Celebrity Get the Look featuring Lucy Watson, Kelly Brook and Samantha Barks
Summer is finally here, and I sit here writing this and nursing my sunburn. So thank goodness there are so many fabulous celebrity looks to take my mind off my rather sore shoulders. For the celebrity spots this week are rather gorgeous to say the least. We have a little bit of Reiss in the form of new style crush Samantha Barks, who seems to be showing true style credentials with brilliant look after brilliant look. Kelly Brook shows that no-one can wear a form fitting dress like she can, showcasing that body in a stunning lace paneled dress, also from Reiss. We also have the perfect pair of summer…

Duchess Kate and Jessica Ennis bring glamour to the Sports Personality Awards
The Sports personality of the year awards are always a clear sign that it is nearly Christmas, and this year the ceremony was more exciting than ever. As well as having so many candidates deserving of winning the title after the greatest sporting year for Britain in living memory, the ceremony also heralded the first public engagement for the Duchess of Cambridge after her recent stay in hospital. Kate looked incredibly elegant and glossy in an emerald-green, v necked gown from Alexander McQueen that had a rather sexy front split detail. The slightly puffed sleeves, fitted Cumberband style waistband and long skirt were demure, and the colour, emerald-green, has been…

I didn’t expect to like her, in fact, I was fully expecting to hate her when she was announced as the X Factor 4th judge, but Nicole Scherzinger totally won me over on the X Factor this year and became one of my new style crushes in 2012. Nicole is so beautiful, she looks ‘Schermazing’ in just about everything, but she is also warm, quirky and a whole lots of fun. She also proved to be an excellent mentor, with two of her acts making the final, and James Arthur crowned the eventual, and much deserved winner. I actually thought Nicole had a shaky style in her wardrobe choices, hating…

A Selfridges Christmas – ‘Not your Usual Christmas’
Last week I was lucky enough to attend my second Selfridges Christmas Bloggers event in that wonderful store in Birmingham. Meeting up with so many of my favourite bloggers from the Midlands, whilst enjoying the chance to look at upcoming trends and current in-store obsessions, this is always a night to treasure. If you then add in a gorgeous meal at Itihaas Indian Brasserie and a makeover at Sisley, you get a night that is truly one to remember. Here are some of my key highlights from a wonderful night. 1 Shoes to die for… 2. You can never have too many bags! 3. Gorgeous Garments 4. Blogger fun…

Duchess of Cambridge’s Winter Warmers
What a couple of weeks it has been for the Duchess of Cambridge. Last week she was the picture of health as she visited Cambridge and then Scotland, even playing a quick game of hockey. This week we get the announcement of her pregnancy and then the shock news she is in hospital suffering from a debilitating form of morning sickness. Happily, she emerged today looking happy and healthy and as stylish as ever, so now I feel it’s time to review Kate’s recent wardrobe choices.
