Miu Miu’s accessories are almost always covetable. Remember the stunning shoes everyone wanted from SS 2010? This season we have some equally gorgeous bags to drool over. Miu Miu are putting the star theme at the centre of their SS2011 collection, with appliqued stars on bags, skirts and jackets. I personally love the silver clutch bag.

I’m not so avaricious that I would put an actual wish list on my blog. No, this is a list with the emphasis on “wish” – a list of beautiful things that I and most people I know can’t afford. But if any anonymous altruistic billionaires are reading this and feel like making my wishes come true, that would be fine too!
1. A house
Not just any old house either. I would like a house in Rathgar or Ranelagh with a garden please. This house in Rathgar is very lovely:
As is this one in Ranelagh
2. A Schnauzer
I would need the garden for this lil guy (and yes I know it’s for life not just for Christmas). I miss having a dog but it’s only really possible when you have a garden and right now all I have is a yard in which you couldn’t swing the smallest kitten! I’d call him Buddy after Buddy Rich, thus keeping up myself and my Dad’s pet naming tradition.
5. Lulu Guinness Lips Clutch Bag
6. Lastly:
I have never been kissed under mistletoe. I am thirtyfreakingfour people! Not once! So before I get to thirtyfreakingfive (which is more than half my life span if my grandparents are anything to go by) I’d like it to happen.
I hope everyone gets everything on their Christmas wish list!
I usually prefer tough shoes akin to those by McQueen or Givenchy, something with a hard edge and a very high heel. However the shoes featured in Miu Miu’s Spring 2010 Ready-To-Wear, while feminine, printed, and generally not my usual taste, are just divine!

The pale pink ones printed with black birds have my name on them. The pretty print is balanced by the chunky 70s style heel and platform. Too mouthwateringly gorgeous for words.
