heres what she had to say:
Lucie Cave, Executive Editor of Heat magazine writes…
When I found out I was co-hosting the ITV2 ‘Backstage at the National Television Awards’ I was, quite frankly, in a right tizz about what to wear (satin gowns and cocktail dresses aren’t my thing and make me look like a fancy toilet roll holder). I’m a huge fan of Motel anyway, the dresses always look effortlessly cool without looking like you’re trying, so the Motel Betsy Egyptian print dress was perfect for this occasion. I teamed it with some lipstick print opaque tights, black ankle boots and a vintage gold chain necklace and felt glam yet comfortable – which was important as I didn’t need to be worrying about whether my dress was too tight aswell as remember my lines. James Corden gave me compliments aplenty – which is always nice, and I’ve worn it since to an engagement party and the pub – so its very versatile!
Host of MTV’s show MTV Home Palina, was spotted wearing a cute motel mini skirt, sadly we have now sold out but get the look with the sphinx jacket!

Here at the Motel office, we were recently visited by Jenny who is designer and owner of Nylon Sky and when she showed us her new collection of necklaces ‘Rough: Luxe’ we instantly fell in love!
We decided that we would get some of these wonderful treats for our flagship store in Bristol and we were all really excited when Jenny dropped them off yesterday!
We got the necklaces in four different designs, each coming in two colourways. Rough: Luxe is a geometric / futuristic fusion of laser cut acrylic and wood. We think they are of similar style to designer Holly Fulton! Some necklaces come on a black or silver chain and some are bound by leather and attached to a black rope style cord and range from £15 – £24 !
Either way, we are loving all of Jenny’s creations and we think you will too! Take a peak and and watch this space!!
Vintage lovers delight! Motel’s Bristol store is having a vintage-tastic week of wonders. Check out some of these beauties to get your mind racing.
