Beauty Buys...
Xmas parties= Glitter. Barry M= Love. These eyeliners are long lasting, gorgeously colorful and shimmery :D. And affordable. Grab them.

Spring/Summer 09- Trend Report!
Our information comes from Vogue.co.uk. To see all the trends in action and all the shows, GET ON THERE. We can't tell you enough.
7th October 2008-
The international collections came to an end last night after more than five weeks of shows in New York, London, Milan and Paris.
What WE wanted to know was what are we going to be wearing in spring ( once christmas is out the way, thats the next exciting thing....)
SO, we took what vogue thought were the key trends, and then a few more popular catwalk occourances- preperation purposes ;). ENJOY!
Heres some Key trends for Spring/Summer 09:
-Buy a hat (or a head scarf or a hair accessory of some description - the ponytail tubes at Louis Vuitton are a good option);
-Buy a really, really fabulous pair of heels (you need asking twice?);
-Buy at least one single-shouldered dress (one for evening and one for summer daytime flirting would be best);
-Buy something gold;
-Plan plenty of monochrome outfits;
-Put all your blues together, and all your greens, and practice wearing them layered up, all at once;
-If you're keen to invest in one of the bags of the season, go for a long strapped one slung across your body or clutch a teeny weeny one in your palm (as at Chanel and Louis Vuitton), or, for the real deal (and bank) breaker, check out the scrunchy, hand-held ones at Prada, Miu Miu and Louis Vuitton.
Now heres some we've thrown in, that we're excited about :).
-Bows
-Color Blocking
-Dots
-Metallic Leather
-Sequins
-Short Shorts
-Yellow.

Christmas Presents- Love? :)
So, you dont know what to ask for this year? Tiffanys is the answer, sometimes love is in the desginer jewellery...choose the silver favorites to have affordable and show-offable stunners. :D
Love Your Smell :)
Is it Keira Knightly, or the beautiful smell?? Known as being a perfume that is sensuous, sparkling and feminine, with notes of orange, jasmine, vanilla and musk- Its our current favourite.

Accessorize.
Yeh, its not the chanel quilted bag, but as they are in fashion generally, we thought this one was the cutest we'd seen without the double C's and triple figures!!
Fashion Heros.
Jimmy Choo- perhaps the most famous ever graduate of the lOndon college of fashion, and most certainly the creator of many items girls spend thier living money on. He made his first show when he was 11 , and opened his first shoe shop in Hackney in an old hospital building. As his designs became recognised, he had a record 8 pages of vogue dedicated to his shows, and Princess Diana as a huge fan.
With an empire worth millions, Jimmy now has a couture and ready-to-wear line, and has further shone in an accessories line. Nice one, Jimmy ;).
Alexander Mqueen.
