Not to forget it is also a fashion statement and during this brutal winter, the shoes and the purses have been lifesavers. They are the only accessories that can be regularly changed to add a kick to an otherwise dull parka or winter coat.

Hello Darlings, As February marks the beginning of worldwide fashion weeks, I made my way to New York for Tommy Hilfiger festivities and prior to that for some much needed down time. On a snowy Monday morning I hoped into a cab to Park Avenue Armory arriving just 5 minutes to 10. As I made my way into the historic building and checked in at the media center, I was quickly taken backstage to see the action live. What a thrill it was!

Along with 40 of other international media, we had the opportunity to mingle backstage with some of the fresh faced beauties while Pat McGrath ensured that every girl looked perfect. The girls were then quickly rushed into the change room at the back for a run through prior to the final show. Before the attendees began to arrive, we were shown the elaborate set that transported us to Colorado slopes rather than New York city. With snowy slopes and a cabin, we were in for a treat.
