Lana del Rey - This Is What Makes Us Girls

British Fashion Award 2011 winner, Mary Katrantzou is lending her trompe-l’oeil skills and vivid digital prints to more than just her frocks. She teamed up with Sophie Delafontaine, creative director of the French luxury leather company, Longchamp, to design a capsule collection of handbags capturing the essence of her signature motifs for spring 2012.
Longchamp’s iconic Pliage bag is revamped for the season. The inspiration for the prints was “East meets West” where Vietnamese temples and beautiful flower bouquets are fused with a wink at Philippe Starck’s aesthetic.
Sporting Katrantzou’s designs on totes seems to be the perfect compromise in gently introducing bold prints to a plain wardrobe.
The collection will hit stores in March, but for the most impatient women, the pre-launch is sold exclusively at the renowned Parisian store Colette from January 23rd.

Stella McCartney’s latest fragrance, L.I.L.Y has launched exclusively at Selfridges on the 26th of January. McCartney says of the fragrance name - “It makes me think of my Mum. Her nickname from my Dad was L.I.L.Y, Linda I love you.”
The scent was created by perfumer, Jacques Cavallier, who also worked on the original Stella fragrance. Cavallier says “Stella wanted a fragrance that redefined the extremely natural and fresh image of lily of the valley. To create more depth, we infused it with notes of truffle from the Perigord region of France, adding a diffuse, caressing texture.”. Notes include truffle, lily of the valley and oakmoss.
