The immortal words “Does my bum look big in this” are what every man dreads. Well, with magic pants you may not have to worry so much.
Top British designer Maria Grachvogel came up with the magic pants trouser range, with an eye to giving ladies a lift in the derriere department. i.e the special fabric used has the effect of making large bottoms appear smaller.
Whilst the retail price of £375 ($750) is a little rich for my blood, the magic pants have proved a real hit with the likes of soul singer Mica Paris, actress Emma Thompson and ex super model Marie Helvin.
Maria Grachvogel is quoted as saying:
“Normal trousers never seem to fit on the waist or the hips and are incredibly unflattering. With magic pants I have dispensed with pockets and side seams, which is why they fit so well and give the illusion of a slim silhouette.”

One of the most simple and understated clutch bags on the market has to be this one from Marc Jacobs:
The perfect accessory to your cocktail dress.
Flannels Fashion retail this little number for a bargain £120 ($240) and describe it as follows:
“Dark brown soft leather lovely clutch purse with zip top. The brass finish disc on the front of the purse is embossed with By Marc Jacobs. The interiors fully lined with fixed credit card holder and zip coin compartment.”
There’s talk amongst the fashionistas that these Miu Miu Jeweled Heel Pumps might be the must have shoes of the year. Personally, I think their an absolute delight and not outrageously expensive at £315 ($630).
The design is hewn from red patent leather, with a 100mm heel embedded with Swarovski jet beads.
