Super new Next store opens at The Fort shopping Centre
An invitation to have a sneak preview of one of my favourite stores on the morning it opened was an opportunity that was far too good to miss, so on Thursday 13th June I took a trip to The Fort shopping complex with the lovely Emily Jayne to visit the giant new Next store. The first thing to say is that the new store is truly huge. Covering 25,588sq.ft, it is double the size of the previous Next store on the same complex, and has created a 100 new jobs for the area, which is fantastic news. The store has also created new concessions within the store, the most exciting…

New Ways to have a Girls Night Out and a Girls Night in
The cliche of a girls night out on the town, with lots of wine, heels and clubbing is fun when you’re younger – and even when you’re older, on the odd occasion. But lets face it, it’s gets boring. Night outs on the town always tend to end the same way, either you have to get a taxi back early because the baby sitter needs to be relieved, or you stumble home drunk after some ill advised dancing in a club full of youngsters and suffer through a monumental hangover for the next three days. No one wants to completely shelve the drinking and dancing nights out with the girls…

Duchess Kate drives us dotty with Dalmatian prints
Kate Middleton, the Duchess of Cambridge officially bowed out of the public eye last week, and showed her own inimitable style right up to the end. Looking absolutely beautiful and, yes it is a cliché, but totally glowing, the Duchess again returned to her beloved High Street in a fabulous Dalmatian printed coat from Hobbs, causing the inevitable sell out. The Dalmatian Mac from Hobbs was another smart choice for the Duchess. The shape was again reminiscent of the early 1960s boxy styles favoured by Jackie Kennedy, something that Kate has worn a lot during her third trimester, and again was a simple, but totally elegant look lifted by the…
