One of the good things about going away at the end of the Summer is picking up the odd really good Summer wear bargain but if you’re anything like me your eye is constantly drawn to the new beautiful and shiny, full priced clothes, bags, shoes and you are left with justifying to yourself your […]
We are as humans apparently creatures of habit, we see ourselves as in control, consciencly making decisions at our own free will, but really we just return to the familiar and our instincts take over. I think that there is no exception when it comes to clothes. Familiarity is comforting and simple, so maybe that […]
As I’ve said many a time, (yawn) I do enjoy the Summer. I think my last ten posts have cemented that for me and my readers, but although it is for the majority all fun and sunshine, the Summer can also stir up the opposite when it comes to perceptions and ideals. This can start […]
I have a penchant for a white cotton top or blouse which you all have heard me pipe on about before but this Summer it’s the white cotton dress that has got me feeling as if I’m strolling to a taverna in Greece, even though right now I couldn’t be further from that. That’s the […]

If you read my post last week on Capturing The Summer, you will be pleased to know I am taking some of my own medicine and Wearing That Dress. The Dress in conversation is this Pineapple Tassel Dress, from And Other Stories, which I picked up on Regents Street a week or so ago. Where […]

A few week after that Sarah, founder of the […]
Summer has arrived, hurrah, the light at the end of the tunnel, the best months of the year are here and finally sunshine and it is still only just June. Now obviously I won’t get too excited, it is the UK after all, we can’t trust it will last, so we just have to act […]
