The Carrie Diaries – It’s nearly time for the new Carrie
The trailer for the series has been previewed, and January 14th will see ‘The Carrie Diaries’ previewing on US television. This much-anticipated series, telling of the teen years of Carrie Bradshaw, stars Annasophia Robb as the teenage heroine, and also stars British actress, the fabulous Frema Agyeman as an ultra glamorous fashion editor, Larissa, responsible to introducing Carrie to High Fashion. I must admit to loving the new trailer, with its Adam and the Ants theme tune, and with an appearance from the gorgeous Adam himself. There is a really frothy feel to this, sort of Clueless with little elements of Sex and the City peeping through. It all looks…

Boohoo knitb4xmas – simply fabulous
It was the knitb4xmas and all through the house, not a single soul stirred, they were all in the Ice Bar! I attended my first Christmas event last week, and it was simply Sublime. Those wonderful people at Boohoo.com and 7thingsmedia had combined to create the ultimate introduction to Christmas. All the key ingredients for a fabulous Christmas were there, mulled wine and gingerbread cocktails, a festive choir in full, seasonal song, and more Christmas jumpers than you could shake a stick at. Add in a trip to Ice Bar, a genuine, unique experience, where you enjoy your freezing cold drinks at temperatures of minus 2, and you have a…

Duchess of Cambridge arrives in Singapore
The Duchess of Cambridge has arrived in Singapore for the first leg of a Far Eastern tour, and has shown a little touch of Oriental style of her own. Wearing a pale pink, orchid print dress in soft silk from Jenny Packham, Kate paid tribute to her hosts in a beautiful gown that had a decidedly Far Eastern feel to it. This shows that not only is Kate once again paying tribute to her hosts, but that she firmly has her finger on the pulse of fashion, as Oriental style prints are a big news story for the new season. Swan by Clements Ribeiro for Evans featured stunning, oriental themed…

Kate Middleton is feeling blue – again!
It has to be said that the Duchess of Cambridge is rather fond of a touch of blue, it seems to be a colour she wears again and again. Last week she attended an event at The National Portrait gallery wearing a vibrant Stella McCartney cobalt blue shift dress that to me was very reminiscent of the sort of styles worn in the 1960s by Jackie Kennedy. The blue was very vibrant and made a great backdrop for the special Olympic rings necklace she was also wearing that day. It is said Kate wanted to wear Stella to tie in with the designer being the official Olympic kit designer, and…

Friday shopping focus – Boohoo
It’s Friday, it’s the end of the month, and for many of you lovely readers, that means payday. But this week I thought that I would do something that I should do more often, focus on some menswear. This was prompted from a message from an old school friend who asked if I was going to be doing anything for men on the blog, and I had to agree it was high time I focused on all you gorgeous men out there. Boohoo.com have recently started stocking menswear, and currently have a great deal where you can get 20% off when you enter the code MEN20 at the checkout. Here…
