I love YSL arty rings

I think that Arty rings by Yves Saint Laurent that come in a whole array of colours and finishes are the best way to add that little bit of drama to any outfit and emphasise a pefect manicure.  They are a good investment but be warned, the prices have gone up by 25 pounds since last year so lets hope that YSL is not planning to go all Chanel on us...

Rings - Yves Saint Laurent
Bracelets - Topshop and a far away place somewhere in South America
Nail polish - Rimmel 280 sunshine

Matryoshka jewellery

I love little quirky folk-y things.  One of the cute attributes of Russian culture is obviously the Matryoshka doll which has been a popular inspiration for a some jewellery designers.  I instantly fell in love with this ring by Natasha Noir as the top part of the ring actually comes off to reveal a little Matryoshka underneath.  Surprisingly, Swarovski's new collection also features a pendant and a bracelet with a sparkly Russian doll charm.  And by the way, I don't know which genius has branded the Russian dolls as "Babushka" dolls, but that's completely and utterly wrong! Babushka translates as "grandmother" from Russian and has nothing to do with the traditional wooden delights! It's Matryoshka people, Matryoshka!

Cats and Couture basically

In regards to the question as to why this blog is called CatsAndCouture, I can explain. I love fashion and I love cats. Simples my darlings. Look at the beautiful editorial lifted from The Stylist magazine website, featuring real cats modelling exquisite jewellery. If that's not couture, I don't know what is.
