Mamas & Papas have brought out a line of jewellery to go with their maternity range and personally i would not wear it (if i ever get pregnant) as i don’t see why you have to get dowdy stuff when every female has a large jewellery collection already.

I have been looking at the spring / summer collection and the majority of it is beeds, where does it state that you have to wear beads when you are pregnant.
Get your charm bracelets, chandalier earrings, layered necklaces out to accessorise your outfit, why change just because you are having a baby??

I have probably found the most exclusive smelling and most expensive perfume on the planet.

imperial-majestyImperial Majesty Perfume have only made 10 bottles of this fragrance and are only selling 5 bottles at a cost of $215,000 US Dollars (approx £156,256 UK Sterling) but for that price you don’t just get a perfume you get a Baccarat Crystal bottle that has five-carat white diamonds on it and has a 18 carat-gold collar on.

I dont think i will be rushing out to get one but i really dont see the point of buying this as there is nothing wrong with the normal DKNY, Gucci etc perfumes you can by from your local shops….

A big item to be worn this spring is going to be the bright toywatch. I wrote about this last year and it is set to make a come back, i am definately going to buy one this time as i love the bright colours they come in, now all i have to decide is which colour…
Browns are selling them in all different colours (eg, yellow, red, yellow with black face, white, blue etc) at a cost of £125 upwards…
There are lots of different styles to go for as well so why not log on to www.brownsfashion.com and have a look for yourself…

The real life Barbie doll has once again over done it and bought herself a real Barbie accessorie, a Pink Bentley GT Continental.  I know this is not Jewellery but it is bling in my eyes…
Of course Paris is the type of person who buys herself a gift for Christmas but I am surprised Jordan has not been a contender in this.  The car cost a whopping $200,000 (around £130,000) and she has been noted saying “I’ve just always wanted a pink car”.  she says. “I think when you’re a little girl and you have the Barbie corvette you’re always like: ‘Oh I wish I had a car like this one day.’ So I think it just comes from being a fan of Barbie for so long. This is a car that I cannot drive every single day but I will be driving a lot.”
At least the police will see her coming this time.

The largest robbery on a jewellery store in Paris, Harry Winston, was taken place around 5.30pm on Thursday 04th December by a group of four men who disguised themselves as women wearing wigs, makeup and dresses.

Police put the estimated total value of the haul at €80m (£70m), making it by far the largest jewel robbery carried out in France. “This is certainly a record,” said Doron Levy, a spokesman for the French union of jewellers. “It exceeds anything we’ve seen here going back years.”

The robbers carried out a quick tour of the boutique, stuffing diamond rings, necklaces, broaches and luxury watches into bags before taking off. Appearing to have knowledge of the layout of the store, they knew the location of supposedly top-secret storage boxes and referred to staff by their first names. Within minutes, the shop was nearly empty, and the robbers had sped off.

This has been dubbed by the French Police as the “steel of the century”

This store are specialists in so-called “ultra-luxe” jewellery, and the American store is a hot spot for international celebrities and, has a reputation for precious stones.

A lot of people are struggling buying presents for their loved ones this Christmas period and are resorting to getting Bad Credit Loans to ensure they can afford this but a lot of the jewellers have now lowered their prices because of the change of tax to 15% and also if you log onto the websites and a few of them have a discount voucher you can print off and use or have sales in their shops.

Goldsmiths even do a 0% interest free credit where you get up to 36 months interest free credit. Now that sounds like a deal and they actually have some half decent jewellery on their site.

I am trying to hint to my boyfriend to buy me some expensive jewellery but he is moaning about the cost but now I know about the special offers the shops have on at the moment I will give it another go and leave the vouchers around the house and he may take the hint, but you never know he is a man.

Personally I will be waiting until boxing-day to hit the shops when the sales start because they are meant to be absolutely awesome but I hate the mayhem.

Office have brought out their high platform shoes with a bit of bling on them. Me and all my friends have these in different colours (black, grey, leopard print, tartan, pink, cream etc) but now some of them are going out buying the new style as there is a sale on everywhere at the moment to go with their frocks for the Christmas period.

I love the cream ones with the silver glitter heel and the clear diamante on the front.

“Details

The Real High Platform is exactly that, with a whopping 5 inch stiletto heel and 1 inch of platform you will definitely stand out in a crowd. Purple suede upper, leather lining & synthetic sole.”

This season is all about the Mock Croc Bags.

Whether you want a metallic clutch to liven up an Little Black Dress, or you’re after a new day-bag in time for the Christmas shopping mayhem, there are plenty of top choices out there.

Celebrities like Eva Longoria, Katie Holmes and our very own Victoria Beckham can’t get enough of these must-haves.

All high street shops like Topshop, River Island, H & M & New Look have them and a non purse breaking price but you can also get your designer items from the likes of Harvey Nichols & Selfridges…

Chanel has brought out a Union Jack handbag which is a big must have for celebrities but 1 in particular Agyness Deyn. Agyness has been getting her money worth out of her £980 bag by wearing it everywhere with everything since the Chanel Temporary shop opening on Dover Street Market in London.

I love this bag and am glad Chanel chose to support the English flag by making a bag out of the pattern.. If only I could afford one on my wages, oh well we can’t have everything can we girls.

For more information visit the Chanel website or go to your nearest shop.

When you think of bling it does not always have to involve jewellery, I have found these cute little Ballerina shoes with a diamante on the front. They come in a few different colors and I had to get 3 out of the 4.

Believe it or not these shoes are from Wynsors and cost a mere £7.95 so they are affordable to everyone, but if you went to River Island or Topshop you would be looking at paying £15.00 plus.
