Joyful Christmas to everyone!

We would like to wish joyful Christmas to our friends, families, readers, good followers and respective clients all over the world. This is one of our favourite days of the year and we hope you are all enjoying it as much as we are!

We just wanted to stop in today with a little note to say that we will be taking a blog break this week to enjoy the Christmas season with our families and friends. We may, of course, drop in once or twice over the course of the next couple of weeks but, we don't want to put any expectations on ourselves to do so.

While we wanted to take this festive post as an opportunity to say a massive, genuine and heartfelt thank you to you all for your support, feedback and readership during 2012, we also wanted to use it as a platform to share the love with some old, new and new-to-us followers and clients that we have enjoyed rendering our service over the past year.

Once again, we hope you have an incredible and fabulous Christmas full of love, laughter, food and fun. See you in a week!

Hugs and love xoxo

Black Beauty Planètes

Lately our inbox was swamped with requests for Longchamp Planètes and this month we’ve picked one of our client’s favourite colour – the black Longchamp tote Planètes. She is an avid fan of Longchamp bags (thank you dear!) and chose this lovely versatile colour.

Beautifully packed with love by Longchamp!

Complete with gift message from us Diva Darling

If you are a classy and ‘less is more’ type of girl, this is the colour for you – a bag that is sturdy yet lightweight and you can stow your day-to-day essential. Who doesn’t love the functionality, practicality, and comfort of Longchamp Planètes.

Dimensions : 25x25x14 cm

Overall quality is top-notch and the bag is well-designed in all aspects

Please check your label, the bag is made in France

For those who have just started their interest in Longchamp collection, the Planètes line is made from polyamide fabric with matching leather trim and much thicker than ‘Le Pliage’ model. It has a smoother finish no creases, with crisp sleek look and it’s not a foldable tote (don’t get yourself confuse with Le Pliage bag).

We have added in the fun Burgundy limited edition of Le Maroquinerie tote bag

In keeping up with the winter tradition, we would like to add in the fun limited edition of the Le Maroquinerie (Burgundy) bags for Christmas. We have sold these limited pieces to many of our clients in Europe so grab them now lovelies while you can! We have (2) two sizes available small and medium with long handles. You can get it for you loved ones too, we will wrap them with Longchamp original packaging. Get more info at diva@diva-darling.com.

Have a fab week everyone!

Hugs xoxo

Sweet December

It’s time of the year again – time to give round of applause for the best wedding dresses we have posted since January till now, we hope the compiled images will help to inspire you. Over the years, we have covered the wedding collection from the leading Spanish wedding designers i.e. Pronovias, La Sposa, Rosa Clara etc, down to the amazing designers from all over the world - Zuhair Murad, Monique Lhuillier, Elie Saab, Reem Acra, Jenny Packham, Claire Pettibone, Marchesa and Franc Sarabia.

Creative contemporary designs from Monique Lhuillier

The sleek ponytails, the stunning hand-crafted Elie Saab dresses – absolutely divine!

From earlier this January we have reviewed vintage-inspired collection with lots of charming and organic throughout and followed by extravagant A-list designers Zuhair Murad and Elie Saab collection. We have received a lot of good feedback from our clients on Elie Saab designs and we have incorporated some of his touches onto their dresses as well.

Jenny Packham ‘Aspen’ dress – so sweet and chic!

The sheer beaded and sparkly dress for glamorous couture look

Many modern and chic bride-to-be would like their own modern twist while still staying true to traditional white wedding dress. Another great wedding dress designer of all time is - Veluz Reyes (designer from Philippines also known as the ‘Vera Wang of Philippines) in her attention to detail lace work, beadings, pattern/fabric-cutting space was beyond what we could have ever imagined. Seriously amazing!

Veluz Reyes amazing creation, look at the lace work and beading detailing on the neckline!

Ultra feminine look, embroidered waistline to accentuate your curves

For a more traditional look with a romance couture feel, you will definitely appreciate the Spanish designers collection on their glamorously chic wedding dresses. The décolletage is refreshing coupled with ultra feminine look, their design is a true art deco fashion with its careful placement of gorgeous beads, pearls and sequins.

Remember, no two snowflakes are the same, just like every bride is not the same, so take a look at the rest of these wedding designers have to offer. We promise you that you will not be disappointed. Contact us for more info at diva@diva-darling.com.

Walk down the aisle in fine style!
