Putting Your Best Foot Forward...

Monday 15th March 2010

Sometimes, here at SheerLuxe, we discover a site so fabulous that we’re sorely tempted to keep it to ourselves. Kate Kanzier was one such site, but when we saw that prices started at just £20, we just knew we had to share it with you, dear readers. Her online boutique is every...

Heads Above the Rest

Thursday 11th March 2010

From the moment Madonna stepped out wearing Louis Vuitton’s bunny ears, it was clear that the wearing of elaborate headbands is no longer reserved for summer weddings. One such hair accessory designer that makes us want to don giant bows, oversized corsages and out-of-this-world lace creations atop our heads is Benoit Missolin. Why?...

Mother's Ruin

Thursday 11th March 2010

We predict that by the end of Mothering Sunday, your mother will hopefully be besieged by more bouquets of flowers and boxes of truffles than she could ever display/eat. We're adding something else to the mix: a yummy fruit liqueur from new company, My GINeration. My GINeration sell a selection of...

Up to 70% OFF Designer Shoe Sale!

Tuesday 9th March 2010

Ladies, we know you like your shoes and we know you love sales... So we just had to tell you about theOutnet’s latest, must-visit shoe sale. With a list of designers that reads like the who’s who of shoes (we’re talking Chloé, Marc Jacobs, Pedro Garcia and much more), this is your...

You've Got a Friend...

Friday 26th February 2010

Despite Valentine’s day being firmly out of sight and out of mind for yet another year, it seems there's still a lot of (platonic) love in the air... Yes, another gorgeously grown-up friendship bracelet has caught our eyes, this time by Monica Vinader, the latest designer to re-imagine the traditional token of...

Your Wardrobe for the Season Awaits...

Friday 19th February 2010

Save the dates seem to be making their way through our letterboxes left, right and centre, so it’s never too early to think about what you’re going to wear to that wedding/christening/speech day/graduation, especially when we’re talking multiple events with the same guests (yes, someone will notice that you’ve worn your...

Bride-a-Porter

Thursday 18th February 2010

If money was no object, we’d buy our whole wardrobe from Net-a-Porter. They have everything a girl needs – jaw-dropping dresses for those extra special parties, glamorous kaftans for sunning oneself in St. Barts (a girl can dream, can’t she?), and now everything you need for a perfect wedding day, thanks...

Cult Cushions

Monday 15th February 2010

Spring is just around the corner and what better way to update a tired room than with a new cushion? But not just any old cushion – all the most in-the-know magazine editors are piling their sofas with the divine creations of in-demand up-and-coming designer, Barbara Coupe. Each cushion is hand-embroidered...

WIN a Chanel Nail Varnish in Particuliere!

Friday 12th February 2010

At the S/S 10 shows, fashion editors, PRs and models were all seen (gasp) wearing the same thing... Glossy Taupe Nails abounded but far from being a faux pas, it was only the sure sign of yet another cult nail varnish courtesy of Chanel, one that us mere mortals would be...

Let Him Unwrap You with Myla

Wednesday 10th February 2010

It takes a special kind of man to appreciate unwrapping a heart-wielding teddy bear on Valentine's Day. So back away from the love hearts and cuddly toys and instead, let him unwrap you on February 14th with a little help from Myla. At the luxe lingerie boutique you'll find a treasure trove...

Inspiration from the Inspiring

Tuesday 9th February 2010

We know we're not the only ones hoping for a special piece of jewellery this Valentine's Day, and where better to indulge yourself (or let someone indulge you) than luxe jewellery emporium, Astley Clarke? To give you a bit of inspiration, we've asked four aspirational women to tell us their favourite pieces....

The Day That...

Friday 5th February 2010

Whilst we love a bouquet of flowers and would happily demolish a box of chocolates (if it’s a gift, the calories don’t count, do they?), sometimes we’d like to a give a gift that’s completely and utterly unique. And you don’t get more unique than The Day That. We couldn’t believe...

Happiness in a Coat

Tuesday 2nd February 2010

March issue magazines are filled to the brim with spring/summer fashion – so you’d be forgiven for thinking that you might be able to swap your puffer for a palette of florals and pastels. Unfortunately, it’s not quite that time just yet, but we’re consoling ourselves with the fact that we...

WIN Perfect Skin!

Wednesday 27th January 2010

Here at SL HQ, we’re bombarded with press releases for beauty products that promise miracles but deliver little more than a rash and a whole lot of dashed hope. We’d become cynical until new skincare brand OSKIA caught our eye with its elegantly understated packaging, nutritional approach to improving skin health,...

theOutnet Workwear Picks

Monday 25th January 2010

It’s that time of the year, when we all find the morning commute to work on those grey days a struggle. With sickies at an all-time high, what better way to make you spring out of bed than a few new additions to your workwear wardrobe? And not just any pieces –...

Cosying up the Home

Thursday 21st January 2010

The snow is falling (intermittently), the rain is pouring, and quite frankly, even our cosiest shearling boots won’t stop our toes from turning blue. It’s at times like these that we want to run away to the country – think roaring fires, oodles of cashmere, and that favourite family pet warming up...

A Tote to Rival All Totes

Monday 18th January 2010

Whilst we love our Longchamp Le Pliage totes, sometimes we want something different in which to lug around our spare shoes/gym kit/the kitchen sink. Luckily for us, my-wardrobe has just started stocking Italian brand Calabrese, and their super smart tote bags. Think bright block colour canvas (plus classic black) trimmed with brown...

Over the Toffee Moon

Friday 15th January 2010

Sometimes we happen upon a site that’s so gorgeous it elicits audible ‘oohs’ and ‘aahs’ in the SL weekly editorial meeting. One such site is Toffee Moon, an online boutique filled with the most scrumptious luxury clothing and accessories for little ones. Think classic cardigans, adorable all-in-ones and all manner of...

Introducing the new SheerLuxe Boutique...

Wednesday 13th January 2010

Looking for something in particular? An LRD (aka Little Red Dress) for an upcoming cocktail party? A brass lamp for your bedside table? A striped shirt for him? Don’t spend hours scouring the web – we’ve done the hard work for you and edited the best of the web in the...

A Fashionable Friendship

Wednesday 6th January 2010

A friend in need is a friend indeed, but a friend who comes bearing a Gina Stewart Cox bracelet is even better. We can’t get enough of the new designer’s cord bracelets – a grown up friendship bracelet with a difference. If the term ‘friendship bracelet’ conjures up visions of homemade,...

Svelte & Streamlined

Monday 4th January 2010

It’s the New Year and we’re determined not to have any broken resolutions. Which is why we’re not making any. No, vowing to go to the gym twice daily to burn off all those mince pies and Yorkshire puds is for sadists, so we’re swapping our gym kit for Mama la...
