Lara Stone and David Walliams tie the knot!

After a whirlwind romance, supermodel-of-the-moment, Lara Stone has finally married her funnyman beau, David Walliams. The couple met in mid-2009 and by January it was announced that the pair planned to wed, which understandly prompted lots of raised eyebrows. It was reported that ladiesman Walliams proposed with a beautiful vintage engagement ring after calling Lara's parents in Holland to ask for permission.

Witnessed by what was probably the weirdest guestlist ever (I never thought I'd see Dale Winton and Tom Ford at the same party); the couple were married in Claridge's hotel before moving on to Shoreditch House for the reception. Lara opted for a beautiful white lace Givenchy gown but changed into a shorter-than-short Ricardo Tisci for Givenchy gold minidress before heading over to the party in a gorgeous vintage Rolls Royce.

It must have been quite a party as guests included Walliams' co-star Matt Lucas, Elton John, Richard and Judy, Geri Halliwell, Jonathan Ross, Stephen Fry, Noel Gallagher, Natalie Imbruglia, James Corden, Fearne Cotton, Ronnie Corbett, Alan Carr, Jamie and Louise Redknapp, Tess Daly and Vernon Kay, Barbara Windsor, Dale Winton, Tom Ford, Denise van Outen and Sam Taylor-Wood and her fiancee, Kick-Ass star Aaron Johnson to name a few..

Alistair Guy's 'Shot From Above' at The Ivy

Sorry it's been a while, being a full-time fashion intern at Start keeps me pretty busy these days.

A couple of weeks ago I had the pleasure of attending a work event at The Loft at The Ivy. It was a private viewing of Alistair Guy's latest photography exhibition, 'Shot From Above', which features influential men in fashion. 'Shot From Above' follows seamlessly (forgive the pun) on from Alistair Guy's last exhibition, 'Behind The Seams', which focused on influential women in British fashion. The ten portraits, all shot from above, show the men in their respective work spaces. The likes of British Fashion Council chairman Harold Tillman, shoe designer Terry de Havilland, milliner Stephen Jones, designer William Tempest, jewellery designer Dominic Jones, Vogue's Robin Derrick, hairdresser James Brown and of course, boutique owner Philip Start, were all included.

William Tempest, womenswear designer

The event was a hit with several of the distinguished men in question showing up to see their portraits. Guests sipped on Gin Brambles and Moscow Mules, the latter being my drink of choice. Grazia's Melanie Rickey was set to have her hen party that same night and so in the spirit of 'the more the merrier', Brix Smith-Start invited all 30 hens along who luckily behaved themselves, although as The Ivy was their first planned stop I can't speak for the rest of their night!

The event was sponsored by Mr. Start. The prints will be on display for the next month at the Mr. Start tailoring store, 59 Rivington Street, EC2, and are also available to be purchased.

The Life of a Fashion Intern. (one week in)

I've just started interning at Start, Brix Smith-Start and Philip Start's boutique in Shoreditch. Right now I'm mostly doing press and online stuff and I'm loving it. Lots of lending clothes out to press and getting them back. Online orders, online content such as designer bios etc. I'm hoping to get some buying experience soon too!

Check out a couple of blogs I wrote for Jeanette's pop-up shop at Start (which I helped put together), and the launch party (which I got to attend!):

Elle Japan came to the office last week and took some pictures of me and two colleagues for a feature on Start that should be in their July issue. I was lucky enough to get to style myself in anything I wanted from the Spring/Summer collections! I chose to wear two of my absolute favourites; Alexander Wang and Vivienne Westwood. It was shot in the street outside Start, I can't wait to see how it turns out. Here's a sneak preview of what I was wearing:

Alexander Wang top and trousers, Vivienne Westwood Anglomania x Melissa shoes. Vivienne Westwood necklace and earrings (my own). Fossil watch (my own). Stella McCartney bra (my own).

I'll try to keep you updated on any exciting new experiences I get to do whilst interning.

More soon xx
