    What to Wear: Casinos

    When the safe, yet repetitive tedium of work and home becomes all too much, the urge to throw on your glad rags, order a taxi and head to the bright lights of town is enormous. Although we all know what’s great to wear for a tip out on the tiles, an increasingly popular late night pastime is somewhat more mysterious when it comes to deciding what to wear: the casino. We’ve all been told scare stories of how degenerative gambling can be- and these stories are indeed true- but enjoying one night of silliness and excitement is perfectly all right every once in a while!

I’m mentioning this because, this season, one of Kate’s most memorable early red carpet looks, from her time with Depp, is a key style inspiration.

    Reviewed – Gina Bacconi Lace and Velvet Dress

    A few years ago I went on a fabulous cruise with my husband and family. There were a couple of formal, black tie events taking place whilst we were on board, events that called for a special evening gown. Now, I’d given birth just 8 months earlier and was not feeling particularly glam or body confident, so I needed a dress that would make me feel beautiful, if only for a night. The brand I turned to was Gina Bacconi, a brand who understand about glamour and can dress curvy figures. I have to say I loved my dress and how it made me feel. Flash forward five years and…

    What to wear on a night out in a casino

    A night at a casino is always a glamorous affair. There is just something about the mixture of money, gambling and champagne that gives it that glorious, decadent edge – just think of Daniel Craig and Eva Green smouldering in Casino Royale. But although the lockdown may have closed the casinos at the moment, the availability of online gaming and gambling means that you can enjoy a virtual night at the casino and really go to town on your look. If you use real money slots nz you can find a whole host of your favourite casino games that you will be able to enjoy virtually, maybe winning a little money and…
