Friday shopping focus -Designer at Debenhams key sales picks
For my Friday shopping focus this week I thought I would start with a little look at Debenhams, who are holding a special three day sale. Everything across the store and online has some level of discount, making this the perfect weekend to treat yourself, or pick up something that you have needed for a long time (the wants versus the needs!). In particular, you can find some really fantastic offers on new lines from the ‘Designers at Debenhams’ section. This collection has long been a great place to source quality pieces and designs, with designers like Jasper Conran, Betty Jackson, Ben De Lisa and Marios Schwab all producing fabulous…

As we draw to the end of January, all our thoughts turn to February and that most romantic of days. I’m talking of course about Valentine’s Day.

AX Paris Curve Lemon Chiffon Skirt – fruity gorgeousness
When you are a size 16+, you can find yourself limited in the shopping department. Although many stores now have ‘plus size’ ranges, these are often quite limited in scope and choice, to the point that I often find myself mouthing those immortal words ‘not another tunic…’ So I was quite excited last year when AX Paris launched ‘Curve’, a range that would stock fashionable items in sizes 16-26. Curve promised to offer so much more than just leggings and tunics in every shade of black, it promised beautiful maxi dresses perfect for evening occasions, brightly coloured tops and t-shirts that would fit rather than swamp a curvier frame. And…
