Here is an idea for an investment that could help your budget keep up with handbag prices – if you have a little spare cash, you could think about investing in gold as a future hedge. Unless you have been hiding under a stone for the past two years you will be well aware that the price of gold has risen way beyond the rise in inflation (or deflation) in stark contrast to the value of many fixed assets like property.

Not only do gold coins make an attractive gift, they are likely to appreciate in value in much the same way as an unused Hermes Birkin would do. you can buy a gold coin at the moment for around $1000, which is actually well below the price of a Birkin. But given the recent rises in value of these coins, in a couple of years that coin could be worth a lot mpore than the same sum invested into handbags – so that Birkin could eventually be yours, with a little canny purchasing in the current markets.

I have always envied anybody with thick, lustrous long hair and the versatile styles they can use to create a completely new look for every occasion.  As the owner of thin mousy rats’ tails myself, I usually resign myself to the limited number of gamine waif styles available to me.  Now, of course, there are many more hair possibilities on offer, thanks to the human extention hair that you can buy. I first learned about this when I was planning my wedding, and I wanted a style that could support a small tiara.   Clever people like the lovely Lovette are selling bulk human hair that can be literally fused to your own locks, creating the abundant look that you want, and the join is undetectable!  This new technique is a world apart form the original hair extension, which were sewn in.  Although they looked pretty fun ky, it was fairly obvious when you wore extensions.  The new method of hair fusion costs more but it gives a more natural and durable look – in the end you will feel as though this is all your own hair, thanks to the expert selection of bulk hair from which the skilled hair artists choose the right colour and texture to blend with your tresses.

Watching television at home is completely different from the way it was less than ten years ago. With wider choice we now use our televisions in a completely different way, and the choices over services are many. Thanks to services like Direct TV we are no longer restricted to turning on and simply watch the four or five standard terrestrial channels. Read more »

This Mulberry Bayswater model is crafted from rouge noir crinkled patent leather, with a front turnlock fastening and a silver padlock. All the metal hardware on the bag is silver in colour. It has a rouge noir crinkled leather tag that hangs down from one handle. Inside, the Bayswater has two pockets and one zipped compartment, with leather belt straps to adjust the size.

Mulberry lists the colour of this bag as rouge noir, but it is really more of a berry colour. I gave the Rouge Noir Mulberry Bayswater at the Mulberry shop in London’s New Bond Street.  Unlike many of Mulberry’s leather bag this special edition Bayswater needs no special care.  The patent leather is soft and supple, it does not need polishing or leather cream and of course it simply shrugs the rain off.  Inside the bag is lined with rich soft berry coloured suede.  Definitely my favourite Mulberry bag this year.

Patent leather, like all leather, will crease as it ages, but this only enhances its appearance.

Measurements: 37cm x 30cm x 16.5cm (all measurements are approximate)

This is an investment piece that will see you smartly from this season to the next – rouge noir is a great colour and a refreshing change from black.  Mulberry has found another way of persuading Bayswater fans to reach for their credit cards. Selling at £650, this Mulberry Bayswater Patent is a fabulous investment piece that will last you forever.
