There are two things of which I am pretty sure of
  1. The Louis Vuitton Valentines Charms are super super cute.
  2. Their price tags won't be.


From left to right:
Winged Heart completed with Rainbow Sapphires
"I Love You" Note pad
Mini Typewriter
Pen and Ink Well
Gold and Pink Lacquer Beribboned Heart
Golden Message in a Bottle
Functional Photo frame with Damier Print.

I think my favourite is the "I Love You" notepad but the picture frame, pink heart and message in a bottle are close contenders.

The latest release from Dior is a fabulous new addition to the house, The New Lock bag is a pretty shoulder bag available in lambskin and python and could very well be Dior's challenger to the Chanel Flap.


My favourite the large cannage embroidery in red.

The sumptuous lambskin is quilted in the cannage embroidery and features three internal compartments and a zip pocket making it both pretty and practical.

Retail £1285

The New Lock really has two origins of it's name one rather obviously being the new lock feature for the bags, the second being the famous Dior New Look created in 1947.

The New Lock measures 26 x 18 x 12 cm

Around two weeks ago I was aimlessly wandering around the Manchester Selfridges shoe department, which by the way really needs to bring back the Louboutins but that's another issue.

What caught my eye was a sparkling rainbow of cuteness if the form of the Marc by Marc Jacobs Disco Mouse ballerina flats

The picture actually makes the shoe look a little dull but in real life they really come into their own, capturing the light at every angle.




The black suede version are available on Net-A-Porter for £235 but the Disco Mouse also come in white.

If you love the Louis Vuitton Leopard scarves but missed the original red versions from the runway, then do I have something you need to see.

Kate Moss with Louis Vuitton Scarf

As now you would only be able to buy the Louis Vuitton on the second hand market, which I wouldn't advise as vast majority are fakes, this Marc by Marc Jacobs scarf is a very, very close substitute.

The Louis Vuitton seasonal selection is thankfully a far cry from those god awful moustached things from the runway.

Lucky You are amongst my top picks from the collection, available in glossy patent black or white leather or a metallic gold, the shoes see the flower designs from the monogram design sown together in this pretty and delicate design.

The Lucky You Ballerina's retail for £440 in white patent leather and £460 in metallic gold. They do not appear to come in patent black.

Lucky You heels stand 9cm, or 3.5inches, are available in all three colours and retail for £465 in patent and £485 in metallic

True story!
Many years ago whilst in the school grounds as a child, a friend asked my what I wanted to be when I grew up, my answer was I'm Going To Be A Princess.

Sadly I am now "grown up" and I am not a Princess, to the best of my knowledge anyway.

Now see maybe that all could have been different if only someone had given me this

I couldn't help but laugh when I found this on the Liberty website, what a perfect stocking filler for Christmas.

Now if only could summon my fairy Godmother to get me this book and I can starting my planning my quest for Princessdom.
Better late than never!

If I'm Going To Be A Princess isn't quite the right plan for you there's always I'm Going To Be A Hero Notebook, I'm Going To Be A Star Notebook and I'm Going To Be Gorgeous Notebook all retailing at £9.95

Spring Summer 2010 is quickly shaping up to be shoe heaven, the latest object of my obsession is the amazing python shoes from Christian Louboutin. The glittering heels have a stuuning silver blue oil on water effect.
Available from matchesfashion.com for £865.





Although the above pair are my top choice these leopard printed python peep toe's are a pretty close contender.
Also available at matchesfashion.com for £815

The only thing I like about Monday's is Net-A-Porters new arrivals updates.

This week brought the two new Exclusives from Christopher Kane, cloud digital prints with two very distinct looks.

The Christopher Kane Midnight print tank dress has a dark almost stormy sky with just a hint of day break.

The Christopher Kane Cloud-print T-shirt has a more optimistic colour palette with the brighter sky and the lumious clouds the sun really does look like it's shining out from the T-shirt.




Both items above retail for £175, I bagged the Midnight Tank dress earlier this evening and I can't wait for it to arrive I love it's dramatic feel yet casual look.

There are other pieces in the collection including silk dresses and even a silk biker jacket although these tend to be princed in £790-800 region.

Edit to Add:
I received the vest dress and unfortunately I will also be returning. I love the print and it does look just like the picture it is also a good material blend it has a soft tactile feel the problem comes from it's fit. The arm holes are very large and the chest panel was quite narrow meaning that you would need to wear a second vest underneath or something over the top that you don't take off.

Over the last few years there has been a big increase in the number of both jewellery and fashion thefts, the latest victim being Victoria Beckham.

75 dresses from the Spring Summer collection which were destined for Neiman Marcus were stolen at knife point after their collection in London, although no one was seriously hurt in the attack the driver is said to be shaken and bruised.

The stolen dresses are estimated to be worth up £350,000

It saddens me to hear of all these high scale thefts and I hope that they will be able to pick up and not let this effect the progress of her fashionline which has gotten off to a very promising start.

Some of the Spring Summer dresses are now available on Net-A-Porter, the Victoria Beckham Jersey and lace mini dress pictured above is just one of those available and retails for £1790.
