Ultimate Christmas gifts for her
In my latest gift guide I am focusing on some gifts for the lady in your life. This could be your mother or your daughter, your sister or your aunt, your niece or your nan. It could even be your best friend or a teacher. Everyone has a special lady who you want to treat to an extra special present, so this is a list that is well worth bookmarking for ideas and inspiration. I have focused on four different stores and websites. I’m starting with Selfridges, who this year are wishing us all a starry Christmas with their constellation/celestial ranges. My absolute number one pick from Selfridges in terms…

Christmas treats for the feet
Feet! Probably the most maligned parts of our body and certainly ones most in need of love and tender care when it comes to Winter. From trudging through all manner of inclement weather – snow, sludge, rain puddles that seem to reach your knees, to losing all that freedom they enjoy in Summer sandal season, our feet seem to be constantly cold, constantly wet, and definitely in need of a pamper once December arrives. In honour of tootsies everywhere, this post is dedicated to all things feet, from cute socks and tights that brighten up the darkest day, to real pampering treats that will make even the driest, cracked skin…

Christian Louboutin lipsticks launch at Selfridges
First it was the shoes that made grown women drool like babies. Sleek, skyscraper heels with an unmistakable red sole. Next it was the nail polish, in that same shade of deep rouge, with packaging that just screamed glamour and decadence. Now Christian Louboutin has expanded his beauty line by adding lipstick to the range. The collection has 36 shades, and is now available at Selfridges. The soon to be iconic Louboutin Lipstick collection comes in three types: Silky Satin, Velvet Matte, and Sheer Voile. The Silky Satin collection has 20 colour varieties, with nine types in Velvet Matte and Sheer Voile respectively. Once again, the packaging is…

Selfridges Christmas – Journey to the Stars
Christmas in July has been and gone, with Selfridges once again pushing the boundaries when it comes to unusual Christmas campaigns. This year the theme is a mystical, celestial one, with the title being ‘Journey to the Stars’ and the focus being the Christmas star, linking collections to astronomy, astrology and spirituality. This theme led to a truly magical press day, with an abundance of midnight blue and silver when it came to fashion. Handbags from the likes of Vivienne Westwood, Alexandra McQueen and Marc Jacobs all tied in beautifully with the theme, and astrological star sign jewellery from Tatty Devine is sure to be a popular Christmas gift this…

Alexa Chung for AG Jeans
She’s done it again. The supremely stylish and unique Alexa Chung launched her new collection for AG Jeans last week and the collection is now available at Selfridges. Totally channeling a 70s vibe which seems to combine Jodie Foster in Freaky Friday with Daisy Duke, the collection is full of a-line mini skirts in denim and suede, dungarees and kick flare jeans, and pussy bow blouses. I actually think if you combined the outfits of both Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster in Freaky Friday, you get Alexa’s collection, sort of grown up glamour and geeky youthfulness all in one! With a social circle that seems to include all of London’s…
