I love these shoes!!

Shoe designer Aruna Seth is having a sale on her website, ooh if money was no object...click here to see the full range.

Some holiday snaps...

I just got back from a week in Chicago and thought I'd put up a few of my pictures!



We saw the White Sox Play. Technically we're Cubs fans but they were out of town.

Um, how amazing is this wedding cake??

A cool Art Deco building.

Some pretty flowers.

Really?!

Some cool record covers in a shop window.

I love some flashy signage.


Another pretty flower.

The view at night from my aunts rooftop.

NEW IN - PIN UP PLAYING CARDS!!

Back in 2005 when I first opened Black Pearl I stocked the first edition of Heidi and Sabina's Pin Up Playing Cards. They quickly sold out and 4 years later the Vegas-based girls have produced a much anticipated second edition which have just arrived in Black Pearl. Priced at £19 per pack, these are bound to liven up any card game. Buy them for your significant other and he'll think you the coolest girlfriend ever.

Vintage Summer Dresses

Here are some vintage summer dresses I which recently came in, take a look!




100 Years of Selfridges...featuring Black Pearl(!)

One of my favourite shops in London - Selfridges - is celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, and to mark the occasion they have unveiled an amazing window display. I was asked to make some giant yellow bows for the display (hello, bows? Yes!) and here are the finished results!





Each window is done entirely in yellow and black (the famous Selfridges colours) and looks totally amazing. Get down and have a look if you're in town!
