Flapper girl for a day: RMV does the movies

Our very own Marie recently took part as an extra in the filming of an independent project run by the production company Six O's Studio, where she spent the day masquerading as a flirty flapper! Located in a 1920s cafe beautifully named 'The Cafe Wisteria', the scene is set for hero Peter Pendragon to meet the love of his life, who also happens to be his nemesis...

Article from Moseley B13 Magazine

An array of fringing and feathers, glimmering sequins, twenties props and luxurious beading decorated the glorious scene. It was a lavish trip back in time to the opulent elegance of the jazz age, with every actor head-to-toe in Gatsby style glamour and the location adorned with all of the flapper era extravagance you could ever dream of. Our flapper dress and diamante clutch bag totally complimented the dazzling decadence of the scene.

You can find further information about Six O's Studio over on their Twitter. Check out photos from the day below...

This Wilbur and Gussie Edith Clutch adds that extra shimmer to our fringe flapper dresses

Clueless - Top 5 Style Essentials

1. The striped sweater

Oh yes. This is what we're talking about, total Spice Girl sass. All those nostalgic feels! Taking classic 60s design and jazzing it up, 90s style.

2. The belly top

Yup. We loved these. What better way to show off your mid-riff than a Gwen Stefani style bralet top paired with a stretch choker (and you can totally grab yourself one on our website!)

3.The beret

The bad-hair-day saviour! Parisian cool teamed with plaid is just what we want from the 90s...we can remember having a few of these in all the colours...

4. The fluffy pen
Yes, we know it's stationery, but we think the fluffy pen is uber 90s! It totally captures the era of drink can pencil cases, glitter tubes and gel pens. We can accessorise at WH Smith can't we?!

5. The knee high socks
Another example of the naughty nineties stealing from the swinging sixties! We're a big fan of the dolly look, so go on Cher...you rock it!

Don't let those dark clouds get you down...style it out!

You probably mourned the loss of a whole range of umbrellas lately, even that pretty polka dot one you were convinced would totally stand up to those gale force winds. We're sad about this too. Don't worry though, you might not know it yet, but this grey weather is a stormy style opportunity!

Embrace those subtle greys and dark hues, those moody blues and mystic purples with our new Dark Clouds trend. From soft grey clutch bags to midnight black brooches, we've got it all! Keep your hands warm in our elegant wool gloves with faux leather button detail, team up with a weather-friendly scarf and embrace those April showers!
