Rihanna for River Island....

Just a little postie in case you missed it, you're either not on Twitter/Instagram or you were in a coma???

The collection was unleashed onto the LFW crowd on Saturday night and will go on sale in store on the 5th March. To which I'm sure you will have to queue up overnight and wrestle a few wanna-Rih's, but hey is thats your passion, go for it, just don't get arrested...that my friends, will never be in style!

And just because this site doesnt allow anything between X-Large & original size heres a few .... to allow you to see the bigger picture...pun intended!

To me, the collection is very Rihanna, in that the items are in some senses simple enough to be worn from morning till night. They can be styled up and down with accessories and jewellery galore, one of Rihanna's style patents...add a hat, some gold chains, a bunch of rings and away she goes - and she looks damn fine too!

Enjoy

No holiday booked but why not!

A few years ago I had a girly holiday in a somewhat HOT country, and I didn't tan a single inch of my body. So I came to the conclusion that my body has decided that since I've faked it I can carry on. Turning a negative into a positive I thought YES now I can wear all those amazing shaped and detailed swimsuits/bikinis that would leave you with stupid tan lines! Thank you....

Here are a few ranging in price I like, from high street to designer....I'm off to the travel agents!



H&M Swimsuit £12.99 - black is simple and can be matched with any day bits to go from pool to niche market!!! And think of that heat on your body, black attracts!





H&M Bikini £24.99- Screams old hollywood in shape, with an almost dated palm tree graphic...this would look A-mezing on a big bottom! wink wink...
Available at - H&M





H&M String Bikini £20.98- How amazing...LOVE it beyond words!Why do you always love what wouldn't suit you...or is that just me? Big boobs and tube tops are a warning area for me...maybe I'll just try it on and hope!
Available at - H&M



River Island Black Macrame Swimsuit £30.00 - Love the detail on this but think it needds a teeny tiny waist to keep you looking womanly...probably a tryer-onner in all truth!
Available at - River Island




River Island Bronze Fringe Swimsuit £27.00 - They used to have this in a shade or orange - loved it, but seems its not available anymore...this is still a really nice colour, imagine beautifully bronzing skin next to it and orange nails are a must of course!
Available at - River Island





Topshop Wet Look Swimsuit £34.00 - I see combed back wet hair, strong eyebrows, someone with a little diva inside them...I don't think its for the mild hearted! Helloooo...look at the back - GORGEOUS! And on a little naughty level, I think your breasts (when cold) would look to die for...
Available at - Topshop





DVF Mini Spot Leopard Swimsuit Reduced to £127.00 - Think the shape of this is classic, the back is ultra low and its screams chic femininity.
Available at - My Wardobe





Miu Miu Plunge Front Swimsuit £130.00 - I love this, simple, elegant...This era's bond girl!!!
Available at - Net-a-Porter





Matthew Williamson Leopard-print Swimsuit £250 - I think I like this as its pretty unusual and wouldn't see anyone else in it! I'd rock it in Miami!!!
Avaialble at - Net-a-Porter





Lisa Maree Feathering Peacock Crochet Swimsuit £155.00 - Doubles up as an AMAZING top, I love a bit of crotchet!
Available at - Net-a-Porter

Get buying people...swimwear can be reinvented year upon year!

Enjoy

Just call me shoebo...

I never discriminate against a shoe....orange, purple, leopard, spikey, strappy...whatever they may be, there definatley the accessory for me!!!

Below are my fave picks of some luxury brands - some available at Selfridges in Birmingham...I LOVE LOVE LOVE & wish I could afford ANY of the Louboutins...i'm not fussy whatever pair - if your feeling generous!!!)



Iv'e also found some alternatives at a much more affordable price all below £150 (which in my case is more suitable & in fact a treat!!!) I have my eyes on the spikey leopards from Kandee (online), the colour block coral pair from Topshop (available in town) & the ankle strap pair from River Island! ooohhh slut shoes,haha...



Sounds a bit obvious but shop in Birmingham!!! Rather than surf the net - physically go there....new shops won't open unless we are there spending...besides why wait a few days to try on something gorgeous to realise you need the next size up when The Bullring & Selfridges is open 8pm Mon-Sat & 5pm on Sundays - perfect for a little after work treat!

Over & out (i'm off to town!)
