Minaudiere: Jennifer’s Style

Good things come in small packages, but fabulous things come in a bedazzled minaudiere, right Jennifers? The Oscar ladys– Aniston, Garner and Lawrence– know that a gold and silver toned metal minaudiere bag is the perfect company for a glam night out.

Christian Dior will take over Harrods this spring 

The London department store will be transformed into a tribute to the French fashion house later this month when it debuts new displays, exhibitions and in-store activity dedicated to the label.
Windows in the Brompton Road shop will hold Dior's favoured colour palette of white and grey to create a "French Savior Fair and British charm" theme, featuring London telephone and post boxes, limited edition products and Royal Beefeaters in costumes designed by Creative Director Raf Simons.
In addition to the window displays, Harrods' fourth floor will turn into "the ultimate Dior experience" for customers. They will be able to experience the façade of the Paris Dior headquarters on 30 Avenue Montaigne, recreated for the occasion, and enjoy different displays varying from Lady Dior handbags to their iconic perfume J'Adore.
An exhibition called Stars in Dior will feature dresses worn by the female faces of the brand, including Emma Watson, Marion Cotillard and new-addition Jennifer Lawrence.
The Harrods Dior takeover will run from March 16 to April 14 2013.

Milan Fashion Week comes to an end today 

The Italian fashion capital will see two of its most influential institutions - Giorgio Armani and Gianfranco Ferre - showcase their autumn/winter 2013 collections, concluding six full days of presentations from some of the world's biggest labels.

Armani - who is known for his refined elegance, beautiful colours and understated luxury - will show first and he is yet again set to present and slick and well-executed show.

Gianfranco Ferre - which sees designer duo Federico Piaggi and Stefano Citron at the creative helm - introduced a softer silhouette last season and critics will be keen to see how their vision has evolved for next season.

Milan Fashion Week has already seen displays from Dolce & Gabbana, Marni, Missoni, Emporio Armani and Salvatore Ferragamo, which Gucci helped kick off MFW in style last week.
