Kelly Hoppen's 'Design Masterclass' Book Launch

Last week I went to the Perrier-Jouët and chocolate macaroon filled launch of Kelly Hoppen’s latest interiors book, ‘Design Masterclass: How to Achieve the Home of Your Dreams,’ at  Belgraves Hotel.  As one of the world’s leading contemporary interior designers, a talent for which she was appointed a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE), Kelly Hoppen is world-renowned for her minimalist yet luxuriously elegant interiors. The latest member of BBC2’s ‘Dragon’s Den’ panel, Kelly is responsible for designing some of the world’s most lavish houses, apartments and yachts; she operates the celebrated Kelly Hoppen Design School; and she has created a successful range of furniture and home accessories.  ‘Design Masterclass’ is a professional guide to home decorating, beautifully peppered with inspiring images of some of her latest projects.

NYFW: Kate Spade New York SS'14

When life gives you lemons, you’d best hope they’re by Kate Spade!  The Kate Spade New York SS’14 presentation during New York Fashion Week was the ideal antidote to the bustling streets of Manhattan with the collection, entitled ‘Places to Go,’ People to See,’showcased in a tranquil indoor garden filled with lemon trees.  The collection was as feminine and perfectly polished as one has come to expect from the brand, and the delicious ladylike lemon print dress and skirt, alongside the playful zesty accessories (the straw bag below has my name all over it!) were irresistibly sweet.
