Reviewed – Pandora from John Greed
One of the biggest names in jewellery today is Pandora. The creators of beautiful bracelets and charms has recently been unveiled as the official sponsor for the Girls Aloud 10 year anniversary tour, with each girl designing a very special bracelet to commemorate this special event. So, when I was approached by John Greed, the leading UK stockist of official Pandora jewellery, with a view to reviewing a Pandora bracelet and charms, I was, of course, very interested. I consider myself to be a jewellery aficionado, particularly when it comes to bracelets, but am quite embarrassed to say that I didn’t own a Pandora bracelet. I was interested to see…

Vivienne Westwood and Betsey Johnson – still style mavericks after all these years!
A revisit of a post from 2011. We have just seen the end of London Fashion Week, following hot on the heels of New York fashion week, and it is safe to say that two of the brightest, most interesting Autumn collections come from two style mavericks who first came to our attention in the 1970s. Both Vivienne Westwood and Betsey Johnson are at an age when they could relax and put their feet up, instead, they are continuing to push fashion boundaries. Here are some of the highlights of their recent collections. Alice in Wonderland meets the Royals! As can be expected of the woman who was at the…

What can we do to showcase our best assets in the best possible light?

Reviewed – The Charlaine Leopard Print Sandals from K Jacques
I have a pair of sandals that I have been wearing to death lately. With a wooden heel and a glorious animal print leather design, they are both glamorous, elegant, and not only can I work in them, I can dance the night away. The shoes in question are the Charlaine Leopard Print sandals from the Saint Tropez company K Jacques, who have been producing hand made, bespoke shoes and sandals since 1933. K Jacques often have an association with the most stylish of sandals, with their designs being worn by the likes of Kate Moss, Emma Watson, Diane Kruger and Cheryl Cole. Their leather and suede designs, and the…

Spring Ideas To Revamp Your Bedroom
Spring is notoriously the time when we think about giving our homes a revamp, whether that be inside, or looking at the gardens and the exterior. One of the most important rooms in the home is our bedroom – we spend an awful not of time there, and it should be a place of comfort and relaxation, whilst also having the stamp of our personal style. If you are fortunate enough to have stayed in five star luxury accommodation, you will hopefully have had an experience that would be wonderful to re-create in your own bedroom. It needn’t cost a fortune to have a little luxury in your boudoir, here…
