Parisian Adventure!

This week QLB style travelled to Paris, leaving at 5am on what turned out to be the only Eurostar of the day! As we came out of the tunnel in France we were welcomed by a winter wonderland. This winter wonderland caused an 8 hour delay and after a 3 hour stop in Lille we finally arrived in Paris at 16.30 pm! 

The meeting went ahead as planned although slightly later, lunch became dinner and a day trip turned into an over night trip!

Absolutely no complaints from the QLB style team who said it was a pleasure to be stranded in Paris. They took it in their stride & followed the MD of QLB designs wise advice.  

....'No matter what happends... Never scrimp on the cheese and wine'....

The advise was followed accordingly ...

Monday!...

Spring will be with us soon, so listen to a happy tune and have a brilliant week!...

What's your style?

We think this quote by Ralph Lauren summarises our idea of what 'timeless' is in the fashion world.

Style is knowing who you are, where you've been and what you want to say.

Your own personal style is an expression of individulism. It is your own personal signiture. So why not make your look stand out, make your wardrobe choices different and your style a little quirky!.... As we believe that "Style is a way to say who you are without actually having to speak" - Rachel Zoe

Baby Beckham for Burberry!

Romeo Beckham, the 10-year-old son of David and Victoria Beckham, posed for pictures for the Burberry Spring/Summer 2013 campaign video shoot, which was shot by famed photographer Mario Testino.

We think he is just perfect for the position, such a little natural in front of the camera, and with parents like his, who wouldn't be! 
Romeo is said to be the most fashion conscious of all the young Beckham boys, proud dad David explains; 'Brooklyn will just wear his soccer shirts and T-shirts, but Romeo is the fashion one, so he'll go for skinny jeans and a vintage T-shirt and funny hats. One Christmas he asked for a pair of Spats shoes.' And who could forget when GQ magazine included him in its best-dressed men of the year list in January 2011?!
Watch him in the BURBERRY CAMPAIGN VIDEO HERE!
