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 […]
Black Friday, love it or loathe it, but it’s here to stay and we all love a bargain don’t we. I’ve kept it simple again this year with a list of codes and offers. There’s quite a few small brands in there again too, if you don’t recognise them, maybe give them a click just […]
This post is sponsored by Joanie. It’s a brand I’ve been a fan of since they launched back in 2016. Around the same time I started writing this blog. I like that they know what works for them and they do it very well. The range isn’t exhaustive, they stick with classic vintage style designs […]
This post is sponsored by Charlotte Tilbury. I’m pretty sure I don’t have to tell you much about this brand as I am guessing that a lot of you own something from here already. A very quick recap for those who are not familiar: Charlotte Tilbury was (and still is) a world-renowned makeup artist, working […]
Throughout my life I’ve run the gamut of mini skirts. I think it started when I got my first ra-ra skirt at about age eight. I recall it in great detail. It was white with two tiers. Each tier was edged with satin ribbon in red and blue. It was a thing of beauty. From […]
First up, this is never an easy one. especially as I don’t have teenage girls, but I know a few and I still feel like I’m 17 half the time so I’ve gone with what I would still like. Boys, I’m better at as I have 2 teens at home. There’s a few things in […]
It’s always about this time of year that thoughts turn to the C word…. No, not Covid (did that last week), not Christmas (still a week too early for that, although I have put up my garden fairy lights) but COLD. In particular, cold weather coats and, even more specific, the puffy coat. This is […]
Welcome to the Home Gift guide. I’m trying to keep these gift lists simple and easy to negotiate, so I’ve sectioned into price brackets. Hope this is useful and that you get a little bit of present buying inspiration. I will do a fashion gift guide and a teen gift guide over the next few […]
I was going to call this ‘Coats in the Time of Covid’ as I finally succumbed to the dreaded C virus this week, but no-one wants to be reminded of the shit show that’s still ongoing, so I stuck with ‘Get Your Coat’. I’m ‘fine’, thanks for asking. At the time of writing I’m not […]
This post is sponsored by Elemis. Regular readers (and my actual friends) will know that I bang on about this brand quite a lot. With good reason. Elemis has made up 80% of my beauty routine for the past few years. I do mix it up with other products every so often of course, but […]
