Caroline Charles Channels The 50s And All Things Floral

Florals were everywhere  in New York and made a big appearance at the Caroline Charles show this morning. If you're a fan of larger than life floral prints, you'll be happy because they appeared in droves. Orange, red and yellow large flowers were printed all over a white single breasted jacket teamed with a black pencil skirt and the same print also came on 50s style knee length dresses that would make Laura Ashley proud. If like me you're not one for bold prints, Charles offered smaller ditsy prints too in varying shades of blue on dresses styled with yellow skinny belts.

The collection was full of colour. Sequin dresses appeared in bright pink hues and straw hats were larger than life in a bold red. Even on monochrome looks like a black and white polka dot blouse teamed with a black pencil skirt, a bright yellow belt was added just to give it that summer edge.

It's safe to say that the collection is definitely not for everyone but I'm sure the designer's leigon fans will be sharpening the pencils to write their wish lists.

Kylie Looks Sensational For Mario Testino And The Fashion Targets Breast Cancer Campaign

Baring all for a shoot with iconic photographer Mario Testino, it is fair to say that Kylie Minogue's participation in this year's Fashion Targets Breast Cancer is something she holds close to her heart, with the issue being so close to home. Posing alongside fellow beauties Sienna Miller and Claudia Schiffer, the trio aim to raise over £1million for Breakthrough Breast Cancer. "It means so much to me to be part of this years' Fashion Targets Breast Cancer," the Australian singer told Vogue, "I wholeheartedly support their efforts to raise funds for vital work undertaken by Breakthrough Breast Cancer".

Only five years after being diagnosed with the disease, Miss Minogue is looking healthy, happy and as beautiful as ever for the cause, which whilst began as a small t-shirt campaign launched by Ralph Lauren back in 1994, now has the likes of M&S, River Island, Topshop, Warehouse, Laura Ashley, Coast, My-Wardrobe.com, Whistles, Superdry and Melissa Odabash on board creating special pieces to raise money for groundbreaking research, campaigning and education work. It's a hard call to pick favourites, but we'll be picking up the Olivia Rubin LBD from My-Wardrobe.com, and the Love to Love vest from Topshop. With money from the pieces going to such a good cause, we can look fabulous and feel good about it, too.

My Muse: Remembering Kelly Kapowski

Anyone who saw Zack Morris' return to TV on a June episode of 'Late Night with Jimmy Fallon' likely felt more than a hint of nostalgia for a certain class at Bayside High. In The Fash Pack's first instalment of a month-long series on first fashion influences, writer Ceda Xiong of This Is What Adults Wear shares why Zack's girlfriend, Kelly Kapowski, was the Kate Moss of the Aaron Spelling TV dynasty.

Here, Xiong explores the high points of Laura Ashley shorts and acid-wash denim, and tells why, as an immigrant to America, she took an instant liking to the girl who could land the leader of Zack Attack.

I grew up in China and was ignorantly fashion-free until my move to the US around the age of 8. After two solid years of soaking in American television, even I could discern that the ultimate cool girl was Kelly Kapowski from 'Saved by the Bell'.

Even though Jesse Spano was probably closer to my bookworm soul than the picture-perfect head of cheerleading, I disliked Jesse's menswear shirts and the way she was easily flustered by Slater. Lisa Turtle was definitely too fashion-forward for my pre-teen taste. The only approachable model seemed to be Kelly, and if my dream boyfriend was going to be Zack Morris, then it made perfect sense that dressing like Kelly was going to get results.
