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. They come in a whole host of different guises but the texture and often colour mix makes them perfect …
I don’t want to see my parka anymore – it is high time we moved on from winter coats and thought about lighter layers to see us through the spring. I am a real believer that what we put on top of our outfit is often more important than what’s underneath. The right jacket makes us look more polished, put …
The other day I must have put on and taken off my sweater at least twenty times within the space of an afternoon. Because we are now entering that tricky time of year when your t-shirt just won’t suffice and you need something else to layer over the top. So here are the key styles to see you through until …
Ok there are occasionally upsides to being vertically challenged, namely the odd amazing VAT-less find in the kids’ section – like this Zara Kids Tweed Jacket with Frayed Detail. For £19.99 I am pretty pleased because it does the job of my old black Zara jacket but for the spring and summer. Zara is most definitely the high street home …

I have a leather jacket, a lovely leather jacket that I bought in Paris about seven years ago but it is wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. Why? Because it is collarless and therefore is now so far from right that I might as well be wearing a shell suit jacket (remember those? My mum and I had colour co-ordinating ones. The …
Never mind your spangly ‘going-out’ top, what you need for the party season is a jacket. I am definitely not talking about the top half of your suit – if you wear one, but an LBJ that will see you through a whole host of events. In fact, scrap that, it isn’t even about the party season because let’s face …
