Celebrity style and product launches featuring Pharrell, Rochelle and Cheryl
Welcome to the first edition of celebrity style for the month of September. A new month, and a new season begins, and this means a whole host of new launches and collaborations, as well as the usual fab celeb looks.

Taking a little inspiration from La Redoute and the Language of Love
A brand new Ad campaign from stylish French brand La Redoute has been launched this week, with a real emphasis on telling your most cherished loved ones how you feel about them. Called ‘The language of love’, it features the rather gorgeous Mr La Redoute, aka French model and actor Florent Thevenot, delivering a series of beautiful messages of love, in French, to a whole range of women, messages that actually come from special people in their lives, from spouses and partners, sons and daughters, even a godmother and a god-daughter. The inspiration for the campaign comes from some rather sad statistics about how often British people actually tell someone…

This season cobalt and teal are looking to be popular choices – a real departure after a summer of pastel shades, whilst there are also an abundance of red…

Online banking is one of the many conveniences that the digital age has brought with it. It enables you to view your balances, make transfers and pay bills, all from your mobile phone or tablet. Whilst there’s no doubt that mobile banking is incredibly convenient, there is a personal touch that’s missing when you log into your account online, especially compared to visiting your local branch. Whilst a lot of banks now offer live chat for their customers, many people find this to be a very impersonal way of having their questions answered, after all, it is still faceless and anonymous, and so, as a result, banks are now looking…
