I am all about bringing back skilled craftsmanship, into fashion weeks across the globe. I want to inspire women to showcase, luxury items that illustrate their eccentric sense of personal style. Today thanks to my good friends, Ruche & Hues, I am wearing, this handcrafted, embellished bag made in India. I am being hosted by three 5 Star hotels for London Lifestyle and Fashion Week.

I have been pioneering, for sometime now opportunities for brands to showcase their items during my luxury weeks.

After five years as the creator of MenStyleFashion & my blog. The challenge for brands is to create great social influencer campaigns that are still engaging, meaningful and authentic. Often the most successful collaborations are when brands are open to trying something new and taking a risk.

The above bag is from the minaudière collection and it is an embellished stunners. Each piece has gorgeous intricate handwork using 3D embroidery depicting flowers and butterflies. The design is bursting of crystals, stones, beads and pearls. Ruche & Hues minaudieres can be used to doll up your gowns and dresses for that ultimate look. They are ideal for bridal needs, cocktail gala or a red carpet event.

Floral Crystals Leather Minaudière

I chose this vintage inspired  leather minaudière which is fully embellished with sequins, beads and crystals and has been handcrafted with 3D embroidery depicting a cluster of flowers. It comes with an attached leather-trimmed metal sling. I teamed it with Monique Collignon vintage inspired  military suit. I am being hosted by The Montcalm Brewry London City and their staff all wear bowler hats. So I decided to complete the look with it.I have not been to London Fashion Week for almost three years. So when I wore it to my evening events, everyone just loved my complete look. They found the bag very unique and an eye catcher stunner.

I had an exclusive car review with FIAT. Because the bag is small and intricate just like the car. It was a perfect synergy and a very unique way of showcasing the bag and the car.

If you’re out to make a statement, the this minaudière, made out of fully glass beads, crystals and intricately handcrafted with flock of butterflies. Is a bag that will create a nice conversation. The side gusset is made of goat leather, to give the bag a structured look. It comes with an attached ribbon-trimmed and beaded metal sling. It is a cocktail night bag, or can be used for an official dinner gathering. I chose to wear it, to my first catwalk at London Fashion Week.
