New Season florals from George at Asda
When it comes to supermarket style, George at Asda always seems to have me filling my trolley with something other than milk. (Topical joke there folks.) Affordable, fresh and constantly updated, George at Asda never ceases to amaze people when they comment positively on your outfit and you say ‘George’, and then quote them a ridiculous price. Add into the mix the fab kids clothes and you have plenty of reasons to be doing that pocket slap. The George A/W press day showed off some great new pieces that are now starting to hit stores. 70s trends and boho pieces with lots of paisley prints are the order of the…

Silver & Grey Glamour At Dorothy Perkins
In the 1990s, there was no more glamorous couple than Johnny Depp and Kate Moss. I’m mentioning this because, this season, one of Kate’s most memorable early red carpet looks, from her time with Depp, is a key style inspiration. The simple grey shift dress was elegant, chic and remains totally timeless, and this Autumn the grey shade that totally made the dress is going to be a new style crush (along with silver shades) when it comes to a little bit of evening glamour. Grey is most definitely the new black. It has always had a place in the wardrobe as part of a workwear suit. Most of us…

Gorgeous Summer weddings
I love a summer wedding, there is nothing as romantic or pretty in my view as a summer bride. Summer 2015 has seen brides of the celebrity variety in abundance. Declan Donelly married his manager Ali Astall, Film Director Guy Ritchie married his long time partner, the model Jacqui Ainsley, whilst Beatrice Borromeo won the award for most wedding dresses when she married Pierre Casiraghi and become a Monagasque Royal. Each lady chose a very different style for her special day. Beatrice wore 4 different gowns for the official ceremonies and blessings, but my favourite was the soft pink Valentino gown that was both unusual and exquisite in its romance.…

BetterVouchers.com – finding the best deals for you.
Question: Have you ever decided to buy something and then searched the internet for a voucher code? The answer is probably yes. Next question. Have you ever searched the voucher code sites and ended up really disappointed – no real offers, directory listings that are being advertised as ‘offers’ or ‘offers’ that you can find when you go shopping anyway – things like free returns or free delivery? I’m guessing the answer is probably yes once again. It is so frustrating that my voucher sites fill their pages full of offers, discounts and bargains that are anything but. This is why I am so impressed with the ethics and ethos…

Stylish television – Partners in Crime
It seems that Sunday nights at the BBC are determined to transport us back in time to the 1950s. Hot on the heels of The Outcast, we have ‘Partners in Crime’, based on Agatha Christie stories about Tommy and Tuppence Beresford, originally set in the 1920s, but moved forward in time to the 1950s. Jessica Raine plays Tuppence Beresford, a glamorous accidental detective with a wardrobe to just about die for. Partners in Crime may be set in the 1950s, but the wardrobe bares little resemblance to the full skirted prom style dresses and floral prints of The Outcast. (You can read all about the fashion of that series here.)…
