Zatchels Pop Up shop opens in House of Fraser, Birmingham
Saturday saw the biggest fashion event on Birmingham’s social calender when Style Birmingham Live took place. There were fashion shows galore all over the city, and beauty events in most of the department stores. But by far the most anticipated event for handbag lovers was the launch of the Zatchels Pop Up Shop in House of Fraser. Zatchels is one of the hottest brands around at the present time. Beloved by celebrities, these bags appeal to everyone from students to yummy mummy’s, with men also hooked on the more masculine satchel designs.

Linea – Two New Season Looks
Linea is one of House of Fraser’s most successful lines. Full of classic pieces that successfully fuse fashion and elegance, the collection is one which adds gravitas to your wardrobe, these are pieces that you can wear forever. Neat shifts, tailored jackets and beautifully bright silk shirts and blouses are the order of the day – think the elegance of Kate Middleton, Helen Mirren and Kristen Scott Thomas, rather than the rock n roll edge of Kate Moss. I have been challenged to put together an outfit for Linea, but have decided to show you two looks, one for the workplace and one for a night out. This was difficult…

House of Fraser are currently taping into the trend with crisp blazers from Ralph Lauren, neat shorts from Warehouse and Ted Baker and perfect white loafers from Bertie. Add in some super…

Christmas decorations made for a Fashionista
I’ve just put my tree up..a little earlier than usual, but Joe was insistent and I as he has been a little under the weather, I thought this would be the perfect pick me up. But as I put my tree up, I was struck by how much the decorations reflect my personality. The tree, like the rest of my house, is filled with bags, shoes and dresses – a real fashion obsessives tree. These days stores are just filled with the sorts of tree decorations, advent calendars and gift wrap that are ideal for the fashionista in your life. These are perfect as mini stocking fillers or just gifts…

Treat yourself – Up to 40% off Mary Portas at House of Fraser.
If, like me, you were intrigued by the Mary, Queen of Frocks programme, were dying to try the new range, but found it just a little on the pricey side, then all your Christmas’s may be coming at once. House of Fraser currently have discounts of up to 40% on selected lines, and this includes many of the lustworthy dresses I have been browsing the collection for my top three pieces and did find it difficult to narrow my shopping list down. Mary often uses the sort of slinky jersey that I just love, and has lots of dresses with…wait for it…long sleeves. She also utilises a range of lengths…
