I Love Manolo Blahnik shoes. As a personal shopper I walk too far too often to wear 4.5″ heels. They are elegant, beautiful and very stylish and I can wear them without my feet hurting. Why wear othopedic boots if you dont need to?
Maybe it is because the shop is within walking distance so I window shop a lot. But judging by the queues outside this week I am not alone.
I am in love……….
These are so dramatic and stylish how to make a little black dress rock………
I was shopping in Harrods yesterday with a client and then looked for shoes for Niloufer and Ilke who are both getting married. I saw so many women staggering around in too high ugly shoes not a good look ladies.
I used to love Christian Louboutin shoes I discovered the shop in Paris many years ago before he became famous over here. But I now think his shoes are outrageously high and far too expensive many yesterday were £1000 pair. Mad. Now I love Manolos try some your feet will love you for it.

From the moment we checked in, airport swish but fast and super friendly we knew we were in for a luxurious time at Urban Retreat @ Harrods this is the fantastic Roja Dove Perfumary. I know Roja Dove from when he was Head Make-Up at Guerlain. He made me look so beautiful so I am already a big fan.
Personal StylistsGabrielle Teare and Caroline Chantler both also writers at fashiontv and Urban Magazine. Sarah LaHausseDeLaLouviere looked amazing as she showed off neon orange nails. I went for gorgeous navy blue with a slight sparkle. I love my nails I can’t stop looking at them!
The stylish salon has just launched Artistic Colour Gloss. This is nail varnish with a difference it lasts THREE times longer than ordinary polish. Created by top Hollywood ‘Man’-icurist Tom Bachik, who has tended the fingertips of A-listers including Victoria Beckham, J-Lo, Cameron Diaz and Beyoncé.
Next we had our hair done by Josh here is Caroline looking fabulous.
This is me after a gorgeous blow dry also by Josh.
This is Sarah LaHausseDelaLouviere looking stunning and showing orange neon nails. Just fab!!
This is Sebastian Brown who then did my make-up. I was amazed as gorgeous Marilyn Monroe wide white and brown eyes appeared. It was the best make-up I have ever had I would thoroughly recommend him.
All in all it was a wonderful evening Urban Retreat is uber luxurious and the pampering is wonderful. Go, just relax and enjoy………………

Slendertone Face
I first tried Slendertone Face at the CEW(UK) Beauty Awards. I had previously tried Eva Fraser Facial Exercises and instantly liked this. Frankly this is a Miracle Product. I bought mine from Harrods and could not wait to try. I have used for 4 months now it is amazing!! I look younger, my jaw is firmer, my cheekbones are higher and my eyelids are less wrinkled. The lines between my nose and mouth have almost gone. The definitive test is other people noticing and at least 15 different people have told me I look younger. “What have you done to your face?” Now you know….!! It is much cheaper than a face lift. I do Lotte Berk exercises for my body and this is Lotte Berk for your face.
