Christian Louboutin London Exhibition

Yesterday I paid a visit to the Christian Louboutin exhibition at the London Design Museum, and it was as delicious as it sounds! The exhibition itself was stunning, upon entering the black room you are immediately surrounded by Louboutins, and even a carousel with shoes going around it. The exhibition uses state of the art hologram technology to bring Dita Von Teese to life, performing a gorgous burlesque number in of course a pair of shimmering Louboutins. It was a sexy, modern exhibit which blew me away and gives a far greater appreciaition for Louboutin himself and his vision of sexy footwear. Visit before it closes on the 9th of July!

Denim. Classic looks and latest twists...

Ok so here is why we all love denim, it provides a timeless and effortless look which is youthful. Conveniently its constantly evolving with new trends. You will never go wrong with a pinch of Marilyn Monroes classic movie star denim look. Here are some of the latest denim trends that have got me inspired...

I really love this turqoise green denim colour, very Lady Gaga. Urban Outfitters have by far the best selection of denim shorts in my experience, they use vintage denim and re work or as they say 'Re-new' old jeans into something new, Its a genius concept and in store they have alot of choice, rrp is around £35.

Studded denim, again its Gaga and fun. This pair is £45, Urban Outfitters. Or pop star perfect denim corset tops are also a key silhouette this season, the one below is from Topshop who have a fab selection...

TOPSHOP

Topshop high Top trainers love...

So I have a well known love for accessories, and my fetish for handbags provides me with endless reasons to buy new shoes to match. My latest love is for high top trainers, super funky heeled trainers which bring a luxury sporty feel to daytime casual. I just invested in this pair from Topshop for £75, I love layering of leather and suade with the cute zips at the side. They feel great on and look perfect with jeans, Not great for sport but ideal for posing your way thorugh this summers Olympics!

There are many high top styles in the shops right now, some have a built in wedge for extra comfort and others are traditional flats. I had a look in River Island at their selection but I didnt think they looked as high end as the Topshop pair and the quality wasnt there. Having said that they come in at £40 and River Island have lots of colour options. I was impressed by the styles from ASOS, who have a selection of trainers from designer brand Ash,

River Island £40

Ash from ASOS £189, ooooh!
