Effortlessly cool - Don’t you just love her style…..

If we were to chose a celebrity that epitomises the style of ella georgia then the choice is simple, it’s just got to be Sienna Miller.

Sienna Miller the style queen of ella georgia

Sienna Miller is one of the hottest style trendsetters to hit the fashion scene in a long time. She always looks fabulous in whatever bohemian inspired outfit she manages to pull together (with or without Jude Law on her arm).

Sienna has a knack of taking traditional pieces and wearing them in unconventional ways, take inspiration from Sienna and change things up to give your outfit a fresh look, whether it be just a simple change, such as tieing a scarf round the hips of your jeans instead of wearing a belt.

The basics of Sienna’s fabulous look are simple and even the smallest aspects of it could easily be added to your own style repertoire.

Just like fellow boho-princess Kate Moss, Sienna can pull off the most rag muffin-esque ensemble as if it were couture. She was a trailblazer in popularising dresses over jeans, tights under dresses, layered jewellery, and a bundle of unique boots (Uggs, Mukluks, moccasins, and cowboy boots).

“Clothes don’t have to be expensive. But always look out for quality. Invest in one really good basic rather than wasting money on five shabby tops.” — Sienna Miller, in Italian magazine ‘Donna’.
Never try too hard. Start with a sun dress, add jeans or tights underneath, and toss a skinny jacket over. To pull the outfit together, a strand of bold beads, a wide rustic belt, and perfectly worn-in boots or stylish flip flops to complete the look.

When shopping for clothes, look for long flowing prairie skirts, denim minis, and ruffled tops. Pair those with vintage cowboy boots that can also be worn over a tight fitting pair of blue jeans.

Lastly, don’t forget to properly accessorise. Sienna loves over-sized sunglasses - the bigger the better. Add a few long beaded necklaces or a boho scarf and your ensemble will be complete. In no time at all, you’ll be sporting your very own Bohemian inspired look!

For big nights, Sienna chooses breezy, ethereal designer gowns mixed up with a tangle of necklaces, an armful of bangles, or eye-catching earrings - just one accessory, to keep the vibe carefree. Metallic heels and glitzy purses usually cap off the look.

Of course, by the time the rest of us catch up, Sienna will likely be on to her next fashion incarnation.

ella georgia welcomes new jewellery designer Cindy Ashbridge

We are delighted to introduce a new range of jewellery to ella georgia for the summer season.  An exquisite collection of rings, necklaces and earrings by Cornish designer Cindy Ashbridge.  Her work is most distinctive and each piece is crafted by hand making each and every one a piece of art in its own right.

Cindy tells us a little more about her work -

“Hand made at my garden studio in Cornwall, The Potting Shed, this distinctive collection of contemporary jewellery has evolved from things I like. Big, chunky rock crystals, are combined with silver and gold, which has been delicately pierced with simple, repetitive shapes.”

I use a variety of chunky quartz and semi precious gemstones, all carefully selected for their translucent qualities, to reveal the designs hidden beneath. The stones magnify the patterns on the silver, giving it a new dimension.

The patterns are influenced by nature, ethnic symbols, and primitive jewellery designs. Although the overall look is bold and eye-catching, the patterns bring a delicate and earthy quality to the pieces.”
