Liberty Print Wrap Watches

Above: Edenham Liberty Print Wrap Watch. £85

From Michael Kors to Libery London. Newly released, these Liberty print wrap watches showcase some of the stores most iconic and sought after fabrics. Encased in a leather strap that wraps twice about the wrist, and with a square face, this collection of watches reflects individual style and taste. My personal favourites are the edenham and capel prints, featured above and below. For only £85, not only do you get a pretty accessory, you will be buying into Liberty heritage of prints.

Michael Kors: Chronograph Watch

I saw someone wear this the other week and I could not take me eyes off it - without a doubt, it's gone straight onto my luxury list of must-haves.

I've always been a fan of Michael Kors watches, and this one is particularly unique and beautiful with a high-shine rose gold strap and navy dial. You can get one in Harrods for only £239...hardly breaking the bank!

Of things to come x Italy 2012

It's happening & I cannot wait!

Flights are booked and I'm planning my travels through Italy. First stop - fair Verona. After having watched 'Letters to Juliet' recently, I was taken back by the fantasy surrounding Casa di Giulietta (Juliet's House). People from all over the world come to visit the Capuleti household to sit in her courtyard and write her letters, to which her secretaries will reply. I want to write my own.

For once, I have the means to go and do anything I want - I've no ties holding me back and I have no plans. With my main passion being travel, I've decided to follow my own feet and set out by myself. Most people are shocked that I'm going solo, and want to know why - well, after the last few years I've had, you'd understand why I'd want to be alone, a little alienated, and back in one of my favourite countries...I also miss the ice-creams and pizza.

If you know any local haunts, have any words of wisdom or live in the Veneto or the north - please get in touch. I'd love to hear from you.
