Miu Miu glitter heels

There's nothing that says the summer is here than a gorgeous pair of glam white heels!
These ones from Miu Miu for me tick all the boxes, glossy patent leather, peep toe to show off that new pedi, with a stunning silver glitter heel and platform! What's not to love! Slip a tanned foot into these and watch the hot sun go down while sipping a cocktail, and sneaking a peek every now and then to check the sparkle factor. ✨

Gucci Flora Sunglasses

These have to be the prettiest sunglasses of the season! Gucci I salute you!
Available in 5 colourways, all with graduated tinted lenses, and either gold or silver hardware, with the cutest teeny butterfly landing on the top corner! Heaven! All colours are beautiful, and they will definitely be in my luggage this summer! Get them before they all fly away! £309.

Chanel Wallet on chain

My new Chanel arm candy has to be the most vibrant, stunning colour I've seen for this summer! In Patent leather. It will be be sure to brighten every day I wear it!

Jimmy Choo Crown

I recently bought a pair of Jimmy Choo heels in the style Crown, multi glitter.
They have to be the most comfortable heels I've worn. Here they are, sparkletastic! I could dance the night away in these.......and I intend to!

Bvlgari Serpenti

This season Bvlgari have introduced these beautiful leather bracelets to their Serpenti range. Wear them with lots of attitude and you will be sure to set any summer enable alight these gorgeous pieces! Price range from £200-£300.

Must have heels of the season!

Hotel Splendido, Portofino, Italy

Travel

Portofino, Italy
Hotel Splendido

I have been blessed to stay at this stunning hotel twice now, both visit's were in June. This is a bucket list destination, a hotel with views that only Il San Pierto could compete! With charm in abundance it exudes old hollywood glamour around every corner, a truly magical hotel in all it's glory. Wherever you are in this hotel, there is a view to die for at every angle, an agricultual masterpiece. If I only had two words to describe this hotel, they would be REMARKABLY SPECIAL. 



The spa at the hotel is equally special. Most treatments can be given outside amongst the scenery to intensify and really pack that relaxation punch! Heaven.  




Food here is outstanding, for lunch the menu is mostly fish, pasta's and salads, with different specials daily. 
Dinner here is a very special experience, gentlemen don their jackets and open neck shirts, while the women saunter to their tables accompanied by Hermes or Chanel hanging proudly from their arms, Van Cleef diamonds dazzle from the candlelit tables and all effortlessly draped in the finest Dolce or Pucci of the season. 
At your table you sip a Bellini and watch in the distance, as the sunlight falls into the glistening waters below, you see lights start to twinkle on the ocean from the huge yachts that sail in daily to the port. Then dinner is served, every mouthful is heavenly but however hard you try to concentrate on your meal, the view in the distance pulls your eyes towards it, as if by a magical power which you must succumb.

 The restaurant.


 The Port in Portofino


 Amazing desserts from the evening menu.





The Infinity pool.

Pool staff wait on your every need here. Throughout the day, cocktails are brought to your sun lounger with a smile and individual sachets of wipes are offered for smeared sunglasses. Countless miniature bottles of Evian mist are given to cool you down, in fact, the only thing to interrupt your lounging here, is sunscreen application, but then, if you take a husband, you won't even have to do that! 

 Soaking up the riviera!



I cannot recommend this hotel highly enough, it really is a magical experience.......for all your senses!
