I never got round to posting the last outfit look from London Fashion Week - so here goes :0 I love this skirt so much I ended up wearing it again in Milan !! Not too much to write about here - this outfit was probably the least 'London' of the London ones and probably something more fitting for a country like Spain but I felt rally feminine wearing it and actually really, really enjoyed it. This bag is a special one - it was actually my resent birthday present fro m a group pf friends and I loveeee it - the quality is superb and it's original and has a vibe that just makes me smile.

Spotlight on CIVIDINI at Milan Fashion Week

 By: Unknown    03:57  No comments

Miriam and Piero Cividini are partners in business and life. Their fashion design combines  their personalities and clever ideas with a clever mix of handcraft and modern technology. The original small collection of knitwear cashmere has grown significantly over the years and this year their show was one of the most attended at Milan Fashion Week. 

The collection presented is quite a timeless one with a very interesting colour palette. Shades of browns and beiges mixed in with blacks and greys and purples and plums made for very interesting visual interest. Key materials found within the collection are leather, fur, cashmere (of course!) and wool. I also loved the interesting layering styling ideas presented and the hairstyles that really complemented the look.

Shopping : Let's stroke some leather at Coccinelle

 By: Unknown    08:10  No comments

I've decided to post not one but two shopping posts this week and the second one is at Coccinelle who just last week hosted a super event whereby shoppers were sent a piece of material which they then had to pair with a bag and possibly win said bag. I'm really loving their current collection, the colours are so vibrant and beautiful, the leather so soft and supple.

Then there's the smell, somehow the smell of leather of my Coccinelle bags seems more powerful than that of other leather bags.. I actually sometimes place my bag near me at my desk,  just so I can smell it whilst I work - yes I'm aware this might be considered freaky behaviour, who cares, as long as my nostrils are happy....

Coccinelle is located in Sliema Tower Road right next to Solaris . More Coccinelle - related posts here
