Louis' Trunk Show


My fashion twin has invited me to Paris for an exhibition!! (it must mean she loves me!)
Anyways, Louis Vuitton is holding a trunk show at the Musee Carnavalet showcasing the most famous trunks and detailing LV luggage history in transport.

I am especially excited to see all the trunks which travelled to Africa on safari back in the 30's and 40's

Watch the clips below! The interview with Patrick Louis Vuitton is super sweet!!
(Don't forget to activate the subtitles x)






Why does everything in Paris have to be so magical?? Even the Museums are amazing and inspiring!!





Hopefully we will coincide with the sales at La Fayette - I also have to visit Collette!!

Runway to Realway!!!

Thanks to my Friend Maria I am able to do my first "Real" Runway to Realway post!!
She rocked up to work today and casually point out her brand spanking new shiny Prada flats!! from the A/W 2010 collection.
Obviously after painfully holding back my squeals of delight and complimenting them profusely I asked for a shot of them with this post in mind!

She had gone on a rampage at Selfridges shoe hall
(did I mention I have dare not set foot in that place for fear of breaking down??)
 and mentioned that they had all the various heel heights but she opted for the flats. Good choice, but she has tinky tiny feet (36 I believe) and for big footed people like me (39.5) they will look like skis because of the exaggerated pointed toe. I would need to go for the high or mid heeled version.

Who can't remember this awesome collection?!
 And although Louis Vuitton did 50's glam best this season Prada were a very close second.

Watch this space tomorrow I will don my Prada-esque outfit
(Unfortunately minus the perfect pussy bow shoes.)

Maria Teamed her flats with a black lace panelled skater skirt (Knee length) a plain black top and several strands of white pearls. Chic Perfection! Also some of my faves from the show!

Don't they look like little mice (Sweet)

Brand Discovery Alert!!!! - VIVETTA

I went to visit my little boutique I like in Angel today (Workshop) and I found the ceutest brand since I discovered my Anneil pumps (below)
As I don't really do "casual", I tend to dress cute rather than sporty when I do dress down and boy does this label know how to do cute!!!
I fell in love with this guards jacket the instant I tried it on. Its Primary firebox red and the buttons, pockets and collar all in super soft black velvet. (and I looked like a real guard with my fur hat on!!! sorry for the crummy pic)
I also tried on the marble print velvet skirt (shown below with the bow tied shirt) but it was too big :(
As soon as I got home I googled them. See my "cute as a button" picks below!

Red Guards Jacket £355.00 (Yes please Santa)



















I think its time for an ebay steak out for seasons past!!!
