Collaborations are like music to my ears! And what better collaboration than the Luxury fashion giant Louis Vuitton and ethical fashion brand EDUN founded by the U2 frontman Bono and Ali Hewson?  This limited edition bag,sold to help the Conservation Cotton Initiative, is embossed with the LV monogram and 13 handmade and crafted charms in cooperation with MADE (a fairtrade jewelry brand). This bag is LV’s first made in africa product, seeing as the charms are produced by craftspeople in Kenya. It is priced at 4,900 USD.

As a self confessed jewelry junkie, I love looking at details from runway shows and trying to make them more wearable for day to day wardrobe. And while a lot of the jewelry on the catwalk is pretty yet unwearable, Azza Fahmy for Preen’s FW2010 show was spot on! We love the lace-like motifs and calligraphy.

(1. Silver hand pierced choker. 2. silver multi faceted bangles. 3. Preen FW 2010 show 4. Preen FW 2010 Show. Items available from www.azzafahmy.com , Check website for stockist information)

We absolutely love the futuristic vibe of the jewelry that still maintains wearability. Try layering a choker under a turtleneck sweater for an edgy look this winter!

I absolutely love finding beautiful designer shoes (admit it, not all shoes are pretty). But what makes me even happier is finding AFFORDABLE designer shoes. Yes, you heard it! While H&M are busy collaborating with Lanvin and Gap with Valentino, Aldo comes to us with (in my opinion) a more kick a$$ collaboration. Julian Louie for Aldo! The talented designer presented his collection a few days ago as part of NYFW and the fash crowd was all over the wedges his models were rocking. Its confirmed that those beautiful shoes will hit Aldo stores soon, but the dates havent been announced yet. Watch this space!

Whats your favorite color combination? I think Im gonna get 2 pairs of those and wear them till they fall apart! What better trend for S/S2011 than ethnic tribal and boho?
