Outfit post – January looks.
I generally hate January, it is a dull, miserable, cold and dark month that is such a disappointment after the bright lights and fun of Christmas. And, for me, this January has been no exception to this rule, made even more depressing due to a worrying health scare I have been living with, one now made a little easier due to some pretty drastic tests last week. Thankfully it seems that my worst fear won’t be realised, although I will still need some more tests and appointments in the coming months. But January hasn’t been all doom and gloom. I have hit the sales with some avengence, picking out some…

Fashion Focus – Ankle Boots
In my humble opinion, a good pair of ankle boots, especially one with some sort of heel, is the most versatile footwear in your wardrobe, and one you should not be without when putting together any sort of capsule wardrobe. They can be worn as an everyday staple under jeans and trousers, and, if you opt for leather, they will also be all weather proof. Choose a stylish suede pair, with either a kitten or stiletto heel are perfect with a bodycon or shift dress and add an edge to any outfit. I don’t mind admitting that, when Winter really sets in, I live in ankle boots. Currently my hero…

December looks post
It has been quite a long time since I did a looks post, but December is certainly the busiest and best time when it comes to making the most of your existing wardrobe, and adding a few new pieces (in the form of Christmas gifts) to it. For someone like me, who loves glamour and sequins, faux fur and pretty dresses, I always try to make the most of all those opportunities to get dressed up, and although this is not a comprehensive list of everything I have worn for the festive period, these are some of my favourites. It is also a post that is definitely demarcated by illness.…

But, before you get to that point, it may well be party central. There are work parties, dates with friends, a girls night out, trips to the panto, the theatre, family meals…need I go on. You may well have all your wardrobe sorted for your numerous events and outings, but if you are still looking for something to wear on Christmas day, or New Year’s Eve, this is actually the best time to pick something up, as…

Shopping At Talbots Is A Pleasure
Sometimes shopping can be a nightmare, whether it’s the traffic, the crowds or sales associates who are annoyed when you ask for help. With saving money being a top priority for many retailers, sometimes the quality of the items they sell suffers greatly. It’s pretty easy to notice the button that falls off the day you wore that blouse or the seam in your pants is starting to tear after only wearing it twice. This is the reason why a company like Talbots has been able to last for more than 68 years and still going strong. Their dedication and total commitment to its customers and quality of the products…
