Sainsburys Christmas in July
Last Thursday, on a rather hot, stuffy day in London, I was strangely transported to a different time, a time we know and love as CHRISTMAS! Yes, the Christmas in July events were in full throttle, but due to actually try to enjoy summer I hadn’t been to any of them this year. But all this changed as I got that festive feeling – starting with a stunning event organised by Sainsburys. Held in the totally beautiful surroundings of Il Bottaccio, Grovesnor Place, Sainsburys introduced us to a real Winter Wonderland, a showcase for everything seasonal, from party wear to gifts, food to flowers, beauty products to Prosecco. There was…

This was the perfect outfit for a more laid back royal visit, especially as Kate later abandoned part of the outfit in order to take part in a game of hockey. I love that ate had opted for national colours of red, white and blue, whilst remaining smart and on-duty. The blazer…

Have a look at what Ellos have to offer.
As a long-time fan of La Redoute, I must admit to being a little bit ignorant when details of Ellos dropped into the inbox. I didn’t know that La Redoute had a sister, so I was really eager to take a look at what sort of things were on offer. What I found is a company that is Sweden’s number one mail-order brand with a very similar ethos to La Redoute in terms of quality and price -i.e the first is kept high even though the second is low. Browsing through the brand I made a mental wish list of a whole host of items, including trend led pieces and…
