High Street Pick of the Week - The 2011 Style File

No self respecting Island of Mustique 1970s chick can be without her kaftan, think Princess Margaret, the groovy royal. I know, I should be all about the Jagger... Bianca but well lets say we give the royals a go after all it is their year.

Too often high street kaftans draw upon the boho chick look (think Kate & Sienna) but luckily East have captured the essence of the late 60s early 70s with a retro print kaftan retailing handily at near 1970s prices (well in comparison to the designer alternatives) for £29. It is a gorgeous print and will be in store soon. This is the stockist number to find out when 0208 877 6543

    I'd pair this with some oversize Gucci sunnies. Pure summer!

    Very pretty! Princess Margaret, who I like to think of as the rebel princess, would definitely wear this! xx

    Wow - I really want this! And such a rare stylish bargain from East. Will be putting my name down for one at our local branch. Thanks so much for finding it. Actually I have a vintage turquoise petalled turban hat which I had named "the Princess Margaret". I can just imagine her looking sensational in both, with long cigarette holder in hand, amidst her admirers whilst lounging on a Mustique beach...

    Margaret rocked it in her time, and I'd definitely give her the edge over Bianca. Liz Hurley did the kaftan well too.

    It reminded me of Pucci straight away and on that basis, I love it!
