Heavenly Hair Accessories

Breathtakingly pretty! I've discovered this designer on etsy.com Samantha Sultana makes the most gorgeous hair accessories I've even seen. And I'm just one of her many admirers - some of her better known fans include Fergie, Gwen Stefani and Christina Aguilera. Her prices are on the hefty side, but that's what gorgeous originality costs these days!

How hygenic is your handbag?

I actually cringe when I see people put their handbags on tabletops or couches in my home or even their home. I mean these are the same handbags that have been flung on the floors of cafes and restaurants and god knows where else. Now, I'm not a real clean freak but I do believe that the bottom of your handbag should be treated like the bottom of your shoes and not placed on surfaces that you would like to keep nice and clean.

So I loved the idea of a handbag hanger (a little hook that you can place on the side of the table and hang your handbag off it) and was scouring all of Australia for a classy one that I could use when I was out and about. Unfortunately most of them here look at bit cheap and nasty and gimmicky. But, here's one I absolutely love!! (although you have to order it in from the states). http://www.dangle-it.com/

More shoe closets of the rich and famous!

Carrie wasn't the only Sex In The City girl to have a shoe closet to die for! Kim Cattrall more than holds her own here (although doesn't quite make it to Mariah's level).

Peeking into Mariah Carey's Shoe Closet

OK - we'll admit not everyone needs a Benjibox shoebox drawer. If you've got unlimited space and cash, then why not follow Mariah's lead. Wow! A girl can only dream!

Twist your Trash Tie

What a nifty invention. These are fabric covered twist ties for your hair (like the ones you use for sandwich bags but much longer and much prettier! In the US I think they use twist ties for tying up their garbage (hence "trash ties") www.trashties.com I'd love to get my hands on a few but it takes them several weeks to fulfil an order!
