Diorissimo!

Aquamarine, sapphires, diamonds, pearls, coral, and a majestic seahorse all sprinkled with sparkly colour.
This is what you have when you can have anything you want to.
Victoire Castellane designed these for your local Dior Joaillerie boutique, and now they are in my virtual treasure trove.

Silver threaded gift

There are some quality people on my links and Antikva is one of them we will meet at the FrockBlog on Sunday 18th.

She paints and draws and makes beautiful things then
recklessly gifts them to thrilled recipients.
When she stops doing this and amasses a collection, her online shop will open and you can have one too - think ahead to Mother's Day for a unique expression of your appreciation

to the Calder!

Roi Orb Is On

Copperwitch is talking about her lust for the OPIUM fragrance by YSL, so I have to weigh-in with my favourites, both spicy and similar.

Chanel's black-label COCO is a dream, and about A$120 for a 100ml classic bottle of eau de parfum.
Vivienne Westwood's Boudoir is spicy too and has such a great flask - I love that she has almost completely appropriated the orb symbol from Her Majesty.

This is
Vivienne Westwood's
Empire Purse
perfect for daywear or evening,
races or restaurant,
a right royal time will be had.
