Not only do they look pretty damn cool, the lights are interactive, reacting to the movement of people walking beneath them via motion cameras, and change ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/29/london-lights-up-in-style/ http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/29/emporio-armani-autumnwinter-20078/ http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/28/monique-lhuillier-autumnwinter-200708/ It's a delicate science: politely informing a gift-giver that their gift isn't to your liking. On occasion, I suppose the recipient could just shut their mouth and act pleased. However, keeping mouth shut means Oxfam gets the sweater, and I get nothing 'til next year's ill-conceived gift. So I spoke up. Receipt in-hand, ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/27/wrangler-tangler/            http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/23/have-a/ I went to my favourite shop to get a skirt that I saw on Friday but running late, didn't buy.  To my surprise the only skirt left was in size 42. The question is WHY ISN'T SELLING MINI SKIRTS IN SIZE 42 BANNED?!

Really. http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/20/accessorising-with-hm/ It took about five minutes to construct the subject line of this post. You read correctly. Introducing OhMiBod. WHERE is it all going to end?! Lady users use the rhythms and beats of the tunes on their iPods to program how the OhMiBod... performs... when performing, and simultaneously listen to said tunes during ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/19/ipod-inspired-vibrator-rhythms/ I bought a very nice overcoat yesterday. It's not an overcoat I needed, really. I need a greater selection of trousers, and I could really do with a few nice sweaters. But it was an overcoat I walked out of the shop with, so... so be it. I like it. I'm ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/18/the-purchase-of-overcoats/ Here are a couple of photos from the new Chanel eyewear campaign featuring Christy Turlington.

This year I've already picked my shoes, but I can't make up my mind about the dress. These two really caught my eye: Betsey Johnson Back Bustle Sheath Dress Nicole Miller Stretch Charmeuse Dress I really like the ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/16/new-years-dilemma/ If you have a calendar with hunky priests already how about an iPod docking station in the loo?  Just too shock some of your guests even more. I read about iCarta in the inflight magazine and thought it was rather silly. Then I decided it was actually quite funny and now I must ... http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/15/icarta/ I hate the smugness of Apple. Yet, I do admire this clever advert on the New York Times site, linking-up and synchronising a super size banner and a skyscraper to tout their operating system over Microsofts. (Currently the advert is visible here, though I don't know how long for...) http://www.lestyleblog.com/2007/12/15/apple-being-clever/ Calendario Romano 2008.
