Vehicular Style Tips for the Fashion Conscious Mom
As a modern parent, driving is almost a necessity. Although it’s possible to get by in life without having regular access to a car, it will certainly make things a lot harder if you don’t. Of course, this problem can be easily remedied with a quick brush up on your driving theory knowledge and a practical test, but once you’re legally able to sit behind a steering wheel and drive, that’s when things become tricky. Like all fashion conscious mothers, style is important. However, when it comes to transporting your children you’ll probably find that style becomes locked in a battle with another “S”: safety. Although we all want to look good…

New Look Press Day S/S 15
Today there has been snow, and I have to say the appearance of the white stuff has got me thinking more and more about Spring. How I long for Spring – light nights, warm days, cut grass and daffodils, all things I love and dream about on these cold, frosty mornings. But as I can’t have Spring for some time yet, I will turn to the next best thing – Spring Fashion, with a focus on some of the most anticipated lines from high street fave New Look. The New Look press day took place at the end of November, on a dull drizzly day. I felt a little unwell…

Golden Globes Great Gowns
Awards season started properly last night with the Golden Globes, which saw all the beautiful people out in force on the red carpet. The Golden Globes is always a seriously glamorous night, second only to the Oscars in terms of importance and star power, so, as to be expected, there were some seriously glamorous looks to be seen on the red carpet, with some colour and texture trends pointing the way to what we may see at the Oscars and Bafta’s. It has to be said, there were some underwhelming looks. I hated the 1970s bridesmaid dress worn by the usually wonderful Kiera Knightley (I’m blaming pregnancy hormones for that…

Rita Ora joins the judging panel of The Voice
If ever there was a lady who divides fashion, it is Rita Ora. Just this week the singer, who is joining the judging panel of BBC’s ‘The Voice’ tonight, was the reason for 100’s of complaints over the low cut outfit she wore on The One Show, a programme shown well before the watershed. Now the lady is going to become a staple part of Saturday night as she replaces Kylie Minogue as the female judge on ‘The Voice’. It is going to be interesting to see what she wears come the live shows. I’m a bit of a fan of Rita because I thinks she has so much fun…

My first fashion wishlist for 2015
Before I start to talk about my first fashion wishlist for 2015 (I’m thinking of doing regular updates as the new season lines start to arrive in store) I think I need to explain that this is a wishlist – rather than a what I really need list. Confused? Well let me explain. A recent trawl through my wardrobe has shown there are some real gaps in the clothes I own. I have nowhere near enough jeans and trousers, as proved as I have tried to grab for these for the rather cold school run, and have then discovered they are all in the wash. I really need a good…
