Buy of the week


This week was exciting for fashionistas worldwide with Miu Miu launching e-commerce site. So now it's easy to get your fix of quirky accessories, amazing handbags, funky clothes and much more. The sister brand of Prada is a label to go to for many when looking for something cool. I'm in love with this handbag that not only looks good but has a perfect size and is practical as you can wear it over the shoulder. Result!
Have a stylish day.

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.



My favourite high-street shop - Zara

Hands down Zara is one of my favourite high-street shops. If not the number one! They are good at interpreting designer trends in their own way and their accessories are not to be missed. I visited recently and wanted to buy everything! It's good quality at very reasonable prices and whatever you're after you're likely to find it there. If your favourite trend for spring/summer is colour blocking, this is the place to go. The selection is second to none. Prefer more minimalistic wardrobe, full of white and neutrals? Yep they have it! You can stock up for warmer months and it won't break your bank. What's not to like? Here's few pictures from their look book. I want it all!
Have a stylish day.

The journey of a dress

I am a big fan of Diane von Furstenberg - what an inspiring woman. Believe it or not, she has been designing beautiful clothes for over 40 years. What better to look back over your succesful career than exhibition showing your work, collection of art and much more. Well if you're lucky enough and happen to be in Beijing, China or planning a trip there soon, make sure you check out this amazing display. It opened last week and is running through May 14th. The exhibit was previously shown in Moscow and Sao Paolo, but continues to evolve. You can expect her famous wrap dress from 1973, personal items from her archive and work comissioned by famous artists among other things. I'd love to visit but unfortunately are going to miss it. If you go and see it please let me know.
Have a stylish day.
