Searching for the Perfect Spring Dress
For a few days at the end of last week, and the beginning of this, I got that Spring feeling. The sun was shining and the sky was blue. I was wearing a blazer rather than a heavy overcoat, and I had started to think about Summer, planning a holiday, musing about getting some tickets for a festival (I really fancy going to the Isle of Wight festival this year and combining it with a bit of a holiday for Hubby and Joe too), and generally imagining myself spending copious amounts of time on a sun lounger drinking Pimms! I also started thinking about my wardrobe too, and in particular,…

Valentine’s Day ideas from Pavilions and The Fort
Next week will see the most romantic day of the year arrive. Valentine’s Day is all about hearts and flowers, and showing someone how much you love them. But, if we’re honest, men don’t always get it right. My mom once received a rather ugly fleecy dressing gown, a good friend once got a bottle of Oil of Ulay and a foot scrubber.

The Adele Dress from Swan By Clements Ribeiro
When I was asked to pick my favourite piece from the Swan collection by Clements Ribeiro for Evans, I must admit to being truly spoilt for choice. I adore so many of the looks, including the beautiful Salome dress, which is still my true favourite, but I also found myself wishing that I tried on the Grace dress when I’d had the opportunity at the Bloggers day, and wondering if this dress might be the perfect every occasion dress for the festive season. The background to the Grace dress is simple. Clements Ribeiro are one of the singer Adele’s favourite design duos, so much so that she asked them to…

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…
