Miu Miu Swallow Shoes Versus River Island Cherry Shoes

Share

I have been in love with Miu Miu's sparrow shoes ever since I saw them on one of my favourite blogs by the Cherry Blossom Girl.

My budget this month can't extend to the real thing!  But now I have come across the next best thing... River Island Cherry Shoes!


Ok so they have a peep toe and they are not quite as fabulous as the real thing, but they are pretty good copies, right?!?

I think I will have to pop over to River Island to give these babies a go.  At £54.99 who I am to say no??!?

Chanel Replica Tattoos!

Share

If you were lusting after the Chanel tattoos that were released in February this year but couldn't bear to part with fifty quid for a few transfers that will come off in the shower, then don't despair!  ASOS are now stocking a range of tattoos called the Art of Love which are only £6!

These tattoos may not have the 'double C' logo, but they do scream Chanel with the chains and birds.  Swoon!

MAC's Venomous Villains

Share

Everybody loves a villain, and that's why MAC has teamed up with Disney to produce the Venomous Villains Collection.  Expect intense colours like black matte eyeshadow, cherry red lipstick and teal green nail polish.  The launch is for September this year so unfortunately we have to wait a few weeks more before we can see what the collection is like!  :-(

Villains of Disney Collection

The collection comprises of a significantly large 40 pieces and is split over four villains - Evil Queen, Cruella de Vil, Maleficent and Dr. Facilier.

My favourite villain has to  be the Evil Queen from Snow White.  As she is overshadowed by a young, beautiful step daughter and a lack of botox in those days, no wonder she is angry!

I love MAC limited edition collections but you have to be quick to buy them.  As soon as they come out, they sell out.

Katy Perry's California Gurls

Share

I'm loving Katy Perry's new music video for California Gurls.  Its based on the boardgame Candy Land where Katy has to save all of her dancers from the evil Snoop!

Click here to see the video.


It must have been great fun to make that video.  Completely delicious!

The Uniform Project

Share

I'm back!  Its been a busy few weeks for me as I have been trying to get my business off the ground... there are so many bumps along the road but hopefully it will be worth it.

Yesterday I came across a charity website called The Uniform Project and I was so inspired by the idea behind it!  Starting in May 2009, Sheena Matheiken pledged to wear one dress only for a whole year.  So this may be no big deal, but if you look at the website you can see that the girl has style!  It looks like she is wearing a different outfit every day.


Sheena has been raising money for the Akanksha Foundation which funds education for children living in India's slums.  She has nearly raised £100,000 for the year and has successful put 263 children in school.  Pretty impressive methinks.

Check out The Uniform Project's website and prepared to be inspired with what you can do with one little dress!  And more importantly, the cause behind it.

Bag Charms

Share

Some people are really into shoes, others into bags, but I have to say that my vice is clothes.  Shoes can be quite expensive and sure your feet look great in a smart pair, but I think a new outfit can totally change your appearance.

I do like to carry a good bag, but I find it hard to justify spending £300, £400, or even £500 + on the latest designer satchel when I could get a whole new look by spending that money on clothes!

So my solution?  Buy bag jewellery to give a new lease of life into existing bags!

These stylish charms by Aspinal of London don't cost a fortune and would look great on any type of bag.  



On a canvas tote bag you could add these cute charms by VooDolls.  These little collectables are only £8 each and are said to 'unleash power' once you add them onto your bag/phone.  Sweet! 
Lanvin bag with pom pom - £1,515
Pom Pom on its own - £125

And if you are feeling flush you could always invest in a Lanvin pom pom fob.  Add it to a respectable high street bag and people may think that you have just parted with well over a grand for a designer showpiece.

Fashion Cakes

Share

I'm detoxing this week and its hard... I've got a holiday to Ibiza coming up and in order to be Bikini Ready I've left any sensible eating habits behind me in return for a quick-fix one week detox consisting of fresh raw juices.  My stomach has been grumbling the past few days and to top it all off, my boyfriend and flatmate only want to watch cookery programmes on TV which leaves me drooling!


Here are some yummy fashion treats to inspire me to keep going!  I'll treat myself once I've finished detoxing.  I love the fashion biscuits that the Berkeley Hotel serves for their afternoon tea (third photo).

5 days to go.  Grrrr...
