The Most Fashionable Phone Covers

Your phone cover says a lot about you and in age where the type of phone you possess is a serious status symbol, you need to get the case right.  Flip cases, hard cases, phone socks or even just front and back stick on screens all vie for our attention with each having different characteristics.

Designer brands like Zagliani and D&G adorn some of the most elegant phones with expensive leathers and finely crafted couture finishes.  These designs mainly come in the form of flip cases which are both stylish and practical due to the fact that they encompass the phone and perform a dual role: phone sock and case combined.

The Sony Xperia Z has a beautiful and reasonable example of a Flip Case on the Phones4U website.  It opens sideways and has a magnetic closure making for a very smart or very elegant case - whichever interpretation you take.  For those who are keen to exude professionalism the flip case is a great asset.  Front and back transparent scratch shields could also be a good option for the business type user.

The simple hardback iPhone case is often the most widely interpreted due to its availability.  You can buy these cases from all sorts of designer stores but they are also sold online by most mobile phone retailers.  They are reasonably priced and creatively designed with the Tread GT case a fine example; it incorporates a striking tyre grip design, and also the IceBox which is ultra-sleek and really sets off the iPhones organic yet space age aesthetic.  Both these covers come in at a reasonable £19.99 and feature as 1 & 2 in the most popular chart.

The Union Jack iPhone case is a case that may have taken your eye on the street with its rustic looking weathered type colours giving it a traditional yet quirky feel.  The Blue Roses case is also a big seller at Phones4U, featuring the contrasting aqua blue and boldly outlined flowers which lend it a kitsch slightly oriental inspired feel.

The likes of Marc Jacobs and Dannijo also provide an array of hard case type covers with fascinating design inspiration including bohemian, psychedelic and futuristic.

Legally Glam | Wish list

I recently stumbled across a new site which i have fallen in love with, Legally Glam.. it's an original online family run British boutique which specialises in the sale of authentic designer quality brands of sunglasses, watches and accessories.
Having stumbled across their site i was amazed to see so many of my favourite designers and i knew that i had to write up a wish list.
My first and this is no surprise is the Michael Kors Watch in Rose Gold, so many bloggers have this watch, and i can see why! It's been on my wish list for years now.. And although i've settled for a Marc Jacobs one i will always have my heart set out for a Michael Kors watch.
The second item i spotted was this cute dainty heart necklace by Just Cavalli, i love things like this and it's always nice as a gift for keepsake purposes. I've had my eye on this necklace for a while now and i think it's such a precious piece.
There always has to be a handbag in my wish list somewhere and yup of course theres one in this wish list to.. I think this bag has to be my dream bag it's the Florian London Saffiano City Shopper! It's big,  a lovely gorgeous colour and it has lots of compartments.. If i weren't saving up right now then this bag would be mine i'd make darn sure of it! 
And lastly is these gorgeous Marc Jacobs Sunglasses, i've always loved Marc Jacobs sunglasses i much prefer them to the Ray Bans.. These pair in particular i've had my eye on for a while. I just love them and feel like i need to own them..

Are any of these items on your wish list to?..

Treat Republic... Coming soon..

Coming soon, Treat Republic a new online store selling handpicked and personalised gifts.. 
Treat Republic is launching this Summer 2013 and will be a great place to discover beautiful gift collections, selected with love and designed to impress.
Founded in 2006 and formerly known as Treather.com, Treathim.com and Treatbaby.com.. Treat Republic is bringing together all these collections to create a new, exciting and larger range of gifts making it easier for you to treat those we love.
Treather.com was created in order to solve a simple problem - how to make men give better gifts to the woman they loved, making sure that the woman got the best gifts, beautifully wrapped and received in time.
After that, they were contacted by some of their female customers who told them to start a simular service but for men instead.. and that was where Treathim.com was created.
Then in 2011, some of their friends and the team started having babies and it didn't take long for them to realise that a simular problem existed for the people who didn't have children and knew absolutely nothing about what to buy the bundles of joy.. and of course you've guessed it, that's when Treatbaby.com was created. 

Treat Republic - Personalised Gifts is due to launch in June 2013. All gifts currently available on TreatHer.com, TreatHim.com, and TreatBaby.com will be available on Treat Republic as well as many more.

Tights Tights Tights

One of my latest and up most favourite places to browse online lately is a store called Tights Tights Tights, i don't think it really needs a description but here's one anyway..
Tights Tights Tights started as a shop over 12 years ago in the Metrocentre Gateshead, Europe's largest shopping centre attracting over 30million visitors every year (me being one of them). They sell a large range of tights, stockings, hold-ups and accessories for all occasions so i'll be sure to pop in on my travels this Summer.
As always, i've put together my favourites on the website and made a little collage for you all to see..  I'll start with the sheer tights, i absolutely love the designs on both of these, one has a Starburst Sequined Effect and the other has a Tattoo Print Effect
The 2 under that are the Kiss me Stupid Print tights which i thought were so adorable and very loud, and the other one is the Solid Side Bow Suspender Tights, i love these because they are so simple but very girly.. plus i love anything that has bows on.
The last 2 choices are my favourites, the first one is this Bridal Floral Net Hold Ups the pattern on these are so cute and something i would wear on my wedding day and the last choice is by far my favourite out of them all and it's the Paris Skyline Tights, just look how cute they are! I'm actually thinking about making a cheeky purchase as i've completely fallen in love with them.
My favourite brand of tights definitely goes to Pamela Mann, her designs are so out there, she definitely wins the funkiest designs to me.

Do you shop at Tights Tights Tights?.. If so, which one's are your favourite?..
