M&S – Picks from the Press Day and seasonal treats for Christmas
The Marks and Spencer press day has become one of the key events when looking towards a new season on fashion. Held at the beautiful No1 Marylebone, this is always an event not to be missed, one that promises to be full of the designs you will be wearing next season. The Spring/Summer event took place a couple of weeks ago and I was lucky enough to be sent an invitation. The ranges were organised under evocative titles, ‘White Out’ offered crisp, clean, minimal lines in the colour that is always most perfect for accompanying a suntan in Summer.

And, let’s be honest, when we talk about perfect sparkling bling, can we think of anything better than a gift from Swarovski UK? One of the best places to find an enormous selection of…

Discovering new design with Carnet de Mode
A few weeks ago I discovered the wonderful world of Carnet de Mode, and the host of new design ideas and talented designers it was now giving a virtual catwalk too. I blogged about the concept on this site (you can read that post here) and how I believed it was a truly great idea that was a way of supporting fledgling designers who were not always in a position to host their own catwalk collections, or even their own websites, but still had great new products to introduce to the world.I also loved the idea that fashionista’s and consumers could show their support for new design by getting involved…
