Penny and Polaroids is the essential fashion blog for any girl who wants to keep up to date with the latest fashion and celeb trends.

Set up by Nuala Gorham in 2012, it has already gained great acclaim both in Ireland and the UK.

Nuala not only won Ireland’s Best Fashion Blog in 2013 but was also shortlisted as Best International Blog for Company Magazine’s Blog Awards 2014 in the UK.

SHEmazing! caught up with Nuala, who let us in on her own fashion must-haves:

What item do you think every girl should have in her closet? 
A great coat. I have so many coats – too many even – but I honestly think they are so important. A stylish coat can make even the simplest outfit look effortlessly chic.

What’s the most expensive item of clothing you’ve bought?
At the risk of sounding really spoiled I have to admit most of my really expensive, designer pieces have been gifts. I’d probably have to say my Senso boots were among the most expensive I’ve bought myself, partly because they were expensive and partly because they came from Australia and customs sent me an additional bill!

What’s your best bargain?
My camel coat, which I got for £5 in a vintage shop in Glasgow. I love vintage finds.

What would you say is your favourite accessory?
Definitely my Michael Kors rings. I’m quite the magpie when it comes to accessories. I also love sunglasses.

If you could only shop in one store for the rest of your life, which would it be?
That would be so difficult but I’d have to choose Zara. Their pieces are very classic and I love their bags and shoes.

Don’t forget to check out Penny and Polaroids and follow Nuala on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook.

Stéphane Rolland thinks Kim Kardashian will walk down the aisle in a ”romantic” wedding dress.

The French fashion designer also thinks that Givenchy’s Riccardo Tisci has created the gown.

He said, ”I think she is going to be for sure romantic…It depends on who will be the designer. They are friends with Riccardo Tisci…. so I would not be surprised if he is doing the dress.”

But fashion insiders are convinced Lanvin designer Alber Elbaz has created a bespoke gown for the bride, especially after Kim was dressed by Lanvin for the Met Ball earlier this month.

As for the groom, Stéphane would like to see Kanye in a classic suit for the couple’s nuptials.

He said, ”I would appreciate to see him very elegant, like a long grey or black jacket. Very French and English-inspired. And not with a bow, but with a tie.”

Kim and Kanye are front row regulars at Stéphane’s shows and the designer has styled the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star a number of times in the past.

The designer will be a guest at the top secret wedding this weekend.

Can you believe that this young woman grew up to be stylist Rachel Zoe? Us neither!

The photo of her as a younger woman was released as part of LinkedIn’s If I were 22 series, in which successful people talk about their career path.

Rachel goes into detail about how she came to run a high-flying stylist empire, saying it’s important to “learn what you’re good at.”

The stylist also added: “don’t look at the clock … know what to prioritize, rise above drama and stand out in an interview.”

Rachel’s first job in the fashion industry was a fashion assistant for YM magazine where she says she was always the first person to arrive in work, and the last to leave.

She also added that homework doesn’t end when you graduate school, so if needs be, perfect a project in your own time. Now that’s dedication!

Rachel is now a mum to two adorable children, Skyler (3) and Kaius (6 months) with her husband, Roger Berman.

Ralph Lauren is reportedly very upset that Kate Middleton did not attend her husband, Prince William’s charity dinner at Windsor Castle last Tuesday.

The designer found out that the Duchess would not be attending the event six weeks prior to the event and wanted to cancel his own attendance, but was advised against it.

A source said that Ralph was “furious when he found out less than six weeks ago that Kate would not be there.”

It would appear that he wasn’t hiding his disappointment either as when Prince William was introduced to the American designer and his wife, he said: “I’m sorry my wife’s not here, you probably would rather you saw my wife.”

Ralph Lauren’s rep has said that he “had only ever been enthusiastic about attending the event.”

In other exciting Kate Middleton news, it has been rumoured that her no-show at last Tuesday’s soirée could be down to morning sickness.

Ooh, could Kate be expecting again?

Editor of Vogue magazine, Anna Wintour, isn’t one to mince her words – and when it comes to the Met Gala, there’s no exception.

Anna, who has been in charge of hosting the event in New York City since 1995, has given her choice of the best dressed man at this year’s event.

According to the editor, Benedict Cumberbatch was the only man at the event who “nailed” the dress code perfectly.

The dress code for the Met Gala this year was white tie, and it was obvious to Anna that many of the men attending the gala simply did not understand the meaning of the dress code.

Those who clearly misunderstood the dress code included; Tom Brady, Jake Gyllenhaal and even fashion conscious, Kanye West did not get Anna’s seal of approval.

Anna called Jake’s look, “Brooklyn white tie,” whilst she said that Tom Brady, “obviously didn’t look at the invitation.”

Bradley Cooper reportedly got 99.55% of his outfit correct but lost out because, according to Anna: “his studs should have been onyx and not mother of pearl.”

Ouch! We wonder what she’d make of the lads outfits down in Copper’s on a Saturday night?

The biggest fashion night of the year has happened and we’re not really sure what to think!

There was a definite return to old Hollywood glamour, with lace, smooth curls and red lips a-plenty while those looking for a modern flair opted for dresses with cropped tops.

As usual there were fashion disasters, with some usually dependable actresses surprising us with bad decisions, but there were also a few stunning successes.

All in all, we’re a little underwhelmed – see what you think!

Top designer, Vera Wang, has made a surprising change to her brand and opted against a runway show for her 2015 spring bridal collection.

This will be the first time in 24 years that Wang has not had a runway show and instead decided on a video presentation of her collection.

The reasons for this, Wang explains, is to reach a wider audience: “The opportunity to create a visual and expressive experience of my clothes, as interpreted by my fashion vision, is a whole new way for me to communicate with not only brides, but women everywhere. In this instance, bridal becomes the artistic vehicle to advance my love of fashion in general. I hope you will enjoy this new experience.”

The collection is entitled “Chasing Alix” and features stunning dresses that no doubt brides everywhere will absolutely love!
