I wish it was London Fashion week every week. And I also wish there was Sheffield Fashion Week. I'm making sure I get down to London next year to capture all of the beautiful clothes. All of the pictures of shows i've seen look great, but one of my favourites by far, has to be Vivienne Westwood's. Labels: Comic Relief, Designer, London Fashion Week, Vivienne Westwood In the past, various designers have contributed to Red Nose Day - but these t-shirts are gorgeous, and fresh from LFW. The t-shirts with historical figures such as William Shakespeare feature on the t-shirts, of corse, with the iconic red nose. The best bit? They're only £10. And £5 for each t-shirt goes straight to comic relief. TK-Maxx are selling the t-shirt's again this year, and I'll definitely be getting one. Or two. 
Images from LOOKLove love love them. Quirky, kitsch and designed by Vivienne Westwood. Can't really go wrong, can you?
GIVEAWAY AT 100 FOLLOWERS. CURRENTLY AT 83. PLEASE HELP ME OUT :')Yes, it's true. Yesterday morning it was confirmed that possibly one of the most exiting collaborations, H&M and French designers Alber Elbaz and Lucas Ossendrijver for Lanvin are joining to create a capsule collection for H&M. Exited, much? It's been a long awaited conformation, but I for one, can definitely say that I'm more exited than a little kid at Christmas for the release of this undoubtedly gorgeous collaboration. Looks will be revealed on November 2nd, a few weeks before the pieces sell out in stores. Following the heavenly status' of Karl Lagerfeld, Comme des Garçons and Jimmy Choo, it's obvious to assume the triumph that is soon to follow!What are your views on this collaboration? Hit or miss? Exited? I certainly am. Not only to take a look, but to post the beautiful pictures, with the anticipation to post. Lots of love,

Anyway, isn't this the most beautiful Prada collection, ever?
As any Prada fan will know, prints are their speciality – Miuccia even has her own textile library – but the new collection, inspired by the 1950s, features a single dress in a range of fabrics and archive Prada prints with prices starting at £425 (going up to £475 depending on fabric and print), which is decidedly purse friendly in designer terms. The designs are matched to delicate ribbon topped ballerina pumps at £235 and chain strap silk shoulder bags (prices are yet to be confirmed). Going on sale mid May, it’s the perfect opportunity to bag that designer investment buy you’ve always dreamt of.
Also, new layout! Feauturing Ms Olsen, what do you think? Which of the xruthloves layouts are your favorites? Hey - who would have thought Prada for under £500?!
Have a great weekend, and hey, the suns out for once.
Love, Ruth xoxo

How beautiful was the sky today?!
For starters, we all know Jessica Stam is obviously hot stuff in the supermodel stakes - Marc Jacobs even named his cult Stam bag after her - so when i saw Aldo’s hottest look modeled by the gorgeous Stam, i had to share it with you guys! Shot by legendary photographer Terry Richardson, Jessica changes to various characters from pin-up girl to teenage hellcat using Aldo’s amazing range of bags, shoes, and accessories! I love them, don't you?
New year = New awards. The early months are always big for the a-listers, and you know what award ceremonies mean? Dresses!
Here's who wore what, who, and for some cases, i would love to know why!Taylor Swift looking effortlessly glamorous in Kaufman Franco

Pink looking very feminine and pretty - love the matching hair
Miley Cyrus looking very glam in teal by Herve Leger & Balenciaga heels = so jealous
Rihanna goes all ice-maiden in a white floor length gown by Elie Saab
Katy Perry Wearing Zac Posen - she looks stunning (as usual) but im not too sure about the flowers.. i think it looks a bit old womanish? Still gorgeous though!
And for the not so good...Malin Akerman? What were you thinking? Ticking all the right boxes.. knee-high boots.. metallics.. shift dress.. together? Stripper? I think so..
And save the best till' last....Not that i expected any less, but she surprises me every time! Looking amazing in customized Armani
And surely she must have worn 'party feet' with these?! How do you even walk.. yet again.. i'm amazed at what she's done
Oh doesn't it make you jealous?

The high street has never been quicker to pick up on the latest celebrity and catwalk trends. If, like me, you’re still paying back your Christmas splurge then a piece of statement neck candy is the chicest and cheapest way to update last year’s buys. Just look to the spring/summer 2010 catwalks and celebrities like newcomer Carey Mulligan or the gorgeous Jessica Alba for inspiration. From Topshop to Asos, Accessorize to French Connection - shop the best statement necklaces on the high street now. Labels: Designer, Fashion, Highstreet, Spring/Summer10
What do you think? I like Jessica's but not to keen on Careys. Will you be investing in any bulky buys this s/s?
Remember, the bigger, the better.
Also...! Thankyou very much to Nunu @ Classically Cool for the blog award she gave me! It means sooooo much!
