it's a small world after all

A while ago I was featured in Little Thing Magazine a quirky fashion magazine from China and I've finally got my sticky little paws on a couple of copies. I am so pleased with how my article came out and I'm even more pleased because they have just asked me to do another feature, hooray!

I was featured in the 'little stylist' spot featuring some of my faves from the aut/win season
here's a closer look at some of the outfits on this page...

Sonia Rykiel

Tory Burch

Dolce and Gabbanna

Moschino cheap and chic

...and another double page with a little interview and more lovely things...

Marc by Marc Jacobs

Valentino

Marchessa

Marni

Chloe

Balmain

and here's a feel of the rest of the magazine...

love this Tim Walker inspired shot and was happy to discover designer Jamie Hayon. His website is very cool, there is so much to look at, check it out here...

I have fallen in love with this Iris Van Herpen dress and aren't these illustrations for natural remedies cute?

I'll post an copy of the interview in english very soon for you to have a nosy at

dreaming of haute couture

"it's our job to make people dream"
John Galliano


...and I'm certainly dreaming. Daddy can afford the odd spot of couture for me but not the whole collection! I want to be transformed my fair lady style and taken to the races. That reminds me I wonder if Ruby has remembered to include this classic on her fave movies list? I must remind her.

see the whole Christian Dior couture collection here

introducing...


Hi everyone, how are you all doing? I'm really really happy to introduce you to my closest friend, Ruby, Ruby Gatta (which I don't need to tell you clever lot is cat in Italian) yes a rabbit and a cat being best friends is pretty unusual but I am pretty unusual so you shouldn't be surprised really!

We grew up together and have been the best of friends since I can remember. Our mums and grandmothers were best friends before us so really we're just carrying on a good old family tradition. Ruby is descended from very old Italian roots so along with being able to make the best pasta sauce you've ever tasted she also has the stylish gene - just like me! Unlike me she's not such a label hoar and is definitely less of a show off! That's why it's taken me so long to drag her on here and there's no going back now. She's hooked on my site and has now started her own all about design, art, interiors and other lovely things...


by the way, did you notice? Ruby and I have got our paws on some spring summer Chloe... I am so excited, even though it's still only January I feel as if spring is just around the corner just waiting for us to come and play!

An historic day...

...and I was there!
Here's my 'Where's Wally' moment!

Brrrr it was chilly, atmosphere was great though obviously and Barack is so cute!

I had a few options for the inauguration ball. On Monday I had finally decided on Marchessa spring summer 09. Not a difficult choice, I mean just check these beauties out...

I decided this one was just too short

and even though I like the black and white theme on this one it was a little too flouncy for me


In the end I plumped for this gold embroidered white gown. It seems I was having the same white moment as Michelle Obama, didn't she look stunning?


Stella was obviously feeling a little shy for the photo. look she's sitting on my dress!
Her red, white and blue collar looks pretty smart. I had it specially made for the occasion.

the world is a more hopeful place this morning!

i need a hug

i need a hug!

Ho hum, A new year means a new start right? wrong! everything seems to be going haywire with me, perhaps I broke a mirror on new years day or something because I am having the worst luck! I am having a more than a few technical issues behind the scenes of the shop which means I won't be able to send out any orders until the beginning of February. The shop still works fine if you don't mind waiting but huge apologies to anyone who needs a Fifi fix right now!

I also have no internet connection which doesn't help, it seems not even society rabbits can get their internet fixed on demand... and that means less postings.... eeek!

anyway enough of my moaning lets console ourselves with some nice things

desperately sweet chopstick holders

mushroom fun

lets all make love (pillows)

if you haven't you really should watch

a pretty top and a quirky watch

and I'll leave you with some gorgeous photography from the very talented Anna Wolf

MORE LUELLA SWEETIE


Wow, The wind is biting today, lucky I've got my Luella ensemble to keep my chops toasty warm. These gorgeous shoes aren't too practical though, I nearly took a tumble as I ran for the bus today, whoops!


A couple of nice things happened today, firstly I received two issues of little thing magazine all the way from China (thanks Timmy). I've been featured right in the centre spread with a little interview and lots of pics, I'll scan it in soon so you can all see.

And secondly a little collab with Little Fashion Gallery came out. A gorgeous online store selling designer togs for sprogs - I needed that when I was little! I'm in their latest fashion book you can take a closer look here... (I'm a few pages in)


keep smiling!

HELLO STRANGER


Hello all, long time no see! well I hope you all had a truly scrumptious Christmas and New Year, mine was rather fun and festive we had all the family at my parents house in the country (I discovered cousins I didn't know existed!) we had a huge roast carrot from Mr Magregors organic orchard inc. Dad bought it at the Christmas fete after it won the largest vegetable growing competition and it was as tasty as it was massive! we had the usual family arguments, mum embarrassed me in front of Sonny by showing him the whole family album complete with nuddy pics of me as a kid (cue lots of rolling eyes) and Granny got drunk and embarrassed us in front of the neighbours who had popped in for an eggnog. pretty normal all in all.

For New Year I went ski-ing with my family and my best friend Ruby's family. Our families have been friends for generations so it was great fun, I'll see if I can get some pics for you to see soon... though they will definitely be filtered, there are far to many of me on my bum - legs in the air!


I'm really getting excited about the new Spring Summer collections and some has even started to seep into my wardrobe thanks to all the ordering I did at the shows last season but it's just too cold as yet to start wearing any so I've been consoling myself with a whole load of autumn winter Luella. I've decided to kick start my blogging with a week of Luella and if you'd like to join in here's a few sale items that might tempt you! ...my darling dress is even there!

Grrrr

Hey everyone,
so my computer is driving me crazy - well more specifically it's my internet connection. Grrr. the problem is there is none. simple as that and so I have to sit in the internet shop facing the high chance I will get a cold from all the sneezers I seem to be sitting with. wish me luck. I hate the sniffles. anyway that means that I can't show you as many of my new outfits as I would like because I simply don't have the means. and that makes me sad =:'x(

so I apologise for the lack of posts in the coming days, I'll still be checking on my shop orders every day and getting them out to he post office asap so no worries there...

I'll leave you with todays outfit
(if you could see me you wouldn't see it because sadly it's hidden under a giant coat... and you wouldn't see Stella either because she's sitting on my lap shivering it's so cold in here)
