A personal piece I couldn’t resist after the RTW Pink PP collection was unveiled by Valentino during Paris Fashion Week; featuring the stunning Kristen McMenamy and swathes of pink silk tulle…

Introducing this year’s Christmas card illustration…. ‘All Wrapped Up.’
I wanted to do something quite whimsical and glamorous for these particular holidays. It’s been such a tough year for so many, and some of the frivolity of life has truly gone missing for the most part.
While, for the most part, all of us just want nothing more than to be able to hug and kiss our friends and family members this Christmas, it’s still my favourite time of year, and hopefully something that we can begin to look forward to.
I thought ‘what better way to bring a little bit of fantasy and enchantment than a Valentino-clad shopper, encased in a swirling snow globe!?’
The couture collection that Maison Valentino showed late last year in Beijing was truly spectacular and those metallic gowns with their cascading ribbons and bows were the PERFECT adornment for any gal on Christmas. (I chose the pink and gold gown worn by the phenomenal Adut Akech.)
I do hope that she might bring a bit of sparkle and perhaps a smile to the face of a loved one.
As always she is available in limited quantities, sets of 3 to be precise, in my shop now.

When it comes to Christmas, wishlists used to be so simple.
As kids we'd climb onto the local shopping-centre-Santa's lap and rattle off a long list while ticking off a handful of fingers representing all of our must-have toys; Barbie, Barbie Car, Barbie Dream House...et all.
However, as we get older this tradition gets a little harder. We no longer have the Big Fella in Red to divulge our secret yearnings to, and the price tag of each item also seems to grow along with our age.
So, instead of must-haves, we'll call them lust-haves; the items we'd ask for if Santa's budget was priceless - you know, if he was sitting on a gold throne with a diamond grill in his mouth.
Because when it comes to WISHlists, it's all about the dream, right?
I've also included a few fashionably affordable (read: more likely to appear under the tree) items!
