When you need a little financial Advice.
The Low Interest rates we have been experiencing over the last few years have proved to be good news for those with a mortgage, but less good news for those with traditional savings held in bank accounts. This has led to a rise in people taking a more active part in financial planning, particularly looking towards securing their future, and also a rise in people seeking professional advice on how best to use and secure their savings. Whether it be pensions you are seeking help with, or investments you want to make, or have made and want to protect and grow, you can always seek the help you need.…

A little black dress and a pair of red shoes
Trends come and trends go, but a little black dress is a timeless classic, destined to be around forever. It is a piece of clothing that will take you to any occasion (even acceptable for weddings these days) and it is something that never looks anything less than chic. We all agree that Coco Chanel was a fashion genius, but maybe her greatest gift to the world was making the little black dress something much more than funeral attire. I don’t think I could count the amount of black dresses that I own, for both every day wear and evening attire. My latest favourite is the Lovedrobe pleated lace dress…

Introducing ‘Stick Em Up’ stickers for the home

Wallpaper is costly and many of us actually prefer the blank canvas that painted walls can provide, we can then add our own decoration and adornment.

Stick Em Up are based in my neck of the woods (Wolverhampton to be precise) and have a…

Love is in the air…but watch those shoes!
It’s Valentine’s Day, the day of love and romance, so I will start the day with a story, a true story, one not for the faint hearted however. A long time ago I went on a date with someone I was rather keen on. It started well with drinks in a local pub, but I couldn’t help noticing there was a pretty nasty smell in the air, one that could only be described as like a wet dog. We moved onto another pub, but I noticed the smell seemed to be following us. And then I noticed my date’s trainers, dirty, wet looking and totally smelly. I think it was…

Grammy Awards 2017 – Key Looks
The Grammy Awards were dominated by two, very glamorous ladies last night, with Beyonce and Adele fighting it out for the biggest awards. The two ladies of song were also eagerly awaited on the red carpet too, although only Adele made an appearance. She was, however, joined by some of the most stylish ladies in music, making the red carpet event interesting to say the least, although, in the case of Katy Perry and Lady Gaga, this was for all the wrong reasons. There were some lovely looks though, with many of them giving us a sense of deja vu. The lovely Tori Kelly had me thinking of Madonna in…
