Fashion World Review – Lace Skater Dress
It’s the final stretch, I have only 7 days left of being in the flirty thirties and then I officially enter the naughty forties. I have to say it’s not something I entirely relish. I loved my thirties far more than my twenties, it’s the decade that saw me get married, become a mom, reach a pinnacle in one career, and then change it for something entirely different. It saw me continue to travel, interview some famous people, achieve many things from the bucket list and basically have a lot of fabulous times that I will never, ever forget. But life supposedly begins at forty, and so I’m ready to…

Reviewed – Jacques Vert Champagne Lace Dress
There are some dresses that you can wear everyday, for any occasion. But there are also dresses that are something a little bit special. The sort of dresses that make you feel a bit like Duchess Kate. These are the dresses that you wear for very special occasions – for weddings, the races, a garden party at Buckingham Palace, or afternoon tea at one of Birmingham’s swishest restaurants. This description perfectly fits the beautiful dress that Jacques Vert sent me to review – the Champagne lace embellished dress. The champagne lace effect embellished dress is truly exquisite. A shift style dress with layers of scalloped lace, covered with lots of…

Pink and blue floral pleated dress from Yours Clothing
I think it is true that most of us have comfort zones when it comes to clothing.

I always worry about strapless dresses – I have a big bust…

Celebrity get the look featuring the Duchess of Cambridge, Reese Witherspoon and Lucy Watson
It’s Friday, which must mean it is time for another celebrity ‘get the look’ round up. Last week I was sitting on a Welsh beach so I had plenty of time to browse magazines looking at all the latest looks from a whole host of celebrity ladies (and one very cute royal baby.) So here are some of the looks that have been catching the eye during April. This round-up wouldn’t be complete without a look at some of the amazing looks that Duchess Kate has been wearing during the very successful tour of Australia and New Zealand. In this post I’ve featured a few of my particular faves, designer…

Reviewed – Woven Printed dress from Planet
I often wonder whether this blog should really be called ‘another day, another dress’, because despite the fact I do enjoy wearing casual clothes and jeans when shopping or having downtime, whenever I have an occasion of any sort, I dip into the wardrobe and look for one of my dresses. And I think this explains why I get so excited about reviewing dresses, especially when it is for a label I have never worn before. It must be how kids feel at Christmas, or in a toy shop… My latest dress review concerns a label I do have in my wardrobe, but mainly through very good finds from charity…
