Reviewed – Ipanema Diamond Sandals
When I was asked to try a pair of Brazilian footwear brand Ipanema anatomic sandals, I was intrigued.

Could Ipanema sandals be comfortable, hardwearing…and glamorous! The answer is an overwhelming YES! The pair of sandals I chose was the Diamond adjustable sandal. I chose these for a range of reasons. The first being that they were just so pretty, with glitter, metallics and diamond stubs all thrown into the mix. I…

Holiday packing – not that much fun is it? Trying to sort outfits for each day, every few minutes getting those suitcase scales out in order to check you’ve not exceeded the baggage allowance (which for some airlines is now as low as 15 kilograms).

Pack Light with Multi-tasking Designer Pieces
If you’re looking forward to a suitcase summer, what to wear on holiday is one of the most important considerations. Packing light can be difficult, especially for extended holidays or if you are headed somewhere with unpredictable weather – picking pieces which tick all the boxes is a must if you want to stay within your budget airline’s luggage restrictions. Pick items which are all colour-coordinated, easy to wash, and can work in both formal and casual situations. Dresses are great for these situations – wear them with tights and a leather jacket when the fog rolls in, with sandals and sunnies at the beach, or with heels and a…

Make a Splash with New Season Swimwear
Classic swimwear is timeless – a black swimsuit, big sunglasses and red lipstick will never go out of style. However, this year’s new season swimwear is fun, playful and (best of all) flattering – many brands are now offering figure-control swimwear that ranges from swimming costumes with tummy-control panels to shaping bikinis with high-waisted retro bottoms. Vintage style is making waves in swimwear with 1950s and pin-up influences, and colour blocking completes its total fashion takeover with a foray into swimwear. Finally, beach cover-ups bring the sheer maxi trend from the city to the sunshine. Vintage-inspired swimwear is everywhere this year. This floral and feminine bikini can be…
