Casual Sunday in a Verily knit dress with a denim jacket. How gorgeous is this necklace? It’s lace! (close up coming soon) I got it off the Etsy Epuu which I wore with my cobalt blue target skirt and cami, and shrug from Jigsaw. Coolish day today and had a networking lunch to attend, so…
Another stinking hot summers day. Meeting with the Nuffnang Bloggerati called for a cool silk Boo Radley dress and jewelled sandals.

One of the experiences that I feel privileged to have been given the opportunity to have whilst here in Dubai, is to visit the showroom and design studio of DAS Collection, the brainchild of Reem & Hind Beljafla. As traditional but fashion forward abaya designers, they have created some incredibly beautiful, hand-made garments that retain…

I have a question which is around knowing which pieces will make a real difference to my wardrobe- most mistakes I make – apart from buying clothes for a fantasy life- are buying ‘sensible” pieces, as in good quality, items that will ” be useful’ but are dull. And realising that it is easier for…
In this short video about one of the Principles of Coordination – Related line – I will explain how to put your outfits together so they are harmonious and pleasing. Here is an example
