lesley blume lets bring back cocktails and lulu frost jewels

I met the fabulous Lesley Blume last night, she was rocking black and gold vintage Oleg Cassini (I am pretending I know who that is), the crowd was cool and buzzy, assisted nicely by the free-flowing Hendricks Gin for her cocktail book launch, "Let's Bring Back" at Hotel Americano (check the names... Angel's Tit was a hit...) this pretty much sums up the evening:

Lesley also teamed up with Lulu Frost designer Lisa Salzer to launch this limited collection Let's Bring Back by Lulu Frost for Moda Operandi, available for pre-order until the end of today! They officialy launch in early 2013, so treat yourself, the start of the year always needs a bit of sparkle in the post. 

savannah miller launches new label

I love it. Simple, but great styles for everyday, plus the odd sparkle, from the brand new label by Savannah Miller. Good price points too...dresses around 80, blazer 104, coat 176 GBP...available on Nelly.com from October 24th. Love the dresses, waistcoat and blazer.

november nights...

This post might be a little lacking in effort due to a fun Tory Burch event last night where Piers (awesome photographer) met Hil from Lyst and Laura from Elle... sorry for the fuzzy photos!

Happenings in Hong Kong which you can't miss this November...

hong kong shopping: eyes and lips

Hong Kong was all about eyes and lips last night. The latest in a long line of pop-up stores opened, Woaw which is selling seriously cool eyewear brands. New sunglasses for summer are a must, so pop over there and check them out on Patterson Street, Fashion Walk, Causeway Bay. Lips were courtesy of  the gorgeous Lulu Guinness who was in town to talk about her quirky English style handbags. The lime or pink lips provide the perfect pop of colour to any outfit. I can't wait for Lulu to be sold here, watch this space and if you can't wait then you can buy online here...

tory town

Tory Burch hosted an awesome party on Friday night to celebrate her launch in China (she has stores in Beijing, IFC HK and Harbour City now) and show her Fall 2011 collection. DJ Cassidy kept everyone happy whilst guests ooogled other guests, and girls scrambled to get a pic with the little lady. The Four Seasons ballroom had a pink and orange glow, the champagne flowed and the 70s influence was as strong as ever in the 39 looks...wide palazzo pants in geometric prints, oranges, camels, velvet suits, tweeds, fur collars, silky blouses, more burnt oranges and browns. Yep this is how we will be dressing in five months time. Please excuse the fuzzy pics, I was enjoying myself too much at the bar. Must be a better blogger next time x

LOVE the shades

Tory (who is the sweetest person ever and has gorgeous feather earrings) with the Husband, he fancied her so didn't mind being dragged to a fashion event...except when he nearly got attacked by cougars...

I'll post some more pics of my faves from the collections very soon

h&m autumn winter 2011 preview

Hello readers. I'm majorly struggling today after a boozy Tory Burch party last night, so please forgive my ramblings. I popped along to the H&M Autumn/Winter preview on Thursday. Loved what they had in store for next season. Lots of 60s and 70s vibes, orange, volume, low backs, tweeds, browns, more orange, camels, greens and print...so much gorgeous print. I have a million pics but have tried to edit it down to show you some of the collections below...in stores from July-October. Now off to drown in another cup of tea, then I might brave a lager and lime oooooooooooo.
