Pink Clove Black Floral Printed Wrap Dress
A wrap dress is a wardrobe staple that no respectable closet should ever be without. Suitable for wearing for work and for more dressy occasions, the wrap dress has been practical, versatile and stylish ever since the remarkable Diane Von Furstenberg first designed her eponymous printed version in the early 1970s. Plus size range Pink Clove has made the wrap dress one of the mainstays of its collections, adding at least one new design each season. I was recently sent the gorgeous black floral printed wrap dress to review, and have to say it is one of the most comfortable and easiest dresses that I have ever worn. Featuring an…

I think we’ve all had the problem. You get up in the morning and decide to have a shower before you get ready for work, but when you turn on the shower the water is little more than a splutter or trickle, and, frustrated, you abandon the idea. Or maybe you’ve come in from work and decided to take a relaxing bath, but found the taps are refusing to give you an egg cup full of hot water, let alone a tub full.

New season coats and Jackets from F&F
Spring is just around the corner, but that doesn’t mean we can abandon our coats and jackets just yet. Even when the sun starts to shine, there is sometimes a real chill in the air, and the evenings, although becoming lighter, can still feel cold. But luckily, the new season also brings a new range of coats and jackets which help us to leave behind the heavy wool and fabrics and think about lighter, brighter times. F&F have some really great outerwear both in store and online at the moment, featuring designs like the duster jacket, Barbour style quilted jackets and a range of blazers that incorporate both colour and…
