I know we touched briefly last week on the humble cardi but I thought we could expand further on what to wear with your cardigan. Time was you’d have one over the back of your office chair in case the air con got cranked up too high after lunch. Why is it always after lunch? […]
Welcome to the Warehouse winter edit. Yes, it’s definitely still winter, BUT there is a hint of spring on the horizon, well in the shops at least. It’s definitely too early to be thinking about short sleeves and bare legs though, so for this months Warehouse edit, I’ve gone for a mix of knitwear, coats, […]
I think I get more questions about jeans than any other item of clothing. We all know how difficult it can be to find the perfect pair, and it’s even more difficult to work out which style works for you. Personally, I love all jeans styles, except maybe the low-rise boot cut from the early […]
This post is sponsored by Uniqlo. You probably know by now that it’s one of my favourite high street retailers for excellent basics. The knitwear is top quality at great prices, the puffer jackets are always the ones I turn to for the whole family, and they also do really great ‘sitting about at home, […]
Maybe I should have done this 15-piece winter capsule wardrobe post last month, but we were all caught up in party dresses, gift guides and trying to look like Claudia Winkleman. So here we are, finally, with a little – I like to call it useful – guide to curating a simple winter wardrobe. If […]
I’ve had many a request for this one, and I too was very keen to delve deeper into Claudia Winkleman’s ‘The Traitors’ wardrobe. Firstly though, if you haven’t watched it, you really must. It’s a gripping series based loosely on the old ‘wink murder’/‘murder in the dark’ game, whereby the contestants have to guess who […]
A happy new year to one and all, I know I wasn’t going to say it, but it feels rude not to. I also wasn’t going to do another post so soon after the last sales one, but the husband is away and the teenagers don’t get out of their cesspits until way after lunch […]
Welcome to the bumper annual January sales post, even though, yes, it is still technically December. 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 […]
What to wear at Christmas? Of course the answer is, as ever, anything you damn well please, but we all like to have a few extra ideas so I’m here to facilitate that for you. There’s also more to Christmas than just Dec 25th: there are places to go, people to see, cheese boards to […]
Are you a sorted Susan? or a last minute Linda? If you are the latter, or if there’s that one person you forgot about who’s just popped round to put something under your tree leaving you in a last minute panic to get them a gift in return, then fear not. I have compiled a […]
This post is sponsored by Fortnum & Mason, and nothing says Christmas more than something from Fortnums. It’s not all hampers, you know. (although their hampers ARE excellent). Fortnum’s is one of my top 5 shops of all time ever, but did you know that they have a great selection of gifts available to buy […]
