Dame Zandra Rhodes Leads the Charge for a Stylish Spring Clean

The much-loved British fashion icon has created an exclusive print for Recycle Your Electricals. The campaign aims to get UK households to stop throwing away or hoarding their small old electricals and start doing something useful with them, like donating or recycling them.

recycling, electrics, electrical, phones, toaster, Zandra Rhodes,

The print appears on an ethically sourced, organic cotton tote bag featuring Dame Zandra’s trademark ‘Painted Lady Head’ illustration, with bold and colourful electrical items placed around it. Fans will instantly recognise the work of one of fashion’s most respected names. Profits from the sales of the bag will go to a cause close to Zandra’s heart, Waste Aid, which helps fight poverty, pollution, and climate change by sharing waste management and recycling skills in the world’s poorest places.

The bags will help Recycle Your Electricals launch this year’s Little Spring Clean campaign, which encourages UK householders to de-clutter and sort their unused household electricals, which are creating the world’s fastest growing waste stream. The totes are a handy and stylish way to help people recycle, by popping their electricals into the bag rather than a bin, ready to be taken to the nearest recycling point.

In the UK alone we are holding onto 527million small old electricals, and 155,000 tonnes of waste electricals are thrown away in general household rubbish each year. However, if the thrown away or hoarded electricals were recycled, 2.8 million tonnes of CO2 emission could be saved, equivalent to taking 1.3 million cars off the road. Any item with a plug, cable or battery can be recycled, such as mobile phones, laptops, hairdryers, speakers or irons.

A passionate campaigner for sustainability, Dame Zandra led the way for a greener approach to fashion, and living, before many others. With impeccable fashion credentials and an eye for stunning design that oozes personality and demands attention, there was no better person to support the campaign.

Dame Zandra Rhodes said, “I knew right away that Recycle Your Electricals was a campaign I wanted to get behind. I’ve been a huge advocate of zero-waste fashion for many years and really helped to get it on the radar of the general public. Now, we must also raise awareness of the problem of old electricals. Not many people know that they can, and should, be recycled or donated. I hope that people buy my charity tote, pop their electricals into the bag ready to be recycled, and organise their own ‘Little Spring Clean’ to help do something about this problem.”

Scott Butler, Executive Director, Material Focus the not for profit behind the Recycle Your Electricals campaign said:  “It’s wonderful to have Dame Zandra Rhodes on board for this campaign. Not only is she a champion of sustainability, but she is a true fashion icon. The bag she has designed is both useful and stylish and I hope it encourages everyone to organise their own Little Spring Clean and start recycling their unwanted electricals.” 

The Dame Zandra Rhodes exclusive print tote bags are available in light brown or white and cost £12 from www.shoprecycleyourelectricals.org.uk all profits go to Waste Aid. Pop your unwanted electricals into the bag before finding your nearest recycling or donation point at  www.recycleyourelectricals.org.uk

5 of the Latest Women’s Footwear Looks from Valentino – The Best Styles for Winter 2021

If you are ready for 2020 to be over, like just about everybody else in the world, then why not start looking to 2021 with some hot new additions to your wardrobe? When it comes to footwear for the rest of the winter 2021 season, there are some really gorgeous styles out there for shoes, boots and sneakers, and you will definitely love the chic designs in the latest women’s footwear collection by Valentino.

Valentino is a fashion house with a lot of pedigree when it comes to looks that retain everything that is special about glamorous Italian style while also keeping with the times and providing looks with a modern, fashionable edge. Here, we explore five of the most interesting and beautiful footwear looks you can find from Valentino right now:

Over the Knee Black Rock Stud Boots

Over the knee boots are a winter staple, giving you a sexy and sophisticated look while also keeping you warm when you decide to dress in skirts or dresses during the colder months. If you want a pair of classic black over the knee boots that give you a true sense of high-end luxury every time you put them on, then you really can’t find anything better than these sleek black leather boots by Valentino, which have plenty of alluring fashion details like the iconic Valentino rock stud embellishments to give them a unique look.

Black V Logo High Top Sneakers with Fur Trim

When it comes to casual shoes for this season, these beautiful shearling sneakers with their warm trim at the ankle will give you a warm, cozy look without cutting down on style. With different textures and Valentino branding across the shoe to give a true ‘designer’ look, these are the perfect sneakers to upgrade your streetwear look with for the new season.

There are plenty of other gorgeous sneaker styles in the latest Valentino range for women, which you can find at SSENSE, so if you prefer a lower cut sneaker or a bolder color, you can find your new dream Valentino shoes by checking out the latest collection from this designer. This high-end site has all of the top fashion labels, so you will find plenty of beautiful fashion ideas on there for winter 2020.

Rock Stud Heeled Combat Boots

If combat style chunky boots are what you are looking for, then these heeled boots, which also feature Valentino’s rock stud furnishings, offer great comfort as well as the fierce look you want. Made in high quality Italian leather, these boots will last you through many more winter seasons to come, and the chunky heel gives a feminine look that is great with jeans. These boots are also a great way to add a more edgy, bold look to cute dresses, especially when worn with lace or fishnet hosiery and a leather jacket. 

Pink and Blue Cage Garavani Heels

If you want a sexy evening look to step out in this winter, then these beautiful stilettos with cage style straps are the perfect choice. The pink trim and straps against the blue body of the shoe make for an eye-catching contrast that looks incredible with black dresses, and the combination of the strappy design and the stud details makes these shoes as glamorous as you would expect from Valentino. 

This shoe design is available in other colors and textures, including a cashmere boucle design in off white, as well as of course classic black versions, so if you prefer neutral colors for your evening shoes, it is still well worth checking out this model. The cage style of stiletto heel is one that will never go out of fashion, and provides a little more interest to your evening shoe than the classic court shoe or pump style.

Tan Shearling Boots

If you love the warm feel and winter comfort of shearling boots that encase your feet and ankles in warmth and softness, but you want something a bit more shapely and sophisticated than Ugg style boots, then these beautifully made Valentino shearling heeled boots in tan are a fabulous investment. The classic heeled structure makes these boots elegant and luxurious, and the Valentino branding detail adds a classy touch. Wear these over leggings or thick tights with your favorite winter sweater dresses, or pair them with jeans for a soft yet sexy winter look.

These are just five of the many fantastic designs you can find if you browse the latest women’s footwear offerings from Valentino. Whatever type of shoe or boot you are interested in adding to your winter 2021 wardrobe, you are certain to find styles you will fall in love with if you take a look at their beautiful new collection.
