To Clog or not to clog?

Hello ladies. The runways have been treaded with this Danish delight in preperation for Spring / Summer 2010 and I have gathered a collection of photos to show you the best action from our new friend, 'the clog'.

The infamous Coco (Chanel in case you were wondering) has an assortment of lovely clogs in their accessories line up for this summer:

These clogs are one of the most beautiful I have seen out there, and If I was going to give this trend a try on, I would love todo it in these beautes. Clearly, I wasn't the only one thinking this. See Alexa Chung clobbering around above.
Rachel Bilson here in a more classic version of our friend, The Clog, and Mary Kate Olsen rocking a wedged clog (with her infamous coffee in toe).
With so many clogs out there, there really is a style for everyone. Clearly, they have removed themselves from their Danish grandfather clog and are taking up wardrobes all over the world. Beware the clog!

But don't worry if Chanel is out of your price range, you have more options than last years holiday souvenier to choose from! Check out the following clogs just waiting to be picked up off our high streets:

from top left: Topshop (£70), River Island (£69.99), NW3 by Hobbs (£119), Zara (£69.99), The Laden Showroom (£80).
And these cuties from ASOS:

                                            
Sanita Heeled clog £30
Promise Leather studded clog £85




Henry Clog Sandal £25

So. Will you be clogging it out this summer?

Coveted Item of the Week!

Hi girls! This is my current coveted item of the week. With summer fast approaching and having already turned to the St Tropez I've been taking a sneaky peek at the swimwear available out there. I came across this unusually designed swimsuit and think its really pretty and also practical. Its from the brand Maaji, costs £80 (which is basically out of my price range right now!) and is available at ASOS. I love the floral prints it has, but also love that it isn't floral overkill! Perfect range of colours and definately a summery delight. If you look carefully you will also see hearts in the grey design, which of course I am a sucker for!


The back of this swimsuit is also one of the features I really love about it:


I think the pink bow tie is soo cute and girly.

Let me know whether you like it, and what your current coveted item of the week is below.
    I'll be doing a regular weekly update so watch out for those! Thanks so much for reading! xxox

hey girls! How are you all today? I got this gorgeous little No7 gift set in the post this morning from my lovely mum, which has definately cheered me up amidst exam stress! I just want to share it with you as I think its really adorable (I absolutely love miniatures).
So it comes in this little pink and purple roll bag which would be perfect for travelling, although I'm not that keen on the design:



And this is what's inside:

Eyeshadow in 40 Khaki
High Shine Spf 15 lipgloss in Smile
Extreme Length Mascara in Black
Protect & Perfect eye cream
Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum

I think this was part of the promotion thats still running at the moment. If you spend £22 on No7 products you will receive a gift very similar to this. xx
