A few weeks ago I received a mission by email. Very intriguing for a James Bond fan but also it was a fashion mission – even better. “Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to use an Austin Reed white shirt to showcase your personal style. Simply use the white shirt as your […]

It’s very rare that I move away from my standard makeup regime. I know what I like and I’m not one to try out lots of different products each month. One thing I do know, is that I like mineral makeup. Mineral Makeup by Mineralissima Mineralissima is a one stop makeup shop online that hails […]

Summer is coming and the weather is warming up. Soon it will be bikini diet time, getting ready for holidays.

The sea of black and grey clothes on the streets gives way to more delicate and feminine, pastel hues. In short, Spring is here and like every year it brings […]

Regular readers will know that I am not a huge fan of Autumn/Winter fashion, I just can’t get excited by winter coats and roll neck sweaters. Instead I seek solace in accessories and statement jewellery to bring a fresh look to my outfits and deal with my shopping desires. Harry Rocks London Jewellery Harry Rocks […]

This month for my La Redoute Brand Ambassador post, I’m stepping into the world of interiors for a little French Style Made Easy for the home.

So come on, admit it, are you a cleanse, tone and moisturise kind of girl after a night out or a quick sweep with a facial wipe and some eye makeup remover? I have got more focused on my skin as I have (intake of breath) got older, but I still like the easy ways […]

British fashion designer Vivienne Westwood has been showcasing her collections since the 1980’s. With an eccentric dress sense, avant-garde design style and as a much reviewed pioneer of punk entering the fashion world in a new wave of design.
