Marie Claire September Issue

The Fashion Issue starring Anne Hathaway.


I love this photo of Anne Hathaway in the "One Day" (book by David Nicholls) special. The photos are beautiful but this one I think doesn't look like her at first.It is stunning and elegant. Black and white shows the good contrast and the light on her face showing true beauty.I like the dress too.
Check out the article and photos in this months Marie Claire.

Today...while i'm writing this I am wearing..

My new gorgeous shoes from New Look! 

New Look have some great shoes in at the moment for the new season. Great colour palette that is going to do serious damage to my bank! 

Little Liberty

Liberty is re-launching it's children's department in February 2012, due to customer demand. It ceased carrying kidswear six years ago and plans to stock fashion, accessories, books, furniture,toys and gifts in the new third- floor department. And a Liberty-print kidswear line is expected to follow later on in the year.
Kidswear is one of the main things they get asked about. It will be an electric mix that blurs the line between designer and contemporary.


Ed Burstell revelaed that the department will carry childrenswear by Isabel Marant and Acne,both making their childrenswear debut,as well as Stella McCartney, Lanvin, 3.1, Philip Lim and Little Marc.

Lara Stone face of Tom Ford Violet Blonde

Lara Stone is already the face of Tom Ford Beauty. She is now also fronting the ad campaign for Tom Ford's "Violet Blonde" fragrance. The ad has a healthy infusion of raw sex appeal and sensuality.

I love the bold colours used, Lara Stone fits the ad well I think.
