Recently The Lipstick Girl has been in contact with the lovely brand Love From Cyprus after discovering them on Twitter.
As a supporter of emerging designers and brands, it is an honour to be promoting this local designer shop encouraging beautiful designs, fashion and crafts.
LoveFromCyprus.com is a curated online store founded by graphic designer and blogger, Anastasia Gerali. The shop aims to promote authentic Cypriot products, all locally crafted by Cypriot designers and craftsmen. In 2013, Anastasia launched her own leather sandal collection – LFC. LFC sandals are all handmade by local craftsmen in genuine leather. A rubber heel provides stability to the leather sole. Classical Greek sandal styles with a modern twist showcase Cypriot craft and quality. Each pair is handmade by local craftsmen, in natural soft leather, which ages beautifully with time and wear. All the styles are named after villages and towns of the Mediterranean island, with the occasional Greek godly exception, after all, Cyprus is the island of love – the birthplace of goddess Aphrodite.

As Sydney experiences heavy rain and wind, one imagines sun-baking and swimming in cool crystal blue water on the other side of the world. With summer in the northern hemisphere, major designers have recently released their Resort collections for 2014. And haven't there been some amazing stunners (it has been very challenging to decide my favourites)! So during the paradise-like climate weather I experience at the present, these collections have forced me to dream and escape to a sunshine-filled world, whether it be on the beautiful streets of Paris and Venice visiting art galleries and fashion shows, or relaxing on the beaches of tropical Hawaii, the European Mediterranean coast of Barcelona, the Cinque Terre, Taormina, or Cannes...
So wherever you may be reading this, let these designs take you away to another world.
The Lipstick Girl gives full marks to No. 21 for their RESORT 2014 COLLECTION being particularly fabulous and chic. The Italian Milan-based brand has achieved girly, trendy and smart pieces + ensembles that would do more than satisfy my wardrobe (perfect for any sunny vacation), radiating with well-tailored cuts + materials, summer prints, cute dresses, thin leather coats, + unique bag accessories + sandals.
Check out the rest of this collection here (source of the above images) + here.
Other intriguing collections include Maison Martin Margiela (with clean, minimalist lines + divine coats), Dion Lee, Balenciaga, Alexander Wang (consisting of his graphic ingenious twists with leather), Valentino, Moschino, Chloé, Karen Walker (spot on with her collection expanding to fun yet mature and sophisticated clothing featuring her characteristic sunglasses + quirky fabrics), Helmut Lang, Marc by Marc Jacobs, Lanvin, and Kenzo (full of breath-taking sculpting of different materials with funky colours, wavy lines, bandeau tops + oversized bomber jackets pleasing to the eye).
Who are your faves for Resort 2014? xx
