SPECIAL SALE

If you happen to have some millions in the bank you might want to check out Kerry Taylor Auctions. On December 8th they will be auctioning some of the dresses Audrey Hepburn wore during her filming career. I think it's an amazing opportunity for everyone to have a piece of fashion hystory, and even if you don't have the money to buy it you might want to go to London just to check it out! Here are a few of the items that they will be selling:




Will you be going to the auction? I'd love to hear how is it!

THE MUST-HAVE BAG OF THE MOMENT

As you all know, there is always an item (and yes I will call it an item!) that is in everybody's whish list. Girls from all over the world would literally die to have what every fashion icon, socialité and vip have in their closet before it's even on the market!
The new "it" bag is the Valentino 360 Hobo Bag
You might remember a scene in the tv series Gossip Girl where Blair introduce herself to a stranger, which she then decides that it will be her new best friend only because this new girl has the 360 Hobo Bag:


However it seems that this bag is really loved among the celebrities also outside the sets, for example Jessica Simpson has been spotted around with this purse more than one time

I personally love this bag, and what I love the most is the bow, which seems to be Valentino' s signature which act as the bag’s closure. My favorite version is this one:


I think it's a beautiful color and not boring at all! What's your favourite color?

All the looks of Cheryl Cole

Here is one of my fave wags of all times, Cheryl Cole on her debute as a judge for the UK version of XFactor. I love this Krystof Strozyna dress. If you do not want to spend thousands and thousands (or if you just don't have them!) then ckeck out the low cost version that you can find in ASOS on sale for only 16£ (http://www.asos.com/). It's practically the same isn't it?
Another look of Cheryl I love is this Matthew Williamson dress she wore, and together with the pony tail and the fresh look of her make up I really think she looks stunning..
Then we have Cheryl in this amazing Hervé Leger dress. It so colorfull that makes her look even more sunny that what she normally is!
On another episode of the XFactor, Cheryl wore a Versace dress wich honestly I don't love. She has such a nice silhouette and this dress doesn't show it at all..The only thing I like about this look is the loose braid which seems to be inspired from the Alexander Wang Spring10 Collection.

And last but not least I wanted to show you her restyled look for the launch of her solo career. From preppy to fashion to a glam/rock look:
What do you think of her new "on stage" look?
