Welcome to our little corner of the Internet. Relax and stay a while.
So back to basics this week and I’m carrying on looking at the wardrobe staples you need for the autumn/winter ahead. This time the spotlight is on knitwear. It strikes me that there are a couple of overriding principles which will help your sweater shopping this season and help get you out of the skinny jeans and little sweater combo that …
Slight deviation from the winter staples this week because of the changeable weather that is playing havoc with our wardrobes. Some days it is definitely boots weather and others even socks are too much. So I imagine that, if you are anything like me, you are still wearing your trainers to death. However, what I have noticed from seeing lots of clients over …
In the second of my series on wardrobe staples, this week it’s the turn of the good old winter coat. Gone are the days when a black coat was about all you would buy and there is a whole world of choice out there. Whether you are on a budget or wanting to make an investment; are looking for something …
If it’s a pair of killer heeled boots that you’re after then you’re not going to find them here (well maybe the odd one). This is about boots that you can actually walk in, that flatter the leg and generally do the job. I know the sun is shining and it doesn’t feel remotely like boot weather but if you …
Whether you work in a corporate environment with a traditional dress code, tread the fine line of business casual, or are just after something to throw on and smarten up your denim, then here is the unlikely sounding answer…a tweed jacket.

So with that in mind, it is time to say goodbye to the sandals and start thinking about new season footwear. But before we jump headlong into winter and boots, there is a …
Has fashion’s obsession with black finally come to an end? Well judging by this season’s abundance of rust, caramel, tobacco, tan and even brown tones, this autumn is going to be a warm one. So here are a plethora of options to tempt. I have to say that I won’t be going down the brown corduroy suit or even jacket route …
I read the other day that August is the Sunday of summer and it definitely feels like autumn is nearly here as thoughts are all moving towards back to school, back to work and a new season. So it’s time to start thinking about how to dress for work again now that flippy summer dresses will no longer cut it. …
It is one of the biggest trends out there this autumn and one you simply cannot ignore if you’ve been anywhere near a shop in recent weeks. And as far as I’m concerned I’m all over it with a more is more approach… yup I’m talking animal print – again. Apologies if this is totally not your bag but perhaps …
Be careful what you wish for … now the weather has truly turned, the suffocating heat is a distant memory and it’s been business as usual: grey and rainy. The silver lining though in all this is that there is no reason why we can’t embrace the new season’s collections. The midi train rolls on and this week it’s the turn …
