Really all I want for Christmas is for this godforsaken virus to fuck off. Excuse the language. As that’s not going to happen by Dec 25th, the other thing I would like is for the new garden fence to be fitted and to find someone who can build me a wardrobe in the space where […]
Let’s be honest, we only buy gifts for the dog that are really for us. If I was to buy Thomas Frank his actual favourite things, it would be a block of cheddar, some old recently worn socks and his own portion of a full roast dinner. He’ll no doubt get all that, but I […]
This week I’m giving the people what they want, sorry it took a while to get around the dresses again. It’s always my number 1 most asked for topic, with jeans running in a close 2nd. I’ve not bought many jeans lately, I still stand by my 5 best High Street ones from earlier this […]
Love it or loathe it, Back Friday is here to stay. This year it’s a bit different as there will be no shoving Susan from number 74 out of the way as you grapple for the best bargains on the high street. This year it ALL moves online. Save a thought for Samar my local […]
I know I promised winter dresses this week, but I got swept up in watching the new series of The Crown and, almost solely for my own amusement, I wanted to see if I could find modern day items that are inspired by some of the costumes from the series. Plus I really enjoyed doing […]

First up, don’t turn away if you’re not a fan of the mighty Styles. This isn’t a blog about men’s fashion, or a fan page about his beauty, well, OK, it is kind of that a bit, but I have noticed that a lot of Harry’s recent outfits can be interpreted for us all to […]
I’m on a roll with my gift guides, that’s 2 in 3 days! I have to admit that this one is right up my street. I love gifts for the home but I often feel guilty about buying myself too many throw cushions. Weirdly I don’t feel that way about buying myself endless dresses… What […]
I wasn’t going to do any gift guides this year, but then I thought, why not. It gives me an excuse to peruse the internet for things I might like and look at nice things for a while. Plus I know how helpful it can be to have some recommended products all in one place. […]
Here we go again. Lockdown Loungewear Part 2. The revenge. It’s like Groundhog day, but without Bill Murray, the fun or the Beaver. Was it a Beaver? First time around it was new, there was some hope it might get better when summer came. This time it’s the same sense of dread but colder, darker […]
