never ever enough shoes


Girls you can never ever have enough shoes. Why? Because whilst your boobs may shrink into peanuts or bloom into pillows and your bottom may expand beyond recognition, your shoes will always fit. I discovered beaubeepboutique (try saying that after a large gin), it is the perfect place to get creative and design your own shoes for the season, they can copy from old shoes or photos, they deliver in HK and worldwide and they do shoe parties too...oooooooooooo exciting. They take 4-6 weeks to perfect and cost around HK$750-HK$1000. Meet the beaubeep behind the boutique at the AWA Charity Bazaar tomorrow at the Excelsior Hotel in Causeway Bay, 10am to 6pm.

friday500 sexy suedey shoes

Friday500 brings you sexy suedey shoes. I took my darling UK fashionista friend on a shopping extravaganza last weekend, 8 hours straight with only a short break for malteasers, and on this journey we went to Vickie’s. I have bought oodles of shoes from Vickie’s and they are fab, you can design your own in any colour and fabric, UK fashionista went crazy. The blue pair liven up any boring black outfit (HK$349) and the mushroom/camel pair (HK$499) have a little bit of peep for showing off your toe. Perfect for romping about…in the wanch…

pert in pooooket

I know its getting chilly and you are excited about wearing your new booties, but don’t even try to pretend you don’t have a little winter break planned to Pooooket. I promised you on twitter that there is a superbly stylish new swimwear brand in HK. Designed and made by a lovely girl called Bridie, who is a very competitive Trivial Pursuits player. Kiribati is already stocked in Heidi Klein and if you don’t know how cool that is you shouldn’t even be reading this blog. Joke. I have seen the beauties in the flesh, so to speak, and they are made in gorgeous Italian fabrics which don’t shrink, go manky or sag. Perfect for making your pert baps & behinds perter. To purchase check out her site or email sales@kiribati-london.com, they cost around HKD$1710 - HKD$2215 and can be delivered around the world.

friday500

Forget the FTSE100 sweeties we are launching the Friday500. I am going to start featuring a naughty little end of week treat which won’t break the bank and will glam up your wardrobe in an instant. Aren’t I nice? The F500 this week is the gorgeous Kylie Python Clutch (as modelled by Miss Gold with the slightly dodge purple pink nails) from Club Monaco, for just HK$450 (reduced from HK$1490!!!), which leaves you 50 dollars to spend on ooohhhhh a coffee to wake yourself up before you go out. Thank me later x

sweet spot

Every city has a sweet spot, a cute little street where you can potter about looking in windows, sipping coffee and dreaming you can afford all the divine things in the shops. London's sweetest street is Marylebone High Street, Sydney has William Street (just off the Oxford Street end) and NYC's is still for me to discover, but I do love to get lost in ABC. I found HK's sweet spot tucked away off Hollywood Road. Sai Street has some of the cutest houses (check out the very stylish dark purple one), birds tweeting everywhere, a strange naked man who lives on a balcony, a fabulous vintage store which I can't remember the name of (on the right hand side, sells great vintage dresses, hats and bags) and of course the stunning Sin Sin Atelier. Sin Sin is as glam as her gallery. Her clothing designs are very cool and edgy, and her statement jewellery - clear bracelets with chunks of silver and gold on them, unusual necklaces, funky eye wear - rocks. Sweet.

c is for cashmere

I know it's hot but a stylish girl looks ahead, plans with precision, buys early, and then emerges elegantly in 3 months time, replying to dozens of compliments with "oh this old thing". Well, that's the idea anyway. Cashmere sale tomorrow, you must go, amazing dresses around the HK$ 600 to 1100 mark (which is 60 to 70 percent below retail price) gorgeous soft throws which Mother, Grandmother and those grotty in-laws will love.
