Harrods

As part of my birthday surprises, I got a letter from Harrods with a £100 giftcard! I thought maybe it was a present from some benevolent uncle who couldn't think of what to get me ... until I saw the "you've been specially chosen .... have to spend £250 or more".

Now I dont even know how they got my details or why I was specially chosen - especially as I haven't shopped there in a WHILE but I'm tempted! Now all I need is for them to have a loubou sale ..... :-D

I know there is one of those dept stores that doesn't or didn't stock loubou shoes. I hope it's not them. Fingers crossed and prayers - they have a sale before the end of the month. In the meantime, I checked out their bags ...

Loving these:

1. Vivienne Westwood Berkley Clutch

2. MOSCHINO CHEAP & CHIC - Pearl Bow Clutch. This also comes in black


I clearly have a thing for bows and clutches.

I also saw these in their jewellery collection.

1. Lara Bohinc - Solar Eclipse Cuff.

I'm a big fan of Bohincy (as I call her in my head) - her designs are great. Only annoying thing is apart from the high end stuff which is like tens of thousands, the normal stuff is all gold plated - basically super high priced costume jewellery or panda. Love this cuff though.

Also love this burberry watch

Bring on the Harrods sale!

Birthday Post!

It was my birthday on the 2nd and I had a totally fabulous day. I always have to wear something new on my birthday so even though I wasn't sure what I was going to wear, I bought this from M&S.



M&S do great lingerie generally- slight more limited with the bigger ranges but generally quite nice. I usually get nice sets there and when they are on sale, the prices are fantastic. I also love their vest and short combos. They are easy, comfy and sexy all in one. I wear them to sleep, I wear them as tops, I wear them to potter around the house - they just work with everything! Plus at £6 for each set even full price, it's more than affordable!

These are some more from the range that I want.



In the end I ended up wearing my bcbg colour block dress - my first ebay buy :-D

FCUK Sample Sale

I went on Sunday and got a few lovely things - I always get nice stuff from their sales - very pleased with my Pur-CHA-ses :-D




I looked on the website before hand to see what I wanted and this was the only dress I actually found in the place and it was my size - perfect! (well i fit into it but i just need to lose a few pounds and it wont look quite soo filled ;-)




I got it for £30 but it's still £75 in the shops - result!


___________________________________________________________


Now for the other things I want when they finally go in the sale

This dress is just yummy - fits my white summer dress profile and I just love the back! (You will need to click on the picture to see it on the actual website)

I would actually settle for any of their maxi dresses - (Also really like the Secret Island Dress) well apart from the ones with the funky CrissCross thing sticking out in the middle.

Loubous on outnet!

Ok I'm in love with Christian Louboutin Shoes and they are on my 101 things - in that I must own one this year :-D
The theoutnet.com currently has these on sale and they are gorgeous! Which to pick???
1. Rosazissimo satin sandals - nicely sold out but gorg!

2. Altadama astrakhan platforms - love love the height! Also sold out. Damn!:-(

3. Papilipi satin pumps - really like the butterfly effect - this is still available! Can i squeeze into a 38? Lollll

4. Hercule leather pumps - Now this I like cos of the embellishments - the studs are fierce! Many sizes left.

5. Fully Prive tag sandals - I absolutely love these - the shape and the tortoiseshell patent leather - soo hot! Not really my size - why???? :-(


6. Mary-Jane pumps - these are very cute.


7. Dracullette suede pumps - These are also cute and quite possibly the only ones left in my size - why??? :-(

Out of those left in my size the only ones I quite like are these and just because of the heel. Click on the picture to check out the other views.

Guessing its not yet my time. My favourite ones are the Prive wedges and the Altadama Astrakhan platforms. Some time this year just you wait - loll - even if it has to be my birthday/christmas/it's summer buy.

Zanotti Zebra Shoe & Pierre Hardy

Saw these on one of my favourite shoe blogs ever - A woman and her shoes. Aida does awesome profiles of some weird and wonderfully but utterly unique and beautiful shoes.

These Zanotti shoes just called out to me.







I like animal prints and stripes. Plus I also like the way they looked on the model.









Also saw these which I think are quite interesting. I swear I must have been a tall skinny wench with endless legs in a past life cos my attention keeps straying to items that would suit those kind of people. Much like these Pierre Hardy shoes ...

Kenneth Jay lane - Audrey Pearl Necklace

I came across this website on Onada's and checked it out. I like KJL's stuff and have a bought a couple on my wardrobe. But I especially love love this.





It is soo elegant and tasteful and I just want it! A little pricey for my blood right now but here's hoping.

Dream Bag - Heloise

I've been in love with this Chloe Heloise for about 2 years now.


3 Chloe sample sales in and it's yet to appear but here's hoping. Last sample sale I ended up buying this bay bag in the yummiest purple colour ever. It is soo rich it is almost black. Plus it has a slightly metallic hue to it. I love it soo! It was my 4mths too early birthday present to myself. The instant the Heloise makes it to sample sale prices - hello!
