Pretty pink kettles

Wearing: Christian Dior jacket (also worn here),  Gucci sunglasses, Ralph Lauren trousers (also here), Twenty8Twelve tee, Roberto Cavalli scarf, Chanel bag (here and here), ASH flats.

Went for afternoon tea last Saturday to a less popular place nearby only to taste heavenly tea, flavours included Apple Loves Mint and Jasmine Dragon. Next time I pop by, I am going to see how well they make my fave beverage – chai latte – a strong flavoured tea with milk and spices.

The day was so tranquil, I’ll probably mentally transport myself to it everytime I am not comfortable with reality. Not necessarily a happy place but a happy day, yes.

Ciao, Milan Fashion Week Fall-Winter 2012-13

Gothic romance at Alberta Ferreti.

Blumarine was just being Blumarine. Bold, sexy and colour-popping.

Luscious and rich village girls ala Malena wears church ornaments at Dolce&Gabbana. It rocks.

Naughty Jackie O’ goes to school at Dsquared.

Less print more texture and structure at Emilio Pucci.

Fur, decadence and some more fur at Fendi.

Suits and colours that mean business at Giorgio Armani.

It seemed that the head of Gucci and Ferreti had too many coffees together as their visions were very similar. More dark and decadent choice for fashionistas.

Autumn exists not for Jil Sander. It’s blooming spring and everyone loves it.

Fur-roucious knits at Missoni.

Look at these three Prada designs. This is what you are going to wear all of next autumn.

Your best leg forward at Cavalli. In fact, it doesn’t have to be your best as long as you are showing a lot of leg.

And in this week’s agenda…

Bagging a great designer steal at an almost criminally low price is what I specialise in.

Last week, for example, I was fortunate enough to grab a DKNY bag for under £15.

What’s that I hear? Lucky bitch? That maybe. But I do think that an eye for a great bargain is a skill that can be developed rather than a talent one is born with.

My mentor has always been my mother. At a relatively humble budget she would always know how to get the best licks in town, and this time I was referring to clothes.

So let’s get our organizers ready and scribble down the dates for these delicious sales.

Agenda March 28 April 3

Be warned – with these websites patience is virtue. It can take anything from five days to a few months to receive the valued designer grab, but it will be totally worth it, we’re talking quality and quantity here.

Additional brands which will go on sale this Wednesday, the 30th of March, that you might want to add to your calendar: Versace, Gianfranco Ferrè, Roberto Cavalli and Costume National at secretsales.com.
