    Now fashionistas have a place to stay in Edinburgh! Hotel Missoni has finally opened on the Royal Mile and there are more of them to come all over the world. At 74, Rosita Missoni, the doyenne of the Italian knitwear dynasty, has set out to start a chain of boutique hotels. Each hotel is the expression of her creative and artistic vision and sets out to bring out the warmth and color of an Italian family home but with a twist. In signature Missoni style, you're bound to find plenty of bright saturated colors, stripes, and of course, tons of Missoni zig zags. The hotel promises "the warmth and passion of an Italian home," and no Italian home would be complete without a great restaurant serving modern Italian fare. At the Edinburgh location the waiters even wear Missoni kilts while they provide stellar service at Cucina Missoni. Now if only the closet came stocked with Missoni's newest collection... that would make it pure heaven! Not planning on being in Edinburgh anytime soon? You can check out their hotels opening soon in Kuwait, Cape Town and Oman! Check out some of the gorgeous rooms in the slideshow.

    You're always in the market for new clothes, but in this summer heat, the mall is almost as much of a madhouse as it is around the holidays. The usual alternative would be online shopping from your favorite e-boutiques, but you're sick of guesstimating sizes only to find the goods either ill-fitting or damaged (*gasp*) upon arrival... and forget trying to get good customer service through an e-mail window! Enter Lands' End UK, an iconic go-to brand in men's and women's clothing, known for their long-lasting quality garments, mail-order convenience, and personable customer service for all your pesky returns and exchanges (you'll actually talk to a person and not a machine for a change!). The US-based brand, boasting everything from coats and cardigans to footwear and intimate apparel, has become a summer sale staple in the UK with their no-fuss women's swimwear collection that emphasizes the perfect balance between flattering cut and comfort. Low-maintenance guys dig Lands' End too, since they can stock up on their collection of classic polos, tees, and button-downs without ever stepping foot in a shopping center. The site may cost you a shopping buddy, but at least you won't have to pick out your dude's summer shirts for him! Check out the Lands' End UK webpage to browse their wide variety of clothing and swimwear and start ordering away!

    U.K. Stylediarist Does Pop Style Like Only a Brit Can!

    Admit it. We all have a little fashion envy for the people of the United Kingdom. I mean, it€™s the country that brought us the Spice Girls and the Beatles. It€™s home to Topshop, Burberry and Net-a-Porter.com, and was the inspiration for nearly the entire decade of 80s fashion. And, let€™s not forget it€™s the birthplace and home of Kate Moss. I mean, the nation practically breathes fashion. Which is why I am so obsessed with HeartandSleeve€™s Stylediary. Her cool, hipster look and killer fashion pieces almost embody what I love about style across the pond, with plenty of pop color to keep things exciting.
