Actimel helps you #squeezemorein
I’m a huge fan of Actimel Plus. The fabulous, fruity yoghurt drink is the perfect start to the day for someone like me, always in a rush in the mornings and not really a huge fan of breakfast. I always make sure I keep a supply of my favourite Strawberry flavour in my fridge, and am keen to try the new Blackcurrant flavour too. I love the fact that I can also persuade my little boy to drink these too – he seems to enjoy them almost as much as I do, with Vanilla being his favourite. Actimel have a special ethos, they believe that squeezing a lot in is…

Does your Outfit fit the Occasion?
Okay so none of us would wear a crop top to a funeral, high heels to a marathon or a boiler suit to a nightclub, bet there’s no denying the fact that all of us have encountered occasional (or even frequent!) problems with dressing exactly right for the occasion. Here’s a little of the wisdom we’ve picked up over the years which should hopefully help you out in the future… Dressing for a first date Perhaps the number #1 appropriate dressing bugbear for the women of the world is just how to dress for that all-important first date.

New season bags from Spartoo
I always think Spring is the perfect time to invest in a shiny new handbag. There are always lots of new styles available, in a range of new season colours that you almost become spoiled for choice. I love handbags, having far more than I could ever wish to use. But some of them have seen better days. Having a little boy I often end up carrying the most unexpected of items in my bag – this week, I have taken out a tennis ball (a 50p purchase my son insisted on when we were looking around Sports Direct), stickers that are no longer sticky, a half eaten milky bar…

Gudrun Sjoden Women in Art Collection
Exciting times! The new Spring/Summer collections from Gudrun Sjoden have just been launched, and, as you would expect from the lady, they are bright, beautiful and totally wearable. As regular readers are already aware, I fell in love with Gudrun’s designs at a press day a couple of years ago, pulled in by the fabulous quality of the pieces, the use of organic, Eco cotton, and the sheer fun and use of colour they inspired in my wardrobe. This season, my personal favourite from the current collections is the one inspired by ‘Women in Art’. This is an homage to some wonderful Scandinavian female artists, in particular, Vera Nilsson, Suri…

Reviewed – Tonight’s the Night at New Alexandra Theatre
The Rod Stewart musical Tonight’s the Night rocked into Birmingham on Monday night for a week long run at New Alexandra Theatre, and proved to be loud, raucous and most definitely crowd pleasing fun. The story, by Ben Elton, revolves around the plight of young Stuart, a (let’s be honest) harmless nerd with an almighty crush on the sweet Mary. Lacking in all the departments that he thinks attracts the ladies, he makes a pact with the (she) devil to swap his soul for that of his idol, that legendary rocker and undoubted ladies man, Rod Stewart. This works initially and he gets his girl, but having the soul of…
