I'm so excited! As you well know, like any other woman with half a hormone, I love my bags and shoes and yesterday became the proud owner of what I think is possibly my favourite bag EVER!!!
Yes you'll be delighted to know, it's from a range soon to be launched here at QVC called B Makowsky. This is a range of higher end (£100-£200) handbags made from BUTTERY soft leather which are IMMENSELY ELEGANT and down right STYLISH!
So, to your diaries you must go - on the 10th December these bags will be live on air at 6pm, it's a date you can't miss!!
Interestingly, they're designed by the unstoppable success and award-winning designer Kathy Van Zeeland (although they're quite different from her own fashion range). She designed them for her husband's 50th birthday pressie - "here you are darling, you are now a designer label" - what a great gift idea for someone who's difficult to buy for! Now there's an idea... hmmm..!
Also just to say a big thank you to those of you who popped down to West London last weekend to come and say hi, blow kisses etc at the Christmas jazz gig I did. It was fabulous to meet you all and I'm really sorry for those of you who emailed wishing you could be there but were too far away - maybe I'll come near you next time!
Thanks to Richard from South London for sending in this photo of me in action.
See you on the box soon,

Hi Pippa,
Having read your blog about your new handbag I went straight away and bought a grape coloured B MAKOWSKY handbag! WOW!!!!!!! It is fantastic. The leather is soooooooo soft and the design so beautiful. I do think that it is a wee bit heavy but it is so beautiful that it compensates for this. I would love another one now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Many Thanks for being such a lovely and genuine person,
Rita xx
