Miu Miu Spring/Summer has been filling my dreams of late. The playful qualities of Miuccia Prada’s latest collection add a sense of fun, and appeal to everyones inner child, while the crystals, and beautiful tailoring add sophistication.
Along with many others, I am crazy about the prints, the plaits, the 1960’s styling.
I loved Chloe Sevingy on the cover of Elle, Karen Gillan featured in Grazia,Lindsay Wixon working the adverising, and every editorial that features pieces. I have been raiding the internet for as many pictures I can find to drool over, and share with you- enjoy and i hope it gives you some inspiration!

HOW TO MIU MIU SWALLOW SHOES.
Photographed against the sky- it really is this blue right now!
1. Raid wardrobe for unworn shoes- simple styles = easiest choice.
2. use miu miu magic post for inspiration ( I made a pattern sheet copied from the swallow clutch freehand- the swallows are pretty abstract anyway!)
3.Using a PERMANENT marker pen- start drawing swallow outlines-
(I started with the heel) and colour in- referring to the photos or pattern sheet you have created for spacing and shape.
4.Continue over shoe- make sure birds are varied.
5.The magic should be complete!
I hope these are easy to follow, inexpensive and leave you feeling you could have a go yourself!
I must add PATIENCE and TIME are key to a good result, although hope my steps help.
