Glastonbury – Will it be Wellies or Havaianas?
The crowds are already gathering, the tents are being pitched, and today, as is usual for Glastonbury in recent years, the rain has fallen. Because it seems that if there is one thing we can rely on in the UK, it is the weather not living up to its side of the bargain. Festivals are always at their best on balmy nights, but this is Britain, so it pays to be prepared. With all that in mind, it seems that when we think of festival footwear, we are split firmly into two camps. For those hot, sun-soaked days, the shoes of choice can be little more than a pair of…

M&Co flash Sale with style inspiration from Kate Moss, Alexa Chung, Millie Mackintosh and Lucy Kite
There is nothing I like better than a flash sale, the sort of surprise events where you really can make some amazing savings, but have to be quick as they only last for a very short time. A really amazing flash sale at the moment is the M&Co event, which is full of really lovely items that range from petites to plus-size, and everything else in between. You can get lots of inspiration for what to buy from the flash sale by taking a look at some of the stylish celebs I’ve featured below.

Take a look and see if you agree. Kate as …Catherine Deneuve With her blonde locks teased and sprayed into a retro bouffant style reminiscent of the 1960s dolly birds, you can’t help but look at Kate and think of…

Kate Middleton tackles Maternity Dressing with Summer Coats
It might just be me, but I think that Kate Middleton has been looking to fashion icons of the past as she moves further into her pregnancy. Her recent passion for shorter length, pastel coloured coats have me thinking back to the early days of Camelot and Jackie Kennedy, a lady who also favoured pastel shades and collarless boxy coats and jackets. Kate couldn’t have chosen a better icon to channel. I think her recent looks, the Tara Jarmon peach coat and dress, and the Emilia Wickstead primrose yellow coat worn the the Buckingham Palace garden party just this week, have been fresh, young and pretty, following on from the…

Dreaming of beautiful houses
I often find myself dreaming about where I would live if I won the lottery. Now, this is a little silly in many ways, not least in that I rarely buy a lottery ticket, let alone win more than £10 (and that gets me excited – a win is a win, after all), but we can all fantasise, and I find most of my dreams concern houses and apartments, and even superyachts that I have seen on TV and films. The country cottage One case in point is my dream of a cottage in the country. I can’t be the only one who browsed cottages and country houses for sale…
