InstaMonday

1. There's still time to enter my giveaway! Have you entered yet?

2. Apart from the sights, Selfridges is my favourite place in London. I love the atmosphere in there and it's simply the best shopping destination.

3. When in Selfridges, it'd be rude not to visit the beauty hall. Latest purchase - Mac Ruby Woo aka the perfect red.

4. So apparently it was the first National handbag day last week and I celebrated showing few of my faves.

5. I love fashion illustration and these blank cards are perfect for writing thank you notes.

 

Have a stylish day.

I've been feeling really lucky/happy lately as lot of great things have been happening, I attended some great events, the weather has been great and it was my birthday on Monday. I got spoilt by many people and met some incredible new ones. Here is few of my snaps from the past few days.

Selfridges launch party

I've been a busy bee lately, but managed to squeeze a night out on Wednesday. It was for a special occasion - I surely couldn't have missed a party thrown by Selfridges (my favourite department store), launching The Film project at the Selfridges hotel. The venue and everything about the party was gorgeous. Best party food ever including lobster (so yummy), freshly made sandwiches right in front of your eyes, ice cream, popcorn - you name it, they had it. The champagne was flowing, resulting in a massive headache the next day and the party guests included Laura Bailey, Henry Holland and Gareth Pugh to name a few.
Here is what I wore:
tapered pants I bought in Zara NYC nearly two years ago and still love them loads!, Zara booties and bag, Michael Kors top and watch, YSL arty rings

Party feet by Mulberry

So good to be back to blogging. Last few days have been very hectic and I've abandoned my blog slightly, which I never want to do, but sometimes kind of have to. Anyway good to be back to it and with a post that is very special to me, because I've discovered my dream shoe - literally! Really it's so perfect I can't believe it. I've been looking for the pair that ticks all the right boxes for a while. Being tall I wanted something not so high, but it's harder to find. I wanted a pair that I can wear for many different occassions - for a day with jeans, but also when I want to dress up a bit. Something that'll be comfy but pretty. Well these beauties by Mulberry are all that and more. Obviously I love the gorgeous shade of fuchsia, that is so me. These shoes just scream my name. I am not into anything too girly (despite my love of pink) and normally don't wear bows and frills and things like that, but in this case I even like the bow. I think the fact that is a strong colour makes the shoes very feminine but sexy. It was love at first sight when I discovered them at the Selfridges website. My favourite is the kitten heel version and you can buy them here. They also come as flats and higher heel so there is the perfect pair for everyone. Yes even for people who don't like pink, because there is also black and nude version. What does your perfect pair of shoes look like?

Have a stylish day.

Christian Louboutin pop-up shop

Yesterday I went to Selfridges aka my idea of heaven and spent a substantial amount of time in their Shoe galleries (a must visit place), talking shoes and handbags with the lovely Susie Erskine from Louboutin world and of course visited the Christian Louboutin pop-up shop, which opened yesterday and has been very busy since the minute the doors opened. Yes, it was a day many girls dream of. If you love shoes (show me a girl who doesn't) you should definitely pay a visit. It's on the ground floor at Selfridges, right at the corner of Wonder room (where all the dreamy jewellery is sold).
I've been talking about the Louboutin 20 years anniversary quite a lot. A told you about the exhibition, showed you few of the sketches they've come out with and now in this pop-up shop, you can buy the limited edition shoes and bags. But you better hurry, as they've been flying of the shelves. I fell in love with two pink pairs (surpise surprise!) - one was a pair of sandals with crystal details - so beautiful and the other was a bright pink pump with a black flower decoration (see the yellow version in picture below). Both were too small - how typical. I'm going to have and show you more pictures soon, but for now, here are photos I took of the shop-windows accompanying the event (it's a moving display and looks much better in reality) and few photos from the Shoe galleries.

H&M's other collaboration

Compared to the hype of H&M X Versace collaboration, there's been relatively no press coverage about another, smaller, upcoming collaboration. And this one I am actually very excited about. When I first heard about Versace I couldn't wait to see it, but in the end it wasn't really me. I loved one (pink studded) dress but wouldn't queue up for it. To be honest, when there's too much hype about something, it tends to put me off.
That's one of the reason why I'm excited about the Sophia Neophitou-Apostolou limited collection, not only much less people seem to know or talk about it, the minimalistic designs are more my style. Full of timeless classics in mostly creams and blacks with gold accents and simple cuts, those are versatile pieces, wardrobe basics every woman should own. I can't wait to hit Selfridges, the only place that will be selling those exclusively, on Thursday November 24th when the collection comes out. I'm interested to see the prices and am glad that queues are unlikely. I shall report back to you.
Have a stylish day.

Jewelled Wednesday by YSL

One of my favourite shopping destination in London, after Selfridges, is definitely Mayfair. Not only there is wide selection of great butiques, I like the area for its architecture and atmosphere. There's just something about it! Whenever I'm around I always make sure I pop into the YSL store om Old Bond Street. I'm sucker for their stuff, especially handbags and jewellery (shoes are too high for me - I'm 5'11 already..). I'm a collector of arty rings. Well I've got two at the moment but I'm getting another one for Christmas and plan on adding more. When I visited last week I took few pictures of their lates pieces. Apart from the arty selection I'm loving the chunky necklace and bracelet and... oh well everything. I am addicted! Which one is your favourite?

Stylish homes at Selfridges

It's always good to grab a bargain. Whether you're treating yourself or your home, when you save some pounds it can only be good. That's why I was happy today when I recieved an e-mail from Selfridges announcing their home sale, just in time for my Stylish home post. Don't worry if you can't head down there as the sale is online as well. Result! From bedrom, through bathroom to home technology, there is something for everyone. I couldn't help but bring you this colourful cushion. With spring being officialy here and Easter coming up, it's the right time to update your home environment. This sale couldn't have come at a better time.
Have a stylish day.

Get pampered with Tom Ford

By now, you may know how much I love Tom Ford. So you can imagine how excited I'm about this post. The master of everything he does, turned his magic powers to spa products. Described as "Holiday in your bathroom," you can expect something lovely for your skin. Plus with Ford behind it, luxurious seems to perfect word to describe it. I can't wait to test it and bet it's going to be on my list of products I can't live without. Love the sexy advert (you wouldn't expect anything less) and the packaging (again expected). Seems like this man can do no wrong. The spa range is sold exclusively at Selfridges and you can buy it online at selfridges website. I think this is a wonderful way to spoil your mum this Mothers day.
Have a stylish day.
