Louis Vuitton Loves

> As you might already know handbags can be a particular weakness of mine as much as 'IT' bags can be on teens for the current season, you can't go wrong with a classic. A bag that is going I am going to be able to wear when I'm twenty, forty and seventy I see them as investments. So with some Chanel & Mulburry already in my collection I am suddenly loving the traditional Louis Vuitton bags. My mum had a few when I was younger and still uses them now, like I said classics. So here are some Louis's I am currently loving! Enjoy x

The Clutch

A bag doesn't just finish an outfit, it makes one, and with bag trends ruling the runway this spring, it’s time to make a statement with a  clutch. Gone are the days when the mini bag was reserved for the evening wardrobe. It’s time to downsize for the day and pair casual chic with a clutch. Team it with an on-trend cuff and a block heel to tick all this season’s boxes, and keep it comfy with a classic tee and a slouchy knit for the ultimate laidback cool.

Parisian Perfection

In the small time that i wasn't busy today in work, I started daydreaming about the lovely Paris. I am feeling the urge so badly to pop on a plane or the Eurostar and head back to Paris and capture every little detail of the city itself. Take as many snap shots (although its never enough) but I just want to see it all over again, gaze around the Louvre, have Afternoon Tea in Angelina's, stock up on Macarons, take a stroll through the Tuileres Gardens and purchase some Parisian stationary and of course stare adoringly at the fabulous outfits and gorgeous architecture... j'adore pari...

Sunshine Yellow: Outfit One

This weekend the weather was fantastic, two glorious days to relax and enjoy the warm sun on your skin, I hope you all had some warm sunshine on you this weekend! It makes such a difference, everyone is upbeat, energetic, Spring/Summer wardrobe is out in full force, BBQ's being lit and my favourite the light late nights. This was the first sunny weekend in Spring and I enjoyed it as much as I could, going to the park with friends, family BBQ, spot of shopping and lazy lunches in the sun. 

Obviously in Britain it wasn't as warm as some of you guys are currently having it, so I tried to get a bit of balance in my outfit. After purchasing some bold colour shoes this weekend I was desperate to wear them with my outfit on Sunday when I went for a bit of lunch with a girlfriend ( plus the colour matched the weather.) So I have decided to post my first ever outfit post (slightly apprehensive I wont deny it) but no holding back, so here is my first ever outfit post!
Enjoy x

A Special Purchase


For some time now, the ‘it’ bag has been made redundant – it’s no longer cool to make a statement with a straight-off-the-runway designer piece, apparently. Well, that was until Mulberry created a little bag called the Alexa for Spring/Summer 2010 that’s sort of thrown a spanner in the ‘it’ bag works.

So how come this new 'it' bag captured our attention and launched itself to be one of Mulberry's biggest sellers, one possible reason for this is that people were starting to consider investment buys. Purchasing items that they knew might make a deeper hole in their skinny jeans but that they knew they could pull off season after season. Fast, throw-away fashion wasn’t actually saving anyone any money so long-term purchases made sense; they satisfied our penchant for an instant buy but became keep-forever pieces, too.

Mulberry- Oversized Alexa

Investment purchases that I agree with 100%, as I have already mentioned on previous posts handbags are my biggest weakness however I so think that I am sensible with my purchases (well most of the time.) Being lucky enough to own two Chanel bags the next bag on my list was as you might have guessed the oversized Alexa. After months of going back on forth on my decision and talking about buying this bag (Alexa is now a part of our family,) I finally went for it an am now the proud owner of Alexa!

However I have a confession as Alexa was not the only Mulberry purchase I made this weekend. After a walk around the Mulberry shop my mum comes towards me with  yellow clutch and says why dont you buy one of these for these clutches for Summer? Already the clogs were going round in my head and I eventually decided upon the Neon Pink Charlie, see I told you I didn't need much persuassion when it came to investment purchases on handbags. So now I am the lucky owner of two Mulberry bags however although they are definetly investments I cant see me making another invstment quite so soon, but I will without a doubt be getting my wear from my two new purchases.
