Paloma Faith in Wolverhampton – Diva Fever.
*This is a revisit of a review from 2010 when Paloma Faith played Wolverhampton Civic Hall. Fashion-mommy’s favourite Diva hit Wolverhampton Civic Hall tonight, and that meant a night out without the Baba. This was actually a much-needed blessing in disguise has Baba has hit the terrible tutu’s (22 months that is) and is refusing to go to sleep, day or night. So Fashion-Mommy threw on her glad rags, grab her leopard print t-bars and red lippy, and went with Hubby to see the wonderful Paloma Faith whilst Nanna and grandad looked after a somewhat truculent Baba. Fashion-Mommy loves dressing up, and has Paloma is one of my favourite style…

Spring Ideas To Revamp Your Bedroom
Spring is notoriously the time when we think about giving our homes a revamp, whether that be inside, or looking at the gardens and the exterior.

Monsoon – New Pieces And Mid Season Sale
March is a funny month when it comes to fashion. Officially the start of Spring, the weather can be changeable to say the least. This week alone we have had sunshine, blue skies, very cold days, rain – lots of rain, and winds that could, quite frankly take your head off. Dressing is not the easiest, and the shops tend to reflect this, with an eclectic range that seems to combine pretty Spring prints with knitwear, basically telling you it is not quite time to put your jumpers away yet. Monsoon is always one of my fave stores on the High Street, due to the fabulous quality of their pieces,…

Birkenstocks – It’s Sandal Season
When people look back at the summer of 2014 they will see it was the year that the humble Birkenstock made a grand return to the fashion fore. The sandal that has always been known for the levels of comfort and support it provided for the wearer has this year been a bonafide fashion item, as the ‘fugly’ pool slider styles became beloved wardrobe foot fodder of a whole host of fashionable celebs. Style and comfort is a delectable combination, and I have to admit, one that I have succumbed to. Celebs love their Birkies My own Birkenstocks When online shoe brand Shoetique asked if I would like to review…
