Marks & Spencer AW13

Okay, kind of freaking out. On 19 August, British retailer Marks & Spencer-- M&S-- issued a press release revealing their autumn collections campaign. And, well, its RIDICULOUSLY amazing.

It's kind of surprising for M&S, which I knew as a mostly-grocery store. You could always find a couple of gems in their clothing and housewares sections, but this? This is insane. The gorgeous campaign is shot by ANNIE FREAKIN' LEIBOVITZ and features a dozen of Britain's strongest and most inspirational women. The lineup:

        Nicola Adams Olympic Gold Winning Boxer
        Monica Ali Award-Winning Author
        Helen Allen Nurse of the Year 2011
        Darcey Bussell Retired Principal Ballerina at The Royal Ballet
        Grace Coddington Creative Director of US Vogue
        Karen Elson Supermodel and Singer
        Tracey Emin Artist and Professor of Drawing at the Royal Academy
        Ellie Goulding Multiplatinum global recording artist/Brit Award winning Singer/Songwriter
        Helen Mirren Multiple Award-Winning Actress
        Laura Mvula Breakthrough Singer/Songwriter
        Katie Piper Burns survivor, television presenter and charity campaigner.
        Jasmine Whitbread CEO of Save the Children International 

The campaign hits M&S's website on 13 September... P.S.... They offer free shipping to the USA and Canada- score! For more info on the collection, as well as full outfit details for each of the ladies, check out their press release!

Happy Diamond Jubilee!

Although I was born and raised in the United States, I've always fancied myself a Brit at heart. Yes, okay, I always wake up wishing I was in London, but today especially! For any Londoners or Anglophiles out there-- what are your plans for the Jubilee? Trying as hard as I am to force my wallet away from Liberty of London's Jubilee inspired collection? I literally want every. single. thing.

UPDATE: After spotting it on one of my favorite blogs, A Diary of Lovely, I stopped breathing, died, and managed to whip out my credit card in time to snag this amazing, adorable Cath Kidston skirt in honor of the Queen's big day. Thank you so much to Helena of A Diary of Lovely for posting about this little beauty!!
