Rose Royce from White Stuff – quirky and wonderful
As a huge fan of White Stuff, I am always interested in what they will come up with next. After all, this is the brand that encourages you to wear a tea cosy on your head, so frankly, anything is possible. The latest collection in store is called Rose Royce, but it has nothing to do with ‘Car Wash’. This collection is all about the English Eccentric. Think the Mitford’s, the Queen with her headscarf and wellies at Sandringham, or the hunting and shooting set wearing their pearls and the family jewels over a beaten up Barbour. This is one of my favourite ever collections from White Stuff, full of…

Friday Shopping focus – M&Co 20% off all dresses
The new season has seen M&Co introduce a collection of beautiful dresses that I am finding hard to resist adding to my wardrobe. With influences that stretch from 1960s shifts, to 50s style full skirts and 1980s bodycon, there are dresses to suit every body shape and every taste. There are also dresses in a wide range of colours, including brights, which is fab as this is the time of year which traditionally embraces muted shades and monochrome. This weekend M&Co are offering 20% off a whole range of these wonderful dresses, giving you a nice little treat that also helps you to save the pennies too. As I have…

Have you put on a Peplum yet?
The peplum is nothing new in fashion, but it might have taken you a while to try it out! If you’re anything like me then the strange new silhouette might have seemed a little intimidating at first, but once you try it out you’ll realise it’s the best thing in the world! Everyone from Rihanna to Kate Middleton is catching on to the waist enhancing power of the peplum; it creates a waist for boyish figures and hides bloated stomachs if you’re having an off-day. Peplum dresses in particular create a great hourglass silhouette and look sophisticated as well as on trend – my favourite is the paisley-style printed dress…

Laura Ashley – Vintage gorgeousness with 30% off
Fabulous frocks and exquisite quality are all hallmarks of Laura Ashley, which is why the offer of 30% off is just too good to miss. I’ve been trawling the offers this morning, and have to say how much I love the vintage inspired pieces that Laura Ashley always has as part of its collection. Last season I was besotted by the dress with the beach huts that looked like vintage 50s attire from the wardrobe of Audrey Hepburn, this season I just adore the stamp print dress with the black and red colour way. But there are so many other vintage inspired pieces, from 60s colour blocking, to Alexa Chung…

Lands’ End Mommy Bloggers Challenge – Style on the School Run
I’ve become a huge fan of Lands’ End since I attended their A/W 2012 press day and fell in love with their English Heritage based range. So when I was asked if I wanted to take part in Style on the School Run project I was very excited. The brief of the project was simple, to chose a dress from the current Lands’ End Collection that could be worn on the school run allowing you to strike the correct balance between style and comfort. As I have a three -year old and have just started doing the school run this month, I was really intrigued with this project, and namely…
