The Return of the Kitten Heel

Kitten heels are being cited everywhere as the major trend for 2010/2011. Mrs O has been wearing hers since...well ever...and anything she does is instantly in vogue...

As much as I love my borderline stripper heels...kitten heels would be a fantastic break...

The kitten heel of Europe's fashion elite for 2010 is the Valentino studded kitten heel. Fusing practicality, femininity and an element of the warrior women trend of 2009, this heel has it all. I love it that patent is being worked into something more elegant.

Trend 2010: The" Watch Bracelet"

The "watch bracelet". Not to be confused with "bracelet watches" (bracelets with a watch face in them). I think someone needs to a write an urban fashion dictionary explaining these things.

Sorry back to my original explanation of the "watch bracelet", getting a chunky silver/chrome watch (mens or womens) and piling on the silver bangles and chains on top. If you are like me and have small hands, the Witchery watch below is a nice alternative if a male chrome watch swamps your wrist and destroys your ability to type. Witchery are not stocking these in Wellington or Christchurch but you can order it online (also comes in a gold colour).
