Mark Hayes – GM.TV – Tribal Bag – M&S
May 19, 2009 accessories, marks and spencer
High street wonder-shop M&S announced this morning that they were a staggering 40% behind last years profits; a percentage that baffles me as I believed I’d single-handily funded them for the last year thanks to my new obsession with M&S clothes and accessories!!!
Firmly on my fashion radar, I’m so impressed with the high standard of designs and the quality of their garments - most especially M&S bags and shoes…
GM.TV’s Mark Hayes picked their Limited Collection Portobello Shoulder Bag as a must-have for those wanting to channel this seasons tribal trend and its easy to see why! This tribal bag is fabulous – colourful and fun, it’s just the sort of accessory needed to brighten up your day!
For those who fancy trying tribal-ware but are a little reticent; this tribal bag would do nicely as its strong shapes and bright colour are perfectly on-trend and would compliment the simplest of outfits without looking overkill.
I’d team it with a simple T, denim shorts and gladiator sandals…and would finish off the look with a statement necklace. Pukka.

M&S – Limited Collection – Snake Print Dress – Tribal Trend
Apr 14, 2009 fashion, marks and spencer
M&S continue to be on-the-up, creating another season of beautifully designed clothes and accessories that surpass the last seasons wonderful range; I love, in particular, the M&S Limited Collection which is full of forward thinking designs heavily influenced by catwalk trends.
A particularly wonderful on-trend item is this tribal inspired, snake print Pleated Front Tunic, which could also serve as a short shift dress. I adore the way M&S have mixed a formal silky material with casual over-sized pockets, making this dress suitable for both smart wear and dressed down days!
Team with a pair of platform gladiators – either bare legged for a night out or over leggings for day-wear chic. If you’re looking to channel the tribal trend – add some carefully selected jewellery – a pair of ethnic-esque statement earrings would do nicely.
