We Love Burberry!

I think my favourite designer of the moment has to be Burberry, (shall we not mention the Chav-Check which took off a few years back).

They were really dark and sexy! A bunch of young moody people sitting around on old sofas in gorgeous thick silk dresses clutching stunning bags like their life depended on it. Sort of like a mix between ’Skins’ and afternoon tea. All you have [...]
