Controversial Collection of Alexander McQueen

Middle image is a never worn dress Lady Gaga at the Grammy Awards in 2010. The unique design and use of materials made from a mixture of leather and plastic. This dress was inspired by the movie stars wars.

Still in 2010, Alexander McQueen never issued a collection to welcome the global warming campaign. The materials used are made from recycled plastic materials.

Latin fusion with African fashion to create work that is very elegant. This dress was also caused controversy, because it is dedicated by Alexender McQueen for anti-racist campaign in France.

Cups and Cookies

Congratulations for Diamond Jubilee

It is so cold! And on a day like today, or any another other day really....I love a nice hot coffee and bit of chocolate!

Fuji baked lovely soft choco cookies for us with some crunchy peanuts butter.

(Brownies are undoubtedly one of my all time favourites: she said)

To celebrate the queens 60th year we used our vintage jubilee cups and saucer.

Maisy seems to be enjoying the snow too!

vintage cups

I went out with Fuji to London, it was sooo cold but was always fun!!

We went to Angel in north London, and hunted for lovely vintage items.
There were a lot of lovely items in the market, especially these vintage/antique cups.

They make me want to have lots of tea parties with my friends.
