November Outfits Post #WIWT
November is always a busy month, because it is when the road to Christmas really begins. So this month has been filled with really lovely events, shows and parties which has been a great excuse to get into my second wardrobe. This is one that lives in my son’s room and contains my party wear, the clothes covered in sequins, sparkle and glitter. Because, if you can’t sparkle at this time of year, I’m really not sure when you can. As ever, I have tried to link to pieces that are in shops now, or have featured alternatives in similar styles, cuts and colours. My second wardrobe is one that…

Friday Shopping Special – Monsoon and Accessorize
This Friday I’m bringing a little sunshine into the mix with the fabulous heritage collection from Monsoon. With the store celebrating its 40th birthday (in the year my husband does the same), Monsoon has decided to delve into their illustrious archives to bring us a little bit of seventies boho, global traveller style chic.

I must admit to being a fan of floral prints of all varieties. I love the bright garish flowers that suggest South Sea islands and tropical climes, the soft chintzy rose that are just so English, the lotus…

Friday shopping focus – Monsoon new in.
Monsoon can always be relied upon to produce something a little bit folky, a little bit boho and something eminently wearable, whatever the season. With many of the Christmas sales now well and truly over, or frankly not worth looking at, it is lovely to see some pretty prints, bright colours and great separates in store now. Spring may still be a long way away, but the crisp, clean lines of the Theodora Jacket, and that zesty pop of the Edith cardigan show a way to brighten your wardrobe, if not the actual weather. Let me know what you think of these stunning styles.
