Sarenza shoe Ambassador – Living in shoe heaven
Trying to choose just one pair of shoes from Sarenza is like choosing your favourite choccy from the box of Celebrations, there’s just so many varieties, how can you pick just one? But just occasionally your eyes gaze upon a mystical object of sheer gorgeousness,and you fall deeply in LUST. And that is how I feel about my choice. These are little beauties, Burlesque Beauty to give them their full title. As you might have guessed from the gorgeously pretty yet quirky design, these are from Irregular Choice.

Viktor and Rolf launch Spicebomb -Get ready for a sensory explosion
It’s been described as an ‘explosion of the senses’ and ‘an explosive concentrate of masculine sensuality’. Today Viktor and Rolf fans will get the opportunity to experience the exquisite new fragrance that is ‘Spicebomb’ when it is prelaunched exclusively at Harrods. Spicebomb is a male counterpart to the delightful Flowerbomb, long a favourite fragrance of mine, created by master perfumer Oliver Polge. It is Oliver Polge who is also the mastermind behind Spicebomb. And whereas Flowerbomb is, as suggested by the name, a glorious explosion of fragrant bouquets, Spicebomb is a much more heady aroma that includes a cacophony of spices, from the mystical eastern aromas of chilli and saffron,…

This week Kate took a shopping trip to Chelsea’s Kings Road and visited boutique Anonymous by Ross+Bute. She made the most of the sales by purchasing this purple jewel collared v neck top, reduced to £84.50. Of course,…

Cote D’Azur styling from Boohoo
I have to be totally honest, I’ve not always been a big fan of Boohoo.com. I’ve always found the prices to be reasonable, but always felt that the clothes and styling was just a little bit, well, young for me. So I was more than presently surprised when I received some images of the latest collection Monte Carlo, because there were so many things that I was frankly dying to buy. This is a cool collection, chocked full of grown up styles influenced by that most chic of French Riviera resorts. There’s an obvious nautical influence, with a prevalence of reds and blues, along with the obligatory stripes. But there…

Be like Pippa and add bright jeans to your wardrobe
It’s been a cold month! And, at times, it’s also been grey dull and grey, placing us firmly in the bleak Midwinter. But Pippa Middleton has shown that a great way to brighten the day is to instill a bit of colour into your wardrobe by way of a bright pair of jeans. Coloured jeans made a resurgence a couple of years ago, and still show no signs of disappearing. I used to think this trend was a bit rock chick, but Pippa has shown that coloured jeans can also make for a great smart casual look.The great thing about these jeans for me is that you are still keeping…
