Handbag ~ Pick of the Day: Christian Louboutin Maykimay Strass Clutch


I fell in love with the Christian Louboutin Cancan Satin Clutch the moment I laid eyes on it. In fact, I am pretty sure that is the first time I was introduced to Christian Louboutin handbags. I’ve been a fan of his shoes for years now, but his handbags were starting win my approval as well. That is until I saw the Christian Louboutin Maykimay Strass Clutch. Don’t get me wrong, I appreciate the black diamond all-over strass clutch but I think it is just too much. Moreover, I would imagine with daily wear and tear the fabulous stones (which you will be paying a hefty price for) might start falling off. Sure, if a stone falls off you *could* continue to use it. But I imagine if you are anything like me, there is no way you could get over the fact that a stone or two are missing out of your mind. If I am going to be spending money on a Christian Louboutin handbag, I don’t think this would be the one. Yet, if it suits your style, buy through Net-a-Porter for $2,625.

D.S Pick of the Day: Salvatore Ferragamo Suede Two-Tone Heel Pumps




The plum suede is gorgeous, and really we don’t see shoes in this shade enough. I love the sleek shape of this pump. It almost exudes “I’m a tough chick. Don’t f*$k with me!” The standout feature of this pump, though, is the sexy two-tone metallic heel! It compliments the plum suede perfectly and adds just a touch of sexy edge. I’m also glad to see some pumps lately sans platform. Don’t get me wrong—I love my platforms and for comfort, they are crucial! But there is just something so sexy about a pump with a stiletto heel and no platform. It makes the heel look longer and the appearance of the shoe is just more streamlined and less clunky. Unfortunately, I bet these shoes aren’t that comfy, or at least not as comfy as a pump with a platform, so don’t forgot your foot petals!

These pumps are the perfect addition to any career gal’s closet. They’ll be gorgeous with suits or more casual office attire, like a gray sweater dress. And don’t be afraid to throw them on with some dark jeans and a sweater after work! They’ll look chic no matter what you pair them with!

Dream Homes: Pick of the Week


“It’s one large, abstract sculpture,” architect Edward R. Niles says of the house he designed for Bruce and Marilyn Gillis in Beverly Hills. “We wanted something unique and timeless and beautifully finished—not just a beautiful façade,” adds Bruce Gillis. “A house for the 21st century and beyond.” (December 2004)

Who Wore Marley Better?



Kim Kardashian ‘duped’ me into thinking her white blazer was from Balmain when it was actually from Marley.

She wore her blazer with a black mini Balmain skirt, a printed top, and Jil Sander black patent heels when she walked the red carpet for the LA premiere of “The Taking of Pelham 123″.

Rihanna recently stepped out in New York surprisingly wearing the same Marley blazer, when is known for wearing a lot of Balmain.

Her blazer was worn with a grey tee, silver accessories, a heavily embellished Prada clutch, J Brand tie-dye skinny jeans and Maison Martin Margiela ankle boots.

Runway To Photoshoot - Lauren Conrad in Moschino



Lauren Conrard was seen in West Hollywood on Friday looking fabulous for a photo shoot with Harper’s Bazaar.

She was wearing a brunette wig, which I totally love as it really brightens up her face. I hopes she considers this colour for a permanent look.

She was seen carrying many Marc Jacobs bags on her shoot which will fool you into thinking she was wearing Marc Jacobs, but she was actually wearing an embellished jacket from Moschino’s Fall 2009 collection.

Dark navy jeans and lusty worthy heels complete the look.

12th Annual Shanghai International Film Festival



Halle Berry looked breathtakingly beautiful wearing a one-shouldered lilac Marchesa chiffon gown. Does this women ever have a day off not looking gorgeous?

The outstanding gown had silver crystal embroidery details on the bodice, which matched her bangles.

The actress is still working her sexy short do, but will eventually shave it off completely for her new movie “Nappily Ever After”. Brave girl.

It only Monday morning and we have two contenders for Best Dressed Of The Week.

Women In Film's 2009 Crystal and Lucy Awards


Excuse me whilst I pick my chin off the floor.

I’ve waited my whole lifetime for Jennifer Aniston to wow me, and she does wearing this Prada Spring 2009 silver metallic crushed dress.

What I love about this look the most is the confidence she exudes. It’s oozing from every pore and for me that’s more captivating than the colour and the cut.

Jen could have gone for the safer runway dress as it’s in her favourite colour - Black, but she not only opted for the silver dress, but a shorten silver dress plus she didn’t press it like Nicole Kidman did.

This may not sit well with Jennifer Aniston’s loyal fans as this is such a huge departure from her usual style, but I love it.

Oh and I hate to be crude, but where did those twins sprout from?

37th Annual AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards



Kim Kardashian for me the worst dressed at this event. She did a complete 180 from her previous looks.

I love her hair and make-up, but the Ports 1961 strapless gown is way too gaudy for my liking. The runway version wouldn’t have suited her either.

Who Wore Matthew Williamson?



What the…?? Rihanna and Beyonce appear to be playing tag with what they wear.

Only 2 weeks ago I featured Beyonce vs. Rihanna wearing Helmut Lang. This time Beyonce is following Rihanna wearing Matthew Williamson.

Rihanna was the first to wear this Matthew Williamson gathered leather coat as a dress when she shopped at Intermix in New York last month.

With her trademark crazy hairstyle, she wore her dress/coat with black boots, shades and reptile accessories.

Beyonce wore the same coat as a coat, when she was spotted departing London’s Heathrow airport this week.

Her look was completed with superstar shades, a Sretsis clara tiered dress, and Gucci Iman ankle strap sandals.

Monte Carlo Television Festival



Kim Kardashian’s first look at this festival was a black Lela Rose sleeveless dress with a contrast grosgrain belt and a disc hem.

Her sophisticated look was paired with black Jil Sander heels.

She showed off her womanly curves in an ultra-feminine one-shouldered dusky pink dress for her second look. Nude Louboutin’s completed my favourite look of the three.

Kim brought out the sunshine wearing a flirty Ina Soltani strapless yellow dress with a ruffled bodice, which she also wore with nude Louboutin’s.

You will notice in all of these looks that Kim doesn’t wear any accessories, she shines on her own. I’m glad to see her return to a more respectable style of dressing after a slight detour to tackyville.

Kim Kardashian's White Jacket was from Marley, Not Balmin



When I saw a Kim Kardashian at “The Taking Of Pelham 123″ LA premiere, I said that she was wearing a white Balmain jacket.

But was she???

Intermix has a white bold shouldered jacket on their website, which bares a very strong resemblance to the Balmain jacket.

On second glance, it’s clear that Kim’s jacket is the Marley version as they both have rounded edges, and the Balmain jacket is square.

Easy mistake to make, but at least we have all found a cheaper alternative.
