Vivienne Westwood Loves Carrie
To celebrate the release of the most fashion forward movie of all time ‘Sex and the City: The Movie’, Vivienne Westwood’s Conduit Street store recently showcased the spectacular gold-backed ivory silk satin duchess gown, from is autumn/winter 07/08 collection, in its window.

A question I asked myself; did Vivienne personally write the note accompanying the gown she sent to Carrie? She certainly did!
If you fancy yourself a bit of a Carrie the Westwood gown is made to order at Vivienne Westwood Couture and Bridal; call +44 (0) 20 6293757 for more info or visit viviennewestwood.com.

Sex and the City movie
Since series one of Sex and the City aired in 1998 I have, along with many of my girlfriends, been waiting not so patiently for the inevitable movie. It was 10 years worth the wait because the movie did not disappoint! I was lucky enough to get tickets to one of the first preview screenings on Monday 2nd June and have not been able to stop talking about it since. I don’t want to ruin it for those of you who have yet to see it but if you are after wedding day inspiration look no further than the spectacular shoot Carrie Bradshaw does for American Vogue. Featuring the cream of the crop couture designers Oscar de la Renta, Vivienne Westwood, Dior and many others it’s definitely drool worthy. I caught myself crying more than once and not just through the happier bits!

The fashion is amazing, the story line is actually better than I had imagined it would have been and the girls look fantastic. I have to point out that Miranda looked sensational!! The men, on the other hand, haven’t aged as gracefully as I’d hoped, although you can’t help but fall madly in love with Charlotte’s husband Harry. He is the sweetest man ever!!

Myer 3 Weeks in New York launch
Wednesday 14 May 2008



Emma and I were so excited to receive our invites for the Myer 3 Weeks in New York launch. A party in the Myer store sounded fantastic but the disco theme was what really excited us. We donned our sparkles and enjoyed the delicious Cosmopolitans and miniature finger food. The Naked Cowboy made a rather ‘naked’ appearance, along with McLeod’s Daughters star Doris Younane and Princess Mary’s bestie Amber Petty.

A Sparkling Dream
Well it's hard to believe but the Festive Season is slowly creeping upon us. This became evident when I received a cute little package from Swarovski with pictures of their gorgeous Christmas ornaments and jewellery for 2008. Christams is a wonderful time in my household and with young children amongst the family making the tree look beautiful is something I take great pride in. I absolutely love the snow flake! Although we don't get snow over Christmas like many countries do nothing beats a gorgeous, shiny flake hanging from a full, green branch. Gorgeous ornaments also make great pressies.
