The season of the cold shoulder
One of the key fashion trends of Spring/Summer 2016 has been the bare shouldered look. Whether we are looking at strategic cutouts to give the cold shouldered look, or at full on Brigitte Bardot style, shoulders seem to be fashions new erogenous zone. This is a style that is everywhere, and works for both dresses and tops. Celebrity Inspiration Shoulder baring tops do not conform to one style or trend. They can be worn casually with jeans a la Olivia Palermo, or as a fashion-forward directional look like that worn by Solange. Boho, sexy or worn with dungarees, Bardot styles are possibly the perfect summer top, with a style that…

A little late – March Outfits Post
This is a little later than usual, we are well into April, half way through it in fact, and yet I am only just getting around to doing a March outfit post. The problem has been that I went away for the latter part of March, not coming back until we were well into April, and I am now playing that age old game of catch-up. So, apologies for the lateness. March was a fairly quite month due to the fact that I was struggling health wise for so much of it.

Reviewed – Lavitta Illusion Dress
Every wardrobe should have a printed dress in it. Something that is easy to dress up or dress down, requires little or no adornment, and is easy to just throw on for any occasion.

Review – Mandy’s heaven Silver Grey Silk Floaty Top
Mandy’s Heaven is a new fashion outlet that is aiming to offer women something a little different from the current High Street Offering. With an emphasis on women outside the teenage demographic that fashion is often aimed at, and with a size range that really does incorporate a one size fits all mentally, Mandy’s heaven aims to be inclusive of women that other fashion brands are often guilty of forgetting. I was recently asked if I would like to try out something from the current range of Mandy’s Heaven and I decided to choose the beautiful silver grey silk floaty top. It comes in one size, with a stretchy underlayer…

Lavitta Navy Lace Half Moon Top
Have you ever really liked the design of a dress, but thought, I wish they did that in a top? Well, if you loved the gorgeous dress in my last Lavitta review (see here), and fancied this design as a top, you are in luck. The navy lace half moon top is that dress in top form, and would be a beautiful and versatile addition to your wardrobe. This is a beautiful top, completely lined in the body, and with a lovely white lace detailing over a navy underlayer. The short sleeves are sheer, and the top is stretchy. It is true to size, but I would say that it…
