Hi guys,
I hope you had mad fun this Christmas. Here are some very trendy stuff I have for you. I have so much to share with you, but have decided to show mainly the affordable ones as i don't want to drive you away with hefty price tags. Okay i'll fess up...i'm also running away from them...lol. I am purchasing most of the featured goods here as well so if you see me, at least you'd know how much they cost but shhhh don't tell...*huge grin*. Please scroll down to read the tags for each photo and where to purchase the goods; I have explained everything in detail and even added my own tips. I'm still trying to work out how to write directly under each photo. I succeeded in doing this is my Make Up post (below this) but posted it in error before this. Ah well, enjoy...
Pic 1: Following the huge success of her first collection, actress and trendsetter Mischa Barton has launched her second handbag range, including this Tapestry Vintage Shoulder Bag, £50. Anyone that knows me knows that i'm a huge fan of massive shoppers and i'm really loving this one. There are 34 styles to choose from – oversized slouch bags, vintage-inspired drawstring bags, totes and purses – with fabrics varying from metallic snakeskin and statement tapestries to patent and pearlised leather. Starting at £20, the prices are reasonable, too. You can get some at http://www.asos.com/ and they are priced from £20-£200.
Pic 2: Eva Longoria is also a fan of this Elliott Lucca Calypso Clutch. $158. Available at http://www.elliottlucca.com/I hope you had mad fun this Christmas.

Pic 3: This Leyla Day Bag, $449, by True Religion, is spot on trendy and is an investment you won't regret i promise you. I'm a bunny boiling fan of True Religion, especially their jeans. Forget dvb skinny jeans...True Religion rawks!!! Okay Rock and Republic as well...and Robin...oh men i'm mad...i'm just a useless name dropper!!! Aight no more digressing. This bag is available at http://www.truereligionbrandjeans.co.uk/
Pic 4: Mischa Barton Oversized Shopper, £63.62. http://www.asos.com/
Pic 5: I'm also loving Paul's Boutique bags this season. They are really cool and affordable. This Badge Twista costs £58.73. They also have it in black, but nahhhh the gold one does it for me. Get it from http://www.asos.com/
Pic 6: Paul's Boutique New Season Quilted Bell Bag, £48.94, also at http://www.asos.com/
Pic 7: Statement necklaces are so in this season and you can get this lovely piece, $90, from Tori Spelling's new jewelry range at http://www.hsn.com/
Pic 8: Get this chic of a piece, $92, from http://www.yukester.com/
Pic 9: Famed Yves Saint Laurent muse, Loulou de la Falaise, knows a thing or two about gems. This piece is just muahhhh!!! A l'il pricey though at $150, but hey it's YSL...lol!!!
Pic 10: Victoria Beckham was pictured wearing a similar looking watch which probably cost more than any of us earn in a year! This Sekonda Gold-Plaited Men's Bracelet Watch is uber cool and would suit most budgets at only £74.99 from Sekonda (08708508200) and H. Samuel. For ladies like Overwhelmed Naija Babe (ONB) that love oversized men's watches, this is for you.
Pic 11: This dress swings from day to night in a cinch! Just grab your stilettos, statement necklace and a pashmina and you're off for a night on the town. $28 at http://www.forever21.com/
Pic 12: Emphasize your waist with this empire waist dress. By accentuating your waist, you will give the illusion that you're super slim and draw attention to your best assets. Accessorize also with a strand of pearls to add to that classic touch. Necklace $15 at http://www.alloy.com/. Dress by Kimchi Blue; $58 at http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/
Pic 13: dvb style two tone glasses; $99. I love oversized sunglasses and always purchase one every season. This would look cool when worn with casual wear like jeans or gypsy dresses.
Pic 14: Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana certainly know how to pack 'em in. Yeah i know...i'm showing off...coulda just said D&G huh? lol! Big Love's Ginnifer Goodwin scores in sheer chiffon, silk and pearls.
Pic 15: When it comes to bangles, less is never more. Here, Ashanti's arm was even on-theme at Nelly's Black & White Ball in St. Louis on 30/11/2008.
Pic 16: Leona Lewis rocks the house and blinds the crowd with her arm candy (bangles) at the Bambi Awards in Offenburg, Germany on 27/11/2008.
Pic 17: This Cle de Peau Lipstick in Fresh Sangria Red would suit you more if you are light complexioned, as it's oh soooo red red wine, so pucker up. $55 at Neiman Marcus.
Pic 18: I'm slighty peeved now cos i purchased this Lovely Winter Sparkle (100ml) by SJP last week at Debenhams for £33 and the Fragrance Shimmer Stick for £13; the perfume has now been reduced to £16.50! Always my luck...mchewwwwww!!! If you already have the normal Lovely perfume though, i'd advice you to only buy the Fragrance Shimmer Stick, as the only difference between both perfumes is that one has shimmers in it; it smells exactly the same besides that. Moreover, shimmer is best worn at night anyway, so you can wear your normal Lovely perfume and then use the shimmer stick on your neck and arms.
I'm out y'all. I'm really knackered now and can't stop yawning. I hope you enjoyed this post. Be back soon.
Stay cool. xxx
