Fashion Cookbook

Tonight I'll be eating Isaac Mizrahi's Mushroom Truffle spaghetti, or perhaps Yellowtail Crudo courtesy of Derek Lam. Sadly, no, I haven't found myself some new fash-pack friends, but I have been leafing through the CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America) Fashion cookbook. The book contains several recipes ranging from no-fuss meals for lazy nights in, to more impressive dishes to impress friends/ loved ones. All recipes are contributed by famous American designers, so naturally these dishes are best served with a touch of fabulousness.

On my feet today #3

Had a lot of walking to do today. Well, just to get some lunch at the fabulous Grove Cafe (home of the best chocolate cupcakes ever) so I pulled on some skinny jeans, a warm cashmere jumper, and went all biker chic with these boots from Topshop.

Champagne and Shoes-Two of my Faves.

Go to Selfridges, and check out this beautiful crystal champagne flute, shaped like a shoe. Designed by none other than Christian Louboutin himself, in collaboration with Champagne producers Piper-Heidsieck, the glass pays homage to the 1880s ritual of drinking champagne from a lady's shoe. Yummy.

Origami Tea Bags

Love, Love, LOVE these origami, bird-shaped tea bags designed by Russian designer Natalia Ponomareva. I Just wish I could actually get my hands on a package, as it appears for now, these little beauties are still in prototype stage. 


P.S In the interim, I will just have to make do with Tea Forte's pyramid tea bags. Not quite as good but adds a touch more glamour than the usual tea-bag. Available at most posh food halls, and provided (as i have discovered) in good hotels. Otherwise click here for their website.
