Mr. Luxe and I have been donating to the charity Born Free since 2009.
.
They’re aiming to end mother-to-child HIV transmission globally by Dec.31.2015
And I’ve a luxe moral compass. With magpie tendencies
So this colab gets me excited
and not just team SHOPBOP, team VOGUE have joined forces too
It’s luxe. It costs less. It’s win win.
So I’ve done my research….
They’ve garnered support in the shape of some right fash pack royalty. 22 current catwalk designing heavyweights. A covetable line-up including Isabel Marant, Chloé, Prada and my personal favourite brit babe Victoria Beckham.
Each of them asked to rustle up pieces for mother AND child – but let’s face it, we’re only really interested in mother luxe – aren’t we?
.
So Dear Mr. Luxe.
Here’s my shopping list:
.
Chloé – The MUST season buy
Clare Waight Keller for Chloé top and shorts
A super luxe print exclusive to Born Free – designed by Kenyan artist Wangechi Mutu – it luxe good! #gimmegimme
.
Victoria Victoria Beckham – the likely SELL OUT
Mother and Daughter matchy matchy
Big girl £136.00 Little girl £74.00
I predict this pairing most likely to fly straight into the clutches of ebayers and promptly sky-rocket in price.
Luxe it or lose out.
.
Prada – the INVESTMENT
Fraction of the price alert
With new-season Prada pieces costing anywhere from £400+ it’s a steal at £150.00. Non?
My fashionista sister Glenda – currently luxing Vietnam – will no doubt have already swiped this one onto her Amex.
A++++’s for Miuccia – she knows her way around an A line alright.
.
Isabel Marant – a sigh of relief for those who missed the H&M colab back in November
Yep. Wannabe peasant girls with internet access can buy into a slice of Marant.
Of the moment. Off the hook.
A snip with Big girl costing £117.00 and Peasant poppet only £60.00
Girl’s let’s do our bit and put our money where our morals are – every penny spent on this peasant blouse counts.
.
While you’re at it, take a peek at Elle’s edit. I think Shopbop’s fash editor Elle has my summer wrapped up – in luxe denim.
.
*There is plenty more. Marchesa, Marni even McCartney makes an appearance. I could list them all.
But I do have a life… maybe xXx
