A Fantasy Fashion List
It may almost be March (although no one bothered to tell the weather…) but for many of us, the financial hangover from Christmas is still there. Christmas is a very expensive time for people in general, and in my house, it is also the time of Joe’s birthday which makes it even more costly. Shopping treats have been something not on the menu, although I must admit I have enjoyed filling online baskets, only to leave the final checkout. If you are feeling the pinch as we head into Spring, you could look at a bank loan or Lendgreen Installment Loans to tide you over. Alternately, you could look at making…

Spring fashion Ideas
With the Spring Equinox in the Northern hemisphere occurring on Monday (10.28 to be exact), we are now officially in Springtime. Not that you would notice it if you ventured outside over the last few days, we’ve had biting winds, horrible amounts of rain, and we might just be in for some more ‘thunder snow.’ Clearly Spring is here according to the date, but not according to the weather. But that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t start to look at introducing some Spring into your wardrobe. The shops are just full of lovely pieces to buy now and maybe wear later, although you could also cling onto your tights and…

Looking towards Spring and Summer with Bonmarche
It has been the coldest of weeks, but as we celebrate Valentine’s Day, Spring is definitely in the air. Today we have a warmer feel, blue skies, and I’ve put the jeans away and opted for a skirt again. I love the coming of Spring and the effect it has on our wardrobes, with lighter colours and fabrics taking the place of chunky knits and wall to wall jeans and heavy coats. But before we get to the beautiful days, we have a transitional time when the days can still pack a punch when it comes to chills. Bonmarche have started to introduce Spring looks to their collections, and they…

Outfit post – April
Yes, I know it is almost the end of May, but outfit posts are always something that I forget, and then suddenly remember, usually at four in the morning. So here we are looking back on the busy month of April, which started with a mini holiday, and ended with a couple of Theatre press nights. April was a month where the weather was changeable, hence the abundance of long sleeves, dresses which still needed to be teamed with tights, and the need for jackets and my trusty Primark khaki mac, which was first seen last month and has been a fabulous buy (already worn to death, so for £15…

Fashion Picks for Kids for late Spring
It is around this time of the year that I take a look at Joe’s wardrobe, and work out what he needs to his Summer holidays. We are one of those naughty families who take Joe out of school in order to take a family holiday abroad – we couldn’t afford it otherwise, and so need to sort things like shorts, swimwear and t-shirts quite early on, before the stores start getting their Autumn ranges in (ever noticed that this happens every July?). One of the places I always look is House of Fraser. I would rather pay a little more for clothes that fit well and last, than getting…
