included it.
I defo need a new camera!!!!

Skipping out of the house to meet the girls, I must admit I was feeling pleased with my wardrobe find but  then 2  things occurred to me:
1-I think its time I do a spring clear out... infact it's way over due!!!!!!
2-I hope it doesn't rain.

Crazy-Stupid-Love


Like many women, I have serious addiction to shoes!! high heels, wedges, platforms, boots, flatforms, the occasional flat shoe although I do prefer brogues or a low heeled boot rather than pumps... I love nothing more than buying a fab pair of shoes!

When did I fall in love with shoes?  Ummm I would probably have to say it was at age 16 when I went with my big sis to the Bentall shoppping centre in Kingston, we stumbled across a sale in Faith shoe shop and I remembering coming home with 4 pairs of shoes! Hmmm so maybe my sister is to blame for this addiction lol!  At the time I was at Kingston college so I would often pop into faith on my lunch break, if my memory serves me correctly I remember coming home with 1-2 pairs of shoes everyday until the Faith sale ended and that sale went on for 1 month. Now if you do the maths, you will work out that I ended up with LOTS of shoes!!

I still remember when my brother helped me move (whilst I was at work) I then came home and he shook his head at me and told me how he could not believe how many shoes  I had been 'hiding'. This then led to my uncle giving me the nickname 'shoe-na' which is why my blog is called 'Just call me shoena' .

I always get asked how many shoes I own, truth is I don't really know as I've lost count... But if I am honest its not that important as a girl can never have too many shoes, right?

At the moment I am SOOOO loving Jeffrey Campbell shoes, below are some of my faves!


Jeffrey Campbell  Roque sandal  £105.53























Jeffrey Campbell Lita boots, £105.53


Jeffrey Campbell  Rockaway sandal, £140.65
























Jeffrey Campbell Virgo wedge platform mule, £93.75
























Jeffrey Campbell Foxy fab sandal , £90.40
































How gorge are these shoes??? which are your faves??


My name is Sheena Shoe-na and I have CRAZY-STUPID-LOVE for shoes!!!!





Please can you 'Gok Wan' me?



I have been meaning to post this blog for ummm 1 month. Opps! Well as the saying goes... better late than never.

Last month one of my besties asked me to ‘Gok wan’ her aka give her a style makeover/update. Of course I jumped at the chance, those that know me will know how much I LOVE styling and offering my style advice whenever I can!!
We didn’t have much time as I had a meeting at 4pm BUT we did get manage to pick up lots of lovely items. I chose to shop at Topshop (Oxford circus) as not only is it our fave shop BUT it’s easy place to shop as there is soooooo much under one roof. Plus we could also pop into Miss Selfridge next door and try on all the clothes at the same time.
My friend has a fab figure but always tends to just throw on jeans and ugg boots, grrr. Although when she does get dressed up she looks fab!! I am always telling her that she needs to have fun with her day time look more often instead of just opting for jeans and a top AND I am always begging her to get her legs out more. Haaa I am not bossy friend!!
 
We had such a fun time, spending way too much of her hard earned money on lots of great items and the best part?? She wants to do it all again, yay!! So next week we are going on another ‘gok wan’ shopping trip, or should that be another ‘ Shoe-na style ‘ shopping  trip?!
Look out for the post on here!


Below are some of the items we bought.












My friend work-ing it in two of the items we bought :)
How HOT does she look in the dress?!!
