Celebrating the fabulous tuxedo

If you’re struggling for ideas on what to wear for all your Christmas engagements this year, why not help fashionistas celebrate the fabulous tuxedo, which is 150 years old this year. This season everyone is paying tribute, with classic looks returning from Yves Saint Laurent, and modern twists being spotted on the catwalks of Moschino Cheap and Chic and Mason by Michelle Mason. Perfect to wear to even the most formal occasions or casual after-work drinks, the tuxedo jacket is sure to make any woman feel sophisticated, sexy and will undoubtedly cause a stir.

If you want to work the androgynous look to its full potential, wear a classic tuxedo with sharply tailored trousers and timeless black stilettos. Keep hair simply swept up, ensure your eyes are dark and smoky, and finish the look with the beautiful Theia clutch from BoBelle London for an extra touch of elegance.

For the ultra stylish, the updated tuxedo is just the thing for Christmas parties this year. Take inspiration from Alexander McQueen’s tuxedo jumpsuit and keep the look softly feminine with BoBelle London’s Melissa clutch, or for a more structured look, partner your jumpsuit with the new Brackenbury satchel in light grey. For a more playful take on the tuxedo, try Moschino Cheap and Chic’s fabulous full-on jumpsuit. A simple small clutch is ideal to complete this look, and the Athena clutch fits the bill perfectly.

For a more subtle homage to the style, try the bowtied shirt from McQ, add some quirky brogues and BoBelle’s Brackenbury satchel in Rioja Red to complete an understated, but totally on-trend look.

Press, glorious press!

Things have started to get busy at BoBelle London and we are getting in the festive spirit! We have a gathering on November 17th (this Thursday) and if you are in the area, we would love you to attend! The whole street is getting involved and there will be all sorts of delights on special offer, music, champagne, mince pies and more - New Quebec Street is only 2 minutes away from Marble Arch tube - simply turn left out of the station, turn left down Old Quebec Street and walk to the end - New Quebec Street is opposite!

We have been working really hard recently and our efforts are certainly paying off; we have been seen in this week's Stylist magazine, The Telegraph, The Times, The Daily Mail and Heat - how exciting!
