The Resort Advent Calendar No.1


on the first day of Christmas...I wore Celine!

Today I am wearing Celine from the resort collections and I'm very excited because today is the first day of my resort advent calendar. Check back every day to see what I'm wearing and countdown to my very special Christmas Day outfit!

I did have a bit of a dilemma deciding which gorgeous Celine creation to choose. the Black jumpsuit was almost a winner but the peach dinner jacket won me over. Just so chic and perfect for my day as I am off out to meet my friend Ruby for a meeting about a little soiree we are planning.



hope you have a fabulous first day of Christmas
see you tomorrow

Have a Coach Holiday

Happy Holidays everyone!
Thanks for all your supportive comments, I am feeling much more cheerful today.
Thanksgiving is upon us and even if you're not from the USA you can still celebrate with me by entering my very special competition held in collaboration with Coach and their hoilday blogaday project...

I'm modeling some gorgeous pieces from their fall collection.
The bow beret is all cuteness and I just love my shoes - so rockabilly!
...and that bag, honestly it's gorgeous and you could own one just like mine!

Yes, that's correctorama! You can win a beautiful genuine leather Brooke Bag from Coach. It's a real classic, one of those pieces that will last you forever (a bit like my 'great American Trench coat') and it's in a beautiful soft stone colour so it will go with every outfit...

Puma Urban Art 2009

Finally I can post some pictures about how was my trip this year to the great city of Buenos Aires in Argentina, still dreaming with the fantastic time that my family and I spent pretty much eating the best food ever, walking all around the city, famous places and meeting a bunch of interesting and talented people. I was invited to give a speech for the second edition of the Puma Urban Art festival during August 1st and 2nd along with the well known artist and illustrator Nate Williams, the brazilian graffitti-duo of Alto*Contraste (Lee & Lou) and some others important local artists. The festival took place in the Auditorium 2, part of the Centro Cultural Recoleta complex with an affluence of 3,000+ people offering Illustration & art lectures, live painting, skate & bike exhibitions, live music and screening shows.

Originally we planned to stay for one week only but we ended up staying long 25 days, we had the great opportunity to live the real experience of being in Buenos Aires almost like a local and we totally loved it! Hopefully one day we will go back again and maybe for much longer time :)

Luella Forever


Darlings, these last few days I have been utterly low. I am officially in mourning. After the announcement that Luella has lost her financial backing therefore putting the very existence of the label in jeopardy I could hardly get out of bed let alone face choosing what to wear. Stella has been my constant companion, resting her little head on my paw and giving me the most solemn looks it's as if she understands my pain (Or she could just be desperate for a walk?!) Sonny came round today on the request of my housekeeper and tried to rouse me with some of my favourite carrot cupcakes from The Magnolia Bakery via Harrods. But even a whiff of cream cheese frosting couldn't tempt me out.... oh woe is me!

p.s. whilst in my pit of despair I was browsing the interwebular and came across this which raised my spirits just enough to have a little nibble on said cake. It tasted so divine that I scoffed the lot, whoops!

stuck on you


Morning everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I had a lovely time with some of my less famous friends walking Stella in the country and cosying up to a roaring log fire. I turned to trusted Brit brand Aquascutum for the correct attire - though I had to give in and swop the shoes for a pair of hunters when we hit fields! heels + mud = 1 very grumpy rabbit!
I finally bought some of that pastel masking tape that's been making the rounds on all the most covetable blogs this year and have been obsessively sticking anything and everything I can get my paws on. I decorated Sonny's work Blackberry in pretty shades of aquamarine, bubble gum pink and rosy peach. I can't think why he was not impressed with my handiwork!
