I love a good stripe. I don’t even know why. I’m not French, or a sailor and have never worked as a chef at Pizza Express. On that though, I do like France. We used to go on Sunsites camping holidays in Brittany when I was younger, abiding memories being those boiled sweets that came […]
I bought myself an expensive handbag for my birthday. (And Christmas. Much as I chastise others for giving me a ‘joint’ present, I don’t give myself that kind of grief.) I had been thinking about it for a while. Regular readers can probably guess what it is – more on that coming up. I used […]
Hello and welcome to the first post of 2022. I thought I’d go straight in with your 15-piece winter capsule wardrobe. Now, I’d love to say I live by this, but if I’m honest, I don’t. BUT I do find myself wearing the same things over and over and these are the building blocks of […]
Welcome to the bumper annual January sales post. If you’ve been around for a while, you will be well aware of my ‘5 rules for shopping the sales’, but for those of you who are new, here they are… My 5 rules when shopping in the sales are to ask yourself these questions: Did you […]
I thought we’d round up another frankly crappy year with a little bit of positive talk. About clothes, obvs, as that’s what I’m here for on a Sunday. Certainly not here to moan about the rest of life right now; let’s face it, we’d be here all day and you’d all leave a little more […]
This post is sponsored by Amazon Fashion. I don’t know about you but, for me, Amazon has been a bit of a last-minute saviour on many occasions with its huge selection of day-to-day items that you regularly run out of. Hello, next-day delivery of cat food, sticky-back plastic and nasal spray, and that was just […]
Are you looking for some Christmas Day outfit ideas? I hope so, as that’s what I’m writing about today. Which clothing camp are you in? Are you gussied up in all your finery and sipping a sweet sherry by the fireside before breakfast is even served? Or are you someone who won’t get out of […]
This post is sponsored by Gap. There’s something about Christmas and the Gap that just somehow go together. I think it might be the adverts they did in years gone by that just made me want to dress head to toe in woollen stripes, or buy the whole family matching lumberjack style pyjamas. Actually I […]
Just a very quick one for a Tuesday, but I noticed that my Ganni cardigan is now 40% off in the Matches Sale, so I thought I’d have a quick whizz through and pick out some more items for you. When I say ‘quick’, I’ve just had to wade through over 8000 items to narrow […]
I’m sure there is a large number of you who are like, ‘Oh, come on love, we all know what to wear with jeans in winter. What next? Telling us how to tie our shoelaces?’ Also, the correct answer to the question is, as ever, wear whatever the hell you like of course, BUT you’d […]
I’m hoping against all hope that this year we might actually get to dress up and go out out during the festive season. Cue the shitty ‘Ebenezer’ variant taking hold and lockdown part 4. NO! It cannot not be, I have dresses I bought last year that still haven’t left the house. This year, I […]
