OK, we here at RT are summer obsessed right now, so here are two of our favourite bags Bottega Veneta courtesy of Net-a-porter. Can't you just see yourself carrying one of these to the beach (we don't recommend you do, they are both over £2000)?

Shoes
Flicking through some of the new ad campaigns/runway shows/Net-a-Porter etc, it very much seems as though sky-high heels are well and truly the fad of the moment. Now, we want to know what you guys who read this blog (if there are any of you out there) think about excessive height. Are they called 'killer' for a reason, or do they make you feel foxy? Discuss, as we'd love to know what you guys think.
Gucci Ad Campaign
Well here it is. Gucci is not reverting to the old supermodels like ALL the other fashion houses seem to be doing, staying with long time favourites Natasha Poly and Lily Donaldson (plus a new girl who we don't recognise). We love the lush colours that Frida Giannini is sporting.
Gucci S/S 2009
The first two dresses we here at RT are in love with. We also love Frida Giannini's colourful take on the safari look, which was big last summer as well. A fantastic start to the year. We will also try to upload the pictures from the ad campaign featuring Lily Donaldson (who is sporting the first and fourth looks in these pictures).

Summer 2009 Trends
Summer may still be a long way off for many of you out there, but here are a few essential fashion tips:
DRESS
We all need a perfect summer dress. Be a bit more daring this year by going for a sheer, floaty, floor-length dress to sweep the sands. Embrace colour, but don't make it too garish Don't overaccessorize this look, possibly just a wooden bangle or two. For a swimsuit, go for a either a plain black or white bikini or swimsuit. Avoid Pucci-print kaleidoscope swimsuits, as much as they are iconic. For evening, the LBD doesn't seem to be dying down after the Christmas party rush, but we recommend you, again, embrace some colour for an evening dress. Anna Sui and Chloe are perfect places to go for this.
MAKE-UP
Don't cake your face in make up. We recommend a light slick of lip gloss (red if you're feeling bold) and mascara. That's all. Avoid bronzer AT ALL COSTS, as amongst naturally sun-kissed people you will be recognised as fake (even if you do use a good one)
HAIR
Keep your hair natural. No bold colours, just dark golds and truffle browns. Always keep it loose for day, and swept into a bun for evening, possibly with a coiffe detail.
SKIN TONE
Get sunkissed, but not sunsnogged. A light dose of sun can pep the cheeks and make colours such as soft pinks and yellows far more easy to wear.

Dior S/S 2009
Here are some of the photos from Dior's Spring/Summer 2009 look. We're not too bowled over by this look, and we hope Galliano improves soon. We miss that decadent style he had earlier this decade and this look seems a bit sterile. However, the handbag in that last picture is something to be noted
