    Girls Aloud are back!

    Ok – My top five girls aloud songs, in no particular order, are as follows -‘ The Sounds of the Underground’, ‘Love Machine’. ‘The Promise’, ‘Biology’ and ‘The Show’. I am just a massive Girls Aloud fan. Solo, not so much.  I Like the odd Cheryl song, love Nicola and her sense of style, and Kimberly is just so beautiful, but that’s about it.  But together they create unmistakable magic. So I was just so excited yesterday by the news that the girls are reforming for a new album and tour.   The style of the girls who appeared at the press conference yesterday was a far cry from the…

    She’s golden and she’s green…

    Golden Green..title of one of my favourite songs (by The Wonderstuff if you’re wondering…) and also one of my favourite colours. Green is probably the most versatile colours around. Think about it..perfect at Christmas time, where you will colour co-ordinate the tree perfectly. Great in pale and citrus shades in the Summer, and set to be a massive colour in S/S 2012. Bottle green is great for Autumn, and then there are the fantastic jewel shades of jade and teal that look amazing as evening wear and daywear. Next have some amazing pieces from their latest collection in all shades of green. From fabulous dresses to great peg leg trousers,…

Both Vivienne Westwood and Betsey Johnson are at an age when they could relax and put their feet up, instead, at 69 and 68 years old respectively, they are continuing to push fashion boundaries. Here are some of the highlights of their recent collections. Alice in Wonderland meets the Royals! As can be expected of the woman who was at the…

    Fashion moments of 2010 pt.2

    2010 had so many memorable style moments that I couldn’t limit my list to just ten happenings. So here are my next ten moments from the world of fashion and style from what has proved to be a pretty amazing year. Fashion for Relief Haiti This event, organised by Naomi Campbell, saw a whole host of stars taking to the catwalk in order to raise funds to help mother and babies in the Earthquake stricken nation of Haiti. Denise Van Outen, David Walliams, Nicola Roberts and Jo Wood were amongst those who strutted their stuff on the catwalk. My favourite star turns were from the gorgeous Kimberley Walsh from Girls…

    The rise of the redhead.

    Gentlemen might prefer blondes, whilst brunettes are traditionally more sensuous and mysteries, but it is redheads who are having a moment. From Karen Gillan as Dr Who‘s sexiest and most stylish assistant ever, to Nicola Roberts rise to fashionista fame, redheads have been at the forefront of fashion in 2010. Redheads of all colours and tones have been everywhere in 2010. They are on your tv screen, in your iPod and in the pages of your fashion mags.  Some are naturally auburn, others are proudly coiffed out of a bottle, but all have exuded such style and panache that the likes of Rihanna and Cheryl Cole have recently hitched a…
