Alexa Chung for AG Jeans
She’s done it again. The supremely stylish and unique Alexa Chung launched her new collection for AG Jeans last week and the collection is now available at Selfridges. Totally channeling a 70s vibe which seems to combine Jodie Foster in Freaky Friday with Daisy Duke, the collection is full of a-line mini skirts in denim and suede, dungarees and kick flare jeans, and pussy bow blouses. I actually think if you combined the outfits of both Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster in Freaky Friday, you get Alexa’s collection, sort of grown up glamour and geeky youthfulness all in one! With a social circle that seems to include all of London’s…

My handbag essentials
What do you consider to be your handbag essentials? I don’t mean the usual – money, keys and phone – we all have to carry those, but what are the other things that you always have in your bag? Brioche Pasquier asked me to put together a post on my most important handbag essentials, the things that travel with me, no matter what, and this led to some serious thinking about what I really can’t do without. I change the bag that I use everyday on a regular basis, I may use something smaller on one day, or want to use something that’s a different colour to better match an…

Everyone needs a versatile dress in Summer
What would your definition of a versatile dress be? For me, it is something that I want to have in my wardrobe because I will get lots of wear out of it, for lots of different occasions. It is a failsafe dress, one that doesn’t really need a lot of thought – you can just thrown it on. And, of course, it is super flattering and comfortable, a dress I feel good wearing. The ex White Stuff Mauve Mist printed summer dress from High Street Outlet is the latest versatile dress added to my wardrobe. It has already had three wears, all for different occasions, and I know it will…

Bathtime treats from Treacle Moon
Treacle Moon is a lovely UK brand that you may be aware of from certain supermarkets. (It is stocked in both Tesco and Waitrose). The brand is a lovely range of bath and pamper products, each with a unique, scrumptious smell and it’s own story, one which can be read from the front of the bottle. Treacle Moon is now in its 8th year, and has recently further extended the brand with a whole range of new and delicious sounding flavours. I was lucky enough to be sent a couple of bottles of bath and shower gel in a couple of the new flavours to try out. That Vanilla Moment…
