Prada to float on the Hong Kong stock exchange
Prada’s family owned company is set to float on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. In what is set to mean big changes for the luxury brand, Prada will become a public company after 98years. Prada is also made up of labels: Miu Miu, Church’s and Car Shoe. While this is the fourth time Prada has attempted such a move; depending on how many shares Miuccia Prada and her husband Patrizio Bertelli (company chief executive) chose to sell, they could boost their personal fortunes significantly…

It Wouldn’t Be Summer Without Some Seriously Chic Sunglasses…
Spring / Summer 2011 Sunglasses are all about the drama! Striking shapes and dynamic colour will make your sunglasses scream look at my gorgeous face!
From Fendi to Prada, Stella McCartney to Christian Dior – sunglasses were the ‘IT’ item of the Spring / Summer 2011 collections. Whether they were oval, round or square shaped; or something seemingly straight from Alice In Wonderland; – sunglasses are meant to make a statement.
At Jil Sander ‘too cool for school’ aviator frames took the crisp collection to the next level. At Christian Dior and Marni it was all about 1950’s chic. Meanwhile, Prada took sunglasses design to the next level.
My absolute favourites… Fendi’s colour mixing frames (featured above & right). Love the big statement shape and coloured gradient lenses. So playful yet so chic!
Embrace statement making shades for summer xx
Happy Friday! xx
