Off-Screen Style with Sarah Parish

[vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/1″][text_output]

This week’s style guide was so much fun and all came about when a friend of a friend – who recently lost weight on the Rick Hay Anti-Ageing Food and Fitness Plan – needed a new wardrobe.

It turned out that the friend was actress Sarah Parish, who has just finished filming an eight-part series, The Collection, for Amazon Prime. This month also sees Sarah start filming the third and final series of Broadchurch as well as series six of Trollied.

Styling Sarah Parish was a dream job – confident, beautiful and enthusiastic, she really knew what flattered her body shape.  Sarah needed a few easy, casual and effortlessly stylish outfits – something we know a thing or two about at Quattro Rish! We love simplicity; classic yet modern clothes, which are amazing quality but at the same time super easy to wear.  We also like to add fun, on-trend pieces into our collections that add a dose of seasonal style to our customer’s wardrobes!

On the go 24/7 as a mum, actress and spokesperson for The Murray Parish Trust – a charity which she founded with her husband after they lost their first daughter Ella-Jayne to congenital heart failure – Sarah regularly attends social events both in her capacity as ambassador for The Murray Parish Trust and as an actress, which is why a capsule wardrobe was all-important.

Silk blouses are just a dream to wear.  They keep you cool in the summer and cosy in the winter.  Sarah loved our MiH Zodiac blouse for its cut, feel and colour.[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/2″][text_output]Jeans are such an important part of a wardrobe.  We wear them so much from day through to evening that having a handful of premium go-to denim is well worth the investment.  Sarah has always struggled to find a good pair of jeans which look and feel amazing, that was until she tried on our Current Elliott High Waist Stilettos with released hem…[/text_output][image src=”3732″ alt=”” href=”” title=”” info_content=”” lightbox_caption=”” id=”” class=”” style=””][text_output]Current Elliott High-waist Stilleto with released hem, £249 / MiH Jeans Silk Zodiac Blouse, £249 / IvyLee Copenhagen Pam Boots in suede, £190[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/2″][image src=”3730″ alt=”” href=”” title=”” info_content=”” lightbox_caption=”” id=”” class=”” style=””][text_output]Effortlessly cool and super elegant they look great with flats, heels or trainers.

Sarah feels comfortable in heels and wears them so naturally and at ease.  She loved our Sol Sana tassel chestnut heels, which are such fun adding boho vibes to any outfit.[/text_output][image src=”3729″ alt=”” href=”” title=”” info_content=”” lightbox_caption=”” id=”” class=”” style=””][/vc_column][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/2″][text_output]Slouchy tops and tees are the everyday essentials that you mix and match and grab in the morning without much thought.  The secret of a good tee is fabric and cut.  We love American Vintage – super soft and amazing quality – they are a pleasure to wear and wash so well.  Sarah was excited and relieved when she discovered the Jacksonville tee which is a-line and incredibly flattering on bigger chested ladies.

The poncho was a fun purchase for Sarah, perfect for those long, lazy summer evenings, or to cover up when travelling.  This is a piece that can be thrown over anything and will always look effortlessly stylish.[/text_output][image src=”3727″ alt=”” href=”” title=”” info_content=”” lightbox_caption=”” id=”” class=”” style=””][text_output]Becksondergaard Cotton Poncho, £89 / Current Elliott High-waist Stilleto with released hem, £249 / American Vintage Jacksonville Tee in white and black, £45 / Sol Sana Tassel Mavin Heel in chestnut suede, £140 / Becksondergaard Wool Poncho, £125 / IvyLee Copenhagen Pam Boots in suede, £190[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/2″][text_output]We were nearly finished with trying on denim when Sarah spotted a cult pair of MiH Phoebe Jeans.  Sarah L O V E D them.

The Jean Scene

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]Whether you live in boyfriends or a pair of skinny jeans, we all have our favourite pair of jeans that we pull on when we have three minutes to run out the door, that we trust wholeheartedly for their form-flattering shape, comfort and the casual cool we exude wearing them.  This weekend’s Style Edit introduces spring’s new denim trends featuring our beautiful summer intern Vicky, and with no shortage of options in spring denim it could be time to treat yourself to another dose of denim…

All denim styles featured in this post have been styled with an American Vintage grey Jacksonville round neck tee, £49.[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]

If you add just one piece of denim to your wardrobe for spring, make it a pair of cropped jeans.  Cut above the ankle with a gentle kick flare, this casual jean looks great with tailored pieces like blazers and button-down shirts that balance out the look.  For shoes, pair them with sneakers, boots and when the weather get’s warmer, sandals.

The skinny jean remains a firm favourite with fashionistas with the skinny jean now a classic staple.  This season is all about the high waisted skinny and we are loving Dr Denim’s version in Solid Grey.  These jeans truly are super soft, fit like a second skin and are a great price.  With cute zip details at the ankle, style sneakers or ankle boots.

Combat pants are making a big comeback, a fabulous alternative to the blue hues of denim, these Twist and Tango Lexie trousers in a gorgeous khaki colour are huge this season and are so easy to style.  They have a slight stretch which makes for a universally flattering look, aided in part by the side pockets which gives an interesting twist.  For shoes, these trousers look fab with heels.

While traditional boyfriend jeans still have a place we’re feeling the more Euro flair of these slightly fitted, ankle-peg version from MiH.  The Tanny are a cute alternative to the boyfriend, are super soft and look very flattering on curves or boyish figures.  You can go a size down for the more skinny fit, or a size up for more of a boyfriend – making these jeans easy to wear for every occasion.  For shoes team with heels, sneakers or boots – looks fab styled with tailored pieces.

The Marrakesh flare from MiH are so much fun to wear and will mix up your denim status quo with a twist of 70s boho chic.  They are uber flattering with a fitted waist and big flared bottoms, creating an elegant silhouette.  They are quite long so we suggest wearing with heels for  maximum impact.

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]Spring / Summer 2016 in Quattro Rish is shaping up to be be a strong season, with an emphasis on colour (brights win), a focus on outstanding fabrics (the softest cashmere and featherlight silks) and emerging new and super flattering denim shapes. Quattro Rish have Spring/ Summer covered, balanced with the fact that style also equals comfort and quality is paramount there is a piece in their collection (or two or three..) for everyone.

I had the pleasure of compiling my season must haves from Quattro Rish. There are so many looks to choose from I was spoilt for choice. My personal brief is always comfort, wearability, a flash of colour with a fashion twist. I need clothes to work hard for me, they need to pay they way in wearability and also need to work with my current wardrobe.

Here are my Spring Key Looks…

[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][image src=”3600″][text_output]

This Jumper1234 sweater is the ultimate in luxurious fabric, feels light as a feather and looks eye catching with it’s neon stripes. A casual take on this years Pink trend, this sweater would work beautifully over denim shorts and white pumps throughout the summer months, a capsule wardrobe must have. The MiH jeans are this year’s new shape ‘The Tomboy’, slightly high rise but not as high and unflattering as Mom jeans, they are super stretchy and the most beautiful colour. These will be your Summer ‘go to’ jeans, light but flattering, the perfect length and shape. Wear with trainers or flat sandals by day, in the evening dress up with heels and a silk shirt.

This Twist & Tango jumpsuit maxes out on the 70s trend, the perfect, comfortable piece to wear to a wedding, summer party or for drinks at the beach. In the spring pop a black, tux style jacket over the top, add a pair of gold heels for a beautiful elegant look, or add a pair of tan flat sandals in the summer for cool, laid back, chic look. I layered some beautiful gold necklaces from Quattro Rish to add a boho vibe, flattering and comfortable the must have jumpsuit for the summer.

Spring 2016 fashion done 4 ways

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]Each year we get majorly excited at Quattro Rish when the Spring collections start arriving, the thought of fresh designs and colours after a season of heavy knits and rain is hugely appealing.   With a team of four working together at QR it is really interesting to see how differently we buy and style, each of us choosing very different pieces from the collections.

Today’s post is about four women, each of whom have very different life styles.  We thought it would be fun to share with you in this post our differing styles through the Spring 2016 collections…[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3577″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]Ivy | Quattro Rish brain behind the business & buyer

Ivy and her husband Roberto founded Quattro Rish nearly 9 years ago.  With twins aged 5 Ivy is forever on the run, either merchandising, serving, styling customers, paying bills or the school run! She loves big jumpers, funky pants, trainers and has a bit of an addiction to the white shirt (MiH a favourite).  Ivy’s style can be described as masculine with a feminine twist – imagine a casual wardrobe with silk shirts, jumpsuits with the occasional pair of feminine shoes.

[/text_output][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]” I love this outfit as I know I will be wearing all these things to death.  The Current Elliott industrial pants are just so comfortable and I love the kick bottoms with the higher waist.  I feel effortlessly cool in them and can wear them either with trainers and a jumper / tee, but I can also dress them up with my favourite MiH white Ile shirt, pointy pumps and clutch.

The Custommade jumper feels great on and the colour is perfect for spring.  I will style with my blue / white ripped jeans, or over a maxi silk dress.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3576″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3578″][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][text_output]”The Rose Rankin trainers are an amazing find, I am wearing these everyday at the moment!  They tick all the boxes for me – comfortable, different with a pop of colour.

“The cardigan is pure luxe, I love the combo of grey and cream, it never dates and always looks chic. I can wear it now under my coat and in the spring as a coat.  The trainers are just a bit of fun as I never wear prints so I wanted to jazz up some of my simpler outfits.  I would love to wear them in the evening with a silk shirt or casual dress.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3583″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3579”][text_output]

They would look great with a dress or skirt as they make your legs look longer with the open front.

The Coster Copenhagen Jumper is a useful black top but with a difference – holes – and is so easy to wear!  I am obsessed with the silk zodiac blouse by MiH, it is a classic and my spring investment piece.  I also love the Pernille Coyrdon jewellery – simple, cool and stylish, this necklace looks great with so many things.”[/text_output][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3589″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][image src=”3590″][text_output]All items are available from our Spring 16 collections in store and to mail order.

A Very British Blogger…

[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/1″][text_output]It has been a really busy couple of weeks at Quattro Rish, with the festive period our favourite time of year, we have been styling outfits and helping choose those special Christmas gifts.  So for this week’s style post we have left behind the festive, party vibe to share with you the very British street style of homegrown blogger, Emma Bates.

Emma popped into her favourite boutique shop (yep, that’s Quattro Rish) last week for some winter wardrobe pieces and shared her experience and purchases with her 62.1k Instagram followers.

It’s the type of shop you walk into and would be almost unable to walk out of without emotionally attaching yourself to all manner of items, that you will also convince yourself are definitely a necessity in your wardrobe. You will also not receive better or more attentive service anywhere else and I can guarantee you’ll come out wishing you were as fashionable as Ivy (one of the owners).”

How to Style your Winter Coat

Winter coats are the first thing we think about once the weather turns colder, and as the sartorial backbone of our seasonal wardrobe, it’s absolutely essential that we find and invest in the perfect one. This season at Quattro Rish we are cosying up in everything from statement prints (loving Baum und Pferdgarten’s Danika wool coat) – to maxi coats (SET, Custommade and MiH have created coats that you’ll be cherishing for years).

Length-wise, anything goes. We’re loving maxi coats, but a cool cropped style (Unreal Fur) will look equally chic. With winter coats looking seriously good this season, we also have an amazing collection of super cool accessories and bags to finish off your winter look.   We are beyond excited with Liebeskind Berlin’s AW15 collection of timeless designs and softest, natural leather – a combination which makes this label one of our best sellers.

 

With the temperature set to drop in the coming weeks, we instinctively develop a natural urge to wrap ourselves up in a stylish maxi coat.  This coat is easy to style; throw over jeans and ankle boots or sporty shoes and tights – add a luxury Liebeskind bag to finish off your look: –

Denim Styles to wear Now and Forever

It’s only when the leaves start to turn their beautiful shades of orange, green and yellow that we can be sure it’s time to ditch the cut-offs and embrace this autumn’s hottest denim styles – from kick flares and a more subtle boot cuts to ankle-skimming, wide-leg pants that aren’t culottes, these are the freshest styles to wear right now.

Once you find that perfect, flattering pair of jeans we promise you will live in them and wear them season after season.  At Quattro Rish we are passionate about our denim and have an amazing collection of denim labels to flatter every shape and size, with prices starting from £45.

 

Favourite styles of denim this season: –

The Linda jean from MiH are a super high rise with tapered leg.  This denim shape looks fabulous on girls with typically curvy figures; smaller waists and gorgeously wider hips.  The Linda also looks amazing on girls who have a boyish figure; straight up and down.

The Rolled Skinny jean from Current Elliott are our best seller this season, flattering every body shape and look amazing with ankle boots, a simple shirt and chunky knitwear.

The London jean from MiH are a subtle, stylish alternative to the flare.  This bootcut style is tailored to sit just at the waist, smoothing into a kick flare at the ankle and flatters curvy, pear and boyish shapes by elongating the leg.  An everyday jean, style with sports shoes or heels.

One of our favourite denim brands for daytime denim is Swedish brand, Dr Denim.  This season we are loving the coated black skinnies and flares which offer a very reasonable £45-£55 price bracket.  The skinnies suit most shapes, whilst flares look amazing on women with long legs, pear or boyish shapes.

Shop the trends for A/W15 at Quattro Rish

There’s a huge trend for big, fluffy teddy-bear coats and faux-furs, this season.  With real fur fast becoming a thing of the past, Unreal Fur have become industry leaders in creating stunning faux fur pieces of the highest quality without the cruelty towards animals – and we are loving the colour and textures that have arrived at Quattro Rish for our first season with Unreal Fur.

The Wanderlust coat is going to be our staple outer-garment over the winter months; warm, cheerful, supremely comfortable and as fashionable worn with jeans and a pair of battered Converse as they are slung over the top of an evening dress.  Add the ivory Thread Through scarf for a subtle statement piece that works beautifully with flares and a chunky knit this autumn.

This season embraces both the 70s and 80s decades with clothing that can be as bold or subtle as you like.  For that bleached-out 70s vibe, style MiH’s London jeans, that have a subtle flare with some faux fur and platform shoes or pointy boots.

MiH London jeans (subtle flare), £185

IvyLee Copenhagen leopard pointed print boots, £160

 

To work the 80s trend team a leather pencil skirt with a chunky cropped jumper, add sheer tights with socks and team with sporty or pointy shoes.  Finish off the look with a big-shouldered coat – think Melanie-Griffith-Working-Girl.  Alternatively jump into a pair of wide-leg trousers with platforms.

It’s always handy to have a statement white blouse, but never more so than this season because poking your collar over your jumper is a thing again.  Our favourite white shirts this season at QR are the Poet and Louis from British designer MiH, which can be styled with a statement necklace or under a jumper for a dose of preppy daytime chic.

The 3 white shirts you need in your wardrobe

More versatile than anything else in our wardrobes, the white shirt looks chic during the day with accessories kept to a minimum, simply add sunglasses.  During the evening add a pop of lip colour and a statement necklace with heels.  The beautiful thing about MiH shirts is that once washed you just chuck back on again – no ironing !

Spring Denim Styles

It’s no secret that the 70s trend is influencing almost every SS15 collection out there, from flares and pale washed denim to pastel lace-up ankle boots, this spring is going to be one big 70s time warp !

As with each season we buy with our customer in mind, we source a collection of denim that flatters each individual body shape but that screams cool and wearable with a nod to the current season’s trends.

New to Quattro Rish this season is the Tomboy jean from MiH, if you live in your Phoebe jeans then you will L O V E the Tomboy – with a hint at the loose ease of a boyfriend but with a slimmer fit, the Tomboy is the perfect go-to casual jean this season.  We welcome the return of denim classics such as the Stiletto in a pale wash with orange stitching; or the Paris from MiH in both blue and white.  Why not channel 2015’s answer to the loose leg boyfriend and try the flare !  We are very excited about the imminent arrival of the Skinny Marrakesh jean from MiH, this jean fits like a skinny at the top before flaring into a statement kick – these jeans will be as adorable with flat shoes as they are with heels.

Our best selling style so far this season is the Straight cut-off jean in white from Current Elliott.  Wear them loose for a more casual style or go down a size for a more fitted look.

The 70s vibe continues with our amazing footwear collection now available in store from Seven Boot Lane //
