Leighton Meester for Nelly
She is the gorgeous style icon who starred in one of the most talked about ‘fashion-forward’ TV programmes of all time. She is also the lady who has just married Seth Rogan aka Adam Brody. And now she is sharing her fashion expertise in a newly launched range for Scandinavian fashion giant Nelly. Yes, it could only be that fabulous Gossip Girl, Leighton Meester. The Leighton Meester collection for Nelly launched yesterday, and is full of pieces you could well imagine being part of Leighton’s own wardrobe.

Finding Online Bespoke deals and discounts
Unlike the High Street, where sales tend to be seasonal (and often full of rubbish and damaged goods to be honest) there always seems to be a decent sale or discount offer happening somewhere on the internet. Top High Street Stores offer huge savings and one day promotions where you can grab yourself a bargain, but you have to know what is happening and when, as these are often limited to just a few days. That is why Barclaycard Bespoke Offers is a great site to bookmark and join. Bespoke offers is a new service from Barclaycard where you can find offers that are bespoke for you. You don’t need…

I freely admit to wearing shapewear. I am most definitely in the plus size category when it comes to clothes, and my key problem area is my stomach. I always carried weight here, even when I was…

Reviewed – Scarlett & Jo Print Asymmetric 2 piece dress
The lovely folks at Scarlett & Jo are celebrating the one year anniversary of the brands launch with a fabulous new collection, and I have been very honoured to have been sent one of the hero pieces of the collection for review. (You can see and read about the new range here.) The Scarlett & Jo Print spot asymmetric 2 piece midi dress (phew! – quite a mouthful!) is a new concept for the brand, because it is a two piece dress, where both the pieces could also be worn separately to create totally different looks. The first layer is a great, midi length, sleeveless jersey dress, fabulously stretchy and…

Wallis Definitives Collection – Monochrome Magic
I love colour in my wardrobe, but sometimes it is good to see the world in black and white. And that may be why I am in love with the latest collection from Wallis. Called the ‘Definitives collection’, this is a range of black and white pieces designed to be mixed and matched for the ultimate in minimalist, elegant styling. What is the collection like? This collection seems to be inspired by the Kings of minimalism- Calvin Klein and Ralph Lauren, with lots of clean lines, sheer panels, and some great jackets. Add in some elements of Donna Karan and Victoria Beckham (the lace insert dress reminds me of the…
