Friday shopping focus -Designer at Debenhams key sales picks
For my Friday shopping focus this week I thought I would start with a little look at Debenhams, who are holding a special three day sale. Everything across the store and online has some level of discount, making this the perfect weekend to treat yourself, or pick up something that you have needed for a long time (the wants versus the needs!). In particular, you can find some really fantastic offers on new lines from the ‘Designers at Debenhams’ section. This collection has long been a great place to source quality pieces and designs, with designers like Jasper Conran, Betty Jackson, Ben De Lisa and Marios Schwab all producing fabulous…

White Stuff Emma Bag….and why you should abandon trousers…
A really lovely, and totally true story. I’ve long been a fan of White Stuff, literally since they opened their first Birmingham store a few years ago, and so I always looks out for their newsletters with a real anticipation of what they will contain. A few weeks ago I got an email announcing the arrival of the ‘Emma’ bag, and have to admit that I feel in love immediately. After all, I’m sure Lana Del Rey and Jessica Stam could agree that having a bag named after you is a rather lovely thing. (ahem). I tweeted White Stuff, saying how I was going to have to get the…

Colour Pop shoes from Clarks
As all our fashion heroines know, a great way to add colour to your wardrobe is with a pair of colour pop shoes. Even the dullest outfit can be transformed with a totally standout shoe, and it is a great way to inject brights into your wardrobe if you wouldn’t feel confident wearing a red dress, or a neon pink top. From Kate Moss to Beyoncé, stylish ladies everywhere have been adding a splash of colour in the shoe department for a long time. You can colour match, or colour clash, or dress down in black and add a colour splash. (A poet and I really didn’t know it). Clarks…

Valentine’s Day ideas from Pavilions and The Fort
Next week will see the most romantic day of the year arrive. Valentine’s Day is all about hearts and flowers, and showing someone how much you love them. But, if we’re honest, men don’t always get it right. My mom once received a rather ugly fleecy dressing gown, a good friend once got a bottle of Oil of Ulay and a foot scrubber. Men do often need a guiding hand to point them in the right direction, and turning pages over on the designer bags in magazines doesn’t always achieve the desired effect. But fear not. Fashion-Mommy has got a fab selection of ideas that are available from two of…

Celebrity style featuring Cheska Hull, Olivia Munn and a baby bump special
To celebrate the start of what I hope is going to be a fabulous February, I thought I’d start the month with some super celebrity get-the-looks. And this edition of Celebrity style features what is bound to be a huge trend in the coming months – dressing the baby bump. It seems everyone and her sister is pregnant at the moment (my sister, a cousin and a close friend included – and. no, don’t feel in the slightest bit broody myself) and that with one of those expecting being the lovely Duchess of Cambridge, we can be sure that maternity fashion is going to be more scrutinised than ever. This…
