A few days ago I tweeted how excited I was to find that a favourite shoe designer of mine, Walter Steiger, is now on sale at fabulous online shopping haven, Luisaviaroma.com.

For the first time in this eminent family brand’s history, three designs from Walter Steiger’s stunning SS11 collection are available to purchase with a few clicks!

The designs available are easily covetable; my favourite are these Patent Open Toe Specchio Heel Pumps in an alluring nude tone! They are the perfect heels suited to a multitude of outfits in a staple wardrobe, yet distinctive enough to demand attention! More eye catching designs include a silk satin leopard print open toe pump with a statement architectural arched heel, and finally silk satin leopard print cage boots, which look exactly how they sound - unbelievably spectacular!

I have admired Walter Steiger’s exquisitely structured shoes for as long as I can remember and will look forward to welcoming additional designs on this tempting shopping website. However, for now you will find me devouring the other beautiful shoes on the Walter Steiger webpage.

LCF invited me to attend a significant event combining ballet with fashion design, at the stunning V&A Raphael Gallery.

The Ballet Russes Design Perspectives celebrates the dynamic impact of the Ballet Russes. In an exciting collaboration between London College of Fashion with the English National Ballet, over the last year students from LCF designed collections inspired by the Ballet Russes. Students were required to form their ideas by examining contemporary and historical fashion and engaging directly with the Ballet Russes.

To showcase the results of a highly successful collaboration, 25 students were asked to take their designs including garments and accessories into production. The finished designs were displayed during this one night only performance and exhibition, entitled “Diaghilev and the Golden Age of the Ballet Russes, 1909 – 1929.

Running alongside the exhibition I had the opportunity to watch a short film documenting the project, allowing a chance to take a glimpse backstage behind the scenes of the collaboration.

On this occasion I also had the great pleasure of watching a live performance by six ENB dancers wearing the student collections and choreographed by ENB Artist Stina Quagebeur.

Rob Phillips, Creative Director of the School of Fashion Design and Technology, who supervised the project said: “This rare opportunity bringing together three of the UK’s most important cultural organisations has been a fantastic experience for our students”.

It was a great event with a wonderfully creative atmosphere.

Coco Chanel and Pearls are entwined in an illustrative harmony. An essential element of her style, Chanel loved pearls for their simplicity, refined charm and notably for their power to illuminate the face.

Peter Philips, Global Creative Director of Chanel Makeup, utilizes the iridescence and reflective qualities of pearls to design a fresh and radiant SS11 collection.

The sheer beauty of this collection is enchanting. From dazzling white, black, or glimmering bronze, to pretty shades of pink and grey, the makeup reveals a wide range of delicate, wavering and intangible shades that represent the paradoxical gift of playing with light.

The Important Details
The 3 Le Vernis nail polishes are £17
Rouge Allure Lipstick £23
Rouge Coco £22
Levres Scintillantes lipglosses £19.50
Joues Contraste Blush in Espiegle £30
Ombrés Perlées de Chanel £39

I absolutely adore this collection, be sure to underline 28th January in your diary and head to a beauty department near you. Beauty addicts be early as otherwise expect queues!
