Anyone for Tennis? Stylish Inspiration from House of Fraser
Wimbledon fortnight has started, and so for two weeks we all get really interested in tennis, albeit fairly briefly. There’s just something about SW19, with its perfect whites, strawberries and champers, Pimms, and the chance that you might spot a Middleton, that holds us all in thrall. And then, of course, there’s the fashion. Because whether you are attending the tournament, playing on centre court or just watching in your living room, tennis is a seriously stylish sport. House of Fraser are currently taping into the trend with crisp blazers from Ralph Lauren, neat shorts from Warehouse and Ted Baker and perfect white loafers from Bertie. Add in some super…

The return of Paloma Faith
I am so pleased about the return of Paloma Faith, the quirkiest Goddess of music. I’m a huge fan of her music, love her live performances and her mad as a box of frogs persona, and I totally adore her off-the-wall personal style which amazes, amuses and grabs admiration in equal measures. In an era of stylists and perfection, Paloma offers something unique to the world of fashion. In many ways she is the natural heir to Isabella Blow’s throne, at the moment nobody can rock a fascinating (and sometimes bizarre) hat like Paloma can. She also uses the costumes of her previous careers in burlesque and as a magician’s…

I love shopping! There, I’ve said it aloud. If you could list shopping as a profession and a hobby, I most certainly would.

I recently discovered the My Voucher Codes site, which is full of ways to save money on absolutely everything, from fashion to nights out. A very easy to use site, you can find a code that will give you money off, access to the latest sales, and free post and packaging on many online websites.

Style Trend – Summer Sequins
Sequins used to be a trend kept to Christmas parties and Las Vegas showgirls, but these days your wardrobe isn’t complete without a bit of glittering bling in it. But for those who think that sequins should be kept to the party season, and should only be worn in black, think again. These days, sequins in ice cream shades are the perfect addition to your summer wardrobe. Celebrities from Olivia Palermo to the new Carrie Bradshaw, AnnaSophia Robb, have shown that sequins can actually be a very versatile addition to your capsule wardrobe, and High Street stores like French Connection, and online giants like Boohoo.com are all keying into the…
