Introducing Bay Hair And Beauty
Bay Hair And Beauty salon may be the best kept beauty secret in Staffordshire. A one stop destination for all things hair, body, nails and pampering treats, Bay held its first open evening last Wednesday and I was invited to pop along and find out all about what Bay has to offer. I have to say I was seriously impressed. Bay is a seriously beautiful salon, airy and spacious, with glamorous touches like the crystal chandelier thats hangs resplendent in the centre of the room. There are separate treatment rooms where BOTOX, Derma planning, facials and waxing take place. There are a range of express treatments available for those days…

Know Your Luggage – Save Time At The Airport
For many of us, holiday season is coming to an end. We have enjoyed our long summer breaks and are now looking forward to all the things that Autumn brings. But whilst our actual Summer holidays are becoming distant memories, Autumn is still a time for travel, with mini breaks, festivals like Oktoberfest and then the joy of Christmas breaks ranging from the Northern Lights, to those fabulous festive markets, and mini breaks to Disneyland Paris and Lapland.

A tale of murder and intrigue, of dastardly relatives, giant owls and poor mistreated orphans, it is a fabulous story for both adults and kids alike. The theatrical version is currently playing at the Wolverhampton Grand and is both horrifying and delighting its audience. It is devilishly good. Lady Stella Saxby emerges from months in a coma to find her parents dead and herself in the care of her strange Aunt Alberta and her giant owl Wagner. Alberta claims to be caring for her niece in an act of familial devotion, but actually seems more concerned…

Stylish Television – Killing Eve
It has to be said that a psychotic assassin, no matter how pretty or unusual, is a strange choice for a fashion icon. But Villanelke, as played so brilliantly by Jodie Comer in the BBC series ‘Killing Eve‘ is just that. I can’t be the only one watching in horror as she murders person after person and yet thinking ‘where did she get that dress?’ Villanelle’s wardrobe is a total wow. Effortlessly thrown together, this is not the all black wardrobe of Nikita, the last assassin come style icon, but is instead a cool and edgy mixture of top labels and fashion insider favourites, including Burberry (that blue dress she…

Spruce Up That Formal Suit
A suit is possibly the smartest item of attire that a man can wear, but it can also be a boring burden with not much scope for personality originality or style. Many professions still require a formal suit as the uniform of choice in order to set the right example and promote the right image, so it is worth getting a good quality version, particularly if it is going to see a lot of wear, but how can you put your own stamp on a suit? Invest in a silk tie. The natural accessory to a suit is a carefully chosen tie, but this is an accessory that can make…
