Jane Eyre At The Rep, Birmingham – Delicious Gothic Melodrama
You have to feel for Jane Eyre, one of the most unlucky heroines in classic literature. Her life was one of low after low, orphaned soon after birth, hated by the family who took her in but saw her as a cuckoo in the nest, sent away to a school where she was treated brutally, losing her best friend to consumption and ill treatment, and when she finally breaks out as a governess and falls in love with her boss, the mysterious, and let’s be honest, rather strange Mr Rochester, her plans for true love are thwarted by the maniacal tendencies of the first Mrs Rochester, not so safely locked…

But there is another kind of book, one that is meant to be loved and cherished, books that are far too beautiful to sit…

Making Savings on your Style Books Wishlist

I try to get at least a bit of a lie-in, and then I curl up on the sofa with a cup of tea and one of my favourite style books, the sort of book where you can just pour over the pictures and not even have to stretch to reading if you just want to be lazy. #saturday #reading Seems apt as we welcome a new #flotus.#books #bookgeek #bookblogger #fashion #style #powerdressing #instastyle #instafashion #fashionphoto #fashionphotography #fashionaddict #brumbloggers #brumblog A post shared by Emma Iannarilli (@fashionmommywm) on Jan 21, 2017 at 2:46am PST One of the places…

Be a stylish wedding guest
2017 is a very special day for my family as it is the year my little brother gets married. His fiancee Natalie will make a honest man of him this July in the beautiful, sunny surroundings of Cyprus. I am getting very excited already, not just at the thought of two weeks in Pathos, or even at the idea that my youngest sibling will finally be married, but at the idea of getting very dressed up for the wedding. Because who doesn’t love getting dressed up! There used to be hard and fast rules about how you dressed as a wedding guest. Hats seemed to be obligatory, as did pastel…
