Alexandra Burke and her new friend Lily
Posted Feb 10, 2009
It's tough at the top (we know). Never knowing who to trust and who's spilling your secrets all over town. Therefore it came as no surprise to see winner of the U.K's X Factor, Alexandra Burke clutching Lily - the D&G bag.
You see what is a-b-s-o-l-u-t-e-l-y necessary when becoming a huge star about town is somebody or something that stays quiet - keeps it zipped. With Lily and her numerous zips - there are no worries your private bits and pieces will be escaping all over town. Here at Swide we'd already decided Lily would be our must-have of the season - and seeing Alexandra with it simply comfirms our love for Lily even more.
