Alexander McQueen Satin Knuckleduster Box Clutch from Covetique

I've just found UK online store Covetique which buys and sells pre-owned designer clothes and accessories.  Customers can sell their items - and they collect free of charge - or buy them at a discount from the site.  Brands featured include Chanel, Christian Louboutin, Hermès, Jimmy Choo and Burberry, with up to 90% off.  Being preowned, items won't be necessarily perfect but the site make the condition of the product very clear.

Being pre-owned, items will be one-offs and specific sizes, but it's definitely worth having a look at the gorgeous items available.  I love this Alexander McQueen box clutch with its knuckleduster ring detail.  On first impression, it's quite subtle but then one spots the jewelled skull detail and delicate Swarovski crystals to give extra edge and elegance.

The original RRP for this is £1,165 but is £550 from Covetique.

Costella adele Miami Handbag from Bottica

I suspect this is more of a clutch than a handbag, but how fabulous is this adele Miami bag by Costella?  The neon colours are amazing, and it will look great with almost any outfit, day or night.  It's superior quality, being handmade in Los Angeles from lambskin with a waterproof lining.  It's also limited edition - there's only three left!  Totally an investment piece at £104 - although you could make an offer.  It's available from online site Bottica, and new customers can sign up to get £30 off their first order, so even better!  Gorgeous.

Beautiful Bag: Jayne Colour Block Clutch Bag from Boohoo.com

One can never have too many bags and there's a great selection at great prices on the Boohoo.com website.

I really like these Jayne colour block clutch bags.  They are a good size for a clutch, being large enough to carry all of one's essentials, but without being too massive.  They come in a fab range of colours - I really love the bright yellow pictured below, but there's also pink, black and white.  The bright ones will look great with a neutral or black outfit for that burst of colour and the monochrome ones will look sophisticated with any outfit.  Just £16 normally, customers can get an extra 10% off at Boohoo.com till tomorrow with the code 10UK.

Divine Collaboration: Issa for Banana Republic

Banana Republic have just launched a fab collaboration with Issa, a designer label best known for developing gorgeous jersey wrap dresses worn by fashionistas such as Kate Middleton and Nicole Richie.  In keeping with Banana Republic heritage, the designs are inspired by safari - so think leopard print, zebra print and tropical colours.  Launched just yesterday, its popularity means that the range is selling out fast - so do have a look!

My favourite pieces are the dresses and this zebra print, ponte dress is excellent.  The fit and flare style is flattering and elegant, and the style and pattern means it's perfect for any occasion in the summer.  The neutral colours mean that it can be paired with a colourful bag and sandal wedges and look gorgeous!  It's £85 and is still available in sizes 4, 6 and 12 to 18.
I also love this tan and brown leather envelope clutch bag - which would also go with the dress and be perfect for the office!  It's £79.50 but the quality is amazing, the style is classic and it will last season after season.
As ever, new customers can get 15% off purchases just by signing up to the email mailing list, so do take advantage.

Beautiful Bag: Patent Clutch from Banana Republic

I love Banana Republic for its great value, quality wardrobe staples, its amazing collaborations with some fab designers and also the fact that they frequently offer discounts, so it's often easy to pick up a good deal.

They are also having a sale at the moment and I've found this bargaintastic mint green patent clutch, which has been reduced from £49.50 to just £14.99.  Perfect for day or night, it's simple and and sophisticated and will go with almost any outfit!  It's also available in an orange 'autumn leaf' colour.

Fantastic Footwear: Menbur Malubi Peep-toe Heels from Zalando

I can't believe I missed these pastel blue satin peep-toe heels when researching my Great Gatsby Glamour post yesterday!  The sky blue of the shoe adds an element of colour to the neutral shades of the dresses really well and I love the diamante decorative jewel effect on the heel which takes it into a whole new glamourous dimension.  Perfect for the whole 1920's look!

They're currently on sale at Zalando - reduced from £90 to £65 with free delivery.

Team with the matching blue satin clutch for ultimate loveliness!  Don't forget, there's £5 off £50 spends at Zalando till the end of the month too.

The Look for Less: Wedding Party from my-wardrobe.com

Online fashion retailer my-wardrobe.com is full of gorgeous designer pieces and wardrobe staples from the finest women's fashion brands.  They are currently running a promotion (until 26th May) whereby customers can get £50 off £180 or more spends, so it's really worth having a look to see what key investment pieces can be found.

As wedding season is almost upon us, I have created a set on Polyvore suitable for a fabulous summer wedding.  I have gone for a feminine yet edgy look, using the Vivienne Westwood Anglomania Eight botanical print dress as my foundation teamed with some killer accessories.  And when the evening starts to draw in, just throw on this sumptuous J Brand Marianne buttermilk leather and papertwill jacket.  Perfect!

The Look for Less: Summer Wedding Chic

Finally, the weather is improving and my thoughts are turning towards summer parties and weddings. I've been inspired by the lace dress from Planet that I spotted the other day to create an outfit on Polyvore that would be gorgeous for such occasions.  I believe the lilac accessories I have chosen compliment the delicateness of the lace but still add an elegant pop of colour.

It's the Debenhams Blue Cross weekend, which means there is 20% off selected items throughout the store and online - and, as I am so good to you, I have found a code for an additional 10% off!
