The Event
We were excited to go to the opening of Anil Arjandas London store.
Already popular and successful in Spain and a favourite of celebrities, the London opening of Anil Arjandas was highly anticipated and promised to be an unforgettable event- it did not disappoint.
Set in the heart of London's privileged Mayfair, serenely tucked away just behind Oxford street, lies the store on Davies st.

Anil Arjandas
Designer Anil Arjandas benefits from a wealth of cultural inspiration and international perspective due to his mixed Indian and Spanish heritage. As a result, each piece is has a unique reference to the beautiful kaleidoscope of South Asian and Mediterranean design.
The Collection
The collections really do have something for everyone, ranging from more classic emerald pieces for the more conservative and spikes for the contemporary. We had the pleasure of talking through the collections with Anils father ( who was dressed impeccably in a custom suit ) he proudly walked us though and explained what makes Anil Jewellery unique. Anil takes care to use black and brown diamonds, favouring them for their classy subtlety that alludes to confident old money luxury. We love this, as not only are these diamonds beautiful, they are a change from the usual Elizabeth Taylor white diamond. The masterpieces are set in Antique Silver and Rose Gold, again offering a contemporary alternative to the traditional yellow gold.
Our Summary
We loved the collection because it was wearable luxury for the confident woman, who needs pieces that can seamlessly go from dazzling in the day to noticeable at night. In summary the collection is the 21st Century answer to old money glamour. Be sure to check the store out - 20 Davies St, Mayfair, London. As it is just a stones throw from Claridges its the perfect modern day Breakfast At Tiffany's activity- London edition. ;)

I wanted to the classic look for this event, and so I chose the 1940's glamour makeup, reinvented for the 21st century with an ombre lip. I chose a figure hugging maroon dress from Asos. I completed the look with my favorite coat, in the style of the flattering Dior New Look and perfect for my retro glam direction.

The Hair And Makeup
To complete the ombre lip, I used Rimmel Colour 6 in the middle and Mac Rebel at the edges.Hair wise I wore one of Le Dutches' custom full wigs, for that over the top big hair luxury.
The hair is naturally straight but we gave it lose waves for an effortless modern look.

So a day before this event I was just browsing through Instagram and came accross Lilly Ghalichi's page (who I am proudly following). I read her post about the grand store opening for the very talented Anil Arjandas. I knew there and then, that this was not an event to be missed...
What do I wear?? How to do my hair??? And for God sake my makeup?
Questions questions and questions...
...However-
I decided to keep it simple and sexy, with a touch of class.
A black dress;
You can never go wrong with a back dress that shows a bit of cleavage. It is just perfect for a night out. Complimented with a statement necklace and high stilettos you are Good to Go. However I wanted to be more then simple and sexy so I decided to wear my red wig for that UUh Factor ...
Bring in the Funk!

I would also like to Thank Anil Arjandas for giving us the opportunity to be part of his store opening.
Not only has it has been a great experience to be surrounded by such a talented creative individual with excellent taste and a unique selection of art, but Anil Arjanda's is simply an excellent host.
