Introducing my eBay Collections
I have been using eBay as a source of great shopping bargains for more than ten years now. I have found some amazing items over the years, from designer goods to toys for Joe. The eBay site is a veritable treasure trove where you can literally type in any item and find what you are looking for, or you can just browse and bag yourself something you never actually knew you wanted! It is an addictive form of shopping and all from the comfort of your living room. The eBay website has seen lots of developments in recent years, from eBay shops to the High Street style fashion outlet, which…

Style on the Small Screen featuring Carrie Bradshaw, Mad Men and Hayley Atwell
I must admit to being a bit of a telly addict. (I did consider naming this post Telly addicted, but then I couldn’t get thoughts of Noel Edmonds and his interesting jumpers out of my mind, so I thought better about it.) I watch all sorts of programmes, from Eastenders to Scott and Bailey, from Broadchurch to The Village, and I also love quizzes and documentaries too. But the programmes that will always catch my eye will always have an element of style to them. From the sumptuous early shopping experiences of ‘Mr Selfridge’ and ‘The Paradise’, to the stunning Arena documentary series about Norman Parkinson that was shown on…

Evans – My picks from an AMAZING sale
Loving the online sales? The wait until you visit the Evans sale. This one is absolutely amazing with HUGE reductions on so many items, including the glorious Clements Ribeiro collection. This sale will basically sort out your summer wardrobe, and will then also provide you with items that will see you right into the A/W with ease. I couldn’t resist dipping into it, getting the Clements Ribeiro ‘Joan’ dress, which can only have been named for the Christina Hendricks character in Mad Men, and I am sorely tempted by so many other items..but I am trying to be good. So here are my tops picks – but get there quick,…

Christina Hendricks and THAT Westwood dress
It’s not very often you can say that the fabulous Sarah Jessica Parker has been upstaged, but that happened last night. It was the UK Premiere of SJP’S new film ‘I don’t know how she does it?’ and the upstaging was done by Christina Hendricks. Or rather by Christina Hendricks’s breasts! Whilst SJP had opted for an elegant black crocheted sheath dress by Antonio Berardi, Christina went for the all-out bombshell look. In a beautiful raspberry goddess style dress from Vivienne Westwood, she looked like she had been poured into her dress. Unfortunately, some of her had spilled right back out! Let me explain what I mean. Christina is…

Christina Hendricks brings more good news for Curvy girls.
As regular readers of Fashion-Mommy know, I just adore Christina Hendricks. To me, she is just the most beautiful women on TV, with a curvy hourglass figure to die for. But Christina doesn’t always get it right in the fashion stakes. On Mad Men, Janie Bryant styles her character Joan as a regular bombshell, in curve enhancing suits and dresses, but in real life, the thoroughly modern Christina struggles to dress for Hollywood occasions due to designers just not catering for her sort of figure. Recently, Christina was photographed on a beach in a black one-piece swimsuit, which sent the press and blogosphere into heated debates about her body –…
