Countdown to Christmas - Day 4 - Style a Day


Emma Watson – Actress/sustainable fashion advocate:


Following the release of the latest film Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them that is currently taking the Wizarding World by storm, we thought we’d cast our minds back to the original Queen B of the world of Harry Potter.



Emma Watson is not only a renowned actress in top films such as the Harry Potter saga but has also starred in releases like The Perks of Being a Wallflower and spends her spare time advocating for Human Rights – particularly Women’s. 






We at Madia & Matilda think that makes her a superhero in her own right, but particularly when it comes to her style. Emma has her own look, taking inspiration from the latest trends as well as her own passions. In 2010 she worked closely alongside People Tree, a sustainable brand like us, to create her own line and continued creating clothing for the company until late 2012.




Dress her look in our very own Dakota knitted tank top and Ellen Cigarette Leg Trousers or for a more adventurous night wear look, try our Bella Halter Neck Jumpsuit or Amber Lace Top and Evelin Mini Skirt.



Sincerely Madia & Matilda

Countdown to Christmas - Day 3 - Style A Day





Giovanna Fletcher – “Giovanna’s World” blogger/TV presenter:

Blogger at Giovanna’s World, TV Presenter, Mum and all-round superwoman! Today’s on-trend lady is Giovanna Fletcher. 








Her style perfectly captures her energy and confidence whilst maintaining a practical and elegant look for her day-to-day plans. She seamlessly transforms her day look for night wear.










Channel your own inner Giovanna in our Abbie silver smock dress for an evening occasion or replicate Gi’s daytime look in our Mercia Frill Sleeve Top and Camille High Waisted Capri Trousers, paired with our Emery Sleeveless Jacket. To really finish off the look, why not add a pair of Olivia vegan shoes from our curated brand Bourgeois Boheme now available in store and online.

Countdown to Christmas - Day 2 - Style A Day





Besma – “Curiously Conscious” blogger:


Curiously Conscious is a lifestyle blog from girl crush Besma who specialises in highlighting everything you need to know about living a healthier, more sustainable and ethical life. Her curiosity for living consciously gives her a unique sense of style and inspires today’s look.


Besma tends to favour simple clothing in plain colours or an in-your-face pattern. For a day time look that would reproduce this, why not try our Jain Playsuit the simplistic style has a small pattern in the fabric we think matches Besma’s style effortlessly. 







Failing that, our Martha Skirt with the Serina Sheer Short Sleeve Blouse could be another potential style steal.

Watch out for more with +Curiously Conscious and +Madia & Matilda as we shall be collaborating with her in the new year

Rachelle Darbouze – “With The Grey” blogger:



https://withthegrey.wordpress.com/




With The Grey https://withthegrey.wordpress.com/is a minimalist fashion blog from creative genius Rachelle Darbouze, who also features her work on Youtube and Etsy. Her modest style is of a slow fashion nature with handy tips on how to maintain a minimalist wardrobe, with simple and timeless styles, that are beautiful in its own right. We love how Rachelle manages to creating a balance of the high st, well known, with small independent brands. Her support for ethical fashion like ours is what makes her today’s style inspiration. 







Here's a few looks we thought would suit Rachelle's style, our Dakota Knitted Tank Top with Aisha tapered leg trousers and a trench coat and pumps for a smart but chic daytime look that the
 With The Grey blogger 





would be proud of, and as a fan of high necks, we think Rachelle would appreciate the simplicity of the Ivy Playsuit for a relaxed night time look that one can dress up or dress down just as easily. Either way, keep it simple, and you are sure to impress.
