“I loved what we did last year but I will love 2011 even more. I’m delighted about this collaboration.

It was pure pleasure to do a campaign with people I like and for a product I love”.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THESE BOTTLES!

Coco Mademoiselle – The New Film

The new film for Coco Mademoiselle, starring Keira Knightley, has been released online. The film, directed by Joe Wright (who also worked with Knightley on Pride & Prejudice and Atonement), follows Knightley waking from her slumber; applying Coco Mademoiselle Parfum to her décolletage; riding around Paris on her motorcycle and seducing photographer, Alberto Ammann. This time round sees Knightley’s leading lady more seductive, sexy and independent, yet always encapsulating the beautiful elegance of a Chanel lady.

ELIZABETH TAYLOR

Mesmerising beauty, undeniable style & extraordinary glamour…

On Wednesday the world lost one of the great screen actresses of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Elizabeth Taylor, the legendary actress and style icon, died at age 79.

Receiving two Academy Awards for Best Actress; her endless championing for AIDS awareness, research and cure; her eight marriages; her love of show-stopping jewels – Elizabeth Taylor was one of the most beautiful women the world has ever seen. As well as her four children, Taylor is survived by 10 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

Fashion Young Bloods

Young, Beautiful & With Impeccable Style…

Choosing from luxury labels such as Valentino, Prada and Marchesa, to name but a few; Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld have already graced numerous best dressed lists for their impeccable red carpet style.

Elle Fanning and Hailee Steinfeld must be two of the most ‘in style’ teenagers in the world. Age appropriate and also perfectly pretty – their choices have the right amount of edge yet are always classically chic.

Hailee Steinfeld…

At just 14 years of age, Hailee Steinfeld’s red carpet style is exquisite. To the 2011 Oscars, Steinfeld wore a divine pale pink crystal embroidered tulle, tea length dress by Marchesa (pictured above).

Accessorised with Ferragamo peep-toe shoes, a silver Ferragamo clutch and a sweet pink headband; Steinfeld looked absolutely perfect. And when I discovered that she assisted in the dress design, I loved it even more! Steinfeld sketched the basis of this dress before taking it to Marchesa to create!

After the event, Steinfeld ditched her ladylike heels for a pair of Converse hi-tops. Aw, how adorable!

Elle Fanning…

Elle Fanning at 13years of age has style and elegance beyond her young years. Her beauty and innocence translates perfectly to the red carpet where she favours floaty, feminine gowns by labels such as Valentino, Rodarte and Marchesa.

Of her passion for sophisticated dressing she says, “I love fashion! I love clothes! I really like vintage clothes, so in my closet there’s a lot of ’50s stuff. I go to the stores and shop around.”
