Flower Power at Phase Eight
When it comes to floral prints and fashion, there is always a bit of a love/hate relationship. The print is undoubtedly popular, particularly when Summer comes around, a natural choice for weddings, race days and ladies days. But it also has the reputation for being a safe and staid choice – let’s face it, if we are talking about sexy or sophisticated, flowers may not be the first print that comes to mind. Yet this would be a shame, because floral prints can be so much more than the print your grandma would love to see you wearing. Beautiful, hot red carpet looks have taken the deepest of red flower…

Octer – The online marketplace
I love shopping. If it can be classed as a hobby, then it would certainly be mine. I’m happy to spend hours walking around shops, either looking for exactly what I want, or just doing a bit of window shopping. I also love online shopping, finding the sort of unusual stuff that you only seem to be able to find at online boutiques, or enjoying the bargains that come when you use voucher codes sites or sign up to brand emails. Yes, shopping makes me happy. But many people hate shopping, finding it a chore. Even searching online is something that takes a lot of time and effort, trying to…

Get the Celebrity look with Gigi Hadid, Olivia Palermo and terry terry
My latest celebrity style post has a real taste of summer about it, as it features the hottest new celebrity loved sunglasses from Quay Australia, and the Kendall +Kylie for Topshop beach collection, which was launched last month and is already seeing some pieces totally sold out.

This post has beautiful maxi dresses, as worn by Holly Willoughby and Lydia Bright. Both are high street pieces, from River Island and Miss…

Celebrity sandal style with Brantano
The opportunity to wear sandals for every single occasion is definitely one of my favourite things about Summer. There are just so many gorgeous styles out there, and after a Winter, and Spring of being bundled up in thick socks and boots, my feet totally appreciate the feeling of freedom that wearing sandals brings. When it comes to sandals, my feet are firmly planted in the flat camp. I do have a pair of 70s style Clarks wedges which I love with a passion, but, in general, I live in flats – Havaianas, Ipanema and pretty jeweled styles that can be teamed with a dress or jumpsuit for an evening…

Style Focus – Bella Hadid
It’s probably safe to say that Gigi Hadid is still the better known model and sister, especially after her relationship with Zayn Malik. But when it comes to flawless style, I think younger sister and fellow model Bella is absolutely killing it at the moment. With her beautiful, slightly gothic/Morticia looks (think young Angelica Houston crossed with Rooney Mara), and her pared back style which seems to feature all colours, as long as they are a shade of black, Bella has been quietly making fashion waves and winning plaudits for her choices. Bella is one half of a stylish duo, with her boyfriend The Weekend, proving to be perfect foil…
