Florals have been around for a while but they’re everywhere this season. You may remember it was one of the key trends I picked out for spring and summer. They’re even being worn head to toe – accessories and all – which may be a little much for me. I’m not normally one for bearing [...]

You know the outfit I posted last week about my new, colourful green shoes? I’m still not over my love for the colour. Are you feeling it yet?

Last week I shared Phoebe’s take on the trends that will be big in weddings in 2013. There’s a lot of common ground between wedding styling and fashion. So what are the big trends we’re likely to be wearing this year? I’ve taken a look back at the styles seen at the SS13 fashion weeks [...]

Suddenly I’m yearning for a fun, full, flared skirt – which is pretty out of character as I’m normally a straight skirt kind of girl. Puffballs – yuck. Tutus – yikes!

Let’s face it, the country’s not feeling flush right now. Those who haven’t got much are always looking for ways to save a few quid, and those not feeling the pinch so much, well, if you buy cheaper you can get twice as much. Are you with me? That said, no one wants to compromise [...]

Perhaps I’m ready for a holiday {or for the British summer to kick in} but I’m being drawn to blue at the moment. When husband and I have time off work we often just throw the tent in the boot, point the car in the direction of the sea and drive, pitching up as near [...]

Tassels are a key trend for spring/summer 2012. Not in your face like, say, pastels and neons, but this season take a close look at bags, jewellery, belts and shoes and you’ll often see them hanging there. Think not of chintzy lampshades and curtain tie backs ~ adding a tassel to your outfit can give [...]
