About to get married, why not let Pristine Cleaners take care of all your cleaning needs…..

Have you ever had one of those experiences, where you’ve just been to the sooo called ‘wedding-of-the-year’ –you soooo can’t remember what the bride wore –but can distinctly recall being roped into cleaning up the hall at around 1.30am –when you’re tired and ready for bed!!!

It’s such a shame but without proper planning and cleaning arrangements all some folks remember about some weddings (and other major events) is not what the bride wore, or the best man’s speech or the beautiful wedding cake –but being handed a black dustbin bag and having to clean up the banqueting hall after a lovely wedding. And that’s not what any blushing bride wants their guest s to remember about her ‘big day’. Well Pristine Cleaners Ltd, a smart cleaning company based in north London has the solution and offers an ‘after party Cleaning Service’ that covers the whole of London.

Available at a minutes notice, 24 hours a day,  7 days a week and from as little as £15 an hour per person depending how big your wedding venue is, Pristine Cleaners will take care of your cleaning needs “doing all the hard work so you” and your guest don’t have to.
Pristine Cleaners has a large team of friendly professional police vetted cleaning staff and provides a host of hassle free cleaning services at a minutes notice, 24 hours a day including: residential and commercial cleaning, after builders and end of tenancy cleaning, a key holder service and much more.

Remember, you may have the venue, the caterers, the florist, the dress and the invitations have all been sent out but have you made any cleaning arrangements? Don’t allow the ‘cleaning’ to be the lasting memory of your gorgeous wedding day contact Pristine Cleaners via: http://www.pristinecleaners.co.uk/

Adjoa Osei -fashion’s new darling…

“Adapt: Reshaping the way we view and wear prints. Adapt is an eight piece, limited edition capsule collection with hand woven detail. The focus of Adapt is clean lines and classic shapes with injections of print, colour and detail. As a prelude to the winter collection, Adapt explores the different ways that smart/casual wear can be enhanced by African print. Gone are the days when prints were sporadically featured in 'safari' inspired collections or dusted off for cultural celebrations. Prints defy seasonal trends, and can be dressed up or pared down. The options are infinite. Season by season, trend by trend, I invite you to join me in this creative dialogue.” Adjoa Osei

Elegant, modern and a-must, I’m loving this new eight piece, limited edition capsule collection called Adapt by Adjoa Osei. Alerted by one of London’s uber stylish, Emefa Anthony -to check out her new label crush, Adjoa Osei is now Fashion et al’s label du jour. Just feast your eye on the above pieces. The style, cut, details and colours are on-trend for A/W 2011, something that many so called African labels are not. I’m looking forward to shooting some of the pieces for Black Star magazine.

Elle Fanning in Valentino

Fabulous! Fun. young, fresh and uber stylish…


Leelee Sobieski in Vionnet

Wow -Leelee! When I dream -this is how I’m dressed.


Chanel Iman in Dolce & Gabbana

For some, Chanel’s not dressy enough but for moi -she looks fresh, young and happy -just beautiful, and the Chanel bag and shoes are lush!


Milla Jovovich in Marni

Milla looks neat, fresh and rested in her LBD. Wow -what a transformation from last year -when she looked pale and worn out. Good for you Milla xx


Madonna in Stella McCartney

Its OK. Its age appropriate… ..


Chloe Sevigny in Alexander McQueen

I like!….very fashion, very Chloe!!


Ginnifer Goodwin in Topshop Unique

Ginnifer Goodwin is new to my radar but I love her already. The whole look is young and fabulous -and its kind of made my day -nothing desperate here. Bravo Ginnifer…


Daphne Guinness in Alexander McQueen

I don’t care what anybody thinks (nor does Mz Daphne) but I think she looks amazing. I’m loving all the feathers…plus it makes me dream -lovely x


Anna Wintour in Chanel Couture..

I’m loving the whole look -Anna was undeniably the best dressed at the Met Gala 2011 soiree. Viva la Diva…


Tory Burch and Kanye West

Fabulousity all around …


Liv Tyler in Givenchy Couture

Wow, all grown-up and elegant! -I love the whole look, -just lovely!



Frieda Pinto in Chanel

Wow sexy gal… I love the whole look…


Zoe Saldana in Calvin Klein…

Lovely, just lovely…neat, sleek and elegant..


Janelle Monae in Chanel

All good…



Alexa Chung in Christopher Kane..

Alexa looks lovely but I’m beginning -slowly to not care about what she’s wearing!


Hilary Rhoda in Alexander McQueen…

I love this look but I also feel -she looks kind of naked!


Miranda Kerr in Marchesa

 I love, love, love this look -but then I’m a big fan of La Kerr -she’s soo beautiful! My mate Miss jagger-jagger hates the dress -but personally, it makes me dream -it all soft and lovely.



Those who got it very wrong..

Rihanna in Stella McCartney..

Ghetto I’m afraid, -is no longer fabulous -RiRi…


Keri Hilson in Atelier Versace..

Young with a killer body -and this is the best Keri can do! Back to style school -missy. Next time -think young, fresh and killer silhouette!


Eva Mendes in Stella McCartney...

What is going on here? I don’t know where to start -so I won’t!


Jessica Szohr in Topshop Unique

What a let down! I’m shocked because Jessica usually gets it right…


Ciara in Prabal Gurung…

Ciara’s a beautiful young gal but she's never made my fashionista list -and judging by this busty, hard, over accessorised look, -she never will. The face looks ok though!


Kirsten Dunst in Chanel

What is this? Why did she bother?


Joy Bryant in Missoni

Pretty make-up, romantic hair, lovely earrings -what’s going on with the dress? Joy is such a special gal -a Fashion et al fav but I’m disappointed with this look!



Fabulous Style, Bad Hair

Iman in Stella McCartney 

I know, I know -its not a bad look but that bleached blonde BIG hair -why? A neat dark ponytail would have perfected this look. Still love you Iman but let the big fake, blonde weave thingy -gooooo oOOO….


Solange Knowles in Dries Van Noten

It wouldn’t take a lot to mix this look up and get it right. Can you image if Mz Solange still had her short natural hair, went lighter on the make-up -then added the dress -the silhouette would be fierce fabulous!


Kerry Washington

Sexy dress, poodle hair.....yep, bad hair happens to good people..…better luck next time!


Those who can wear whatever they want because they are sacred and fabulous...

Jennifer Hudson in Vera Wang

 La Hudson’s ’s skin, hair and make-up’s magic. This sister has come a long way and I love her. Jen’s wearing the ubiquitous ball-grown (yawn), and even though I‘m liking the top half -I detest the wannabe wedding-gown thingy going on -at the bottom.


Naomi Campbell in Alexander McQueen

La Campbell usually get it right but she had an off day -and I love her for it..

The "Alexander McQueen: Savage Beauty" Costume Institute Gala at The Metropolitan Museum of Art took place on 2nd May 2011 in NYC and the above personas attended. Did they get it right? *All photos courtesy of Zimbo.Com...

What’s going on at Balmain??

I’ve always had a thing for Balmain…-with its uber voltage glamour, exclusive waiting list, the mini dresses, its rock’n’roll verve -who doesn’t love them??? Well the hotly talented Christophe Decarnin has left Balmain -and I just don’t know! I still have aspirations for wearing one of their f&%* me dresses when I get to size eight! I’ll be keeping a close eye on this fashion house -and will keep you in the loop.....

Fashion et al Hearts Angela Simmons



Daughter of, girlfriend of, sister of, niece of -‘Pastry’ shoe designer, Angela Simmons is uber cute -and most definitely a fashion star in the making.
