The Strathberry handbag carried by Prince Harry’s fiancée has been crowned the new It bag.

Stepping outGiuseppe Zanotti’s spring/summer 2018 collection of shoes for women conjures up images of poolside parties along the French Riviera. The designs are playful — just take a look at the Vanessa sandal (pictured), which has ankle straps adorned with Swarovski crystals. Pretty in pink
Breguet’s limited edition Classique Phase de Lune Dame 9085 in pink would make a special gift for a loved one. Its 30mm bezel in white gold is festooned with graded shades of diamonds and pink sapphires. The timepiece houses the mechanical self-winding Calibre 537L, which has long since proven its worth in terms of both reliability and precision. The satin-finished alligator leather strap also appears in graded shades of pink. This delicate hue imbues the timepiece with a softness and lightness reflected in the mother-of-pearl dial, whose white tones and iridescent shimmer give it an ethereal feel.
Fit for a queen
The newest collection from Tiffany & Co is inspired by the Tiffany Keys design. The fleur-de-lis motif has expanded into its own collection of bracelets and rings. A symbol of royalty, the fleur-de-lis combines femininity and elegance. The collection is available in 18-carat white, yellow and rose gold, and each round brilliant diamond is matched for proportion and set for an added sense of dimension of this regal symbol.
