UPDATING A CHIC WARDROBE

Are you updating a wardrobe or thinking about adding some cool fashionable or classic pieces before the year ends? Then stay with me while I show you some stunning items which I discovered recently.

As you have already gleaned from the previous post, I am so into my leather jackets right now. If you do not have one, ladies, you gotta get one in the style that best suits you. And urgently. They are so versatile and cool. But what you mustn't do is buy faux leather. That just won't cut it.

This Philipp Plein leather jacket will set you back a few many $$,000 but we just love it's individuality. Who knew crocodile skin made a fabulous jacket?

Another find which I am so happy to talk about is The Celine Cobalt Blue bag which we simply adore.

This bag is simply a winning staple in any diva's wardrobe but if you have been out priced, then at least aim to have some accessories in this beautiful bold colour. This colour says 'I am confident and pack a style, don't I know it'.

So what is the alternative you might ask? Here...

A shade of sunglasses that turns everything in your sight into a beautiful realm.

Black is the new black

New beginnings new start. We bought a house, finally, after what seemed like a struggle through major bidding wars. Partly down to an iniquitous dilly dallying estate agent and determined buyers like ourselves who were relentless in out bidding each other. 

It is fair to say that after bidding almost 10pc above the asking price on our ideal home and losing it to the other buyers who mysteriously "matched" our offer every single time, we quickly became very smart if we were to stand any chance of winning this game. I can now reveal we are moving very soon after baby proofing the new home :-)

You can now imagine what the house is beginning to look like, sorting through our possessions, especially my bags. And then I couldn't help but peek online to see if I'd find something chic for summer 2014. All my girlfriends would attest to the fact that I do not own a black bag except for small clutches. So it was even surprising to me that I have taken a liking to these.

Have a look and tell me what you think.
