When an email from The Outnet pinged into my inbox today annoucing tomorrow's Alexander McQueen sale, I just had to share the news with you! If there's one brand to invest in at the moment it's Alexander McQueen, since the sad passing of the man himself the label's archive pieces have become sought after and are guaranteed future classics. Fans of the label should be poised by their computers at 10am GMT time tomorrow when the sale kicks off.

THE PURR-FECT LOUBOUTINS
The Daily Mail online has run a story today about Gossip Girl's Blake Lively stepping out in a pair of Christian Louboutin 'lion paw' heels. The feline-inspired furry courts come complete with raised toe sections with jewelled claws to mimic the look of a lion's paw. The new style of Louboutin are fast becoming a celeb must-have, having been pictured on fashion icon Sarah Jessica Parker in August.
What do you think of Blake's unusual choice of footwear? I'm personally a massive fan and pro any designer pioneering quirky, original trends. Get your paws on a pair of Louboutins at net-a-porter.com!

MY LITTLE PONY HAIR HANDBAG
I love anything pony hair, its unique selling point is that it can add a touch of luxury to any ensemble. And this season it looks set to be the fashionista's du jour choice for accessories, with all the big brands bringing out ponyhair totes, pumps and belts. My favourite pony hair accessory I have spied thus far is this fantastic Marc by Marc Jacobs shoulder bag from Netaporter.com. The bag isn't made from real leather, however, but instead PVC combined with mock-pony hair effect, which does bring the price down considerably making this little baby an almost affordable 250. Gallop to the shops for yours before it's too late! Available at Net-a-porter.com.

STARRY EYED

It appears that star-gazing is the amusement of the moment, with the beeb dedicating several hours of programming to live constellation watching with the oddly dishy Professor Brian Cox this week. And the BBC aren't the only ones inspired by the far-away galaxies this January; the fashion world too has it's eyes to the night's skies. To illustrate my point, feast your eyes on this amazing sculptural hem Christopher Kane party dress, complete with a dazzling galatic print. Kane's collection dropped at Net-a-porter.com this week, and unsuprisingly the above dress has already sold out. Shop the rest of the collection here, it's literally out of this world.

TIME FOR TEA

There's no bigger treat than afternoon tea in my opinion; this year for my birthday my sister treated me to a sumptious afternoon of tea in the fabulous Bar 190, located in the Gore Hotel in London, where I ate the most delicious roasted vegetable sandwiches (with the crusts cut off, naturally) I have ever consumed. I can't think of a better way to celebrate my love for the British past time of taking tea than to wear this fabulous 'Margaret' leather cuff, complete with adorable teapot charm, fresh out of Mulberry's A/W 10 collection. Priced at £85, this charm allows mere mortals like myself to buy into a bit of that Mulberry magic when an Alexa bag is completely out of the question.
Buy your 'Margaret' (named after another British treasure, Princess Margaret) here .

LULA LOVES

...Has anyone heard of Lula magazine before? I have to admit I haven't, but I've just stumbled across the title after spotting a collaboration between Harvey Nichols and the aforementioned on harveynichols.com. Anyway, the partnership is nothing short of a match made in heaven; to put it simply this has to possibly be the most beautiful collection of fashion and accessories I have ever seen in my life! Highlights of the range include dresses designed by Erdem, Sonia Rykiel and Rodarte; eye-boggling, bedazzling, sparkly shoes by Miu Miu, and a seriously covetable, delicious plum velvet skirt (pictured above) by a new designer to me, Rachel Antonoff.
Alongside pieces that ooze sheer femininity sit super-cool Rodarte logo tees and sweaters in casual grey marl. Everything in the range has been selected by the Lula magazine team to enable Harvey Nichols' customers to buy into the Lula look, which I gage to be an exciting combination of overtly feminine pieces, (that wouldn't look out of place in a episode of mad men) pared with the odd quirky logo tee in an un-expected, delightful twist. The shapes too, are very current, a-line flared mini skirts and 50s style shift dresses in skater shapes look so fresh and youthful. Investigate the collection for yourself here, and prepare to fall under Lula's spell...
