The New Chic-Bohemian dress,
I think this is the perfect look for a Friday; comfortable while professional for work and can easily take you to evening drinks or dinner...
Although, I do not usually like to photograph big prints, the colours are so well done! It would be so easy to match anything you have with this dress and with a change of jacket and shoes, you would have a completely new look... I wonder who made it?
This pic was taken outside Luxe, which I remember from reading Jill that it's good for fish-finger sandwiches for kids... I know where Tucs is going for lunch next Friday...

Every one seemed to be out enjoying one of London's rare sunny days this past Friday. Above Susie Lau out with a team doing something for terrestrial tv...
Aachen: German history at its best.
Dear readers,
not much about fashion this week: Too much work and bad weather conditions in Düsseldorf are to blame. Or only me in the end? Who knows.
So this weekend, we decided to pay a visit to my wife's relatives in Belgium.
Before that we spent some hours in Aachen. Amazing city, with loads of German history, especially Karl der Große or Charlemagne (742 – 814).
Charlemagne's real bones in this relic.

Visit to Selfridges...
Pandora Sykes, InStyle
I have always loved Selfridges... As an infant, up until till the age of six, I had my hair cut at Selfridges... Back then the top floor was all children's, hair toys and a little tea shop for treats or to celebrate your birthday party...
Still now I enjoy a rush of excitment when I enter the store but unlike when I was a kid I now avoid the circular doors, especially as I'm currently walking with a cane... Consequently, I was delighted when this woman greeted and helped me find my floor... It could have been how I imagine it would be done in Tokyo or perhaps on a much more intimate scale at Daslu são Paulo... I did not catch the woman's name, just lazy on my part but I hope one day Mary Portas will recruit her to do something for her org, perhaps something in training...
NEW ADDITION
Shoes: Alexander Wang boots
Welcome this new addition to the rest of my babies thanks to SaksFifthAvenue. I am yet to wear it; but I have test driven it around the house. I love the color and edgy style.
Anyway, I have a wedding to attend and I am still on my bed browsing :)
Later...
Have a lovely weekend loves!

Elvis Presley's white body suit inlaid with a heap of glittering sequins and matched the wide belt, which is elected the most unforgettable dressing in history in the early year's poll investigation. Indeed, Eminem was wearing the typical clothing of Elvis Presley's in one scene of his single MV "WithoutMe". Britney once wore the same clothing of Elvis Presley when she was taking paragraph of the posters.
The British large chain department store Woolworths recently make a poll among 14000 people, ask them to select the greatest and the most memorable clothing in their heart Finally the Elvis Presley's classic white body suit won against Kylie Minouge by a little superiority.
The bells is the American fashion trend in 20 centuries from 1960s to 1970s, Elvis Presley pushed the bells to the top of the fashion clothing. Then it was popular in Hong Kong and Taiwan regions , and also directly affected Chinese mainland during the early years of Reform and Open period. At that time, in Hong Kong and Taiwan's movies the stars were all wearing the bells leading the fashion trend.
In 1960, Elvis Presley was wearing this suit participating a press conference in father's office. After he died, the valuation of the suit have risen up to 5000 to 7000 US dollars.
The blue open corsage revealed Elvis Presley's unruly personality, and the tight belt looks also very fashionable in nowadays.
The aureate small silk suit is luxury and avant-garde, which can be worn only by Elvis Presley.
At that time Elvis Presley have already liked the contrast color, the pink grid clothes look handsome and stylish.
Elvis Presley's luxury dressing was performed on the stage, but when he was behind the scene, his dressing was not exaggerated at all, but also have delicate place. This is "Elvis Presley", a immortal legend.

The luxury goods B2C industry is booming and also facing the channel bottleneck
According to the news of June 30, the China Venture has made a news report, and all kinds of data prove the fact that luxury consumption potential in China is emerging. The relatively limited consumption ability of Chinese middle class provid the opportunity for e-commerce mode. And the investment of luxury B2C industry will become the new hot point. But sales network could damage the interests of agents and distributors, and the simple shopping mode could influence the luxury orientation and the mystery feelings.
Not long ago, the world's largest luggage manufacturer Samsonite and Italy luxury brand Prada successively accomplished IPO in Hong Kong, each financed 9.73 billion and 16.719 billion HKD. The two companies choose to enter the market in HongKong. They are both because of their increasing business in Asia's emerging market, especially Chinese fast growing market. The story of "Chinese growing consumption market", and reality of becoming the second biggest luxury goods consumption country, makes the Chinese luxury consumption market prosperous.
In this background, the domestic luxury consumption and relevant industries, both have more imaginable space. Especially the 2010 Chinese e-commerce industry's booming development, makes the combination of luxury consumption and online shopping more practical. In 2011, as the investment of comprehensive B2C and group purchase industry have been saturated, the investment of luxury B2C industry tends to become the new hot spots.
The desirable consumption of the middle class is rising up and on line shopping caters the Chinese characteristic consumption
All kinds of data prove that the luxury consumption in China has a bright prospect. On June 9th the latest report of the world's luxury goods association said last year the total sum of luxury consumption market in domestic China has reached 10.7 billion US dollars, accounting for a quarter of the global share, which is expected to be the world's biggest luxury consumption country surpasses Japan next year. More than 8% of the GDP growing rate in China for several years and the residents increasing consumption expenditure year by year would undoubtedly construct the solid foundation of the growing domestic luxury consumption market. The subcompany database CVSource of ChinaVenture mastered a macroscopic economic data, it showed that in recent years, the domestic urban residents' consumption support is continuous growing, the average growing rate is over 10%, which has surpassed the average GDP growing rate, showing a strong national consumption power.
Among them, the rapid rising amount and the huge number of middle class has become the mainstream of the luxury consumption group. They need a car, luxury clothing, cosmetics, and watches and high-end products to reveal their leading position in wealth, taste and other personalized aspects. The Chinese luxury consumption is therefore to move into a fast growing stage. However, compared with the traditional retail stores, the Chinese middle class has relatively limited consumption power, so the on line shopping provides the opportunity for this new luxury shopping mode.
Generally speaking, in China people whose monthly income is between 20000 yuan to 50000 yuan are belong to a typical luxury consumers. In the future's years, the amount of these people will rise from the current millions to 250 million. However this group of people in China at present only belong to not very rich people. These rich people pursue the top luxury consumption, but they will be sensitive of the price, that is a typical phenomenon. In earlier time, people would solve this problem by shopping abroad or buy on somebody's behalf, this consumption account for more than half of consumption scale. And with the mature of Chinese e-commerce industry and the formation of network consumption habits, the on line shopping of luxury goods are accepted by more and more consumers because of its price advantage and convenient shopping. And it also has become an important part of Chinese luxury consumption.
