Christmas is coming to Hotel La Tour
Hotel La Tour is the newest must visit destination in Birmingham. A stunning, ultra modern, landmark building on the Brummie skyline, Hotel La Tour offers a beautiful setting for luxurious dining. So I was very excited last week when I received an invite from my lovely friend and fellow blogger Emily Jayne to sample their latest afternoon tea offering which promised a real taste of Christmas. It was the coldest and windiest day imaginable last Thursday, but Hotel La Tour soon raised the spirits – it was in the middle of being decorated for Christmas and looked simply beautiful, like those gorgeous New York hotels you always see in festive…

Lush launch ‘FUN’ with a whole lot of fun
I was invited to a special event in Covent Garden last week, when one of my fave beauty stores Lush, launched a brand new product called ‘FUN’. This proved to be a fab event and a whole lot of fun, although I really wished I had taken my little boy Joe along to take part in the fun. ‘FUN’ is a brand new wonder product, aimed at children, but really for children of all ages. Imagine a plastacine/playdoh that your child could happily use in the bath, and then use to wash both their hair and body and you have the general gist of FUN. It is the ideal product…

Christmas treats from White Stuff
White Stuff can always be relied upon to think of something cute and quirky for the festive season. Christmas 2012 shows that this continues to be true, with whimsical designs and prints containing owls, horses and soaring birds. along with frosted trees and cloudbursts. Add in the cutest of names (who could resist pyjama bottoms called Figgy pudding?) and you have the perfect, cosy Christmas attire. Here are some of my absolute faves from a great range.

Celebrity Style round up featuring Kate Moss, Ellie Goulding and Millie Mackintosh.
There have been some really great celebrity looks this month, with celebs once again showing that the perfect wardrobe is a good blend of High Street pieces and designer names. On the designer front, there was a double whammy at this year’s Children in Need, with both Tess Daly and Sarah Harding opting for the Project D Itala dress, albeit in different metallic shades. Kate Moss showed her style credentials in animal print from Marc Jacobs in a midi length, a style you can get for less on the High Street at the moment, whilst the lovely Sara MacDonald, Noel Gallagher’s better half, showed that the Gatsby look is definitely…

Reviewed – Olivia Accessories Art Deco Bangle
One of the greatest things about being a blogger is that you sometimes get offered the opportunity to review an item from a site you may have been unfamiliar with. This is what happened to me when I was asked to review an item from Olivia Accessories – a fashion jewellery and accessories site. This site is simply choked full with beautiful items that would make the perfect gift for Christmas, the perfect accessory for your little black dress, or just a payday treat after a tough week at work. The piece I chose was the stunning Pierced Art Deco Crossover bangle. This was something that appealed to me as…
