It’s Friday, which must mean it is time for another celebrity ‘get the look’ round up. Last week I was sitting on a Welsh beach so I had plenty of time to browse magazines looking at all the latest looks from a whole host of celebrity ladies (and one very cute royal baby.)

Feel Good Clothing
by evocateur We all have favourite items of clothing; things that we keep year in, year out, regardless of whether they’re still in fashion or whether we even ever wear them anymore. The flip side can be true as well, though. Sometimes, you might open the wardrobe and see a suit that you wore for an interview, when things went badly and you didn’t get the job, or a dress you wore on a date disaster. It’s not unusual for people who have gone through a break-up or separation to tear or cut up clothes that remind them of happier times; and doing this can bring about a sense…
