Thomas Sabo celebrate the Jubilee with a bit of London ‘Charm’
I am a huge fan of the German Jewellery Brand Thomas Sabo. I was so excited when they launched their Birmingham Store in November 2010 because I just adore the quirky charms they produce, which just seem the perfect gift for so many occasions. Indeed my best friend Dawn got me a charm necklace when my little boy was born which I totally cherish. Thomas Sabo charms and jewels are, frankly, the perfect gift. So it is no surprise that they have produced such a fantastic collection to help celebrate the jubilee. There are delicate pearl earrings and pendants that are topped with tiny silver crowns.

Next A/W 2012 Press day – Celebrating 30 years of style
I can actually remember the first Next store that opened in my home town. It was the early 1980s, and a Next to Nothing opened in Kings Square, West Bromwich. As a child it always had an air of cool about it, full of what the best dressed would be wearing tomorrow, as well as today. Step forward 30 years, and Next is still a byword for affordable style on the High Street. It seems totally appropriate for a brand that has become a British Icon to hold its 30th anniversary press day in the home of British Fashion Week. Last week, Somerset House became the setting for one of…

Bafta Fashion – The Best Looks
The most glamorous night in the TV calendar is undoubtedly the BAFTA awards. The beautiful stars of the small screen all put on their finery as they battle to win the awards that really matter (sorry TV Quick and Soap Awards but you know I’m telling the truth). This year was no exception. Celebrities like Kelly Brook, Alex Jones, Holly Willoughby and the gorgeous Millie Mackintosh all walked the supremely patriotic red, white and blue carpet. But who’s style seriously impressed? Who wore the dresses that made me go – ooooooh! Here are my choices for best dressed on the night, with a few ideas on how you can get that red carpet look…

60 Glorious years – Are you set for the Jubilee yet?
We are just over a week away from one of the major events of the Summer. Next weekend the party will be in full swing as Queen Elizabeth the 2nd gets set to celebrate 60 glorious years on the throne. Not since Queen Victoria has a monarch ruled for so long, and whether you are a fan of the royals or not, I think we all appreciate that Elizabeth has been an exemplary servant to her role. In celebration, it seems that every retailer is encouraging us to embrace the red, white and blue. This can be in the form of quirky t-shirts, pretty dresses using those most patriotic of…

Cannes – Daytime Classics
The Cannes film festival is always a super glamorous event, and that means for daytime photocalls as well as evening Red Carpet events. This is not an occasion for jeans and t-shirts, the celebrities are never less than dressed up at Cannes. And this gives fashion watchers the perfect opportunity to check out some fabulous looks for daytime. From lace to florals, to Freida Pinto in the cutest two piece, there have been some highly covetable looks that could translate to glamorous daytime occasions like the races, the tennis and weddings. These are my favourite daytime looks so far from Cannes. Kirsten Dunst shows that white can be the perfect shade for both porcelain…
